Answer:

The selling price of the agenda book is $6.38 to the nearest cent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that the cost price of the agenda book is 100%

∵ The discount is 15%

∵ The selling price = the cost price - discount amount

∴ The selling price = 100% - 15%

→ That means the selling price is 85% of the cost price

∵ The cost price = $7.50

∴ The selling price = 85% × 7.50

→ Change 85% to a number by divide it by 100

∴ The selling price = \frac{85}{100} × 7.50

∴ The selling price = 6.375

→ Round it to the nearest cent (2 d.p)

∴ The selling price = $6.38

∴ The selling price of the agenda book is $6.38 to the nearest cent.

A jar consists of blue, red and green marbles. The probability of each of them is 2/7 , 3/k and 5/2k. Find the value of k.
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

k = 77/10

Step-by-step explanation:

The jar consist of blue, red and green marbles . The probability of each of them can be described as follows.

probability of blue marbles = 2/7

probability of red marbles = 3/k

probability of green marbles = 5/2k

The sum of the individual probability is equals to 1. Therefore,

2/7 + 3/k + 5/2k = 1

collect like terms

(6 + 5)/2k = 1 - 2/7

11/2k =(7 - 2) /7

11/2k = 5/7

cross multiply

10k = 77

divide both sides by 10

k = 77/10

muminat

Answer:

$7.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount spent on the ticket   = $40.75

Number of ticket purchased  = 5

Processing fee per ticket  = $0.90

Unknown:

Cost of each ticket = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we need to find the processing fee for the 5 tickets purchase;

      Processing fee = number ticket x processing fee per ticket

      Processing fee  = 5 x 0.9  = $4.5

Now, the real cost a ticket = $40.75  - $4.5  = $36.25

So, cost per ticket is;

        Cost  = \frac{36.25}{5}   = $7.25

Answer must be in fraction form
Damm [24]

Answer:

-7/18

Step-by-step explanation:

To multiply fractions, you just multiply the top number by the top number and the bottom number by the bottom number. Also, you have to watch the sign.

In this case, we have a positive fraction multiplied by a negative fraction, meaning that our answer must be negative.

So we have- 2x7 / 4x9.

This is simplified to be- 14/36, or 7/18.

However, the answer is actually -7/18, since the number must be negative.

Let me know if this helps.
