Let's call the unknown number x.
x+ (50% of x) = 135

x + (0.5x) = 135
1.5x = 135
x = 135/1.5
x = 90

Therefore, the number is 90

It is now 3:15 pm. Is it possible to drive 135 miles and arrive before 5:00 pm if ypu drove 55 mph? Explain your answer
Troyanec [42]
Well, how long will it take you to drive 135 miles at 55mph?

at 55 mph, you're doing 55 miles every hour, so we can simply get the quotient of 135/55 and that's how many hours it'll take you to drive 135 miles at that speed.

\bf \cfrac{135}{55}\implies \cfrac{27}{11}\implies 2\frac{5}{11}~hours\implies \textit{about 2hrs, 27 minutes}

so, it takes you that long, however, from 3:15 to 5:00pm there are only 45mins + 60mins or 1hr and 45 minutes, namely 1¾ hr.

so 2hrs and 27 minutes is much later than 1¾ hr, so, no dice, you can't arrive at 5pm, actually you'll arrive around 5:42pm.

Find the measure of a central angle that intercepts an arc of 81.5 cm in a circle whose radius is 16.3 cm.
Paul [167]

Answer:

5 rad

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the length of an arc of circumference is given by the formula:

Arc\,Length=\theta\,*\,radius, where \theta is the subtended angle [in radians] from the circumference's center.

Therefore in this case, you know the arc length (81.5 cm), and the radius (16.3 cm), and can solve for the angle \theta using the above equation as shown below:

Arc\,Length=\theta\,*\,radius\\81.5\,cm = \theta\,*\,16.3\,cm\\\frac{81.5}{16.3} = \theta\\\theta=5\,rad

Basketball shoes are on sale for 22% off. What is the regular price if the sale price is $42?
artcher [175]

Answer:

x =53.85

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original price

If the price is 22% of, you will pay 100% -22% = 78%

x * 78% = 42

Change to decimal form.

78x = 42

Divide each side by .78.

78x/.78 = 42/.78

Rounding to the nearest cent

x =53.85
