A $155 handbag is on sale for 25% off. what is the sale price of the handbag.

2 answers:

5 0

25% off means that the original percent subtract 25%, so the original percent is 100%-25%=75%, and we know the the new price is only 75% of the original price.
To find the sale price of the handbag, take:
$155×75%=$116.25. As a result, the sale price of the handbag is $116.25. Hope it help!

$155 handbag and it has 25% off

To do this you multiply 155 times .25

155 x .25 = 38.75

Now because it says the word "off" in the problem, you substract $38.75 from $155

155 - 38.75 = $116.25

The sale of the handbag is $116.25

Daniel uses \large \frac{2}{3}cup of orange juice for every \large \frac{1}{4}cup of carrot juice to make his drink. Enter the n

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

$\dfrac{8}{3}\ \text{cups of orange juice}$ or $2\dfrac{2}{3}\ \text{cups of orange juice}$ is used

Step-by-step explanation:

Daniel uses the proportions of $\dfrac{2}{3}$ cups of orange juice and $\dfrac{1}{4}$ cups of carrot juice to make a mixed juice.

Now, in the question 1 cup of carrot juice is used. So 4 times of the proportion of the carrot juice is used. Accordingly 4 times of the cups of orange juice will be used.

$\dfrac{2}{3}\ \text{cups of orange juice}=\dfrac{1}{4}\ \text{cups of carrot juice}\\\Rightarrow 4\times \dfrac{2}{3}\ \text{cups of orange juice}=4\times \dfrac{1}{4}\ \text{cups of carrot juice}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{8}{3}\ \text{cups of orange juice}=1\ \text{cup of carrot juice}$

So for one cup of carrot juice $\dfrac{8}{3}\ \text{cups of orange juice}$ or $2\dfrac{2}{3}\ \text{cups of orange juice}$ is used.

Heyy pls help! worth 20 points, and please only help if you know the answer. also no links those r kinda annoying lol

Step 1: Find the slope:

$m= \dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}= \dfrac{-2-7}{4-(-2)} = \dfrac{-9}{6}= -\dfrac{3}{2}$

This gives you $y=-\dfrac{3}{2}x+b$ , but we need to find b.

To find b, substitute in one (x,y) pair and it doesn't matter which one. I'll go with (4,-2):

$\begin{aligned}-2&=-\dfrac{3}{2}(4)+b\\[0.5em]-2&=-6+b\\[0.5em]4&=b\end{aligned}$

Now take that b-value and plug in into the slope-intercept form:

$y=-\dfrac{3}{2}x+4$

It's always a good idea to toss in the other x-value from the other point, to make sure it checks out.

2(x-3)-12 = -4<br> How do I solve this equations

deff fn [24]

Answer:

x= 7

Step-by-step explanation:

1st step: Multiply the factor (outside number) with the numbers and variable(s) in the box. This results in 2(x-3) = 2x-6

2nd Step: continue the rest of the equation since there are no more brackets left so 2x-6-12=-4

3rd Step: send -12 to the other side of the equation (side changes sign changes) so it will become 2x-6=-4+12 (You are actually supposed to make the variable alone on one side of the equation so that you would be able to calculate its value)

4th step: 2x-6=8 ---> send -6 to the other side as well which will then result in 2x=14

5th step: since 2 is being multiplied by x, when you send it to the other side (to make x alone) you will divide 14 by 2 ( sign of 2 changes from multiplication to division)

Final Step: x=7
