The price of an antique book is $91,which is two-fifth more then the cost to the book dealer.Find the cost.

Answers

Answer 1
Let the price of book x. That's the cost the book dealer.

He wants to earn some money while selling it, so he listed the book by a new price, 91 $

He added two-fifth (2/5) price to its initial price. In other words, its new price is 40 % more expensive. (2/5 = x /100)

Here is the equation in words,
initial price + 2/5 of the initial price = 91

by equation: x + 2/5 x =91 

multiply both sides by 5, to eliminate the denominator:

5x +2x = 91.5 ; 7x = 455

divide both sides by 7 to simply coefficient of x: x= 65

The answer is 65$.



Answer 2

Answer:

The cost to book dealer is $65

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The price of an antique book is $91.

           The price is two - fifth more than the cost to book dealer.

To Find : Cost.

Solution :

Let the cost to book dealer be x

The price of an antique book is $91.

Two - fifth of the dealer cost  :  [tex]\frac{2}{5}x[/tex]

Since we are given that  price is two - fifth more than the cost to book dealer.

⇒[tex]x+\frac{2}{5}x=91[/tex]

⇒[tex]\frac{7}{5}x=91[/tex]

⇒[tex]x=\frac{91*5}{7}[/tex]

⇒[tex]x=\frac{455}{7}[/tex]

⇒[tex]x=65[/tex]

Hence , The cost to book dealer is $65

A state park has two pools. The olympic size pool holds 8.12 x 105 gallons of water and the smaller pool holds 5.27 x 105 gallons of water. What is the combined capacity of the pools?

Answers

we know that

The combined capacity of the pools is equal to the capacity of the olympic size pool plus the capacity of the smaller pool

so

Capacity of the olympic size pool

[tex]8.12*10^{5}\ gallons[/tex]

Capacity of the smaller pool

[tex]5.27*10^{5}\ gallons[/tex]

Adds the two capacities

[tex]8.12*10^{5}\ gallons+5.27*10^{5}\ gallons=13.39*10^{5}\ gallons[/tex]

[tex]13.39*10^{5}\ gallons=1.339*10^{6}\ gallons[/tex]

therefore

the answer is

[tex]1.339*10^{6}\ gallons[/tex]

The combined capacity of the pools is [tex]\fbox{\begin\\\ 1.339\times 10^{6}\text{ gallons}\\\end{minispace}}[/tex].

Further explanation:

Given:

The capacity of Olympic size pool is [tex]8.12\times 10^{5}[/tex] gallons of water.

The capacity of smaller size pool is [tex]5.27\times 10^{5}[/tex] gallons of water.

Concept used:

The combined capacity of water in the Olympic pools and smaller pool is obtained by the addition of both the capacity of the pools.

In the other words combined capacity of pools is equal to the sum of the capacity of water in Olympic pools and the capacity of water in the smaller pools.

Calculation:

Consider the combined capacity of pool as [tex]C[/tex], the capacity of the Olympic size pools as [tex]X[/tex] and the capacity of smaller size pools as [tex]Y[/tex].

Therefore the combined capacity of the pool is obtained as,

[tex]\fbox{\begin\\\ \math C=X+Y\\\end{minispace}}[/tex]   .....(1)        

Substitute [tex]8.12\times10^{5}[/tex] for [tex]X[/tex] and [tex]5.27\times10^{5}[/tex] for [tex]Y[/tex] in equation (1) to obtain the combined capacity.

[tex]\begin{aligned}C&=(8.12\times10^{5})+(5.27\times10^{5})\\&=(8.12+5.27)\times10^{5}\\&=13.39\times10^{5}\\&=1.339\times10^{6}\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, the combined capacity of the pools is [tex]\fbox{\begin\\\ 1.339\times 10^{6}\text{ gallons}\\\end{minispace}}[/tex].

The height of four boys measured 152.0 cm. 150.75 cm,149.5 cm, and 149.25 cm. Bradley is the tallest, Calvin is taller than Josh, but shorter than Mark. Josh is the shortest. What is Mark's height

Answers

Putting all the heights in order we get:
149.25
149.5
150.75
152.0
Bradley is the tallest, so he is 152.0
Josh is the shortest, so he is 149.25
Calvin is taller than josh, but shorter than mark,
So Calvin is 149.5, making Mark 150.75cm

Answer:

150.75 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given heights,

152.0 cm, 150.75 cm, 149.5 cm, and 149.25,

∵ Calvin is taller than Josh, but shorter than Mark,

The increasing order of heights,

Josh < Calvin < Mark,

Also, Bradley is the tallest,

That is, the height of Bradley is the greater than Josh, Calvin and Mark,

So, the final increasing order of heights,

Josh < Calvin < Mark < Bradley

∵ 149.25 < 149.5 < 150.75 < 152.0

Hence, the height of Mark is 150.75.

