Percent means parts out of 100, remember that
12% off
12% off means 100%-12%=88%
find 88% of that
then take 3% and addd that
3% off of 100=100+3=103% of that
then
so original price=p
find 88% of that then 103% of that
p*0.88*1.03=final cost
p*0.9064=final cost
0.9064p=final cost
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
(5x+131)° and (5x+19)° are supplementary. Therefore, (5x+19)° + (5x+131)° equals to 180°.
Knowing that, we can do the following:
- (5x+19) + (5x+131) = 180
- 5x + 19 + 5x + 131 = 180
- 10x + 140 = 180
- 10x = 40
- <em>x = 4</em>
240÷6=40 so the answer would be "The train is traveling 40 miles per hour."
