If 15% of an item is $18 what is the original price??

1 answer:

6 0

Answer:

If you were trying to find 15% of 18, that would be multiplying a decimal, but, you need to mutliply a whole number. $120 should be your answer. People, correct me if I'm wrong (seriously though, not 100% sure if this is correct).

Step-by-step explanation:

18 = 15% x Y

18 = 15/100 x Y

Y = 18 × 100/15

Y = 18 × 100 ÷ 15

Y = 120

cylinder with height 9 inches and radius is filled with water, it can fill a certain pitcher. How many of these pitchers can a c

larisa [96]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The 1st cylinder used to fill the pitcher has:

height:

h = 9 in

radius:

r = r

The volume of a cylinder is given by:

$V=\pi r^2 h$

Therefore, the volume of the 1st cylinder is

$V=\pi r^2 9=9\pi r^2$

We are told that the water inside this cylinder can fill a certain pitcher, so this is also the volume of the pitcher.

Then, we have a second cylinder, which has height

h = 9 in

and radius

r' = 2r

So the volume of this cylinder is

$V'=\pi r'^2 h = \pi (2r)^2 9 =9\pi (4r^2)=36\pi r^2$

This means that the number of pitchers that can be filled by this 2nd cylinder is

$n=\frac{V'}{V}=\frac{36\pi r^2}{9\pi r^2}=4$
