Answer:

The percent decrease for the price of the car = 36%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

CP = $25,000

SP = $16,000

To Find:

The percent decrease for the price of the car = ?

Solution:

Decrease% = 100(CP - SP) / CP

Decrease% =100( $25,000 - $16,000) / $25,000

Decrease% = 9,00000 / 25,000

Decrease% = 900/25

Decrease% = 36%

Therefore,

The percent decrease for the price of the car = 36%

For a particular pickup truck the percent markup is known to be 115% based on cost to the seller. If the seller paid $15,800 for

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

115%(15,800)= $18,170. <--- markup price

$15,800+$18,170= $33,970 total price

That is 115% x $15,800 = $18,170 markup price

Then add the original price to the markup price

That is $15,800 + $18,170 = $33,970

Okay, so lets say a teacher wants to divide her class of 30 students into 10 groups, but not necessarily of equal size. What are

Phantasy [73]

Well, she could do 30/10 which equals 3. So she could do 10 groups with 3 students in each group.

Cy+4=d−9y solve for y

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

Answer:

y= d−4 /c+9

Step-by-step explanation:

cy+4=d−9y

Step 1: Add 9y to both sides.

cy+4+9y=d−9y+9y

cy+9y+4=d

Step 2: Add -4 to both sides.

cy+9y+4+−4=d+−4

cy+9y=d−4

Step 3: Factor out variable y.

y(c+9)=d−4

Step 4: Divide both sides by c+9.

y(c+9) c+9 = d−4 /c+9

y= d−4 /c+9

I need help with geometry. Find x.

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

Part 9) $x=5$

Part 10) $x=-9$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The Midpoint Theorem states that: The segment joining two sides of a triangle at the midpoints of those sides is parallel to the third side and is half the length of the third side

Part 9) we know that

Point Q is the midpoint segment XY (QY=QX)

Point R is the midpoint segment XW (RW=RX)

Applying the Midpoint Theorem

RQ is parallel to WY

and

$RQ=\frac{1}{2}WY$

we have

$RQ=2x-3\\WY=x+9$

substitute

$2x-3=\frac{1}{2}(x+9)$

solve for x

$4x-6=(x+9)$

$4x-x=9+6$

$3x=15$

$x=5$

Part 10) we know that

Point B is the midpoint segment TS (BS=BT)

Point C is the midpoint segment RS (CS=CR)

Applying the Midpoint Theorem

BC is parallel to TR

and

$BC=\frac{1}{2}TR$

we have

$BC=x+19\\TR=x+29$

substitute

$x+19=\frac{1}{2}(x+29)$

solve for x

$2x+38=(x+29)$

$2x-x=29-38$

$x=-9$

The two lines below are parallel. If the slope of the red line is 3, what is the

rodikova [14]

The slopes of parallel lines are always equal. That means the slope of the green line is also 3.
Hope this helps, please mark brainliest if possible :)
