Becca bought a shirt that was 25% off and saved $6. What was the original price of the shirt?

Mathematics

Answer:

$24

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 25% is off the price of the shirt, she bought the shirt at 75% of it's cost price. This difference between the full cost and the 75% is what she saved (i.e. 25% was the savings)

So, if the shirt costs x dollars:

$6 = 25% of x

= ( 25/100)*X = 0.25X

X = $6/0.25 = $6x4

X = $24

Answer:

JM = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Because MN║JL,

\frac{MK}{JM} = \frac{KN}{NL}

\frac{5}{2x + 4}  = \frac{6}{12}  =  \frac{1}{2}

2(5) = 1(2x + 4)

10 = 2x + 4

2x = 6

x = 3

JM = 2x + 4 = 2(3) + 4 = 6 + 4 = 10

How to find the area
sp2606 [1]
You know from trigonometry that AB = 15 units, so the area of the larger triangle ACB is (1/2)*15*15 = 112.5 units^2.

Then the area of triangle ADE is
.. (112.5 -62.5) = 50 . . . . units^2

Suppose it is known that for a given differentiable function y=f(x), its tangent line (local linearization) at the point where a
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

y(-4) = 5

y'(-4) = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!

Since the tangent line T and the curve y must coincide at x=-4

y(-4) = T(-4) = 5

On the other hand, the derivative of the curve evaluated at -4 y'(x=-4) must be the slope of the tangent line. Which inspecting the tangent line T(x) is -7

That is:

y'(-4) = -7

A map is being reduced to from a pocket sized version. What is the scale factor being used to reduce the map?
Aneli [31]

Answer and explanation:

If a map is being reduced to form a pocket sized version then it is being proportionality reduced a smaller size that is required. Cartographers enlarge and reduce maps proportionally to serve different purposes in their study. The map is still the same but smaller in size.

If on a map 2cm represents 2 meters, that is 0.02/2 which evaluates to 1/100, then we are comparing distance and ensuring they are proportional using scale factor(our scale factor is 1:100 here)
