Answer:

$27

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percent of a number, we can use the formula Px = y.

In this formula, P is the percent we are finding. x and y are the numbers we are given, x being the number we are finding a percentage of and y being the answer.

To substitute a percent into the formula, we have to first convert it into a decimal. Simply remove the % sign and move the decimal point two places to the left. We have 0.55.

Now we can plug in our values.

0.55 · 60 = y

0.55 · 60 = 33

55% of 60 is 33.

The question asks for the price of the item when 55% is taken off of the original price.

So, we have to subtract 33 from 60.

60 - 33 = 27

The sale price, then, is $27.

I hope this helps ^^

Good luck :)

To finance a bridge costing $94,500, the state contributed twice as much as the county and the county contributed twice as much
bearhunter [10]
The city contributed $13,500; the county contributed $27,000; and the state contributed $54,000.

Let x be the amount the city contributes.  Since the county contributes twice as much as the city, the county's amount is 2x.  Since the state contributes twice as much as the county, the state's amount is 2(2x) = 4x.

They total 94,500:
x+2x+4x = 94500
7x = 94500

Divide both sides by 7:
x = 13500
2x = 27000
4x = 54000

0=4t-16t^2 Solve this please
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

\large\boxed{t=0\ \vee\ t=\dfrac{1}{4}}

Step-by-step explanation:

4t-16t^2=0\qquad\text{divide both sides by 4}\\\\\dfrac{4t}{4}-\dfrac{16t^2}{4}=\dfrac{0}{4}\\\\t-4t^2=0\\\\t(1-4t)=0\iff t=0\ \vee\ 1-4t=0\\\\1-4t=0\qquad\text{subtract 1 from both sides}\\\\-4t=-1\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-4)}\\\\t=\dfrac{1}{4}

jamal is making pancakes. He has 6 3/4 cups of batter, but he needs a total of 12 cups. How much more batter does Jamal need?
vampirchik [111]
Jamil has already 6 3/4 cups of butter.
He need 12. SO in order to get the needed butter, we subtract 6 3/4 to 12.

= 12 - 6 3/4
= 11 4/4 - 6 3/4
= 5 1/4

So Jamil needs 5 1/4 cups of butter to achieve the 12 cups.
