Hello,
Let's r the ration
We suppose x ≠0
x=r*(x-2)==>r=x/(x-2)
x+3=r*x==> (x+3)/x=x/(x-2)==>(x+3)(x-2)=x²
==>x²+3x-2x-6=x² ==>x-6=0==>x=6
x-2=6-4=4
x=6
x+3=6+3=9
6=4*3/2
9=6*3/2
Ration 3/2
First term: 4
a) The expression to find the sale price of pastry = 0.75 x
b) The regular price of the pastry bought by Kimberly = $2.70
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1 :
Let x be the regular price of the pastry in the bakery
Percentage of discount = 25%
Amount of discount = 0.25 x
The expression to find the sale price of pastry = x - 0.25 x = 0.75 x
Step 2 :
Sale price of the pastry bought by Kimberly = $2.03 = 0.75 x
<u>To find the regular price</u>
0.75x = 2.03
x =
= 2.70
Regular price of the pastry bought by Kimberly = $2.70
Step 3 :
Answer :
a) The expression to find the sale price of pastry = 0.75 x
b) The regular price of the pastry bought by Kimberly = $2.70
D=12
Because if you write down the equation 4x-8=40 and plug in 12. 4 times 12 is 48
. 48-8 equals 40
Answer:
Both angles x and y are 69 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the angle with measure 69 degrees and angle x are alternate interior angles, they have equal value. Therefore, x has measure 69 degrees. Because this figure is a trapezoid, angle y is supplementary to the angle with measure 111 degrees. Therefore, y=180-111=69 degrees as well. Hope this helps!
