The correct answer is:  [A]:  " x <span>< 12 " .
__________________________________________________
Given:
__________________________________________________
  " 5(x + 5) </span><span>< 85 " ;  Simplify/ solve for "x" ; 
__________________________________________________
Method 1)
__________________________________________________

Note the "distributive property of multiplication" :
__________________________________________________
  a(b +  c)  =   ab + ac ;

  a(b – c)   =  ab – ac .
__________________________________________________
So, take the "left-hand side" of the inequality; and expand:
__________________________________________________
</span>  →  5(x + 5) = (5*x) + (5*5) = 5x + 25 ; 
<span>
Now, rewrite the inequality:

  </span>→  5x + 25 < 85  ;

Subtract "25" from each side of the inequality ; 

  →  5x + 25 – 25 < 85 – 25  ;

to get:
_______________________________________
  →  5x  <  60  ;

Divide each side of the inequality by "5" ; 

  →  5x / 5  <  60 / 5 ; 

  →  x  <  12 ;  which is:  Answer choice:  [A]:  " x < 12 " .
_______________________________________

Method 2)
_______________________________________
Given:
_______________________________________
 " 5(x + 5) < 85 " ;  Simplify/ solve for "x" ; 
_______________________________________
 Divide EACH SIDE of the equation by "5" ; 

  [5(x + 5) ] / 5 < 85 / 5 ; 

to get: 

  →  x + 5 < 17 ; 

Subtract "5" from EACH SIDE of the inequality:

  →  x + 5 – 5  <  17 – 5 ; 

to get:

  →  x  <  12  ;  which is:  Answer choice:  [A]:  " x < 12 " .

The best sampling strategy would be a stratified sample.

<h3>How are samples classified?</h3>

Samples may be classified as:

  • Convenient: Drawn from a conveniently available pool.
  • Random: All the options into a hat and drawn some of them.
  • Systematic: Every kth element is taken.
  • Cluster: Divides population into groups, called clusters, and each element in the cluster is surveyed.
  • Stratified: Also divides the population into groups. Then, a equal proportion of each group is surveyed.

For this problem, the 4 different brands of the recorders must be considered, hence the buyers should be divided into groups, and a proportion of each group should be sampled, hence a stratified sample should be used.

Anna buys a sweater for $25.60, and it is on sale for 35% off. What is the amount of the discount?
inysia [295]

To find the answer of this question, you have to multiply 25.60*0.35, since 35% equals 0.35 and the original price of the sweater was 25.60. After you do this, you should get $8.96 as the amount of the discount.
