<span>We can determine, a 30/25/15 series trade discount would be calculated as follows:

let X = retail price.

X - 0.30 </span>× X = Y    ⇒ first discounted price.
<span>
Y - 0.25 </span>× Y = Z    ⇒ second discounted price.
<span>
Z - 0.15*Z = T        </span>⇒ total discounted price.
<span>
X - 0.30 </span>× X = (1 - 0.30) × X = 0.70 × X = Y
<span>
Y - 0.25 </span>× Y = (1 - 0.25) × Y = 0.75 × Y = Z
<span>
Z - 0.15 </span>× Z  = (1 - 0.15) × Z  = 0.85 × Z = T
<span>
since Z = 0.85 </span>× Y, then 0.85 × Z = 0.85 × 0.75 × Y
<span>
since Y = 0.70 </span>× X, then 0.85 × Z = 0.85 × 0.75 × 0.70 × X
<span>
based on the above, then T = total discount


                                               = 0.85 </span>× 0.75 × 0.70 × X


                                               = 0.44625X<span>

30/25/15 series discount is equivalent to a total discount of 44.625%

From the second and third steps, we know that m∠TUV = m∠1 + m∠2. We also know that m∠XWV = m∠3 + m∠4. Since ∠TUV and ∠XMV both measure 90°, we can set their measures equal to each other:

m∠TUV = m∠XMV

or equivalently:

m∠1 + m∠2 = m∠3 + m∠4

Next, we can use the fact that ∠1 ≅ ∠3 to say that m∠1 = m∠3, while allows us to replace one with the other. Here, we'll replace m∠3 with m∠1:

m∠1 + m∠2 = m∠1 + m∠4

Subtracting m∠1 from either side:

m∠2 = m∠4, which implies that ∠2 ≅ ∠4, as we wanted to show.

Select three unit rates that can be used To describe the price of juice one dollar for 12 ounces $1.59 for a pint two dollars fo
enot [183]

Answer:

$1.59 for a pint,

two dollars for a quart,

299 for a gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, rate is used to compare different kinds of quantities and it is the ratio of the quantities,

Also, unit rate states the amount of first quantity corresponding to the unit amount of second quantity,

When we talk about the unit rates for a quantity,

Then it shows the price of the quantity per unit amount.

Thus, by the above explanation it is clear that,

The unit price for representing the price of juice would be,

$1.59 for a pint,

two dollars for a quart,

299 for a gallon.

Note : we do not consider 'one dollar for 12 ounces' a unit price because it is not the price per 1 ounce.

Answer:

The required formula is:

                                                          {\displaystyle \ a_{n}=a_{1}+(n-1)d}

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of squares of the the first term = 4

The total number of squares of the the second term = 7

The total number of squares of the the third term = 10

so,

a_1=4

a_2=7

a_3=10

Finding the common difference d

d=a_3-a_2=10-7=3

d=a_2-a_1=7-4=3

As the common difference 'd' is same, it means the sequence is in arithmetic.

So

If the initial term of an arithmetic progression is {\displaystyle a_{1}} and the common difference of successive members is d, then the nth term of the sequence (a_n) is given by:

                         {\displaystyle \ a_{n}=a_{1}+(n-1)d}

Therefore, the required formula is:

                                                          {\displaystyle \ a_{n}=a_{1}+(n-1)d}

Is the following relation a function {(3, -5), (1,2), (-1, -4), (-2, 2)
mel-nik [20]

Answer: yes

Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, we are asked to determine if the relation shown here is a function. The easiest way to determine if a relation is a function is by looking at the x-coordinates. Notice that none of the coordinates repeat so this relation is a function.

(WILL GIVE BRAINLY) My family of six eats 24 meatballs and four pounds of pasta on spaghetti night. How many meatballs and how m
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

Well, first, you have to find out how much food each person needs. Assuming everyone eats the same amount, you divide 24 by 6, getting 4 meatballs per person. Then you divide the 4 pounds of pasta by 6, getting .75 pounds of pasta per person. Then you multiply both of those numbers, 4 and .75 by 8, since that is how many people will be eating that night. You get 32 meatballs, and 6 pounds of pasta.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps.
