A leather recliner is on sale for 30% less than its original price. A consumer has a coupon that saves an additional of 25% off of the sale price. If the consumer pays $237 for the recliner, which of the following is the original price of the recliner to the nearest dollar?
$316
$431
$451
$527
Correct Answer : C
Given:
- Original price of the recliner: P
- Sale price (30% less than the original price): 0.7P
- Coupon saves an additional 25% off the sale price: 0.75 * 0.7P = 0.525P
- The consumer pays $237 for the recliner.
We set up the equation:
0.525P = 237
Now, let's solve for P:
P = 237 / 0.525}
P = 451.428
Rounded to the nearest dollar, the original price of the recliner is approximately 451 dollars.

In a negatively-correlated variables, a change in one variable result in opposite change in the other variable. In other words, an increase in on variable results in a decrease in the other.
Now let’s analyze the given scenarios:
As elevation decreases, temperature remains the same this is NO-CORRELATION
As elevation decreases, temperature decreases is a POSITIVE CORRELATION
As elevation increases, temperature decreases is a NEGATIVE CORRELATION
As elevation increases, temperature increases is a POSITIVE CORRELATION

We assume the pizza to be full representing 1. One friend eats ½ of 1=1/2
The remaining portion of the pizza=1-1/2=2/2-1/2=1/2
Three friends share equally ½ of the pizza=1/2÷3=12*13=1/6
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
In direct proportion relation, we utilize the relationship as:
Variable∝Variable 2
Thus from the given case,
Force∝stretch
We introduce a constant term, K to remove the sign of proportionality as
Force=K* stretch
Let’s find the value of K, using Force=132 N and stretch of 0.07 m
132 N=K*0.07 m
K=132 N/0.07 m=1885.7 N/m
Now substitute this value of K in the following equation
Force=1885.7 N/m * stretch
For a stretch of 0.1 m, the force needed is
Force=1885.7 N/m * 0.1 m=188.57 N=188.6 N

Correct Answer is B
Explanation
Number of boxes in the room is equal to the volume of the room divided by the volume of one box
Volume of the room=9 ft*9 ft*9 ft= 729 ft3
Volume of one box = 2 ft* 2 ft * 2 ft= 8 ft3
Number of boxes= 729 ft3/ 8 ft3= 91.125 boxes
Thus, the room can store 91.125 boxes, which is about 91 boxes.
However, the room’s dimensions are 9 ft x 9 ft x 9 ft, and the boxes are 2 ft x 2 ft x 2 ft. To determine how many boxes fit along each dimension:
- In the 9 ft length, you can fit\(\frac{9}{2} = 4.5\) boxes, which means only 4 whole boxes fit along this dimension.
- In the 9 ft width, you can fit 4 whole boxes.
- In the 9 ft height, you can fit 4 whole boxes.
Therefore, the total number of boxes that fit is:
\(4×4×4=64\ boxes\)
Correct Answer is A
Explanation
Given the equation (x/y)-z=rw, we make x the subject of the formula as follows:
(x/y)-z=rw
Add z to both sides of the equation
(x/y)-z+z=rw+z
(x/y)=rw+z
Multiply both sides by y
(x/y)*y=y(rw+z)
X=y(rw+z)
Rearranging the equation results in:
X = y(z+rw)
