Answer:
Grace weighed 167 pounds before she started her exercise program.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Weight lost by Grace = 45 pounds
Weight of Grace after exercise weeks = 122 pounds
Let,
x represents the weight of Grace before she started the exercise program.
Loss means subtraction, therefore,
We will subtract the lost weight from original weight.
Original weight - Weight lost = Weight after exercise weeks
Adding 45 on both sides
Grace weighed 167 pounds before she started her exercise program.
If markup is 60% of the cost, you have
... markup = 0.60×cost
... markup/0.60 = cost
... $207.20/0.60 = cost = $345.33
_____
If markup is 60% of the selling price, the other 40% is the cost. So, the cost is 40/60 = 2/3 of the markup.
... cost = (2/3)×markup = (2/3)×$207.20
... cost = $138.13
_____
Markup can be specified in terms of either selling price or cost. Those are the usual reference values; there could be others. When only the percentage is given, you don't have enough information to work the problem. You need to know what it is a percentage of. (Example problems in your text may tell you the expected interpretation.)
Answer:
She should make a rectangle with dimensions 14.4 cm by 4.2 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
- The diagonal of a rectangle is represented by
. - Area of rectangle is = length×width
- Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(length+width).
Assume x be the width of the rectangle.
The length of the rectangle is to be 6 cm more than twice the width.
The length of the rectangle is= (2x+6) cm
Then the diagonal of the rectangle is
cm
According to the problem,
Squaring both sides
⇒5x²+45x-21x-189=0
⇒5x(x+9)-21(x+9)=0
⇒(x+9)(5x-21)=0
⇒x+9=0 or, 5x-21=0
⇒x= -9, 4.2
Since the width of a rectangle can not negative.
So, x=4.2 cm
The width of rectangle is = 4.2 cm
The length of the rectangle is =(2×4.2+6)
=14.4 cm
She should make a rectangle with dimensions 14.4 cm by 4.2 cm.
Answer:
85.5
Step-by-step explanation:
5+((7*23)/2)
first you do 7*23
second you do 161/2
finally you do 80.5 + 5
Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
Going from left to right
We need to find the angle from the first triangle
The sum of the angles of a triangle is 180
80+25+x = 180
Combine like terms
105+ x = 180
Subtract 105 from each side
105-105+x = 180-105
x = 75
Then we have 3 angles that make a straight line and a straight line is 180
x + 50 + y = 180
75+ 50 + y = 180
Combine like terms
125 + y = 180
Subtract 125 from each side
125-125+y = 180-125
y = 55
We now have the triangle on the right
The angles add to 180
55+85+ ? = 180
Combine like terms
140+ ? = 180
Subtract 140 from each side
140+? - 140 = 180-140
? = 40
