Divide the sale price by the original price:

56 / 89 = 0.7

Multiply by 100:

0.7 x 100 = 70%

The sale price is 70% of the original price, so the discount would be 30% (100-70= 30)

Person A can paint the neighbor's house 5 times as fast as Person B. The year A and B worked together, it
LenKa [72]

Answer:

Person A paints the house in 12 days.

person B paints the house in 60 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

The together rate is the sum of each separate rate.

Person A can paint the neighbor's house 5 times as fast as Person B.

This means that the rate of person A is 1/x, and the rate of person B is 1/5x.

The year A and B worked together, it took them 10 days.

This means that:

\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{5x} = \frac{1}{10}

Multiplying everything by 10x

10 + 2 = x

x = 12

This means that:

Person A paints the house in 12 days.

person B paints the house in 60 days.

Jaden and cadence share a reward of $140 in a ratio of 2/5. what fraction of the total reward does Jaden get? how do you know?
ryzh [129]
So, we need to divide the reward into 5 parts, then award 2 parts to Jaden and 3 parts to Cadence.

$140 / 5 = $28

Jaden  gets   2 * 28  =  $56
Cadence gets 3 * 28 = $84

$56 + $84 =  $140

Find the difference. 4/9-1/3
Iteru [2.4K]
1/9

Find the common denominator, 1/3 can be multiplied to get to ninths. 1/3 is equivalent to 3/9, and so 4/9 minus 3/9 is 1/9.

Let \[f(x) = \frac{3x - 7}{x + 1}.\]find the range of $f$. give your answer as an interval.
ra1l [238]
Hello :
let : y=  \frac{3x-7}{x+1}
calculate : x ......x <span>≠ -1 
</span>y(x+1) = 3x-7
yx+y =3x-7
yx-3x = -y-7
x(y-3) = -7-y
x =  \frac{y+7}{3-y}
the inverse function is : g(x) =  \frac{x+7}{3-x}
domain of : g  is the range of : f
as an interval : ]-∞: 3 <span>[</span>U ]3;+∞[

Please help I don’t wanna add a bunch of points Bc nobody is helping me I’m just wasting them.
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:Cross multiply and solve for x.

x/6 = 5/1.25

let the height of building be h ft

h/6 = 60/15

h = 6(60/15) = 24

the building is 24 ft high

Step-by-step explanation:

Well first let’s covert the ft to in- 5ft is 60 in and 6ft is 72 in. Then we want to set up 2 fractions based on height and shadow, so we have 60/15=x/72 (we put x because that’s what we’re trying to find). Then we do cross multiplication so now we have 15x=4320. We divide 15, so now we have 4320/15=288. So the building is 288 in tall or 24ft tall! Glad to help! :)
