Let the original price of the sweater be = X
Then the amount Jerome pays for the sweater after 20% discount = X - (20X/100)
= X - 0.2X
= 0.8X
Now on this price the 8.25% tax needs to be added to get to the amount actually paid by Jerome.
So,
0.8X + [(8.25/100) * (0.8X) = 25.1
This is the equation from which the actual price of the sweater bought by Jerome can be determined.
So
0.8X + [(.0825) * ( 0.8X) = 25.1
0.8X + 0.066X = 25.1
0.866X = 25.1
X = 25.1/0.866
= 28.98
So the actual price of the sweater is $28.98.
30000 is the answer as it is ajove 20000 in comparison to rounding down
Answer (2x + 7) • (x2 - 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
please give me brainlest!!
Step by step solution :
Step 1 :
Trying to factor as a Difference of Squares :
1.1 Factoring: x2-2
Theory : A difference of two perfect squares, A2 - B2 can be factored into (A+B) • (A-B)
Proof : (A+B) • (A-B) =
A2 - AB + BA - B2 =
A2 - AB + AB - B2 =
A2 - B2
Note : AB = BA is the commutative property of multiplication.
Note : - AB + AB equals zero and is therefore eliminated from the expression.
Check : 2 is not a square !!
Ruling : Binomial can not be factored as the difference of two perfect squares.
Final result :
(2x + 7) • (x2 - 2)
155 degrees is the answer
Answer:
60
Step-by-step explanation: 12L + 1/2 = 72.5
72.5 - 24 - 8.5 + 20
72.5 -24 = 48.5 - 8.5 = 40
40 + 20 = 60
