Jade buys a blouse and a skirt for 34 of their original price. Jade pays a total of $31.50 for the two items. If the original price of the blouse is $18, what is the original price of the skirt? Enter your answer in the box.

Answers

Answer 1

The original cost of the skirt was $39.71.

This can be found by first calculating what the total cost of the items was originally. Since you spent $31.50 on items at 34% of their original price, the total cost can be found by dividing the new total by the percentage.

$31.50/.34 = $92.65.

Now we need to find the original price of the blouse. We repeat the same action with the $18 and the percentage.

$18/.34 = $52.94.

Now we can subtract the original cost of the blouse from the original cost of both items.

$92.65-$52.94 = $31.71.

Answer 2

Answer:

The original price of the skirt is $24

Step-by-step explanation:

The question must be 3/4 of their original price. So, I will solve this using 3/4 as 34 is unclear and does not suit the question.

Lets assume that the price of the blouse be = x

Lets say the price of the skirt is = y

Now, given is that 3/4 of the price together for both items is $31.5 0

This means,

[tex]\frac{3}{4}(x+y)=31.50[/tex] ..... (1)

The original price of the blouse is $18 so, x= 18 .............(2)

Putting x=18 in equation (1)

[tex]\frac{3}{4}(18+y)=31.50[/tex]

[tex]3(18+y)=31.50*4[/tex]

[tex]3y+54=126[/tex]

[tex]3y=72[/tex]

y=24

Hence, the original price of the skirt is = $24.

Check:

Original price of both items = [tex]18+24=42[/tex]

And 3/4 of 42 is [tex]\frac{3}{4}*42= 31.50[/tex]

So, the correct answer is $24.

Someone please explain how the GCF of x^4 and x^3 equals x^3. This has me stumped.

Answers

GCF is the greatest common factor. its the value of the factors that are common to both the numbers being compared. In other words the product of the factors that are common to both numbers or the greatest factor common to both numbers.
factors of x⁴ = x * x * x * x = (x * x * x) * x
factors of x³ = x * x * x = (x * x * x)
factors common to both are (x * x * x) Therefore GCF is x³

If 10*10 is 100 and 100*100 is 10000 what is 10000*10000???? ; )

Answers

Hi!

You just have to count the zeros..

10*10 (2 zero) = 100
100*100 (4 zero) =10 000
10 000*10 000 (10 zero) = 10 000 000 000

10000 * 10000 is equivalent to 10,000,000

10² is 10 × 10, which equals 100.

10⁴ is 100 × 100, which equals 10,000.

Following this pattern,

we see that large numbers can be simplified using exponents:

The number 10,000 can be written as 10⁴ because:

10 × 10 × 10 × 10 = 10,000

Now, to calculate 10,000 × 10,000:

10,000 is 10⁴, so this is:

(10⁴) × (10⁴) = 10⁸.

So, 10000 * 10000 = 10⁸ = 100,000,000.

So, 10000*10000 is 100,000,000.

What would happen to the buying power of your investment after one year if your rate of return was 3% and the rate of inflation was 3%?

Answers

Purchasing power is the value of a currency expressed in terms of the amount of goods or services that one unit of money can buy. A rate of return is the annual percentage return realized on an investment, which is adjusted for changes in prices due to inflation or other external effects.
Given:
Rate of return = 3%Rate of inflation =3%
Buying Power = 3% - 3% = 0%
Thus, the buying power will remain same for the year.

Answers

First, you want to solve for the equation for this problem, would be:
0.05N + 0.10D = 20.50
While N = The amount of nickels, and D = The amount of dimes.

Since N = 164, and D = 123. It would add up to 287 coins. 164 + 123 = 287.
Now that you have the number for those two variables, solve the equation for when N = 164, and D = 123.
0.05N + 0.10D = 20.50
0.05(164) + 0.10(123) = 20.50
8.2 + 12.3 = 20.50
20.50 = 20.50
So, there is 164 nickels, and 123 dimes for your answer.

Bill takes a loan of 9,000.00 at a 8% simple interrst rate for 6 years a.how much interest will he pay after 2 years? b. how much interest will he pay in total for the loan

help plz

Answers

Final answer:

Bill will pay an interest of $1440 after 2 years and a total interest of $4320 over 6 years.

Explanation:

The subject of your question is related to simple interest calculation. The formula to calculate the simple interest is I = P * R * T, where I is the interest, P is the principal amount (initial loan), R is the annual interest rate in decimal form and T is time in years.

So when you ask 'how much interest will Bill pay after 2 years?', you plug in your values as follows: I = $9000 * 0.08 * 2 which calculates to $1440.

For the total interest Bill will pay over the 6 years, we substitute the values into the formula again but this time T = 6. So, I = $9000 * 0.08 * 6 which calculates to $4320.

Bill will pay $1,440.00 in interest after 2 years and a total of $4,320.00 in interest for the entire loan period of 6 years.

Simple interest can be calculated using the formula Interest = Principal × Rate × Time (I = PRT).

Part A: Interest After 2 Years

The principal amount is $9,000.00, the interest rate is 8%, and the time is 2 years.

Interest = 9,000 × 0.08 × 2 = 1,440

Bill will pay interest of $1,440.00 after two years.

Part B: Total Interest for the Loan

Again, using the same formula but for 6 years:

Interest = 9,000 × 0.08 × 6 = 4,320

Bill will pay a total of $4,320.00 in interest over the entire loan period.

Answers

The radius of the water surface at that point is (3 ft)/(12 ft)*(6 ft) = 1.5 ft, so the surface area is
.. π(1.5 ft)^2 = 2.25π ft^2

The rate of rise is then
.. (10 gal/min)*(77/576 ft^3/gal)/(2.25π ft^2) ≈ 0.18911 ft/min

_____
The rate of change of depth is equal to the rate of change of volume divided by the surface area. Here's how you can get there from derivatives.

V = (1/3)Bh
V' = (1/3)(B'h +Bh')
Here we have B = π(h/2)^2 = (π/4)h^2, so B' = (π/2)h*h'
V' = (1/3)((π/2)*h^2*h' +(π/4)h^2*h')
V' = (π/4)h^2*h'
