36% in decimal from it .36
172.80 + .36 = 173.16
So original price was 173.16

Answer:

$270

Step-by-step explanation:

So Big G gets a great deal on a sofa...$172.80...the original price has to be higher, right? He (? She?) got 36% off...This means that they DID NOT pay 36%, but they DID pay 64% (bc 36 + 64 = 100%)

SO, you need to change percents to decimals to work with them in an equation. Let p be the original price. Original price times 64% will equal the sale price.

.64p = 172.80

DIVIDE BY .64

p = 270

You can check it using the 36% ---

270 × .36 = 97.2

The discount is $97.20

270 - 97.20 = 172.80✅

The original price for Goran's sofa was $270.00

Two numbers that have a sum of 100 and a diffrence of 6

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

50 + 50 = 100 bus the difference is 0

(50 + 3) + (50 - 3) = 100 and the difference is 6

53 and 47 are the numbers

other way

I. x + y = 100

II. x - y = 6

I + II 2x = 106 --> x = 53

53 + y = 100 --> y = 47

Ricardo borrows $1850 for 8 months at 12% interest.

maria [59]

Answer:

Ricardo will have to pay $1776 at the end of the loan period.

I know this because if you multiply 12% to 1850 you get 222.

Now you multiply 222 to 8 which gives you an answer of 1776.

Hope this helps. :)

Find the surface area of a cylinder to the nearest tenth of a square unit use 3.14 for pi radius is 4.9ft h is 7.8ft

Ipatiy [6.2K]

<h3>The surface area of a cylinder to the nearest tenth is 390.8 square feet</h3>

Solution:

The surface area of cylinder is given as:

$A=2 \pi rh+2 \pi r^2$

Where, r is the radius and h is the height

From given,

r = 4.9 feet

h = 7.8 feet

Substituting the values we get,

$A = 2 \times 3.14 \times 4.9 \times 7.8 + 2 \times 3.14 \times 4.9^2\\\\A = 240.0216+150.7828\\\\A = 390.8044 \approx 390.8$

Thus the surface area of a cylinder to the nearest tenth is 390.8 square feet
