Setler79 [48]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

Comparing the two similar triangles

JK/MN = JL/MP

25/30 = 20/(4X - 4)

CROSS MULTIPLY

25(4X - 4) = 30 × 20

100X - 100 = 600

COLLECTING LIKE TERMS

100X = 600 + 100

100X = 700

DIVIDING THROUGH BY 100

X = 700/100

X = 7

Martinez purchased a pair of shoes on a web site. the original price of the shoes was $75. she used a coupon code to recive 20%
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

$9 or 9% less

Step-by-step explanation:

Original Price = OP

$75= OP

75 x .2 (20% discount) = 15

$15 discount

$75 - $15 = $60

$60 x .1 (service fee) = 6

$60 + $6= $66

Op ($75) - $66 = 9

$9 less than OP

How I check the percentage (probaly not how ur supposed to but ah well)

75 = 100%

75 + 25 = 100 but 25 more than 100%

66 + 25 = 91, also makes 75 100% again

100%-91%=9%
