lidiya [134]

Answer:

696 miles at the first day, and 174 miles at the second day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Richard and Linda enjoy visiting Hilton Head Island, South Carolina.

The distance from their home to Hilton Head is 870 miles.

So, the drive takes them 2 days.

<u>Richard and Linda travel four times as far the first day as they do the second day.</u>

Question asked:

How many miles do they travel each day?

Solution:

Let Richard and Linda traveled at the first day = $x\ miles$

Then Richard and Linda traveled at the second day will be = $4x\ miles$

Total distance from their home to Hilton Head = 870 miles

Traveled at the first day in miles + Traveled at the second day = 870

$4x+x=870\\ \\ 5x=870\\ \\ Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 5\\ \\ x=174\ miles$

By substituting the value:

Richard and Linda traveled at the first day = $x\ miles$ = 174 miles

Richard and Linda traveled at the second day will be = $4x\ miles$

$=4\times174=696\ miles$

Therefore, they traveled 696 miles at the first day and 174 miles at the second day.

Last year, ginger cost $15 per kilogram. Due to a harvest shortage this year, the price of ginger has to increase by 15% per kil

Anastaziya [24]

<h3>Answer: 17.25 dollars</h3>

=======================================================

Explanation:

15% of 15 = 0.15*15 = 2.25

The cost has increased by $2.25 which means the cost per kilogram is now 15+2.25 = 17.25 dollars

------------

As a slight shortcut, we can multiply the old cost (15) by the multiplier 1.15 to get the same result:

1.15*15 = 17.25

This method allows us to chain together many percentage increases, and it also allows us to include percentage decreases as well. Note how 1.15 is basically the result of 100% + 15% = 1.00+0.15 = 1.15
