Hello!

We understand that an 18% discount corresponds to John's savings, which represents 18% of the initial cost amounting to $13.23.

Knowing 18% allows us to find 1% of the total price as well.

So, 18% = $13.23
Dividing both sides by 18 yields

1% = $0.735.
Now, to ascertain the total price equivalent to 100%, we multiply both sides by 100.

This gives us 100% = $73.50.
Consequently, the coat's original price stands at $73.50.

~ Hope this aids you!

A flower vendor sells roses for 50 cents each. How much does she pay per flower is she makes $6.00 on every twenty dollars worth
tester [12383]

A single rose sells for 50 cents, so buying two will cost $1 (50 cents multiplied by 2).

With 2 roses per dollar, spending $20 allows for the purchase of 40 roses.


They make $6 profit on $20 sales, which means they spend $14 on the 40 roses ($20 minus $6).


Dividing $14 by 40 roses gives a cost of $0.35 per rose.

Therefore, the vendor pays 35 cents for each rose.

An electrolyte solution has an average current density of 111 ampere per square decimeter \left( \dfrac{\text{A}}{\text{dm}^2}\r
Svet_ta [12734]
The solution's average current density is 1 ampere per square decimeter.

We need to convert this value to ampere per square meter.

Since 1 decimeter equals \frac{1}{10} meters,
squaring gives us:

1 square decimeter equals \frac{1}{100} square meters.

Hence, the current density now is 1 \frac{A}{dm^{2} } =1 \frac{A}{ \frac{1}{100} m^{2} } =100Am^{-2}.

Therefore, the current density of the electrolyte solution is 100 amperes per square meter.

Anthony is informed that there is a 10% chance that he will be hired by the prestigious Acme corporation. He believes that, give
Zina [12379]

Answer:

8% likelihood that Anthony may soon join the Acme golf team

Step-by-step explanation:

The probabilities are as follows:

10% chance of being hired by the corporation.

If hired, an 80% probability of making the golf team is expected.

Given this information, we can calculate the probability of Anthony soon playing on the Acme golf team as:

80% of 10%

Thus

P = 0.8*0.1 = 0.08

8% chance that Anthony will soon be part of the Acme golf team

A scientist needs 10 liters of a 20% acid solution for an experiment, but she has only a 5% solution and a 40% solution. To the
Svet_ta [12734]
<span>5.7 liters of a 5% solution combined with 4.3 liters of a 40% solution. To begin, define the problem with formulas. x Represents the liters of the 5% solution utilized. 10-x Represents the liters of the 40% solution used. This forms an equation: 5% of x plus 40% of (10-x) equals 20% of 10. 0.05x + 0.40(10-x) = 0.20 * 10 Now, distribute the 0.40 coefficient. 0.05x + 4.0 - 0.40x = 0.20 * 10 Next, combine the terms. 4.0 - 0.35x = 2.0 Add 0.35x to each side. 4.0 = 2.0 + 0.35x Subtract 2 from both sides. 2.0 = 0.35x Lastly, divide both sides by 0.35. 5.7 = x Thus, 5.7 liters of a 5% solution is required. To determine the volume of the 40% solution, subtract from 10. 10.0 - 5.7 = 4.3</span>

Sketch the region bounded by the curves y=3x3, x+y=4, and y=0. Find the coordinates of the centroid.
AnnZ [12381]
The attached graph illustrates the region. The centroid's coordinates are (5/3, 1). The centroid's coordinates are determined by averaging the coordinates of the area; Oₓ = (Aₓ+Bₓ+Cₓ)/3 = (0+1+4)/3 = 5/3 and O(y) = (A(y) + B(y) + C(y)) = (0+3+0)/3=3/3=1.
