Skylar needs to buy a pair of dress pants for $40, a shirt for $30, and a tie for $20. Skylar has three coupons. The first coupo

n gives him x percent off on a shirt. The second coupon gives him y percent off on the dress pants. The third coupon gives him z percent off on his total purchase. He cannot combine the coupon for the total purchase with the other two coupons. These expressions give both possibilities for the total cost of Skylar's purchase after the coupons are applied. The variables represent percentages as decimals. (1−x)30+(1−y)40+20 (1−z)(40+30+20) Skylar uses the dress pants coupon. Which part of the expression represents the percent that Skylar will pay for the dress pants?

Evaluate when <br> a =3 b= 4.5 and h = 6
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

For Example:  Evaluate a2b for a = –2, b = 3, c = –4, and d = 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find my answer, I just plug in the given values, being careful to use parentheses, particularly around the "minus" signs. Especially when I'm just starting out, drawing the parentheses first may be helpful:

a2 b

(    )2 (  )

(–2)2 (3)

(4)(3)

12

Note how using parentheses helped me keep track of the "minus" sign on the value of a. This was important, because I might otherwise have squared only the 2, ending up with –4, which would have been wrong.

By the way, it turned out that we didn't need the values for the variables c and d. When you're given a big set of expressions to evaluate, you should expect that there will often be one or another of the variables that won't be included in any particular exercise in the set.

Evaluate a – cd for a = –2, b = 3, c = –4, and d = 4.

In this exercise, they've given me extra information. There is no b in the expression they want me to evaluate, so I can ignore this value in my working:

(–2) – (–4)(4)

–2 – (–16)

–2 + 16

16 – 2
