Question: An aquarium is on sale for $59.50. If this price represents a 15% discount from the original price, what is the original price?
First, you multiply the sale price and the 15% discount
![$59.50*.15 = [tex]$8.92](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%2459.50%2A.15%20%3D%20%5Btex%5D%248.92)
[/tex] (To change the percent to a decimal, you take out the percentage sign and divide by 100)
Now add $59.50 to $8.92

Answer:
$68.43 (when rounded to the nearest cent)
or
$68 (when rounded to the nearest dollar)
or
$70 (when rounded to the nearest ten dollar)

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
lateral area = 2320 m²
Step-by-step explanation:
The question wants us to calculate the lateral area of a square base pyramid. The square base pyramid has a side of 40 meters.The height is 21 meters.
Half of the square base is 40/2 = 20 meters . With the height it forms a right angle triangle. The hypotenuse side is the slant height of the pyramid.
Using Pythagoras's theorem
c² = a² + b²
c² = 20² + 21²
c² = 400 + 441
c² = 841
square root both sides
c = √841
c = 29 meters
The slant height of the pyramid is 29 meters.
The pyramid has four sided triangle. The lateral area is 4 multiply by the area of one triangle.
area of triangle = 1/2 × base × height
base = 40 meters
height = 29 meters
area = 1/2 × 40 × 29
area = 580
area of one triangle = 580 m²
Lateral area = 4(580)
lateral area = 2320 m²
Only like sedans: 25- 15 = 10
Only like hatchbacks: 40-15 = 25
Like both: 15
Like none of them: 100-10-25-15 = 50
Dislike sedans: 100 - 10-15 = 75
Dislike hatchbacks: 100-25-15 = 60
So dislikes: sedans>hatchbacks
