The softball coach raised $1250 last year

Step-by-step explanation:

This year a softball coach raised $1200 for new equipment

That is 4% less than he raised last year

To Solve the problem:

  • Assume that he raised 100% last year
  • Subtract 4% from the 100% to find his raise this year
  • Use the cross multiplication to find his raise last year

∵ The coach raised 100% last year

∵ He raised 4% less this year

∴ He raised this year = 100% - 4% = 96%

∵ He raised this year $1200

→  Last year    :    This year

→  100%           :    96%

→   x                 :    1200

By using the cross multiplication method

∵ x × 96% = 1200 × 100%

- Divide both sides by 96%

∴ x=\frac{(1200)(100)}{(96)}

∴ x = 1250

∵ x represents his raise last year

∴ He raised $1250 last year

The softball coach raised $1250 last year

Which is equivalent to 3 cube root 125
aleksklad [387]
Do you mean 3 \sqrt[3]{125} or \sqrt[3]{125}
remember that \sqrt[n]{x^m}=x^\frac{m}{n}
resolve the \sqrt[3]{125} part first\sqrt[3]{125}=\sqrt[3]{5^3}=5^\frac{3}{3}=5^1=5

so
3 \sqrt[3]{125}=3*5=15 or \sqrt[3]{125} =5not sure which one you mean
