If the sale price is $40 and the discount is 25%, what is the original price?

Mathematics

Use this equation to solve the problem:

x - (x * .25) = 40

This equation is saying the original price times itself by 25% is 40.

x - (x * .25) = 40
Simplify.
x - .25x = 40
.75x = 40
Divide both sides by .75.
x = 53.33

The original price was $53.33

What is the range of the function f(x) = 12 − 3x for the domain {-4, -2, 0, 2, 4}?
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

{24, 18, 12, 6, 0} is the range of the above function

Step-by-step explanation:

solution:

let, x= -4

f(-2) = 12-3*(-2)

= 12+12

=24

let,x= -2

f(-2) = 12-3*(-2)

=12+6

18

let,x =0

f(0)= 12-3*0

=12-0

=12

let,x=2

f(2) = 12-3*2

=12-6

=6

let,x=4

f(4) = 12-3*4

=12-12

=0

I’m stuck on this question please help
Komok [63]
Take the price of pears (£1.30 per kilogram) and multiply it by the amount of pears (7kg). You get 9.1 so now you take the total amount spent (£12.70) and subtract the 9.1 and you get 3.6 now that is the amount you spent on the apples. So take 3.6 and divide it by the amount of apples you got (2kg) you will get 1.8 and that is your overall answer.

What value of x will make the given triangles congruent?
Molodets [167]
Because you're trying to make them congruent, equal the two expressions to each other. 

So, for #10 you would equal them so it would look like this. 
2x+2=5x-19

Then you would just go ahead and simplify

2x+2=5x-19
-2x     -2x
---------------
2= 3x -19
+19    +19
---------------
21=3x
---  ----
3     3

x=7

This means that x should be 7. You can check this just by plugging it in

2x+2
2(7)+2 = 16

5x-19
5(7)-19= 16

Same with #11.

x+8=3x-14
-x     -x
--------------
8=2x-14
+14   +14
--------------
22=2x
---  ----
2     2

x=11

Check. 

x+8
11+8= 19

3x-14
3(11) - 14 = 19

11111nata11111 [884]
The 9 is in the tenths place so it should be 9x1/10. Meaning it would be 100+3x1+9x1/10+3x1,000
