Answer:
No Jeremy can not find the cost of the sneakers by adding the percents, you have to the math one sale discount at a time.
The answer is $45.90.
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to multiply $60 by 15%, getting $9. Subtract 9 from 60 and get the first discount price: $51. Then you will multiply 51 by `10% and get 5.1, subtract 5.1 from 51 and get your final sale price $45.90. If you added the percents together you would get an incorrect value of $45. Close but not the correct answer.
Answer:
JML=142 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
This shape is a rhombus, as all 4 sides are equal, but the angle measures are not. One of the properties of a rhombus is that opposite angles are congruent, and adjacent angles are supplementary. Only the second one is important. Since angles KLM and angle JML are supplementary, the equation KLM+JML=180 can be used. KLM is then substituted by the given angle measure, 38 degrees, to get an equation such as JML+38=180. Now, to solve for JML, 38 must be subtracted from both sides of the equation, which leaves teh answer of JML=142.
3 weeks
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the number of weeks, we have to equate the amount already saved and planned to save by both each week.
So we can write the expression as,
Let w be the number of weeks.
25 + 5w =16 + 8w
Grouping the terms as,
25 - 16 = 8w - 5w
9 = 3w
Dividing both sides by 3, we will get,
3w/3 = 9/3
w = 3
So number of weeks = 3
Answer:
$147
Step-by-step explanation:
so to find 20% I usually divide the original cost by 100 to get 1% then multiply that number by 20.
in this case 122.50/100= 1.225, 1.225x20 = 24.5
24.5 + 122.50 = 147