First step is to divide the cookies by the required cups of sugar to find out how many cookies 1 cup could make: 

48/3 = 16 

Now, that we know that 1 cup can make 16 cookies, multiply 16 by the 5 cups of sugar she has:

16 x 5 = 80 

That makes #1 B.)

Answers

i believe the x value is 12. so it is 12, 24

Answer:

(12,24)

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

The pool holds 24 gallons.The rate is 2 gallons of water per minute.The line that represents the problem passes through points (0,0) and (1,2).

We can deduct the equation that represents this problem using the point-slope formula

[tex]y-y_{1} =m(x-x_{1} )\\y-2=2(x-1)\\y=2x-2+2\\y=2x[/tex]

So, for [tex]y=24[/tex], we have

[tex]y=2x\\24=2x\\x=\frac{24}{2}\\ x=12[/tex]

Therefore, after 12 minutes there were 24 gallons of water in the pool. The right answer is (12,24).

Drag the numbers to order them from least to greatest.

Least to Greatest: -4 1/2, -1/2, 1/4, 2/3, 2 1/3



Answer:

-4 1/2, -1/2, 1/4, 2/3, 2 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the numbers in the order below;

-1/2, 1/4,2/3,-4 1/2, 2 1/3

Firstly we will convert this fractions to percentage.

For -1/2;

-1/2×100 = -50%

For 1/4;

1/4×100 = 25%

For 2/3;

2/3×100 = 66.7%

For -4 1/2 = -9/2

-9/2×100 = -450%

For 2 1/3 = 7/3

7/3×100 = 233.1%

Ordering the numbers from least to greatest means arranging from lowest to highest(ascending order of magnitude)

During arrangement, the negative values are the least and that come first followed by the positive values. The arrangements gives;

-450%, -50%, 25%, 66.7%, 233.1%

According to their fractions will give us;

-4 1/2, -1/2, 1/4, 2/3, 2 1/3 (From lowest to greatest)

Evaluating an expression just means to replace x by its value and y by its value and do some calculus.

Brittany had 7 rolls of quarters and four extra quarters. She use the equation n = 7q + 4 to n, the number of quarter she had all together. What equation could she use to find q, the number of quarters in each roll?

Answers

She would use n-4=7q to find how many quarters in each roll.

Brittany can use the equation q = (n - 4) / 7 to find the number of quarters in each roll, based on the total number of quarters she has.

To find the equation that Brittany could use to determine the number of quarters in each roll (q), we can rearrange the original equation to solve for q. Given the equation n = 7q + 4, where n represents the total number of quarters she had, we can solve for q as follows:

n - 4 = 7q, by subtracting 4 from both sides of the equation.

Then, we divide both sides by 7 to isolate q:

q = (n - 4) / 7.

This equation can be used by Brittany to determine the number of quarters in each roll based on the total number of quarters she possesses. It essentially divides the total number of quarters minus the extra quarters by the number of rolls to give the quantity of quarters in each roll.

The cubs won 87 games in 2013 and 75 games in 2014. Find the percent decrease?

Answers

To calculate for the percent of decrease:
First: work out the difference between the two numbers that you are given with.

Decrease = Original Number - New Number

Second: divide the decrease by the original number and multiply the answer by 100.
In formula terms it would look like this percent of decrease = Decrease ÷ Original
Number × 100

= (87-75) / 87 x 100

= 12/87 x 100

= 0.137931034 x 100

=13.79%
Final answer:

To find the percent decrease between the number of games won by the Cubs in 2013 and 2014, subtract the two numbers and calculate the percentage.

Explanation:

To find the percent decrease, we need to calculate the difference between the two numbers and then calculate what percentage that difference is of the original number. In this case, the initial number of games won by the Cubs in 2013 was 87, and the number of games won in 2014 was 75. The difference is 87 - 75 = 12. To calculate the percent decrease, divide the difference by the original number and multiply by 100: (12 / 87) * 100 = 13.79%. Therefore, the percent decrease is approximately 13.79%.
