Given that a<span> local RadioShack store wants to buy a new line of plasma TVs. Manufacturer A offers chain discounts of 18/12, and Manufacturer B offers terms of 17/13.

Let the list price of the plasma TVs be x, then after a chain discount of 18/12 by Manufacturer A, the selling price of the plasma TVs will be (1 - 0.18)(1 - 0.12)x = 0.82(0.88)x = 0.7216x

Also, after the discount of 17/13 by manufacturer B, the selling price of the plasma TVs will be (1 - 0.17)(1 - 0.13)x = 0.83(0.87)x = 0.7221x

Thus, the final selling price after discount by manufacturer A is 0.7216 and the final selling price after dscount by manufacturer B is 0.7221x.

Therefore, Manufacturer A offers a </span><span>single equivalent discount rate that is the best deal.</span>

7. y-2 = (x+3)<br> 4<br> 2<br> X<br> - TO<br> 12<br> 4
drek231 [11]

Answer:

y = -24 + -2x + 2x2

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying:

y = 2(x + 3)(x + -4)

reorder the terms:

y = 2(3 + x)(x + -4)

multiply (3 + x) * (-4 + x)

y = 2(3(-4 + x) + x(-4 + x))

y = 2((-4 * 3 + x * 3) + x(-4 + x))

y = 2((-12 + 3x) + x(-4 + x))

y = 2(-12 + 3x + (-4 * x + x * x))

y = 2(-12 + 3x + (-4x + x2))

Combine like terms  3x + -4x = -1x

y = 2(-12 + -1x + x2)

y = (-12 * 2 + -1x * 2 + x2 * 2)

y = (-24 + -2x + 2x2)

Solving:

y = -24 + -2x + 2x2

solving for variable 'y'

Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.

Simplifying:

y = -24 + -2x + 2x2

Help me please. Find the measures of CAD and DAE
VladimirAG [237]

well, we know the "sum" of both angles is 90°, notice the rectangle in the corner, so we can say that the angles are simply complementary angles, thus

\left( \cfrac{3}{2}x+20 \right)+2x=90\implies \stackrel{\textit{multiplying both sides by }\stackrel{LCD}{2}}{2\left( \cfrac{3}{2}x+20 + 2x \right)=2(90)} \\\\\\ 3x+40+4x=180\implies 7x+40=180\implies 7x=140\implies x=\cfrac{140}{7} \\\\\\ x = 20~\hfill \stackrel{\measuredangle CAD}{\cfrac{3}{2}20+20\implies 50}\qquad\qquad \stackrel{\measuredangle DAE}{2(20)\implies 40}
