Answer:

The 10% off sale will save Melissa <u>$10.49</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The listed price of the camera is $195.99.

The camera is no sale for 10% off and Melissa has a coupon for 5% off the sales tax is 7%.

Now, to find the money Melissa will save of the 10% off sale.

So, to get the price of camera of the 5% off sale:

$(195.99-5\%\ of\ 195.99)$

$=(195.99-\frac{5}{100}\times 195.99)$

$=(195.99-9.80)$

$=186.19$

Now, adding the sales tax:

$186.19+7\%\ of\ 186.19$

$=186.19+\frac{7}{100} \times 186.19$

$=186.19+13.03$

$=199.22$

Thus, the price is $199.22.

Now, to get the price of 10% off sale:

$195.99-10\%\ of\ 195.99$

$=195.99-\frac{10}{100} \times 195.99$

$=176.39$

So, adding sales tax:

$176.39+7\%\ of\ 176.39$

$=176.39+\frac{7}{100} \times 176.39$

$=188.73$

Hence, the price is $188.73.

Now, to get the money 10% off sale will save Melissa:

$199.22-188.73$

$=10.49$

Therefore, the 10% off sale will save Melissa $10.49.

A marine aquarium has a small tank and a large tank, each containing only red and blue fish. In each tank, the ratio of red fish

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Ratio of blue fish in the small tank to the red fish in large tank is 10 : 6279

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of red fish and blue fish in the large tank are x and y respectively.

Similarly ratio of red fish and blue fish in the small tank are x' and y' respectively.

Since in each tank ratio of the red fish to blue fish is 333 : 444

That means x : y = 333 : 444

Or $\frac{x}{y}=\frac{333}{444}$

⇒ $\frac{x}{y}=\frac{3}{4}$

⇒ y = $\frac{4x}{3}$ --------(1)

Similarly x' : y' = 333 : 444

⇒ $\frac{x'}{y'}=\frac{333}{444}$

⇒ $\frac{x'}{y'}=\frac{3}{4}$

⇒ x' = $\frac{3y'}{4}$ ------(2)

Ratio of the fish in large tank to the fish in small tank is 464646 : 555

So (x + y) : (x' + y') = 464646 : 555

$\frac{x+y}{x'+y'}=\frac{464646}{555}$

Now we replace the values of x and y' from equation (1) and equation (2)

$\frac{(x+\frac{4x}{3})}{(\frac{3y'}{4}+y')}=\frac{464646}{555}$

$\frac{\frac{7x}{3}}{\frac{7y'}{4}}=\frac{464646}{555}$

$\frac{4}{3}\times \frac{x}{y'}=\frac{464646}{555}$

$\frac{x}{y'}=\frac{3}{4}\times \frac{464646}{555}$

$\frac{x}{y'}=\frac{232323}{370}$

$\frac{y'}{x}=\frac{370}{232323}$

$\frac{y'}{x}=\frac{10}{6279}$

Therefore, ratio of blue fish in the small tank to the red fish in large tank is 10 : 6279
