A lawnmower that regularly sells for $150 is on sale for $120. By what percentage was the price decreased?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the difference of both prices.

150 - 120 = 30

Calculate the ratio of the decrease in price to the original price.

30/150 = 0.2

Multiply the decimal by 100 to get your percentage.

0.2(100) = 20

A) 20/77

B) 30/121

The answer would be A)20/77.
The reason is that without replacement it would go (10/22)*(12/21)=0.2597
You can do the easy route I did then do (20/77) which would also give you 0.2597.

The answer is exactly A there is not other choises make sense

A circle has a circumference of 16π yards. Find the area in terms of π (pi).

Answers

64 pi. Since the formula for the circumference of a cirlcle is: pi x diameter. The diameter of the circle would be 16. And the radius of that would be 8 since its half of 16. The formula to find the area is: pi x radius squared. So 8 squared pi would be 64 pi.

64 pi is the answer if I’m correct

The Equation you are going to use: P(event)=number of favorable outcomes/total number of possible outcomes

1. Equal to
The probability of rolling a 4 is 1/6. There is 1 favorable outcome and 6 possible outcomes. The frequency of rolling a 4 after 90 times is 15/90 which is equal to 1/6. Therefore equal to.

2. Greater than
The probability of rolling a number less than 4 is 3/6 or 1/2. After 90 times, the outcome was 46/90 which simplified is 23/45. Half of 45 is 22.5 and 23 > 22.5.

3. Less than
The probability of rolling a multiple of 3 is 2/6 or 1/3. After rolling the cube 90 times, the outcome was 24/90 which simplified is 4/15. 1/3 of 15 is 5. 4 < 5. Therefore, less than.

A music store is having a clearance sale. All items are discounted by 20%. What is the sale price of a radio that regularly costs $30?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You would first multiply 20% by $30. Then you would get 6 and subtract 6 from $30.

Answer:

$24

Step-by-step explanation:

Method 1: find 10% of 30 = 3 (just divide 30 by 10)

then double it to make 20% = 6

subtract 6 from 30 to give 24.

Method 2: 20% = 1/5

To find 1/5 of a number, divide it by 5.

30 divided by 5 = 6.

Then subtract 6 from 30 = 24.

Method 3: to decrease a number by 20% multiply it by 0.8.

30 x 0.8 = 24
