Answer:

profit = 129.63% (to the nearest hundredth) as a percent of the price the store paid for the book

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the percentage change formula:

percent change = [ (difference between the initial value and the final value) ÷ initial value] x 100

= [ (6.20 - 2.70) ÷ 2.70 ] x 100

= [ 3.5 ÷ 2.70 ] x 100

= 37/27  x 100

= 129.6296296...

= 129.63% (to the nearest hundredth)

The student-to-faculty ratio at a small collage is 17:3. The total number of students and faculty is 740. How many faculty membe
kozerog [31]

There are 111 faculty members at the college and 629 students at the college.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The student to faculty ratio = 17:3

Total number of 740.

Let,

x be the original number.

Number of students = 17x

Number of faculty = 3x

Number of students + Number of faculty = 740

17x+3x=740\\20x=740

Dividing both sides by 20

\frac{20x}{20}=\frac{740}{20}\\x=37

Number of students = 17x = 17*37 = 629

Number of faculty = 3x = 3*37 = 111

There are 111 faculty members at the college and 629 students at the college.

What two numbers are located 1/2 of a unit from 1/6 on a number line?
ella [17]

Answer:

2/3 and -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find which two numbers on the number line are at a distance of 1/2 from 1/6.

The two numbers that are 1/2 units away from 1/6 will be:

1) \frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{2}\\\\ =\frac{1}{6}+\frac{3}{6}\\\\ =\frac{4}{6}\\\\=\frac{2}{3}

2) \frac{1}{6}-\frac{1}{2}\\\\ =\frac{1}{6}-\frac{3}{6}\\\\ =\frac{-2}{6}\\\\ =\frac{-1}{3}

Thus the two numbers are: 2/3 and -1/3
