If 25% of an item is $17.00 what is the original price?

Mathematics

ch4aika [34]3 years ago

Answer:

The original item price is $68.00

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem use the inverse of percentages.

Normally,

25% = 25/100 = 1/4

So instead, use

100/25 , which = 4

4 x $17.00 = $68.00

To check, $68.00 x 25% = $17.00

Answer:

68

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original price

The original price times the percent = 17

x*25% = 17

Change to decimal form

x*.25 = 17

Divide each side by .25

.25x/.25=17/.25

x =68

Find the value of each variable.
Harrizon [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

b is per the identity of angles on parallel lines when intersected by one inclined line the same as the 40° angle.

so,

b = 40°

due to the parallel nature of the 2 lines there is a symmetry effect for such shapes inscribed a circle. the upper and the lower triangle must be similar. and when applying a vertical line through the central crossing point, everything to the left is mirrored by everything on the right.

so, angle c must be equal to angle b.

c = 40°

and as the sum of all angles in a triangle is always 180°, d is then

d = 180 - 40 - 40 = 100°

the interior angle of the arc angle a is the supplementary angle of d (together they are 180°), because together with d they cover the full down side of the top-left to bottom-right line.

interior angle to a = 180 - 100 = 80°

due to the symmetry again, the arc angle opposite to a is the same as a.

as we know, the interior angle to a pair of opposing arc angles is the mean value of the 2 angles.

so, we have

(a + a)/2 = 80

2a/2 = 80

a = 80°

there might (and actually should) be some more direct approaches for "a" out of the other pieces of information, but that was the most straight one right out of my mind, and I don't spend time on finding additional shortcuts, when I have already a working approach.

Solve the equation for y.<br> 3x + 7y= 29
Oxana [17]

Answer:

y = \frac{29-3x}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 7y = 29 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

7y = 29 - 3x ( divide both sides by 7 )

y = \frac{29-3x}{7}
