Answer:

<h3>(x - 0.15x) and x(1.00 - 0.15)</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original price of a lawn mower,

If the hardware store is having a 15% off sale on lawn mowers this weekend, the amount discounted is expressed as;

= 15 % of x

= 0.15 of x

= 0.15x

Final sales price = Original price - discounted price;

Final sales price = x - 0.15x

Factor out x;

x - 0.15x = x(1 - 0.15)

Hence the correct equations are (x - 0.15x)  and x(1.00 - 0.15)

The wholesale price for a dozen pairs of socks is $4.30. The retail price for the same dozen pairs of socks is $9.25. What is th
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

the mark up used by the retailer is 115.12% of the wholesale price

Step-by-step explanation:

Mark-up is the percentage increase of the retail price over the wholesale price

Mark-up = (difference between retail and whole sale price / retail price ) x 100

difference between retail and whole sale price = $9.25 - $4.30 = $4.95

(4.95 / 4.3) x 100 = 115.12%.

In May you used 900 ​kilowatt-hours of energy for electricity.
Sloan [31]

Answer:

a) "The total electrical energy use was 3,240,000,000 joules."

b) "The average power use is 1210 watts."

c)

<u>Part 1:</u> "To generate the electricity you​ used, 810 L is needed."

<u>Part 2:</u> "To generate the electricity you​ used, 214.00 gal is needed."

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

1 kilowatt-hours = 3.6x10^6 joules

Converting 900 kilowatt-hours to joules, we have:

900*(3.6*10^6)=3.24*10^9 joules, or

Total Electrical Energy use = 3,240,000,000 joules

"The total electrical energy use was 3,240,000,000 joules."

b)

The month of May has 31 days and 1 day  is 24 hours. So May has:

31*24=744 hours

Now, we divide 900 kW-hr by the number of hours in the month (744 hrs) to get average power use:

\frac{900}{744}=1.21 kW. Since 1000 Watts = 1 kW, we multiply this by 1000 to get the answer in Watts:

1.21 * 1000 = 1210 Watts

"The average power use is 1210 watts."

c)

<u>Part 1:</u>

The conversion efficiency of most generating stations is 33%. So we need to multiply the total electrical energy use (in joules) by a factor of 3 to get the amount of joules required. So:

(3.24 * 10^9)*3 = 9.72 * 10^9 joules

We divide this by 12 million joules to get the number of liters:

\frac{9.72*10^9}{12*10^6}=810

So, 810 liters is needed

"To generate the electricity you​ used, 810 L is needed."

<u>Part 2:</u>

We know that 0.2642 gallons is equal to 1 liters. To get the number of gallons needed, we multiply 810 by 0.2642. So:

810 * 0.2642 = 214.00 gallons

"To generate the electricity you​ used, 214.00 gal is needed."
