1. Julie went to the store to buy a pair of pants. The pants are
normally $39.95. This week they are on sale for 25%
off the
regular price. What is the sale price?
2. During Little League baseball, the Tigers and the Cubs
finished the season atop the division. The Tigers won
11 games and lost 4. Because of a couple of rainouts,
the Cubs won 10 games and lost 3. Find percent of the
games both teams won.
3. The price of a stock was $52.63 when the stock market
opened. It rose to $61.50 when the stock market
closed. Find the percent of increase of the stock price
during the day.
4. In Kendra's school, 28 percent of seven graders went
to a movie theater over the weekend. If there are 800
students in the seventh grade, how many of them saw
a movie?

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Let x represent the sale price.

normal price = $39.95. This week they are on sale for 25% off the regular price. The amount taken off is

25/100 × 39.95 = 9.9875

Sale price = 39.95 - 9.9875 = $29.9625

2) number of games played by the tigers is 11 + 4 = 15

Percentage of games won is

11/15 × 100 = 73.3%

number of games played by the cubs is 10 + 3 = 13

Percentage of games won is

10/13 × 100 = 76.9%

3) increase in stock price = 61.5 - 52.63 = $8.87

Percentage increase = 8.87/52.63 × 100 = 16.85%

4) if 28 percent of seven graders went

to a movie theater over the weekend and there are 800 students in the seventh grade, then the number of seven graders that saw

the movie is

28/100 × 800 = 224

hey! so 1 (25) out of 4 (100) is 25 so your answer is 25%. it's like quarters!

solution:

we have to construct

∠m nt ≅ ∠p qr

the steps to draw this construction are

step 1: use a compass to draw an arc from point q which intersects the side pq at point a and the side qr at point b.

step 2: draw a segment nt and use the same width of the compass to draw an arc from point n which intersects the segment nt at a point x.

step 3:

step 4: join points n and y using a straightedge.

step 3:

option (d).maintaining the same width of the compass as ab, draw an arc from point x such that it intersects the arc drawn from n in a point y.

to draw   congruent angles , 1. width of compasses while drawing two angles should be same i.e from point at which angle has to be drawn, 2.the distance between the two points where the compass intersects the two sides should be same while drawing any two congruent angles.
