valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

Approximately 54.54% of race happened in the first week.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Length of bike race in three weeks = 2,200 miles

Race covered in first week = 1,200 miles

Percentage of race covered in first week =

$=\dfrac{\text{Race covered in first week}}{\text{Total length of race}}\times 100\%\\\\=\dfrac{1200}{2200}\times 100\%\\\\=54.54\%$

Thus, approximately 54.54% of race happened in the first week.

Jess takes a board that is 50 inches long and cuts it into two pieces, one of which is 16 inches longer than the other. How long

sergey [27]

Let x = the length of the shorter piece
x+x+16=50in
2x=50-16
2x=34
x=17

Then

x+16=17+16
x+16=33
Subtract 16 from both sides

The lengths are 17in and 33in

Today only, a desk is being sold at a 33% discount. The sale price is $268. What was the price yesterday?

Serga [27]

Discount percent = 33%

Sale price = $268

Let the original price be $x.

So,

$x - (33\% \: of \: x) = 268 \\ = > x - ( \frac{33}{100} \times x) = 268 \\ = > x - ( \frac{33x}{100}) = 268 \\ = > \frac{100x}{100} - \frac{33x}{100} = 268 \\ = > \frac{(100x - 33x)}{100} = 268 \\ = > \frac{67x}{100} = 268 \\ = > 67x = 268 \times 100 \\ = > 67x = 26800 \\ = > x = \frac{26800}{67} \\ = > x = 400$

So, yesterday the price was $400.
