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

Add and subtract rational numbers without common denominators. Show work! 1. 7/4 - 3/2 - 2/5 = 2. - 5/16 + 3/4 + 1/8 = 3. 3/4 -

alukav5142 [94]

$\dfrac{7}{4} - \dfrac{3}{2} - \dfrac{2}{5}$

$= \dfrac{7 \times 5}{4 \times 5} - \dfrac{3 \times 10}{2 \times 10} - \dfrac{2 \times 4}{5 \times 4}$

$= \dfrac{35}{20} - \dfrac{30}{20} - \dfrac{8}{20}$

$= \dfrac{35-30-8}{20}$

$= \dfrac{3}{20}$

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

$-\dfrac{5}{16} + \dfrac{3}{4} + \dfrac{1}{8}$

$= -\dfrac{5}{16} + \dfrac{3 \times 4}{4 \times 4} + \dfrac{1 \times 2}{8 \times 2}$

$= -\dfrac{5}{16} + \dfrac{12}{16} + \dfrac{2}{16}$

$= \dfrac{-5+ 12 + 2}{16}$

$= \dfrac{9}{16}$

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

$\dfrac{3}{4} - \dfrac{1}{3} - \dfrac{7}{12}$

$= \dfrac{3 \times 3}{4 \times 3} - \dfrac{1 \times 4}{3 \times 4} - \dfrac{7}{12}$

$= \dfrac{9}{12} - \dfrac{4}{12} - \dfrac{7}{12}$

$= \dfrac{9 - 4 - 7}{12}$

$= -\dfrac{2}{12}$

$= -\dfrac{1}{6}$

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

$\dfrac{2}{9} - \dfrac{2}{12} - \dfrac{2}{3}$

$= \dfrac{2}{9} - \dfrac{1}{6} - \dfrac{2}{3}$

$= \dfrac{2 \times 2}{9 \times 2} - \dfrac{1 \times 3}{6 \times 3} - \dfrac{2 \times 6}{3 \times 6}$

$= \dfrac{4}{18} - \dfrac{3}{18} - \dfrac{12}{18}$

$= \dfrac{4 - 3 - 12}{18}$

$= - \dfrac{11}{18}$
