1. We assume, that the number 53.55 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task. 
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for. 
3. If 53.55 is 100%, so we can write it down as 53.55=100%. 
4. We know, that x is 15% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=15%. 
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 53.55=100%
2) x=15%
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
53.55/x=100%/15%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 15% of 53.55

53.55/x=100/15
(53.55/x)*x=(100/15)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
53.55=6.6666666666667*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (6.6666666666667) to get x
53.55/6.6666666666667=x 
8.0325=x 
x=8.0325
*******
now we have: 
15% of 53.55=8.0325.
the total price was 53.55+8.0325=61.5825 the price before the discount
61.5825 - 38 = 23.5825 ~ 23.58

Answer:

£25

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the amount that a discounted purchase cost before the discount was applied.

From the question, we were made to know that 53.55 included the discount. Now if 15% was the price of the discount, this means what she paid was 85% and this is equivalent to the value 53.55

since we do not know the total price before the discount, let’s call that x.

This means that;

85/100 * x = 53.55

85x = 53.55 * 100

85x = 5355

x = 5355/85

x = £63

Now we were made to know that the trainers were priced at £38 before the discount, the price of the watch before the discount is thus £63 - £38 = $25

There are 11 trains containing giraffes and 7 trains containing rabbits.

<h3>Equation</h3>

An equation is an expression used to show the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Let x represent the number of train with giraffes and y represent the number of train with rabbits.

Hence:

25x = 40y

25x - 40y = 0    (1)

Also:

25x + 40y > 500   (2)

From both equations:

A possible solution is x = 11, y = 7

There are 11 trains containing giraffes and 7 trains containing rabbits.

The volume of the slice is 40 in³. The volume of the remaining cake would be 197.014 in³.

<h3>What is a regular hexagon?</h3>

A regular hexagon can be defined as a closed shape consisting of six equal sides and six equal angles.

Here we have two regular hexagons

one top small hexagon cake with a side of length = 3 in, height = 3 in

One big hexagon cake, side of length = 4 in, Height = 4 in

A slice cut such that it removes a side segment is equivalent to an equilateral triangle with a side

length = length of hexagon side

The length of the side of the removed equilateral triangle side

Top small cake slice triangle side = 3 in.

Area of surface of small slice = 1/2 x b x h = 1/2 x 3 x 3 x sin 60

                                                = 9√3/ 4

The volume of a small slice  

=  Area of surface small slice × Height of small cake

= 9√3/ 4  x 3

= 11. 69

Big cake slice triangle side = 4 in.

Area of the surface of big slice = 1/2 x 4 x 4 x sin 60

                                                    = 4√3

The volume of big slice =  Area of the surface of big slice × Height of big slice

= 16√3

= 28

The total volume of slice = Volume of small slice + Volume of big slice

Total volume of slice = 12 in³ +28 in³ = 40 in³

For the small cake,

the remaining volume = 5 x 11.69 = 58.45

For the big cake

the remaining volume = 5 x 27.71 = 138.56

Total volume remaining cake

= 58.45 in³ + 138.56 in³ = 197.014 in³

a = Length of side

h = Height of hexagon

The volume of each slice is,

= a^2 x h x √3/4

For the small cake, we have

a = 3 in.

h = 3 in.

The volume of small slice = a^2 x h x √3/4

                                   = 9 x 3 x √3/4

                                   = 27√3/4

For the big cake, we have

a = 4 in.

h = 4 in.

Volume of big slice =  a^2 x h x √3/4

                                = 16 √3

The total volume of slice = Volume of small slice + Volume of a big slice

Total volume of slice = 27√3/4 + 16 √3

The total volume of the slice = 39404 in³.

Sheila, janice, and katen, working together at the same rate, can complete a job in 3 1/3 days. Working at the same rate, how mu
pychu [463]

Answer:

Janice and Karen could do in 1 day:

  • <u>20% of the job</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

To identify how much of the job could janice and caren do in 1 day, first, we must find how much of the job make just 1 person at the same rate:

If three persons make a job in 3 1/3 days, 1 person make the job in x:

  • 3 persons ⇒ 3 1/3 days or 10/3 days
  • 1 person ⇒ x

Then:

  • x=\frac{1 person*\frac{10}{3}days }{3 persons} (we cancel the unit "persons")
  • x=\frac{\frac{10}{3}days }{3}
  • x = 10 days

Just a person would need 10 days to complete a job, now, we're gonna divide this value in 2 to obtain the time that need two persons to complete a job:

  • Time to complete a job between 2 persons = \frac{10}{2}days
  • Time to complete a job between 2 persons = 5 days

How two persons need 5 days to complete a job (in this case, the two persons are Janice and Karen), we can make a simple rule of three to obtain the percentage made in 1 day:

  • 5 days ⇒ 100% of a job
  • 1 day ⇒ x

Then:

  • x=\frac{1*100}{5} (you can use the % if you want, the result is the same)
  • x=\frac{100}{5}
  • x=20

As you can see, <u><em>Janice and Karen just in a day could do 20% of the job</em></u>.
