Answer:
$199.50
Step-by-step explanation:
10% discount of $34 = 10/100*34 = $3.40
so, a single shirt costs $34-$3.40 = $30.60
half off = 50% discount of $31 = 50/100*31 = $15.50
so, a single cap costs $31-$15.50 = $15.50
so, 5 shirts and 3 caps cost now
5*$30.60 + 3*$15.50 = $153 + $46.50 = $199.50
but careful - can this be a trick question ?
the phrasing of the problem description can also suggest that the discounts are only listed to confuse us and are already included in the mentioned prices ("worth" $34 - what does that mean ? because including the discounts they are currently "worth" their prices).
then it would just plainly be
5*$34 + 3*$31 = $170 + $93 = $263
Let x + 1.5 be length of segment above left hand
Let 2x be length of segment below left hand
15 = x + 1.5 + 2x
15 = 3x + 1.5
15 - 1.5 = 3x
13.5 = 3x
13.5/3= 3x/3
4.5 = x
x = 4.5
This is the length above the left hand.
2x must be then 4.5*2 = 9 foot
This is the length below the left hand.
Checking
4.5 + 9 + 1.5 = 15 foot
Adding length below left hand & length of left hand to right hand:
9 + 1.5 = 10.5
The right hand is hence 10.5 foot far up the pole.
The answer should be 38/7
The reason you can only compare the numerators is because the denominators are the same- leaving little comparison to really make. The numerators will determine which fraction is greater or smaller.
Ex. 4/5 or 3/5
which is greater? Which is smaller?
It can be seen that the denominators are the same, now finally comparing the numerators will answer both questions.
