Answer:

Mr. Chang received the better discount

Step-by-step explanation:

Mrs. Robinson bought a novel at a bookstore on sale for 20% off its regular price of $29.99

The price of the novel at a bookstore = 29.99 -(20% × 29.99)

                                                              = 29.99 - (0.20 × 29.99)

                                                              = 29.99 - 5.998

                                                              = $23.99

Mr. Chang bought the same novel at a different bookstore for 10% off its regular price of $25.

The price of the novel at a different bookstore = 25 - (10% × 25)

                                                                              = 25 - (0.10 × 25)

                                                                              = 25 - 2.5

                                                                              = $22.50

Mr. Chang bought the novel at the price of $22.50 and Mrs. Robinson bought the same novel at the price of $23.99.

Therefore, Mr. Chang received the better discount.

Mr. Robinson gets $5.99 off which is $24.00
Mr. Chang gets $2.50 off which is $22.50

Work: 
29.99x.20=5.99     29.99-5.99 = 24.00
25.00x.10=2.50     25.00-2.50 = 22.50

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

To subtract 2 1/2 - 1 3/5, first, you need a common denominator for the fractions, which is 10.

The subtraction becomes

2 5/10 - 1 6/10

Now you need to subtract 1 6/10 from 2 5/10.

Since the fraction part involves the subtraction 5/10 - 6/10, we need to borrow. You must change 2 5/10 to a mixed numeral with a larger numerator than 5, so you can subtract 6/210 from it.

Start with 2 5/10.

Borrow 1 from the 2. The 1 you borrow from 2 will be added to 5/10.

You think of the borrowed 1 as 10/10. Now you add 10/10 to 5/10.

2 5/10 becomes 1 15/10. Now that the fraction has a numerator grater than 6, you can do the subtraction.

2 5/10 - 1 6/10 =

= 1 15/10 - 1 6/10

Suppose you have $20 to spend on party decorations. Balloons are $0.05 each, streamers are $0.25 each, and noisemakers are $0.40
sergejj [24]

[C] 0.05b + 0.25s + 0.4n = 20

b = balloons

s = streamers

n = noisemaker

Since they already give us the price of each item we just need to add a variable at the end of each one since we don't know how many of each item is bought. Adding the costs of all the party supplies should not go over $20. We can automatically eliminate B and D. We can also eliminate A because the prices of each item are incorrect. Therefore, C is the correct answer.

Best of Luck!

Saturn's rings extend to about 120,000 kilometers above Saturn's equator. Saturn's diameter at its equator is also about 120,000
Allisa [31]

<u>Answer:</u>

1130400 km

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We know the formula for circumference of a circle:

<em>Circumference = 2\pi r</em>

So we need the radius of Saturn ring to calculate its circumference.

We are given Saturn's diamter which is 120,000km; and know that Saturn's ring extends for about 120,000 km from the circumference of the Saturn.

Therefore, the radius of Saturn's ring will be 120000 km plus half of the diameter of Saturn:

Radius of Saturn's ring = 120000 + (120000/2) = 180000 km

Circumference of Saturn's rings = 2 x 3.14 x 180000 = 1130400 km
