What does 20% off the regular price mean

2 answers:

5 0

20% off the regular price means that 20% is being multiplied from the original price and then subtracted from. For example, if you were to be buying a new fur coat for $50 and the store is having 20% off on it, you would multiply 20% or 0.2 to 50 (the original price of the coat) which would be 10. Then, you would subtract 10 from 50 making your new price $40. This would be an example of 20% off of a regular price.

Take the regular price, multiply it by .2, subtract that off of the regular price. What it means is 20% of the regular price is taken away from the regular price.

topjm [15]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$A(-3,-2) and B(1,6).\\\\x_1 = -3\\y_1 = -2\\x_2 = 1\\y_2 =6\\\frac{y-y_1}{x-x_1} =\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} \\\frac{y -(-2)}{x -(-3)} =\frac{6-(-2)}{1-(-3)}\\\frac{y+2}{x+3} = \frac{6+2}{1+3} \\\frac{y+2}{x+3} = \frac{8}{4} \\Cross-multiply\\4(y+2) =8(x+3)\\4y +8 =8x+24\\4y = 8x +24-8\\4y = 8x+16 \\OR\\ y = 2x+4$

the side of an equilateral triangle are8 units long. what is the length of the altitude of the triangle?

DIA [1.3K]

So, the triangle is equilateral, all its sides are equal⇒

AB=BC=AC=8

In an equilateral triangle, the height is also the median, so it divides the sides into 2 equal parts⇒

AO=OC=8:2=4

by the Pythagorean theorem

$8^2=4^2+BO^2\\BO^2=64-16\\BO=\sqrt{48} \\BO=4\sqrt{3}$

Answer: BO=4√3

A two gallon container had all of its dimensions tripled. How many gallons does the new container hold?

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In this situation if the two gallon container will have all of its dimensions tripled, then that means the the volume of the container will also get tripled.

When all the dimensions of a shape are changed, the volume will then also change accordingly.

Since the original container held 2 gallons, we will then solve for the value by simply raising 2 to the power of 3.

2³ = 8

Now why did we raise the number of gallons by three instead of multiplying it directly by 3?

We did that, because we need to consider that the entire container had all of its dimensions tripled. When a shapes dimensions are all increased, this means that it will grow exponentially.
