Original price: $150; Markdown:40%(show work please)

1 answer:

8 0

Original price is $150 so you times 150 by 0.40
150 x 0.40 = 60
So you take the $150 and you subtract $60 from $150
150 - 60 = 90
So the answer is $90

Please solve this proportion with steps (I'm stuck) (9x+6)/18= (20x+4)/3x

$\frac{9x+6}{18}=\frac{20x+4}{3x}$

Cross multiply. Distribute...
$3x(9x+6)=18(20x+4)\\27x^2+18x=360x+72\\27x^2-342x-72=0\\3x^2-38x-8=0$

OH GOD IT'S A QUADRATIC
(our equation is in ax² + bx + c = 0 form. a=3. b= -38. c= -8.
plug these values into the quadratic formula and simplify.)
$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}=\frac{-(-38)\pm\sqrt{(-38)^2-4(3)(-8)}}{2(3)}=\frac{38\pm\sqrt{1444+96}}6\\\\\sqrt{1444+96}=\sqrt{1540}=\sqrt{4\times345}=2\sqrt{345}\\\\\frac{38\pm2\sqrt{345}}6=\boxed{x=\frac{19\pm\sqrt{345}}3}$

Approximate values for x: -0.20714 or 12.874

Answer:

The line x = 3 is simply a vertical line that passes through every single point where x is equal to 3.

One that is is parallel and passes through (-4, 7) will be in the same format, just with another number. The given point has an x-coordinate of -4, so the line is:

x = -4

When 50% of a number is added to the number, the result is 195. What is the number?

olasank [31]

Answer:

The required number is 130

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

Given :-. 50% of a number ( 50% of x ) is added to the number ( x ) the result is 195.

$50\% \: of \: x \: + x = 195 \\ \\ \frac{50}{100} \times x + x = 195 \\ \\ \frac{1}{2} x + x = 195 \\ \\ \frac{3}{2} x = 195 \\ \\ x = 195 \times \frac{2}{3}$

x = 130 !
