42 dollars is 75% so 25% is 14 and 100% is 56

We have an equation: 42/? = 75/100

Cross multiply:
75*? = 42*100
⇒ ? = 42*100/75= 56

The original price of the sweater was $56.

Hope this helps~

Help Me5k = 6k + 4 - 6
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

k = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

5k = 6k + 4 - 6

We can simplify this by solving 4 - 6 (replacing it with -2 !)

5k = 6k - 2

Now we can subtract 5k from both sides.

0 = k - 2

Finally, we can add 2 to both sides. This gets rid of the negative 2 on the right.

2 = k

Just reversing it...

k = 2

Answer: k = 2

The population of the town increased from 175000 to 262500 in a decade. What is the average percent increase of population per y
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

5%

Step-by-step explanation:

As given,

The population of the town increased from 175000 to 262500 in a decade.

⇒ In 10 years , population increased from 175000 to 262500

⇒% increase = \frac{262500 - 175000}{175000}× 100% = \frac{87500}{175000}×100% = 0.5×100% = 50%

Now,

Average % increase = \frac{percent increase}{Total years} = \frac{50}{10}% = 5%

∴ we get

Average percent increase of population per year = 5%
