A local discount store is famous for their motto, "Shop with us and you'll pay 20% less". Their claim is that every item in the

store is already marked down 20% off of retail prices. In this Sunday's ad, they are advertising a scuba mask and snorkel set at their discount price of $28. Use a percent model to determine the original retail price of the scuba mask and snorkel set.

Answer:

Original retail price: $35

Step-by-step explanation:

20% off means that the discounted price is equivalent to 80% (100% - 20%) of the retail price.  

Calling x the retail price of the scuba mask and snorkel set, then a discounted price of $28 means that this amount of money is 80% of x. Mathematically:

80*x/100 = $28

x = $28*100/80

x = $35

Use percentage multipliers:
$28/0.8 = $35
The original price of the set is $35.

Hope This Helps!

When you put a square root into exponential form, the square root turns into an exponential fraction. Since the square root is 2, our fraction would be 1/2

If our root was a cube root, our exponent would be 1/3, etc.

A family built a house in a beach resort area. In 1990, the house was 430 ft from the water. With erosion, the house was 400 ft
neonofarm [45]

We develop an equation for the given situation by first writing the general equation for lines,

                                y = mx + b

Substituting to this given the values given above,

(1990)                      430 = b

(2000)                      400 = m(10) + 430

The value of m from the equation in 2000 is -3. Thus, the equation of that relates the variables is,

                              y = -3x + 430
