1. First consider the unknown original price as 'x'.

2. Then consider the rate of discount.

A train travels 250 km with a average speed of 75 km/hr and 350 km with 70km/hr and 200 km with average speed of 30km/hr. What w
pentagon [3]

Answer:

53 1/3 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

average speed = (total distance)/(total time)

average speed = distance/time

time * average speed = distance

time = distance/(average speed)

250 km at 75 km/h

distance = 250 km

time = (250 km)/(75 km/h) = 3.33333... hours

350 km at 70 km/h

distance = 350 km

time = (350 km)/(70 km/h) = 5 hours

200 km at 30 km/h

distance = 200 km

time = (200 km)/(30 km/h) = 6.6666...  hour

total distance = 250 km + 350 km + 200 km = 800 km

total time = 3.33333... hours + 5 hours + 6.66666... hours = 15 hours

average speed = (total distance)/(total time)

average speed = (800 km)/(15 hours)

average speed = 53 1/3 km/h

Sandy is working with a carpenter to frame a house. They are using 8-foot-long boards, but each board must be cut to be 7 feet i
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

5/4in

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial length:

1 ft = 12 in

8 ft = 8 * 12 in    

= 96 in

The final length:

7 ft 10 3/4 in = 7 ft + 10 in + 3/4 in

                     = 7 * 12 in + 10 in + 3/4 in                    

                     = 84 in + 10 in + 3/4 in        

                     = 94 in + 3/4 in

The final length:

96 in - 94 in - 3/4 in = 2 in - 3/4 in = 8/4 in - 3/4 in = 5/4 in
