Answer:
3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
The coat will cost $221.40. If you move a decimal two spaces to the left from 40% (.40) and multiply it by $369.00, you'll get $147.60. You then subtract $147.60 from $369.00 and get $221.40, the final price of the coat.
Answer: 6
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let x represent the number of plates bought for $6
Let y represent the Total number of plates bought = x + 1
<em>Remember that Mrs. Lim bought another plate for $18</em>
Total cost ÷ Total plates = Average Cost
6x + 18 = 8(x + 1)
6x + 18 = 8x + 8
18 = 2x + 8
10 = 2x
5 = x
y = x + 1
= 5 + 1
= 6

Answer:
12 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let c and h represent the filling times for the cold and hot taps, respectively. When the cold tap is 1/2 open, we presume that means the filling time becomes 2c.
In terms of baths per minute, the relationships are ...
1/c + 1/h = 1/3
1/(2c) +1/h = 1/(3 +1.8) . . . . . 1:48 min:sec is 1.8 minutes
Subtracting the first equation from twice the second, we get ...
2(1/(2c) +1/h) -(1/c +1/h) = 2(1/4.8) -(1/3)
1/h = 2/4.8 -1/3 = 1/12
h = 12
It takes the hot tap 12 minutes to fill the tub alone.
