115/100 = 11.50/x

Cross multiply.

115x = 11500
11500/115 = 10.00
Before 15% Tax, it was 10 dollars.

Answer:

{Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday}

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to get the complement of B i.e B'

B' are the set in the Universal set but that are not in B

B' = {Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday}

A= {Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday}

A intersect B ' are the days of the week that are common to both sets;

A intersect B ' = {Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday}

HELP NEEDED!!! WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!!

Answer:

$x(x + 1)$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{2x + 1}{ \frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{x + 1} }$

Make denominators same:

$\frac{2x + 1}{ \frac{x + 1}{x(x + 1)} + \frac{x}{(x + 1)} }$

Add the numerators:

$\frac{2x + 1}{ \frac{x + 1 + x}{x(x + 1)} }$

$\frac{2x + 1}{\frac{2x + 1}{x(x + 1)} }$

Apply the rule:

$\frac{a}{ \frac{b}{c} } = \frac{a \times c}{b}$

Therefore,

$\frac{(2x + 1)\times x(x + 1))}{2x + 1}$

Cancel out common factor of 2x+1:

$x(x + 1)$

During the 2005-2006 term. 184 decisions were announced. This is a 44.6% decrease

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

332.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of decisions made in 1982-1983 be x.

44.6% = 0.446.

This is a decrease, so the number of decisions announced in 2005-2006 is

(1 - 0.446) * x and this = 184.

0.554x = 184

x = 184/0.554

x = 332.
