Answer: $27.20

Step-by-step explanation:

She bought a blouse for 20% off so it means that she paid 80% of the original price.We can then set up the equation  

80% of x = 21.76   where x is the original price so solve for x

0.8x = 21.76  

x = 27.20

Which  means the original price is $27.20

Is the relationship shown by the data linear? If so, model the data with an equation. x y –7 5 –5 9 –3 13 –1 17
diamong [38]

Given:

The table of values is:

x :     -7          -5         -3           -1

y :      5           9         13          17

To find:

Whether the given data is linear and then find the equation.

Solution:

The given data is linear if the slope and rate of change is constant.

Slope formula:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Using the slope formula. we get

\dfrac{9-5}{-5-(-7)}=2

\dfrac{13-9}{-3-(-5)}=2

\dfrac{17-13}{-1-(-3)}=2

Since the rate of change is constant, i.e., 2, therefore the given data is linear.

The slope of a linear equation is 2 and it passes through the point (-7,5). So, the equation of the line is:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

y-5=2(x-(-7))

y-5=2(x+7)

y-5=2x+14

Adding 5 on both sides, we get

y-5+5=2x+14+5

y=2x+19

Therefore, the equation for the given data is y=2x+19.

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

Hypotenuse is the longest side of a right-angled triangle, the side opposite the right angle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the hypotenuse can be found using the Pythagorean theorem, which states that the square of the length of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides.

I need help please !!!!!!
garri49 [273]

Answer:

And the probability that the first die shows an odd number is 1/2, as is the probability that the second does. Since the dice fall independently, P(both are odd) = P(first is odd)*P(second is odd) = (1/2)*(1/2) = 1/4. Therefore P(at least one is even) = 1 - 1/4 = 3/4.
