Answer:

The percentage of the original price that was discounted is 21.33%

Step-by-step explanation:

The original price of a bicycle was $375. Now it is on sale for $295.

The discounted price of a product is calculated as the percentage of discount that you want to apply multiplied by the price of the product. This is the amount of money that is discounted. But to calculate the sale price, the original price of the product must be subtracted minus the discounted quantity.

So, this expressed in this case is:

375-x*375=295

The value of x is the discount that you want to calculate expressed in decimal number. This result will then be multiplied by 100 to obtain the discount expressed as a percentage.

Isolating the value of x you get:

-x*375=295-375

-x*375=-80

x=(-80)÷(-375)

x=0.2133

As a percentage, it is 0.2133*100= 21.33%

<u><em> The percentage of the original price that was discounted is 21.33%</em></u>

  • [ Difference In Price / Original Price ] × 100%
  • [ ( 375 - 295 ) / 375 ] × 100%
  • =[ 80 / 375 ] × 100%
  • ( 64 / 3 )%
  • 21.3 reciprocal %

Hope this helps you!

Have an amazing day :)

Find the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line that has the given slope m and passes through the given point.
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

y=-1/5x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

use y=mx+b formula

plug in 5 for "x", -3 for "y" and plug in -1/5 into "m"

-3=-1/5(5)+b

multiply -1/5 and 5

-3=-1+b

add -1 on both sides

-2=b (b is ur y intercept)\

ik this might not make any sense but hope this helps
