Answer: 55%
1. 279 - 180 = 99
2. 99 divided by 180 = 0.55
3. 0.55 x 100 is 55.
55 is the percentage
Answer:
The slope is 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
-1/2x+3/4y=0
To find the slope, we need to get the equation in the form y= mx+b
Add 1/2x to each side
-1/2x+ 1/2 x+3/4y=0+1/2x
3/4 y = 1/2x
Multiply by 4/3 to isolate y
4/3 * 3/4 y = 4/3 * 1/2 x
y = 2/3 x
The slope is 2/3 and the y intercept is 0
The price of the sweater was reduced by 40%
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1; Cost before reduction was $20. The cost after reduction was 12$. Cost reduced= cost before reduction - cost after reduction
Cost reduced= $20 - $12 = $8
Step 2; We must find how much of the cost was reduced from the initial cost i.e. how much $8 is to $20. To do this we must convert it into a percentage. We divide the $8 with the $20 to get a value. This value must be multiplied with a 100 to be converted into a percentage.
Cost by which sweater was reduced=
* 100 = 0.4 * 100 = 40
So the price of the sweater was reduced from $20 to $8 which equates to a reduction in 40%.
A.) First, you find the total sales. $2030 + $1540 + $1800 = $5370. Then, divide each with the total. The answer would be:
Lola: 203/537
Ahmed: 154/537
Tommy: 60/179
b.) Divide 100 by 3 for equal shares. Each person receives $33.3.
