100% of the price = $400
x % of the price = $320
we need to find x

using a proportion
100 : 400 = x : 320
100 * 320 = 400 * x
32000 = 400x
x = 32000 / 400
x = 80

That means the new price is 80% of the previous price.
100% - 80% = 20%
and based on this we can make a conclusion that the discount was 20%

I hope it is clear to you, feel free to ask anything about it :)

20% because 20% is $60 and you can keep adding $60 4 more times so there's 5 of $60

X = -3 

Pull out the like terms: -7x - 21 = -7 × ( x + 3) 

Solve: -7 = 0 

Solve: x + 3 = 0

Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation 

So, x = -3

The midpoint of \overline{\text{AB}}AB is M(-6, -4)M(−6,−4). If the coordinates of AA are (-4, -3)(−4,−3), what are the coordina
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

The coordinates of B is (-8,-5).

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint of line AB is M. The coordinate of M is (-6,-4).

The coordinates of A is (-4,-3)

We need to find the mid point of B.

If M(x,y) is the midpoint of the coordinates (x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂). The mid point theorem is used as follows :

M(x,y)=(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2})

Let the mid point of B is (x₂,y₂). Put (x,y) = (-6,-4), (x₁,y₁) = (-4,-3).

(-6,-4)=(\dfrac{-4+x_2}{2},\dfrac{-3+y_2}{2})\\\\\dfrac{-4+x_2}{2}=-6\ \text{and}\ \dfrac{-3+y_2}{2}=-4\\\\-4+x_2=-12\ \text{and}\ -3+y_2=-8\\\\x_2=-12+4\ \text{and}\ y_2=-8+3\\\\x_2=-8\ \text{and}\ y_2=-5

So, the coordinates of B is (-8,-5).
