Answer:

4 sections can be installed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Fence space for the fence in front of the house = 30 feet

Each fence section measures = 4.5 feet wide

let the numbers of sections installed = x

Then measure of fence covered by the sections = 4.5x feet

At each end of the section a piece of decorative piece measure= 1.75 feet wide

If x sections are installed then number of decorative pieces required will be same as x.

Therefore, length of decorative pieces = 1.75x feet

Now the total length of fence = Length of sections installed + Length of decorative pieces

4.5x + 1.75x = 30

6.25x = 30

x = \frac{30}{6.25}

x = 4.8

Since number of sections can not be in the fraction or decimals so maximum 4 sections can be installed.

Since, each side of the fence should have the 1 3/4 feet wide decorative piece, the width of the fence should be subtracted by 2 pieces (1 3/4 feet)
                                 = 26.5 feet
Then, divide the remaining width by 4.5 feet and the answer is 5.88. Thus, approximately 5 pieces of the 4 1/2 feet should be installed.

A trader made a profit of 24% by selling an article for #372 how much should he have sold it to make a profit of 48%
Ierofanga [76]

Answer: #444

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the original selling price of the article.

When sold for #372 the profit was 24%. Assume the original price is x.

372 = x + 24% * x

372 = 1.24x

x = 372 / 1.24

= #300

If he wanted to make a profit of 48% he should have sold for:

= Original price + (original price * 48%)

= 300 + (300 * 48%)

= #444

Answer:8865=6000(1+\frac{5\times t}{100})

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Liam deposited P=\$\ 6000

Rate of interest is R=5\ \%

If the amount after t years is A=\$\ 8865

Simple interest is given by

S.I.=\dfrac{P\times R\times t}{100}

And amount is

A=P+S.I.

A=P(1+\frac{R\times t}{100})

Substituting values we get

8865=6000(1+\frac{5\times t}{100})

1.4775=1+\frac{5\times t}{100}

0.4775\frac{5\times t}{100}

5t=47.75

t=\frac{47.75}{5}=9.55\ years

Roberto has $200 in spending money. He wants to buy some video games that cost $25.50 each. Write and solve an inequality to fin
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

f(x) = 25.50x      Roberto can buy 7 video games

Step-by-step explanation:

Each game is $25.50 which in math means it has an "x"

So if x=1 then 25.50x says that 1 video game is $25.50

Set up the equation:

200 = 25.50x (divide both sides by 25.50 to isolate the x)

200/25.50 = 7.84

x = 7.84

You can't have 0.84 of a video game, so Roberto can only buy 7 of them.
