Answer:

The original cost is

$385

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data'

cost of bicycle= $138

helmet = $16

Total cost = 138+16= $154

Step two:

let the original cost be x

we are told that 40% of x= 154

hence

40/100*x= 154

0.4x=154

divide both sides by 0.4

x= 154/0.4

x=$385

ll the members of a construction crew work at the same pace. Six of them working together are able to pour foundation in 22 hour
Cloud [144]

Answer:

44 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Decreasing the people by a factor of 2 means we have 3 people

The job takes 6* 22 = 132 people hours

When we decrease the people, it will take more hours

132 people hours = 3 people * t hours

Divide each side by 3

132/3 = 3t/3

44 = t

It will take 44 hours

John types 62 words per minute. Which an expression for the number of words he types in m minutes?
andrezito [222]

Answer:

w = 62m

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to make an expression for the numbers of words (w) John types in m minutes.

We know he types 62 words in 1 minute, so 62 is the coefficient of m.

The dependent variable here is w, so that should on the left of the equal sign.

m, on the other hand, is independent, so that's on the right of the equal sign.

So, the expression is w = 62m.
