Mathematics
1 answer:
Oxana [17]3 years ago
4 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers are 4x and 7x. According to the question if each number is increased by 20, the ratio becomes 7 : 9.

Then,

( 4x + 20 ) : ( 7x + 20 ) = 7 : 9

9( 4x + 20 ) = 7( 7x + 20 )

9( 4x ) + 9( 20 ) = 7( 7x ) + 7( 20 )

9( 20 ) - 7( 20 ) = 7( 7x ) - 9( 4x )

2( 20 ) = 49x - 36x

40 = 13 x

40 / 13 = x

Therefore, number are :–

4 x = 4( 40 / 13 ) = 160 / 13

7 x = 7( 40 / 13 ) = 280 / 13

Tammy bought a nightstand that was marked down 60% from an original price of $50. If she paid 10% sales tax, what was the total
AURORKA [14]

Answer: the total cost of the nightstand is $22

Step-by-step explanation:

The original price of the night stand is $50. If the original price of the night stand was marked down by 60%, it means that the amount of money by which it was reduced would be

60/100 × 50 = 0.6 × 50 = 30

The new selling price would be

50 - 30 = $20

If she paid 10% sales tax,the amount of tax paid would be

10/100 × 20 = 0.1 × 20 = 2

Therefore, the total cost of the nightstand would be

20 + 2 = $22
