Answer: The required expression is,

$ 40(0.85)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The original cost of the videogame = $ 40,

Discount percentage = 15%,

So, the amount of discount = 15% of 40

= (0.15)40 ( ∵ 1% = 0.01 )

Hence, the cost of the videogame = original cost - discount

= 40 - (0.15)40

= 40 (1-0.15)

= 40(0.85)

Which is the required expression .

Minh wrote the following number sentence 2.6 + 0.33= 59. Use estimation to show that Minh's answer is incorrect.

Ne4ueva [31]

2.6 rounds to 3, and 0.33 would round to 0.50. Adding 3 and 0.50 together would equal to 3.50. 59 and 3.50 are no where near to each other which concludes Minh is incorrect.

Elza [17]

Consider the right triangle ABC with legs AB=4, AC=3 and hypotenuse BC=5. Angle B has
$\sin B=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} = \frac{3}{5}$ and
$\cos B = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} = \frac{4}{5}$ .

Since O lies in second quadrant $\cos O\ \textless \ 0$ and
$\cos O= -\cos B =- \frac{4}{5}$ .
Answer: $\cos O=- \frac{4}{5}$ .
