Answer:

The sale price of the item is $ 255

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the amount of discount ( d ) offered by the store, we calculate

15 % of the sale price. Thus:

d = 300 × 15 ÷ 100

d = 3 00 × 15 ÷ 1 00 (take the 2 zeros out on both the hundred and 3 hundred)

d = 3 × 15

d = 45

If the amount of discount is known, the sale price ( s ) of the item will be the regular price minus the discount. Hence:

s = 300 − 45

s = 255

Hope this helps you! If not sorry!

It costs $164.34 to rent a standard-size car for 5 days. Find the price per day to rent this car.

g100num [7]

164.34 divided by the amount of days, in this case 5.
164.34 divided by 5 =32.868.

That answer can be rounded to $33 or $32.87. I would go with the first one if asked to round.

A new Outdoor recreation Center is being built in Erie. The perimeter of the rectangular playing field is 456 yards. The length

MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

$P= 456 = 2X +2Y$ (1)

And for this case we know the following condition "The length of the field is 7 yards less than quadruple the width" and we can write this :

$X = 4Y -7$

And replacing into equation (1) we got:

$456= 2(4Y-7) +2Y$

$456 = 8Y -14 +2Y$

$456 = 10Y-14$

Adding 14 in both sides we got:

$456+14 = 10Y$

And dividing 10 on both sides we got:

$Y=\frac{470}{10}= 47$

And then we can solve for X and we got:

$X= 4*47 -7=181$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we can set up the following notation:

X represent the lenght

Y represent the width

And since we have a rectangular playing filed the perimeter is given by:

$P= 456 = 2X +2Y$ (1)

And for this case we know the following condition "The length of the field is 7 yards less than quadruple the width" and we can write this :

$X = 4Y -7$

And replacing into equation (1) we got:

$456= 2(4Y-7) +2Y$

$456 = 8Y -14 +2Y$

$456 = 10Y-14$

Adding 14 in both sides we got:

$456+14 = 10Y$

And dividing 10 on both sides we got:

$Y=\frac{470}{10}= 47$

And then we can solve for X and we got:

$X= 4*47 -7=181$
