First the store raised the price of a pot by 20%. Then they announced a 20% discount on the pot. Is the customer going to pay mo

andrezito [222]

Answer:

less

Step-by-step explanation:

An increase of 20% makes the price 120% of the original price.

A discount of 20% makes the discounted price 80% of the previous price.

Original price: x

20% increase in price: 1.2 * x

20% discount over the raised price: 0.8 * 1.2 * x

Now we multiply the numbers in the last expression and compare the result with x.

0.8 * 1.2 * x = 0.96x

0.96 is less than x, so the customer pays less than the original price.

Find the Y-coordinate of point P that lies 1/3 along segment RS, where R (-7, -2) and S (2, 4).

QveST [7]

Solution:

Given that the point P lies 1/3 along the segment RS as shown below:

To find the y coordinate of the point P, since the point P lies on 1/3 along the segment RS, we have

$\begin{gathered} RP:PS \\ \Rightarrow\frac{1}{3}:\frac{2}{3} \\ thus,\text{ we have} \\ 1:2 \end{gathered}$

Using the section formula expressed as

$[\frac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n},\frac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}]$

In this case,

$\begin{gathered} m=1 \\ n=2 \end{gathered}$

where

$\begin{gathered} x_1=-7 \\ y_1=-2 \\ x_2=2 \\ y_2=4 \end{gathered}$

Thus, by substitution, we have

$\begin{gathered} [\frac{1(2)+2(-7)}{1+2},\frac{1(4)+2(-2)}{1+2}] \\ \Rightarrow[\frac{2-14}{3},\frac{4-4}{3}] \\ =[-4,\text{ 0\rbrack} \end{gathered}$

Hence, the y-coordinate of the point P is

$0$

PLEASE HELP ASAP

Vlad [161]

Answer:

1 : 6 . . . . or 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

We know 1 foot is 12 inches, so 5 feet is 5·12 = 60 inches. Zachary's scale factor is ...

drawing size : actual size = 10 inches : 60 inches = 1 : 6

This can also be written as the fraction 1/6.

What is an equation of the line that passing through the points (-2, -5) and (4, 7) ?

monitta

Answer:

$y=2x-1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope-intercept formula: $y=mx+b$ where m is slope and b the y-intercept.

$(-2,-5)(4,7)$

Use the slope formula for when you have two points:

$\frac{y(2)-y(1)}{x(2)-x(1)}=\frac{rise}{run}$

Rise over run is the change in the y-axis over the change in the x-axis. Insert values:

$\frac{7-(-5)}{4-(-2)}$

Simplify parentheses (negative+negative=positive)

$\frac{7+5}{4+2}$

Simplify

$\frac{12}{6}=2$

2 is the slope:

$y=2x+b$

Now use one of the points to find the y-intercept by substituting the x and y values into the equation. Solve for b:

(4,7)

$y=2x+b\\7=2(4)+b$

$7=8+b\\7-8=8-8+b\\7-8=b\\-1=b\\b=-1$

The y-intercept is -1. Insert into the equation. Change the + symbol to -:

$y=2x-1$

Done.
