Answer:

100% - 15 % = 85 %

So, $21.08 represents the 85% sale price

What number represents the other 15% of the original price?

(21.08 x 15) / 85 = 3. 72

$21.08 + $3.72 = $24.80 which is the original price.

You read 50 pages in an hour your sister reads 40 pages in an hour how many more pages did you read than your sister reads in 1/
Elena-2011 [213]

To start to figure this problem out, we can first figure out how many more pages you read in an hour compared to your sister.


50 - 40 = 10, so you read 10 more pages in 1 hour.


Now we have to figure out how much more you would read in 1/2 an hour. Since 1/2 an hour is 1/2 of an hour, we can divide 10 by 2 to figure out how many more pages you read in an hour compared to your sister. 10 divided by 2 is 5, so you read 5 more pages every half hour.

|-3 + 15| what is the sum (answer) ? I think it is 12 but my friend thinks it is 18. Who is right?
Aliun [14]
I do believe it is 12 as well considering the fact that it's negative three and not positive. If it was a positive three then maybe it would be 18.

Jason poured 1 gallon 1 quart of water into an empty 2-gallon bucket. How much more water can be added to reach the bucket's 2-g
Romashka [77]

Answer: 3 quart

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Jason poured 1 gallon 1 quart of water into an empty 2 gallon bucket

1 gallon can be written as 4 quart

So, 2 gallon can be written as 8 quart

Subtract 1 gallon 1 quart(5 quart) from 2 gallon(8 quart) to get the volume added

\Rightarrow 8-5\\\Rightarrow 3\ \text{quart}

So, 3 quart of water must be added to reach 2 gallon capacity.

Divide: (-7x+x^2+15)÷(-3+x)
kakasveta [241]
Since the divisor is in the form (x + #) or (x - #), This can be done by synthetic division.
First put the polynomial ion descending order: x^2 - 7x + 15
Take the coefficients of the terms and follow these steps:

3 |  1 -7  15
         3  -12
___________  Bring down the 1, multiply the 3 by the 1 and place under the
     1  -4    3       -7, then add.
                         Multiply 3 by -4, place under the 15, then add.
       The bottom row is our answer. Since the problem started with a second power, the answer will start with a first power.
The bottom row are the coefficients of the terms and the last number is the remainder.
x - 4 remainder 3 ALSO WRITTEN   x - 4 + 3/(x -3)
