Answer:(125-81.25)/125 = 0.35 = 35%
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that 7/10 of the cookies are chocolate chip, so that means there are 3/10 of the cookies left.
We now want to find what 3/4 of 3/10 is.
We can do this by multiplying both fractions
3/4x3/10 (we just multiply across) to get 9/40.
We cannot simplify this answer, so our final answer is 9/40 of the cookies are sugar cookies.
Let the speed of the current equal c
and the speed of the boat in still water equal b.
b + c = 1.5 (b - c)
b + c = 1.5b - 1.5c
0.5b = 2.5c
b = 5c
The speed of the current is 1.5 mph so
b = 5 * 1.5 = 7.5 mph
Sqrt(49)*sqrt (-1) -4 = 7i-4
Subtract the fee from the total:
131- 35.50 = 95.50
Now divide that by the price per mile:
95.50/ 0.40 = 238.75
They drove 238.74 miles
