15\x and 80\100
15 times 100=1500
1500=8x
then you divide 1500 by 80 so x is by itself
x=18.75

Answer:

Original price of the shirt was $18.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let original price of the shirts is $x

Since the selling price of each shirt was 80% of the original price, the selling price will be = 80% of x

= (0.80)x

Since each shirt was sold for $15, the selling price will be represented by

(0.80)x = 15

x = \frac{15}{0.80}

 = $18.75

Therefore, the original price of the shirt was $18.75.

Elenna [48]

Keep in mind both of these angles are equal to each other meaning the equation will have a = So...

4x+7=5(x-4)

Now multiply 5 to x and 4

4x+7=5x-20

Now subtract 4x from 5x

7=1x-20

Now add  20 to both sides

27=x

So x=27

Write the following coordinates where they belong in the line segments below. (5 1/2, -4 1/4) _______ (3 3/4, -1 1/4)
Ket [755]

ANSWER

(4 \frac{5}{8} , -  2\frac{3}{4} )

EXPLANATION

The end points of the segment are:

(5 \frac{1}{2} ,-4 \frac{1}{4} )

and

(3 \frac{3}{4} ,-1 \frac{1}{4} )

The box represents the midpoint of the two points.

Using the midpoint formula;

( \frac{x_1+x_2}{2} , \frac{y_1+y_2}{2} )

We substitute the end points of the line segment to obtain,

( \frac{5 \frac{1}{2} +3 \frac{3}{4} }{2} , \frac{ - 4 \frac{1}{?} + - 1 \frac{1}{4} }{2} )

This simplifies to:

( \frac{37}{8} , -  \frac{11}{4} )

We convert back to mixed numbers to get,

(4 \frac{5}{8} , -  2\frac{3}{4} )

The correct choice is B

What value of b makes the polynomial x2+bc+16 a perfect square
Fynjy0 [20]
For a perfect square

b² = 4*a*c

Comparing ax² + bx + c = 0 to x² + bx + 16

a = 1,    c = 16

<span>b² = 4*a*c
</span>
<span>b² = 4*1*16
</span>
<span>b² = 64
</span>
b = √64

b = 8

The value of b = 8.
