Skylar needs to buy a pair of dress pants for $40, a shirt for $30, and a tie for $20. Skylar has three coupons. The first coupo

n gives him x percent off on a shirt. The second coupon gives him y percent off on the dress pants. The third coupon gives him z percent off on his total purchase. He cannot combine the coupon for the total purchase with the other two coupons. These expressions give both possibilities for the total cost of Skylar's purchase after the coupons are applied. The variables represent percentages as decimals. (1−x)30+(1−y)40+20 (1−z)(40+30+20) Skylar uses the dress pants coupon. Which part of the expression represents the percent that Skylar will pay for the dress pants?

Answer:

The answer will be :(1-y)40

Step-by-step explanation:

As given, Skylar needs to buy a pair of dress pants for $40, a shirt for $30, and a tie for $20.

The second coupon gives him y percent off on the dress pants.

So, he is getting y coupon off on $40.

Hence, the part in the expression that represents the percent that Skylar will pay for the dress pants would be the (1-y)40.

The variables X, Y, and Z all represent the percent that Skylar will be discounted. The parts of the equation that represent what Skylar will pay are (1-x), (1-y), and (1-z). Hope I helped :)

Lorne subtracted 6x3 – 2x + 3 from –3x3 + 5x2 + 4x – 7. Use the drop-down menus to identify the steps Lorne used to find the dif
Novay_Z [31]

Answer: Step 1: Reverse the signs of 6x^3-2x + 3 expression.

Step 2: Removing parenthesis

Step 3: Grouping like terms

Step 4: Combing like terms

Step 5: Writing the final expression in standard form

Step-by-step explanation: First expression :6x^3-2x + 3

Second expression : -3x^3+5x^2+4x-7.

We need to subtract 6x^3-2x + 3 from -3x^3+5x^2+4x-7.

Step 1: Reverse the signs of 6x^3-2x + 3 expression.

(-3x^3+5x^2+4x-7)+(-6x3+2x-3)

Step 2: Removing parenthesis

(-3x^3) +5x^2+4x + (-7) + (-6x^3) + 2x + (-3)

Step 3: Grouping like terms

[-3x^3) + (-6x^3)] + [4x + 2x] + [(-7) + (-3)] + [5x^2]

Step 4: Combing like terms

-9x^3 + 6x + (-10) + 5x^2

Step 5: Writing the final expression in standard form

-9x^3 + 5x^2 + 6x-10

A serving of filet mignon is generally considered to be about 1/4
dybincka [34]
If 1 serving = 1/4 pound, then 4 servings = 1 pound. 6 pounds *4=24 servings. That leaves 1/3 of a pound. 1/4 pound is less than 1/3 pound, so you get one more serving.

That makes 25 servings, and 1/12 of a pound left over.

How do you know it is 1/12? Well, LCD (lowest common denominator) shows that 1/3-1/4= 4/12-3/12=1/12.
