The students at midtown middle school sold flowers as a fundraiser in september and in october in october they charged $1.50 for each flower october price was 20% increase of the september price what was the price of the flowers of september

In September, the flowers cost $1.20 each

Step-by-step explanation:

whilst worded weirdly, this question is simply asking for

$1.50 (or simply 1.5) - 20%

1.5 - 20% =

The first step is to calculate 1%. This is simply dividing the whole number (in this case 1.5) by 100.

1.5 ÷ 100 = 0.015

therefore 0.015 = 1%

Now to calculate how much we need to subtract from the total (1.5), we must multiply 1% by 20

1% x 20 = 20%

0.015 x 20 = 0.3

therefore 0.3 = 20%

now we know this, we can return to our original equation 1.5 - 20%

We now know 20% = 0.3 so we can substitute it in our equation

1.5 - 0.3 = 1.2

therefore the answer to the question is 1.2 (or $1.20)

(sin 42)/31. = sinx)/37

sinx = 37 (sin42)/31

= 37× 0.66/31 = 0.787

x= 51.9

other angle opposite to y = 180-51.9-42

= 180- 93.9 =86.1

so

sin42)/31 = sin 86.1)/y

0.021 = 0.997 /y

y= 0.997/0.021 =47.47
