Hey there!

To start, first subtract 45 from 60 to find the amount of money taken off from the discount:
60-45
=15

Because 15 dollars have been taken off the original price, you can find the percent of discount by setting up this proportion where x represents the percent of discount:
15/60=x/100

Now, cross multiply and solve for x:
1500=60x
x=25

Therefore, your discount would be 25%.

Hope this helps and have a marvelous day! :)

Given that f(x) = x^2 – 2x - 63 and g(x) = x + 7, find (f - g)(x)
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

(f - g)(x) = x² - 3x - 70

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Distributive Property

<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Combining Like Terms

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

f(x) = x² - 2x - 63

g(x) = x + 7

(f - g)(x) is f(x) - g(x)

<u>Step 2: Find (f - g)(x)</u>

  1. Substitute:                               (f - g)(x) = x² - 2x - 63 - (x + 7)
  2. Distribute -1:                            (f - g)(x) = x² - 2x - 63 - x - 7
  3. Combine like terms (x):          (f - g)(x) = x² - 3x - 63 - 7
  4. Combine like terms (Z):          (f - g)(x) = x² - 3x - 70

Serggg [28]

Answer:

Arithmetic Sequence:  

d=4

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an arithmetic sequence since there is a common difference between each term. In this case, adding  4 o the previous term in the sequence gives the next term. In other words, aₙ=a₁+d(n-1)
