A sofa is on sale for $703, which is 26% less than the regular price what is the regular price?

1 answer:

5 0

Answer:

$950

Step-by-step explanation:

26% less than the regular price = 74%

set up the dimensions as:

part/whole = part/whole

$703 goes in part 74% goes in part

703/? = 74%/100%

Then multiply 100 by 703

100 x 703 = 70300

Finally divided by 74

70300 divided by 74 = 950

The regular price = $950

703/950 = 74%/100%

Which weighs more: 16 oz. of soda or a solid pound of gold?

Setler [38]

Answer:

Gold weighs more

Step-by-step explanation:

The fact that they both equal 16 oz confirms the fact that gold weighs more. The reason for this is because even if the mass is the same the weight involves the gravitational pull on the earth meaning gold is greater.

A lighthouse is located on a small island 2 km away from the nearest point P on a straight shoreline and its light makes four re

ddd [48]

Answer:

62.8 km per min

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the diagram of this situation is shown below,

In which $\theta$ is the angle made by light to the straight line joining the lighthouse and P,

∵ Light makes 4 revolutions per minute.

Also, 1 revolution = $2\pi$ radians

So, the change in angle with respect to t ( time ),

$\frac{d\theta}{dt}=8\pi\text{ radians per min}$

Let x be the distance of beam from P,

$\implies \tan \theta = \frac{x}{2}$

Differentiating with respect to x,

$\sec^2 \theta \frac{d\theta}{dt}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{dx}{dt}$

$(1+\tan^2 \theta) (8\pi) = \frac{1}{2}\frac{dx}{dt}$

$(1+\frac{x^2}{2^2})(8\pi) = \frac{1}{2}\frac{dx}{dt}$

If x = 1 km,

$(1+\frac{1}{4})8\pi =\frac{1}{2}\frac{dx}{dt}$

$\frac{5}{4}8\pi = \frac{1}{2}\frac{dx}{dt}$

$\implies \frac{dx}{dt}=\frac{80\pi}{4}= 20\pi\approx 62.8\text{ km per min}$

Hence, the beam of light moving along the shoreline with the speed of 62.8 km per min

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the length of the outline of a shape. To find the perimeter of a rectangle or square you have to add the lengths of all the four sides. x is in this case the length of the rectangle while y is the width of the rectangle.
