Let the cost of the shirt be y and the price by the which the shirt is sold is 2y. This means that at 15% discount, the shirt is sold at 1.7 of its original cost.

I need help, I dont know how to convert ratios into decimals and percentages [EX: write the ratio 5 to 8 in a decimal/percent]​
Anon25 [30]
Fractions are just unsimplified numbers. For example 5/8 is just 5 divided by 8 so 0.625. To find the percent from that you move the decimal two places to the right making it 62.5%. Hope this helps!

Two trains start from Fort Worth traveling at the same speed. The trip for Train W takes 20 hours, while the trip for Train Z ta
MrMuchimi

Answer:

The equation that best models this situation is :

b. \frac{x}{20}=\frac{x+400}{25}

Distance traveled by Train W = 1600 miles

Distance traveled by Train Z = 2,000 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Time taken for Train W to complete a trip = 20 hours

Time taken for Train Z to complete a trip = 25 hours

The city Train Z is traveling to is 400 miles farther away than the city Train W is traveling to.

both trains have same speeds and start from same location.

To find the distance in total each train travels.

Solution:

<em>Let length of the trip of Train W be </em>= x miles

Speed of Train W can be given as :

⇒ \frac{Distance}{Time}

⇒ \frac{x}{20}\ miles/h

<em>So, the length of the trip of Train Z will be</em> = (x+400) miles

Speed of Train Z can be given as :

⇒ \frac{Distance}{Time}

⇒ \frac{x+400}{25}\ miles/h

Since the speeds are same, so the equation to find x can be given as:

⇒ \frac{x}{20}=\frac{x+400}{25}

Solving for x

Multiplying both sides by 100 to remove fractions.

⇒ 100\times \frac{x}{20}=100\times \frac{x+400}{25}

⇒ 5x=4(x+400)

Using distribution.

⇒ 5x=4x+1600

Subtracting both sides by 4x

⇒ 5x-4x=4x-4x+1600

⇒ x=1600

Thus, Distance traveled by Train W = 1600 miles

Distance traveled by Train Z = 1600+400 = 2,000 miles

What is the equation of the line containing the points (3, 1), (9, 3), and (27, 9)?
lutik1710 [3]

From the given points that are (3,1),(9,3),(27,9), we can say that x is three times of y. That is

x= 3y

And we need to solve for y. For that, we need to get rid of 3 from the right side by dividing both sides by 3 . And on doing so , we will get

\frac{x}{3} = \frac{3y}{3}

\frac{x}{3}=y

or

y=\frac{x}{3}

IgorC [24]

Answer:

A = -2.2

B =  -1.7

C =  1.87

D =  19.97

Step-by-step explanation:

A = 7.4 - 9.6 = -2.2

B = -2.2 + 0.5 = -1.7

C = -1.1(-1.7) = 1.87

D = 18.1 + 1.87 = 19.97
