Answer:

First we need to see how many times 65% will make the price go up by 100%. We can see this by dividing 100 by 65. 100 divided by 65 is 1.53846153846. Now we can multiply 40 by 1.53846153846 and see what we get. 40x1.53846153846=$61.5384615384.

Explain why is 1/5 bigger than 0.15

Nitella [24]

1/5 is greater because it equals 0.2

0.2 has an imaginary 0 at the end, to make it 0.20

.20 > 0.15

Therefore, 1/5 is greater than 0.15

Pumps A, B, and C operate at their respective constant rates. Pumps A and B, operating simultaneously, can fill a certain tank i

shepuryov [24]

Answer:D) 1 hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Pump A and B can fill tank in $\frac{6}{5} hr$

Pump A and C can fill tank in $\frac{3}{2} hr$

Pump B and C can fill tank in $2 hr$

Let A be the total hr taken A therefore rate of $A=\frac{1}{A} /hr$

Let B be the total hr taken B therefore rate of $B=\frac{1}{B} /hr$

Let C be the total hr taken C therefore rate of $C=\frac{1}{C} /hr$

$\frac{1}{A}+\frac{1}{B}=\frac{5}{6}$ -----1

$\frac{1}{B}+\frac{1}{C}=\frac{1}{2}$ -----2

$\frac{1}{A}+\frac{1}{C}=\frac{2}{3}$ -----3

Adding 1,2 & 3

$2(\frac{1}{A}+\frac{1}{B}+\frac{1}{C})=\frac{5}{6}+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{2}{3}$

$\frac{1}{A}+\frac{1}{B}+\frac{1}{C}=\frac{2}{2}$

$\frac{1}{A}+\frac{1}{B}+\frac{1}{C}=1$

thus time taken by A,B and C combined is 1 hr

Wilma and Fred rode their bikes toward each other from points on a straight road 32 miles apart. If Fred rode 3 miles per hour f

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

wilma is 22.5 mph

fred is 25.5 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Time:40 minutes, or 2/3 hours

Speed:

Fred:x+3

Wilma: x

Distance:32 miles

2/3(x+x+3)=32

2/3(2x+3)=32

1 1/3x+2=32

4/3x=30

x=22.5

wilma is 22.5 mph

fred is 22.5+3= 25.5 mph
