A=P×(0.8)
A is the price after the markdown
P is the original price
0.8 is the multiplier because 1-(80/100)=0.8
80/100 is the same as 80%, which is the remaining value when 20% of the value of the item is deducted.

DiKsa [7]

Answer: The different possible solutions are 42, 21, 31 and 80.

Explanation:

The given expression is,

$7+3\cdot 4+2$

Case 1.

$(7+3)\cdot 4+2=10\cdot 4+2$

$(7+3)\cdot 4+2=40+2$

$(7+3)\cdot 4+2=42$

Case 2.

$7+(3\cdot 4)+2=7+12+2$

$7+(3\cdot 4)+2=21$

Case 3.

$7+3\cdot (4+2)=7+3\cdot 8$

$7+3\cdot (4+2)=7+24$

$7+3\cdot (4+2)=31$

Case 4.

$(7+3)\cdot (4+2)=10\cdot 8$

$(7+3)\cdot (4+2)=80$

How do I solve this problem? You drive your car on a cold day (20^oF Outside) the engine overheats to about (220^oF). When you p

GaryK [48]

$ln(T- \frac{20}{200})=-0.11t \\ e^{ln(T- \frac{20}{200})}=e^{-0.11t} \\ T- \frac{20}{200} =e^{-0.11t} \\ T-0.1=e^{-0.11t} \\ T=e^{-0.11t}+0.1$
Then, now that we have solved for T, we can evaluate and solve for t=20 minutes.
$T=e^{-0.11t}+0.1 \\ T=e^{-0.11*20}+0.1 \\ T=e^{-2.2}+0.1 \\ T=0.11+0.1 \\ T=0.21$

You are wakeboarding on a river. You travel 2 miles downstream to a marina for supplies, and then you travel 3 miles upstream to

Zielflug [23.3K]

Let x represent the speed of of boat.

We have been given that the river current is 3 miles per hour.

The speed of boat upstream will be $x-3$ .

The speed of boat downstream would be $x+3$ .

$\text{Time}=\frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}}$

We have been given that you travel 2 miles downstream to a marina for supplies, and then you travel 3 miles upstream to a dock.

We can represent this information in an equation as:

$\text{Time}=\frac{2}{x+3}+\frac{3}{x-3}$

Since the speed of the boat is 18 miles per hour, so we will substitute $x=18$ in above equation and solve for time.

$\text{Time}=\frac{2}{18+3}+\frac{3}{18-3}$

$\text{Time}=\frac{2}{21}+\frac{3}{15}$

$\text{Time}=\frac{2}{21}+\frac{1}{5}$

$\text{Time}=\frac{2\cdot 5}{21\cdot 5}+\frac{1\cdot 21}{5\cdot 21}$

$\text{Time}=\frac{10}{105}+\frac{21}{105}$

$\text{Time}=\frac{31}{105}$

$\text{Time}=0.295238095$

Since time is in hours, so let us convert our given time in minutes.

1 hour = 60 minutes.

$\text{Time}=0.295238095\times 60\text{ minutes}$

$\text{Time}=17.7142857\text{ minutes}$

Rounding to nearest tenth of minute.

$\text{Time}\approx 17.7\text{ minutes}$

Therefore, it will take approximately 17.7 minutes for the boat to take the trip.
