Answer: 0.0160768

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the marked price of the cosmetic be 100.

From the question,

Walgreens is offered a chain discount on cosmetics from Libby Corp. of 8%, 5% and 2%. The selling price of the cosmetic after the chain discount will be:

100 × (1 - 8/100) × (1 - 5/100) × (1 - 2/100)

= 100 × (1 - 0.08) × (1 - 0.05) × (1 - 0.02)

= 85.652

Discount = Marked price - Selling price

Discount = 100 - 85.652

Discount = 14.348

Discount percent = 14.348% = 0.14348

Roma Company offers a chain discount of 7%, 6% and 4%.

The selling price of the cosmetic after the chain discount will be:

100 × (1 - 7/100) × (1 - 6/100) × (1 - 4/100)

= 100 × (1 - 0.07) × (1 - 0.06) × (1 - 0.04)

= 83.9232

Discount = Marked price - Selling price

Discount = 100 - 83.9232

Discount = 16.0768

Discount percent = 16.0768% = 0.0160768

The highest discount offered is 0.0160768.

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

\frac{32}{40} ← divide numerator and denominator by 4

= \frac{8}{10} = 0.8

(b)

\frac{35}{50} → divide numerator and denominator by 5

= \frac{7}{10} = 0.7

(c)

\frac{60}{40} ← divide numerator and denominator by 4

= \frac{15}{10} = 1.5

6x+1=6x-8. I need to show my work also
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

No solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets try to solve it.

6x + 1 = 6x - 8      Bring like terms to the same side:  

6x - 6x =  -8 - 1

0 = -9  which is absurd so there is no solution to this equation.
