Number of skirts = x

Number of blouses = x + 300

2/5 × (x + 300) = 1402 blouses

x + 300 = 3505

x = 3505-300

x = 3205 ( Number of skirts)

x+300= 3205+300=3505 (Number of blouses)

An employee at a homemade wooden toy store earned $860 over the past week. The employee needs to pay 14% for Federal Income Tax

kari74 [83]

Answer:

$713.8

Step-by-step explanation:

14%of 860 = 120.4

3% of 860 = 25.8

so, subtract the sum of the above 2 values from 860.

860 - (120.4+25.8) = 860-146.2 = 713.8

Addie walked 2 1 2 miles in 45 minutes. Suzie covered 2 2 5 miles in 2 3 of an hour. Which girl walked faster? By how much?

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Suzie walks faster by 0.27 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Addie walked $2\frac{1}{2}$ miles in 45 minutes and Suzie covered $2\frac{2}{5}$ miles in $\frac{2}{3}$ of an hour.

So, Addie walked 2.5 miles in 45 minutes i.e. $\frac{45}{60} = 0.75$ hours.

Therefore, the walking speed of Addie is $\frac{2.5}{0.75} = 3.33$ miles per hour.

Again, Suzie covered $2\frac{2}{5}$ i.e. 2.4 miles in $\frac{2}{3}$ i.e. 0.67 hours.

So, the walking speed of Suzie is $\frac{2.4}{0.67} = 3.6$ miles per hour.

Hence, Suzie walks faster by (3.6 - 3.33) = 0.27 miles per hour. (Answer)
