Answer:
1010
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a whole class of questions that rely on the method to this one.
First add up what you know
1270 + 1150 + 870 + 1450 = 4740
Now add on the 5th month (which you don't know. Call it x)
4740 + x
Divide by 5
(4740 + x)/5 = 1150 and that is your equation
Solution
Multiply both sides by 5
5*(4740 + x) / 5 = 1150 * 5
4740 + x = 5750
Subtract 4740 from both sides
4740 - 4740 + x = 5750 - 4740
x = 1010
Which seems kind of low, but that's what the numbers come to.
Answer:
50% profit
Step-by-step explanation:
750-500 is 250 so that is a 50% profit/markup
<em>Paco could buy 1/2 a yard, 5/8 yard, 3/4 yard, 7/8 yard, 1 yard, 1 1/8, so fourth since these fractions are all greater than 1. </em>
Answer:
C, at least that's what I think.
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
It turns out from similar triangles, that 7/BD = BD / 18. Use triangles ABD and BDC to show this relationship. Solving this equation will give you BD
BD^2 = 7*18
BD^2 = 126 Just leave it in this form. Do your rounding at the end.
Because triangle BDC is a right angle triangle, use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for m
m^2 = BD^2 + 7^2
m^2 = 126 + 49
m^2 = 175 Take the square root of both sides.
sqrt(m^2) = sqrt(175)
m = 13.22
so the answer is D
