Mrs. Ferguson looked at another hotel. She waited a week before she decided to book nights at that hotel, and now the prices have increased. The original price was $1589. The price for the same room and same number of nights is now $2075. What is the percent increase? Round to the nearest percent. Show your work. Will you plaes explain this ?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: To calculate the percentage increase: First: work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing. Then: divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. If your answer is a negative number then this is a percentage decrease.

2075-1589=486

486*100/1589=30.58%

Rounding it we get,
30.6%
=31%

The bed of a pickup truck measures 4 feet by 8 feet to the nearest inch, what is the length of the longest thin metal bar that will lie flat in the bed

Answers


The bed of the truck is a rectangle, 4-ft wide and 8-ft long.

The diagonal of the rectangle is

                                 √ (4² + 8²)

                             =  √ (16 + 64)

                             =  √ (80)

                             =  8.9442... feet 

                        8.9442... feet =  8 feett  11.33 inches

Rounded to the nearest inch:    8 ft  11 in .   

Mackenzie ran the olympic marathon of 26 1/5 miles in a time of 5 4/5 hours. How far did she run in a 1 hour?

Answers

If you would like to know how far did Mackenzie run in one hour, you can calculate this using the following steps:

26 1/5 = 131/5 miles ... 5 4/5 = 29/5 hours
x miles = ? ... 1 hour

131/5 * 1 = 29/5 * x
131/5 = 29/5 * x
x = 131/5 * 5/29
x = 131/29
x = 4 15/29 miles

The correct result would be 4 15/29 miles.
