Answer:

  $125

Step-by-step explanation:

With a 20% off coupon, the price you pay is 80% of the marked price. If that amount is $100, you have ...

  $100 = 0.80p

  p = $100/0.80 = $125

The maximum price of the shoes you can buy is $125.

_____

<em>Check</em>

20% of $125 is -.20×$125 = $25. When that is subtracted, the price you pay is ...

  $125 -25 = $100

Answer:

$125

Step-by-step explanation:

let the maximum price be 'x'

x -( \frac{20}{100} \times x) = 100

x - ( \frac{x}{5} ) = 100

\frac{4x}{5}  = 100

4x = 500

x = 125

A storage container is rectangular and has a length of 15ft and a width of 4ft. It will hold 270 cubic feet of materials. What i
KonstantinChe [14]

Volume of a rectangular prism = l × w × h.

In this case,

V = 270 cubic feet

l = 15 feet

w = 4 ft

h = ?

Plug our values into the volume formula.

270 cubic feet = 15 feet × 4 feet × h.

Simplify the right side

270 = 60 × h.

Divide each side by 60.

4.5 = h

The height is 4.5 feet.
