Answer:
240 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this we need to write an equation. For this problem let <u>d be the distance traveled</u>. We know that the new train (being much more modern than poor old Thomas who is long retired) can go 20% further. To show this we will take 20% of 200 and then add that to the original distance.
Our equation would look something like this:
d=200+(20%·200)
[one more little note: to find percentage take your percent and convert it into a decimal 20%=0.2)
d=200+(0.2·200)
d=200+40
<u>d=240</u>
Answer:
$46.75
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount the sale item costs now is 0.85($55) = $46.75.
That 85% is equivalent to 0.85.
Are you to combine the answer or are they 2 separate equations you need to solve for y?
<span>Initial number of the people that belong to a certain social website is 412. It is growing at a rate of 5% every month. It means that every month the number of people is growing 1.05 times. We can calculate how many of them will there be in 9 months: 412 * 1.05^9 = 412 * 1.55 = 638.6. When we round to the nearest whole number: there will be 369 members.</span>
Product means to multiply. Integers are whole numbers, so the process would be to multiply the numbers.
