The regular price is $22.5 if everything in a store is 20% off, and the discounted price of an item is $18.00

<h3>What is the percentage?</h3>

It's the ratio of two integers stated as a fraction of a hundred parts. It is a metric for comparing two sets of data, and it is expressed as a percentage using the percent symbol.

We have:

If everything in a store is 20% off, and the discounted price of an item is $18.00

Let's suppose the regular price is x

(100-20)% of x = 18

80x/100 = 18

x = $22.5

Thus, the regular price is $22.5 if everything in a store is 20% off, and the discounted price of an item is $18.00

Answer:

x = 55

y = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

If a quadrilateral is inscribed in a circle, then its opposite angles are supplementary. So E and G are supplementary, and H and F are supplementary.

x + 15 + 2x = 180

3x + 15 = 180 combine like terms

3x = 165 subtract 15 from both sides

x = 55 divide both sides by 3

y + 3y - 60 = 180

4y - 60 = 180 combine like terms

4y = 240 subtract 60 from both sides

y = 60 divide both sides by 4

MATH QUESTION!! WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!! PAST DUE HELP ASAP!!!

Answer:

<em>Proof below</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Right Triangles</u>

In any right triangle, i.e., where one of its internal angles is 90°, some interesting relations stand. One of the most-used is Pythagora's Theorem.

In a right triangle with shorter sides a and b, and longest side c, called the hypotenuse, the following equation is satisfied:

$c^2=a^2+b^2$

The image provided in the question shows a line passing through points A(0,4) and B(3,0) that forms a right triangle with both axes.

The origin is marked as C(0,0) and the point M is the midpoint of the segment AB. We have to prove.

$CM=\frac{1}{2}AB$

First, find the coordinates of the midpoint M(xm,ym):

$\displaystyle x_m=\frac{0+3}{2}=1.5$

$\displaystyle y_m=\frac{4+0}{2}=2$

Thus, the midpoint is M( 1.5 , 2 )

Calculate the distance CM:

$CM=\sqrt{(1.5-0)^2+(2-0)^2}$

$CM=\sqrt{2.25+4}=\sqrt{6.25}=2.5$

CM=2.5

Now find the distance AB:

$AB=\sqrt{(3-0)^2+(4-0)^2}=\sqrt{3^2+4^2}=\sqrt{9+16}=\sqrt{25}$

AB=5

AB/2=2.5

It's proven CM is half of AB

Julie will build a rectangular pen for her dog against a barn. A wall from the barn will form one side of the pen. She has 32 m

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

<h3> The width (side perpedicular to the barn): <u>x = 8 m</u></h3><h3> The lenght (side parallel to the barn): <u>y = 16 m</u> </h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

x - the width of the barn

She has 32 m of fencing so for the lenght remain (32-2x) m of fencing:

y = 32 - 2x

Area of the fencing: A = x•y

A(x) = x•(32 - 2x)

A(x) = -2x² + 32x ← quadratic function

The maximum value of quadratic function occurs at: $x=-\frac b{2a}$

a = -2, b = 32

$x=-\frac b{2a}=-\frac{32}{2\cdot(-2)}=-(-8)=8$

32-2x = 32 - 2•8 = 16
