Retail = 64/80%
Retail = 64/.80= $80
Answer: 7 pigeons sitting on the branches, 5 pigeons under the tree
=12 in total
Step-by-step explanation:
Upper branch has x pigeons, lower has y.
Top branch said: "If one of you flies up to us our number will be double yours":
Well, if one of the bottom branch flies up, the top branch will have x+1 birds and the bottom will have (y−1). The top will have double the bottom, so:
x+1=2(y−1)
Top branch said: "If one of us flies down to you, our numbers will be equal":
Now, the top branch will have x−1 and the bottom y+1. The numbers should be equal:
x−1=y+1
Multiply each term by a^2b^2:-
b^2y^2 + a^2x^2 = a^2b^2
subtract a^2x^2 from both sides
b^2y^2 = a^2b^2 - a^2x^2
Now divide both sides by b^2
y^2 = a^2 - a^2x^2 / b^2 = a^2 (1 - x^2/b^2)
take positive square root ( because y > 0)
y = a sqrt(1 - x^2/b^2)
Answer:
$1.80
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3x = 1.2
x = 1.2 / (2/3)
x = 1.2 * (3/2)
x = 1.80
Answer:
$54.26
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert the percentage into a decimal by moving the decimal point 2 places to the left or divide by 100.
This will give you .0825.
Multiply this number by $50 and add it to it
