Answer:

3/4 times 18= 13.5

31.5-13.5=18  

It cost 18 dollars for the skirt with a discount.

It cost 13.5 for the blouse as opposed to the original price of 18 dollars.

18(skirt)+13.5(blouse)=31.5

If you set up a proportion to find the original price of the skirt you will get the answer.  

18/x=75/100

75x=18 times 100

75x=1800

75x/75=1800/75

x=24  

The original price of the skirt is 24 dollars.

0.016 as a fraction in simplest form
puteri [66]
0.016 as a fraction is 16/1000 and in simplest form it is 2/125.

An easy way to figure out the fraction of a decimal is by the decimal places. As we can see, there are four numbers in our decimal (0.016). 

The first decimal place = ones 
The second decimal place = tenths
The third decimal place = hundredths 
The fourth decimal place = thousandths

We stop at the thousandths place, so basically, take 16 and put it over 1000, which looks like 16/1000.

The human eye contains approximately 9.1 x 10^7 rod cells and 4.5 x 10^6 cone cells . Samuel subtracts 9.1-4.5 and says there ar
Paul [167]

Samuel is incorrect because he didn't subtract the power of the numbers.

<h3>How many more rod cells are there?</h3>

The number of rod and cone cells in the human eye is written in scientific notation. Scientific notation is used in expressing large numbers in smaller numbers. To write a number in scientific notation, the number is written as a decimal number, between 1 and 10 and multiplied by a power of 10. For example, 1 x 10² is equivalent to 100

(9.1 x 10^7) - (4.5 x 10^6)

= (9.1 - 4.5) x 10^(7 - 6)

4.6 x 10 = 46
