Answer:
less
Step-by-step explanation:
An increase of 20% makes the price 120% of the original price.
A discount of 20% makes the discounted price 80% of the previous price.
Original price: x
20% increase in price: 1.2 * x
20% discount over the raised price: 0.8 * 1.2 * x
Now we multiply the numbers in the last expression and compare the result with x.
0.8 * 1.2 * x = 0.96x
0.96 is less than x, so the customer pays less than the original price.
Answer:
<em>y=-6</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Geometric Sequences</em>
Any given sequence is said to be geometric if each term 
can be obtained as the previous term 
by a constant value called the common ratio.
or equivalently
Looking closely at the sequence 2, y, 18,-54, 162 we can try to find out if it's a geometric sequence or not. We compute the possible common ratios
and we see they both result -3. If we use r=-3 and try to find the second term (y), then
y=2*(-3)=-6
Now we compute the third term: (-6)(-3)=18
Since we got the third term as given in the original sequence.
So y=-6
Answer:
{x,y} = {5,6}
Step-by-step explanation:
// Solve equation [1] for the variable x
[1] x = y - 1
// Plug this in for variable x in equation [2]
[2] 2•(y -1) - y = 4
[2] y = 6
// Solve equation [2] for the variable y
[2] y = 6
// By now we know this much :
x = y-1
y = 6
// Use the y value to solve for x
x = (6)-1 = 5
Answer:
15 m, but it depends on your shape?
Using the cosine rule we can work out the length of the side opposite the indicated right angle which came to be 15mm
then the final answer came to be 163mm^2
