The discount is $1.19 unless you have to round up than it is $1.20. in order to solve this problem you would set up a proportion. So your proportion would be x over 7.99 = 15 over 100. Than you would cross multiply. 7.99*15=119.85. and 100*x=100x. than u divided both sides by a 100. than x= 1.19. which 1.19 is the discount.

How do you solve this system of linear equation by substitution <br><br>x-3y=-12<br>y=2x+9
Ainat [17]
Finding x:
If y=2x+9, substitute y into the equation x-3y=-12.
You will get:  x-3(2x+9)=-12
Now, distribute:  x-6x-27=-12
Add like terms:  -5x-27=-12
Add 27 to both sides:  -5x=15
Divide both sides by -5:  x=-3

Now, substitute this value of x into the equation to find y:  y=2(-3)+9
Multiply:  y=-6+9
Add:  y=3

Here is the solution:  (x,y)=(-3,3)

Hope this explanation helped!

if one adult is randomly chosen from the group, what is the probability that the adult does not use a cell phone app for shoppin
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

1/100

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is 1/100 because we don't know how many people are in the group but do know that only 1 person has been taken from the group and the probability will be 1 out of how many people are in the group so we just put 100 there as we don't know how many people are in the group.

<em>Ps: Sorry if this is wrong, this is just a guess.</em>

What us the value of the discriminant of the quadratic equation -2^2=-8x+8 and what does its value mean about the number of a re
svlad2 [7]

ANSWER

The discriminant is zero.

The given equation has one real root.

EXPLANATION

The given quadratic equation is:

- 2 {x}^{2}  =  - 8x + 8

We rewrite this in the form;

a {x}^{2}  + bx + c = 0

- 2 {x}^{2}  + 8x  - 8 = 0

This means that,

a=-2, b= 8, c=-8

The discriminant is given by;

D=b² - 4ac

That is:

D =  {8}^{2}  - 4( - 2)( - 8)

D =  64  - 64 = 0

Therefore the discriminant is zero.

This tells us that the quadratic equation has one real root.

In order words, the given quadratic equation has a repeated real root.

If you could help me with these questions I would appreciate it!
Dominik [7]

Answer:

So if we count all of the different squares we get that there are 36 squares aka 6*6. So no we need to get how many of the squares add up to greater than 8. Those would be 10/36. 10 of them are greater than 8. So we simplify and we get 5/18. 5/18 is the answer. Hope this helped

Pls can any one solve this​
belka [17]

All the angles make a full circle which needs to equal 360 degrees.

Add all the angles together to equal 360:

X + (x-10) + (4x-20) +(2x-10) + (x +10) = 360

Combine like terms:

9x -30 = 360

Add 30 to both sides:

9x = 390

Divide both sides by 9:

X = 390/9

X = 43.3333. ( 43 and 1/3)
