From a reliable source, the ratio between the width and the length of the tennis court is equal to 5:12. We let x be the common factor of the given ratio such that the width is equal to 5x and the length is equal to 12x. 

The perimeter of the figure is calculated through the equation,
              P = 2L + 2W
where P is the perimeter, L is the length, and W is the width. 

Substituting the derived expressions to the equation above.

             228 = (2)(12x) + 2(5x)
                x = 114/17
The width and length are calculated below.
     Width = (5)(114/17) = 570/17 ft = 33.53 ft
     Length = (12)(114/17) = 1368/17 ft = 80.47 ft

Thus, the dimensions are approximately 33.53 ft and 80.47 ft.

__mm x 9mm x 12mm=756mm
Anna [14]
7 mm x 9mm x 12mm = 756mm


To get this answer you have to multiply 9 and 12 which would be 108. Then you have to divide 108 on both sides to get mm by itself. 756 divided by 108 is 7 which is the answer!

A café or for senior citizens a 15% discount off it's regular price of $8.95 for the dinner buffet. What percent of the regular
denis23 [38]

Answer:

Price for Senior Citizen = $7.61

Percent of the regular price = 85% off original

Step-by-step explanation:

Regular Price is $8.95

Seniors get 15% off of that. So, first we need to find 15% of 8.95 and then subtract it from 8.95.

To get percentage of a number, we first convert the percentage to decimal (by dividing by 100) and then multiply it with the number.

15% = 15/100 = 0.15

Fifteen Percent of 8.95 is:

0.15 * 8.95 = $1.3425

Senior Citizen Price = 8.95 - 1.3425 = $7.6075

Rounded to nearest cent = $7.61

How much is this as a percentage of original?

Simple, it is 15% off of the regular price, so this price is 100 - 15 = 85% of original price
