Answer:

percentage applied to pants and sweater is 80%, and that applied to shirt and shoes is 70%

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Question in English</u>

Leticia and Marta have gone Shopping in the sales. The First has bought $ 42 pants and a $ 24 shirt, and the second has bought a $ 28 sweater and $ 60 shoes. After applying the discounts, Leticia has paid $ 50.4 and Marta $ 64.4. Calculate the percentages of discounts applied knowing that the percentage applied to the pants and the sweater matched and that applied to the shirt and shoes as well.

<u>Solution</u>

Leticia = 42 + 24 = 50.4

Marta = 28 + 60 = 64.4

The percentage applied to the pants and the sweater coincided (that is, it is x) and that applied to the shirt and shoes also (that is, it is y)

Thus,

1) 42x + 24y = 50.4

2) 28x + 60y = 64.4

obtaining and in 1 we have

y = 50.4 - 42x / 24

y = 2.1 - 1.75x

Substituting and in 2 we obtain

28x + 60y = 64.4

28x + 60 (2.1 - 1.75x) = 64.4

28x + 126 - 105x = 64.4

126 - 64.4 = 105x - 28x

x = 61.6 / 77

x = 0.8

Substituting x into 1 gives:

42x + 24y = 50.4

42 (0.8) + 24y = 50.4

33.6 + 24y = 50.4

y = 50.4 -33.6 / 24

y = 0.7

Therefore, the percentage applied to pants and sweater is 80%, and that applied to shirt and shoes is 70%

Answer:

El descuento aplicado a los pantalones y suéteres es del 20%, mientras que el descuento aplicado a las camisas y zapatos es del 30%.

Step-by-step explanation:

dado que el porcentaje de descuento pagado por pantalones y suéteres coincide, que sea x%.

Dado que el porcentaje de descuento para la camisa y los zapatos coincide, que sea y%.

Comencemos con el monto pagado por pantalones y suéteres.

Para pantalones x% de 42 = x / 100 * 42 = 42x / 100 = 0.42x

Cantidad pagada = 42-0.42x

Para suéteres, x% de 28 = x / 100 * 28 = 0.28x

Cantidad pagada = 28-0.28x

Ahora para camisas y zapatos.

Camisa; y% de 24 = y / 100 * 24 = 0.24y importe pagado = 24-0.24y

Zapatos y% de 60 = y / 100 * 60 = 0.6y monto pagado = 60-0.6y

Vamos a proceder Matemáticamente, el monto que Letizia pagó por los pantalones y las camisas será;

42-0.42x + 24-0.24y = 50.4 66- 50.4 = 0.24y + 0.42x

0.42x + 0.24y = 15.6

Multiplica por 100 42x + 24y = 1560

la cantidad que pagó Marita por el suéter y el zapato; 60-0.6y + 28-0.28x = 64.4

88-64.4 = 0.6y + 0.28x 23.6 = 0.6y + 0.28x multiplicar por 100

60y + 28x = 2360

Entonces tenemos dos ecuaciones para resolver simultáneamente para obtener los valores de x e y

42x + 24y = 1560 28x + 60y = 2360

De 1,

24y = 1560-42x y = (1560-42x) / 24

inserte esto en la segunda ecuación 28x + 60 ((1560-42x) / 24) = 2360

28x + 2.5 (1560-42x) = 2360 28x + 3900 - 105x = 2360

105x-28x = 3900-2360

77x = 1540

x = 1540/77 = 20%

y = (1560-42x) / 24

y = (1560-42 (20)) / 24

y = 720/24 = 30%

El descuento aplicado a los pantalones y suéteres es del 20%, mientras que el descuento aplicado a las camisas y zapatos es del 30%.

A football player kicks a football downfield. The height of the football increases until it reaches a maximum height of 15 yards
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

kick 1 has travelled 15 + 15 = 30 yards before hitting the ground

so kick 2 travels 25 + 25 = 50 yards before hitting the ground

first kick reached 8 yards and 2nd kick reached 20 yards  

Step-by-step explanation:

1st kick travelled 15 yards to reach maximum height of 8 yards

so, it has travelled 15 + 15 = 30 yards before hitting the ground

2nd kick is given by the equation

y (x) = -0.032x(x - 50)

y = 1.6 x - 0.032x^2

we know that maximum height occurs is given as

x = -\frac{b}{2a}

y = - \frac{1.6}{2( - 0.032)} = 25

and maximum height is

y = 1.6(25) - 0.032 (25)^2

y = 20

so kick 2 travels 25 + 25 = 50 yards before hitting the ground

first kick reached 8 yards and 2nd kick reached 20 yards

Mark has a 25 ounce drink. He drinks 5 ounces. What percent of the drink does he have left?
valina [46]

Answer: 80\%

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be solved by the <u>Rule of Three</u>, which is a mathematical rule to find out an amount that is with another quantity given in the same relation as other two also known.

In this case, the 25 ounce drink represents the 100 \% . So, if Mark drinks 5 ounces, this means he has 20 ounces left and we have to find the percent this represents:

25 oz ------- 100\%

20 oz -------- ?

?=\frac{(20 oz)(100\%)}{25 oz}

?=80\% This is the percent of the drink Mark has left
