Answer:

180% ; 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Purchase price per coat = 55

Sales price per coat = 99

% of purchase price is sales price :

X% * 55 = 99

(x / 100) * 55 = 99

0.01x * 55 = 99

0.55x = 99

x = 99 / 0.55

x = 180

180% of purchase price

B.)

180% * 45 = 81 per jacket

Number of jackets to sell to make atleast $390 in sales

$390 / $81 = 4.8

Hence, 5 jackets

Since 1 is your initial value you plot a point at (0,1) just like you did , but since your slope (rise/run) is 3, you will go up 3 and over 1, so you will need to graph the point (1,4) instead of (1,-2). Your line will be going up , since a graph is read left to right, you have a positive slope so your line will go up. Hope I helped !

Which of the following is the measure of side a?<br> 23.3<br> 144<br> 8<br> 16
jenyasd209 [6]

Step-by-step explanation:

it is a right-angled triangle, so the side lengths need to fulfill the Pythagoras rule :

c² = a² + b²

where c is the Hypotenuse, the baseline opposite of the 90 degree angle. and a and b (often called legs) are the sides "enclosing" the 90 degree angle.

so, we have

20² = a² + 12²

400 = a² + 144

a² = 256

a = 16

FYI - we could have picked the right answer also by eliminating the wrong given answer options.

as this is a right-angled triangle :

a cannot be longer than the baseline (20).

that eliminates already the first 2 options.

and then look at the picture : a cannot be shorter than b (the other side line (12)).

that eliminates the third option.

A jar contains 5 red marbles, 10 blue marbles, 1 white marble, 6 black marbles, and 3 yellow marbles. Determine the probability
Oliga [24]

Answer:

so if we make a pie chart

there's 25 marbles

it'll be 1/25 or 4% chance

a red marble is 5/ 25 or a 20% chance

say if you replace the white on the chances of you getting red will be 24% or 6/25 chance of getting red
