The total number of fish bought was 320. And you know she bought two types of fish. The best way to solve this is guess and check. It would be the fastest. So she bought 7 times as many trigger-fish as parrot fish that means the number of trigger-fish bought was 7p. This means 320 = 7p +p. So all you do is take educated guesses for the number of parrot fish and check if it is right. So if she bought 50 parrot fish. 7(50) + 50 = 400. Close but a bit high. Lets keep guessing. 7(35) + 35 = 245. So now we know the answer is between 50 and 35. So lets try 40. 7(40) + 40 =320. That works so we know she bought 40 parrot fish and 280 trigger-fish.
Answer:
Yes, he will
Step-by-step explanation:
398.50 x .15 = 59.775
398.50-59.775=338.725
350>338.725
Answer:
- after the raise, her salary is $1755 per month
- this is a +17% change from her original salary
Step-by-step explanation:
The multiplier of her original salary to her reduced salary is ...
(1 - 10%) = 0.90
The multiplier of her reduced salary after her raise is ...
(1 +30%) = 1.30
The multiplier of her raised salary from her original salary is ...
(0.90)(1.30) = 1.17 = (1 +17%)
Her salary after the 17% raise is ...
1.17·1500/mo = $1755/mo
Answer:
3.7
Step-by-step explanation:
To change a fraction to a decimal, just divide the numerator with the denominator. Instead of placing the remainder over the divisor, continue to solve until it is answered (unless it's a repeating decimal.)
Divide 7 with 10:
7/10 = 0.7
Remember that there is a whole number, 3. Add that to the decimal you have gotten:
3 + 0.7 = 3.7
3.7 is your answer.
