Answer:

The original price was $288.00.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, identify your rate and your base. Your rate is 20% and your base is $240. Next, take 20% and convert it to a decimal, making .20. Third, multiply the base by the new rate, $240 x .20, but don't line up the decimals. This will give you $48.00 (your number will usually get smaller if you're working with decimals). Finally, add $48.00 to $240.00. This will give you $288.00.

The sum of numbers or expression involves adding the expressions and the numbers together.

Assume that the sum of the degrees is given as:

$Sum = 3 + 4 - 2 + 1$

The above sum can be rewritten as:

$Sum = 3 + 4 +(- 2) + 1$

Take the sum of all the numbers (including -2 in bracket)

$Sum = 6$

If the sum of the degrees is given as $Sum = 3 + 4 - 2 + 1$ , then the number of years he worked would be 6

In the figure shown, ABCD is a square and triangle CDE is equilateral. What is the degree measure of angle CBE?

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

angle CBE=15 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

angle ECD is 60 degrees and EC=CD because equilateral triangle

angle DCB is 90 degrees and CB=CD because square

angle ECD +angle DCB= angle ECB

60+90=150=angle ECB

since triangle ECB has legs EC and CB equal in length, then it is an isosceles triangle.

so angles CBB and CBE are equal

angle CBE=(180-150)/2

angle CBE=15 degrees

Find the sale of the item. Round to two decimal places if necessary.

Jet001 [13]

First multiply the original price by the discount. (250.99 x .78 = 195.7722) Then subtract that number from the original. (259.99 - 195.7722 = 55.2178) Then round to 2 decimals because dealing with money. Answer: $55.22

The median would be 13.5 because that's the middle of all the numbers lined up from smallest to largest and the mean would be 12.7 because that's all the numbers added up divided by how many numbers there are
