Answer:

1.28 m

Step-by-step explanation:

48/30 = x/.8

cross multiply

30x = 48(.8)

30x = 38.4

x = 38.4/30

x = 1.28 m

A new pair of shoes is advertised for $110. The sales tax is 7.5%. What is the total cost of the shoes?
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

$118.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Always convert the percentage to a decimal by moving the decimal two points to the right/dividing by 100. So 7.5 % = 0.075

110 x 0.075 = 8.25 (the amount of tax added)

110 + 8.25 = 118.25

You can also multiply 110 by 1.075, where the "1" is the $110 and the ".075" is the tax, and save the step of adding. 110 x 1.075 = 118.25

There is a bag filled with 3 blue and 4 red marbles.
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

24/49

Step-by-step explanation:

The options to get 2 of different color is picking blue then red or red then blue.  


Starting with picking blue then red.

The chance to pull blue first is 3/7.  Then since the marble is replaced the chance to pull red next is 4/7.  

The chance to get those in that specific order is the product of the two fractions.   (3/7) * (4/7) = 12 / 49

The second option of getting red then blue will be the same as above but 4/7 then 3/7 with the same result of 12/49.  

To finish, add the two probabilities together 12/49 + 12/49 = 24/49.
