Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Original cost = $55
Current price = $40
Decrease in price = 40-55 = -$15
Percentage decrease = [(New price - old price)/ old price] *100
Percentage decrease = (40-55)/55] *100
= -0.272727 *100
= -27.27%
To a whole percentage = 27%
Therefore, the cost of the t-shirt decreased by 27%
1. The best thing to do is to find out what 1% is. 235/100= 2.35
As you're looking for 27%, you then multiply 2.35*27= 63.45
As you're increasing it, you've then got to add this to the original amount.
235+63.45= 298.45
2. Again, find 1%. 24/100= 0.24
0.24*9= 2.16
24+2.16= 26.16
3. Find 1%. 1120/100= 11.2
As you're looking for 13.5%, you then multiply this by 13.5
11.2*13.5= 151.20
As you're subtracting, you then take this away from the original number.
1120-151.20= 968.80
4. This time, you can find 10%.
0.057/10= 0.0057
0.0057*5.5= 0.03135.
You've then got to subtract this as you're decreasing the number.
0.057-0.03135= 0.02565.
Sally's investment is now worth £585. (Find the 30% and add it on) and Susie's investment is now worth £585 (Find the 10% and subtract). They both have the same amount of money.
Hope this helps :)
Answers:
Wood Question: 860 millimeters
Heigh Question: 73 centimeters
Explanations:
Wood Question: You can get this result by doing 7.74/9 because you are dividing 7.74 meters into 9 pieces and you will get 0.86, AKA 86 centimeters. Then, you need to multiply that by 10 to convert it into millimeters and 86(10) is 860.
Height Question: First, you want to do 1.46/2 and you will get 0.73. 0.73 meters is equivalent to 73 centimeters, and since you know Jaxson is two times his sister's height, you know that you can leave it at that, therefore your final answer is 73 centimeters.
Answer: -5
Step-by-step explanation:
You should get negative 5 because first you multiply and add a sign.
So for this question, you needed to add a negative sign because there are 2 negative signs and 1 positive. ( -,-,+) so if you do -1 x5, sinse you used one negative sign for the -1 and a positive sign for 5, you are left with a negative sign. So that is why you need to add a negative sign before our answer 5. on this question.
