<span>The proportion of clay uses is 3/8 (Three Eighths). That is 3 lbs. of clay to every 8 vases. This is determined by the first given proportion 3 lbs./8 vases and confirmed by the second. To prove that is the case you divide the second ration by the first numerator: 9 divided by 3 = 3 and 24 divided by 3 = 8. So the proportion for 9/24 is still 3/8. This can also be used to increase the number of vases made. For example if 40 vases need to be made: we divide 40 by the numerator 8 = 5. So we need 5 portions of 3 to make 40 vases. 5 times 3 = 15. So the 15 lbs. of clay is needed for 40 vases.</span>

Marilyn purchased a book that had a regular price of $19. She used a coupon that reduced the regular price by 15%. Sales tax for
Alika [10]

Answer:

2.80

Step-by-step explanation:

The discount is the regular price times the discount

discount = 19 *15%

discount = 2.85

The new price is the regular price minus the discount

new price = 19-2.85

                 =16.15

Now she has to pay the sales tax

tax = new price * tax rate

tax= 16.15 * 6.5%

     = 16.15 *.065

       =1.05

We add the tax to the new price to get the final price

final price = new price+tax

                = 16.15 +1.05

                =17.20

She pays with a 20 dollar bill

Change = payment - final price

              =20.00 - 17.20

              = 2.80

Which of the following is(are) the solution(s) to |5x+2|=8 ?
slega [8]

Answer:

x = 6/5 or x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve:

|5x+2|=8

We know that |u|=a the u = a and u = -a

Now solving:

|5x+2|=8

5x +2 = 8 or 5x +2 = -8

5x = 8-2 or 5x = -8-2

5x = 6 or 5x = -10

x = 6/5 or x = -10/5

x = 6/5 or x = -2

So, x = 6/5 or x = -2
