Hello there! I can help you! So we are decreasing a price by 12% and then doing it again by 5%. We would pay 88% of the original price and then 95% of that sale price. To execute this better, let's make a real-world situation. Say that Mariana wants to buy a new pair of shoes that originally costed $100. The store has a tag for 12% off and then an additional 5% discount at the counter. How much would she pay for the shoes? What total discount does she get? Let's start by multiplying 100 by 88%. 100 * 88% (0.88) is 88. That's the first part. Now, we multiply that number by 95% to find the price at the counter. 88 * 95% (0.95) is 83.6. That's the price with both discounts. Mariana would pay $83.60 for the shoes, but what about the percent discount total? Let's subtract that price from 100 and see what we get. 100 - 83.6 is 16.4. Percents are parts of 100, so we don't need to do anymore simplifying. There. The total amount of discount is 16.4%.

Find the area of the figure below<br><br> A.288.62<br> B.266.22<br> C.186.66<br> D.236.6
Archy [21]

Answer:

A. 288.62

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of two triangles = 15.3 * 10.4 = 159.12

Area rectangle = hypotenuse triangle * 7

hypotenuse = √108.16 + 234.09

Hypotenuse = 18.5

Area rectangle = 18.5 * 7 = 129.5

129.5 + 159.12 = 288.62

Answer = A. 288.62

Help me answer this question please
enot [183]

Figure D could be formed from the net.

(bottom right)

-Because-

The net says that the middle shape (the bottom face) is 14 long, and it is 8 tall. So the only option that makes sense is the bottom right!
