Answer:

(a) $180

(b) 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) $126 = 30% of x; x is the total

so from this, you get an equation: 126 = 0.3x

solve the equation: x = 180; so the amount before

discount is $180

(b) You know the price of discount for the rice cooker is

180-126 which is $54

Then you subtract 54 from 64 to get the discount amount for the toaster

10/40 is 1/4 or 25%

The formula of a midpoint of the segment between the points

$(x_1,\ y_1),\ (x_2,\ y_2)\\\\M\left(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\ \dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right)$

We have:

$(17,\ -11),\ (-14,\ -16)$

Substitute:

$M\left(\dfrac{17+(-14)}{2},\ \dfrac{-11+(-16)}{2}\right)\to M\left(\dfrac{3}{2},\ \dfrac{-27}{2}\right)$

Help pls! if f(x) =6x-4, evaluate f(x)/-4 for x=8

irga5000 [103]

So first of all you need to plug in the x=8 into both equations which will make the first equation be equals to 44 than plug in the x into the second equation and you will get 4 over -1 so in my opinion it should be b=44
