Hmmmm is not very clear if the 25% is just 25% of the original price, or of the reduced price, but let's assume is of the reduced price.

say the original price is "x", 20% off that, means the sale price is 80% of the original price, or (80/100) * x, or 0.8x.

then Linz shows up on the last day, and she's got 25% off from that price plus a beanie baby and a free garden hose.

so if the price is reduced by 25%, then the sale price is just 75% of whatever it was, but it was already reduced to 0.8x, what is 75% of 0.8x?

(75/100) * 0.8x, or 0.75 * 0.8x, which is 0.6x, now 0.6 * 100 is 60 to change it to percentage format, or 60% overall percentage reduction from the original price.

What is the value of z?
UNO [17]

Answer:

z =23

Step-by-step explanation:

The three angles in a triangle add to 180 degrees.

62+95+z = 180

Combine like terms

157 +z = 180

Subtract 157 from each side

157-157 +z = 180-157

z =23

A motel rents double rooms at $34 per day and single rooms at $26 per day. If 26 rooms were rented one day for a total of $804,
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer: 16 double rooms and 10 single rooms were rented.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of double rooms that were rented.

Let y represent the number of single rooms that were rented.

The total number of rooms rented in a day is 26. It means that

x + y = 26

A motel rents double rooms at $34 per day and single rooms at $26 per day. If all the rooms that were rented for one day cost a total of $804, it means that

34x + 26y = 804 - - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 26 - y into equation 1, it becomes

34(26 - y) + 26y = 804

884 - 34y + 26y = 804

- 34y + 26y = 804 - 884

- 8y = - 80

y = - 80/ - 8 = 10

x = 26 - y = 26 - 10

x = 16

Can a -150/10 be classified as both a rational number and a integer
irakobra [83]
Yes! This is because -150/10 can be simplified to be -15, which is a rational number.

The word “rational” sounds like another math word you’ve heard of before. Do you know what it is?

Well, it’s “ratio”!! Ratios can be seen in the forms x:y and x/y.


ANY RATIONAL NUMBER HAS THE ABILITY TO BE WRITTEN AS A RATIO!! This will completely exclude numbers with super long decimal points (ex: 1.2345678809928374737272828...)

This number also meets the requirements of being an integer. An integer is any whole number (this excludes decimals and fractions)

I know it’s written as a fraction. However, the fraction could be simplified, making it -15, which means this is both a rational number and an integer!!

a. The equation that describes the forces which act in the x-direction: 
    (200N)cos(30) - F_s = 0

b. The equation that describes the forces which act in the y-direction:
    F_N - (200N)sin(30) - mg = 0

c. The values of friction and normal forces will be:
     Friction force= (200N)cos(30),
     
The Normal force is not 490N in either case...
Case 1 (pulling up)
F_N = mg - (200N)sin(30) = 50g - 100N = 390N

Case 2 (pushing down)
F_N = mg + (200N)sin(30) = 50g + 100N = 590N

Log(x-2)+log2=2logy<br>log(x-3y+3)=0​
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

<h2>x = 4 and y = 2 or x = 10 and y = 4</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}\log(x-2)+\log2=2\log y&(1)\\\log(x-3y+3)=0&(2)\end{array}\right

===========================\\\text{DOMAIN:}\\\\x-2>0\to x>2\\y>0\\x-3y+3>0\to x-3y>-3\\=====================\\\\\text{We know:}\ \log_ab=c\iff a^c=b,\\\\\text{therefore}\ \log_ab=0\iff a^0=b\to b=1\\\\\text{From this we have}\\\\\log(x-3y+3)=0\iff x-3y+3=1\qquad\text{add}\ 3y\ \text{to both sides}\\\\x+3=3y+1\qquad\text{subtract 3 from both isdes}\\\\\boxed{x=3y-2}\qquad(*)\\\\\text{Substitute it to (1)}

\log(3y-2-2)+\log2=2\log(y)\qquad\text{use}\ \log_ab^n=n\log_ab\\\\\log(3y-4)+\log2=\log(y^2)\qquad\text{subtract}\ \log(y^2)\ \text{from both sides}\\\\\log(3y-4)+\log2-\log(y^2)=0\\\\\text{Use}\ \log_ab+\log_ac=\log_a(bc)\ \text{and}\ \log_ab-\log_ac=\log_a\dfrac{b}{c}\\\\\log\dfrac{(3y-4)(2)}{y^2}=0\qquad\text{use}\ \log_ab=0\Rightarrow b=1\\\\\dfrac{(3y-4)(2)}{y^2}=1\iff y^2=(3y-4)(2)\\\\\text{Use the distributive property}\ a(b+c)=ab+ac

y^2=(3y)(2)+(-4)(2)\\\\y^2=6y-8\qquad\text{subtract}\ 6y\ \text{from both sides}\\\\y^2-6y=-8\qquad\text{add 8 to both sides}\\\\y^2-6y+8=0\\\\y^2-2y-4y+8=0\\\\y(y-2)-4(y-2)=0\\\\(y-2)(y-4)=0\iff y-2=0\ \vee\ y-4=0\\\\\boxed{y=2\ \vee\ y=4}\in D

\text{Put the values of}\ y\ \text{to }\ (*):\\\\\text{for}\ y=2:\\\\x=3(2)-2\\\\x=6-2\\\\\boxed{x=4}\in D\\\\\text{for}\ y=4:\\\\x=3(4)-2\\\\x=12-2\\\\\boxed{x=10}\in D
