Answer:

Price after discount = 2.4 (1-.3)

Price after discount = 2.4 (.7)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the cost after the discount.

Price after discount = original price - original price * discount rate

Factoring out the original price

Price after discount = original price (1- discount rate)

We know the discount rate = .3 and the original price is 2.4

Price after discount = 2.4 (1-.3)

Price after discount = 2.4 (.7)

Price after discount = 1.68

Select each expression that is equivalent to 3n+6 select all that apply. Explan.
arsen [322]
A, C. A is obviously correct because it’s the e same thing and C you combine like terms (2n+n=3n,2+4=6,=3n+6) it’s not B because it’s not 18, it’s not D because you’d get 3n+18 and it’s not E because you’d get 3n+12, meaning the only correct answers are A and C
