Answer:

-60%

-$50

Step-by-step explanation:

As the statement says that the price of the jacket was reduced by 40%, to determine the percent that the sale price represents from the original price, you have to subtract 40% from 100% that represents the original price:

100%-40%= 60%

This means that $30 represents 60% of the original price.

-To determine the original price of the jacket, you can use the rule of three:

$30 →  60%

 x    ←  100%

x=(100*30)/60= 50

According to this, the original price of a jacket was $50.

NISA [10]

Answer:

The volume of the triangular prism: 59.2 ft^{3}

The value of the concrete used is: 16*4 = $64

Step-by-step explanation:

I think your question is missed of key information, allow me to add in and hope it will fit the original one.  Please have a look at the attached photo

My answer:

As we know that, the formula to find out the volume of the triangular prism is:

V = \frac{1}{2} a*b*h when h is the height and a&b are the length of the two square edges. So we have:

  • V = \frac{1}{2}*4*4*7.4 = 59.2 ft^{3}

To find the concrete used in the ramp if the cost of concrete is $ 4.00 per cubic foot, we need to know the area of the ramp, which is:

S = 4*4 = 16 ft^{2}

Hence, the value of the concrete used is: 16*4 = $64

Describe and correct the error in writing an equation of the line shown
Rudiy27

Answer:

y  = -\frac{3}{5}x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

(x_1,y_1) = (0,4)

(x_2,y_2) = (5,1)

The attachment completes the question

From the attachment, the slope of the line was calculated as:

m = \frac{1-4}{0-5}

This step is inaccurate because the slope of a line is calculated using

m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Which gives

m = \frac{1-4}{5-0}

m = \frac{-3}{5}

m = -\frac{3}{5}

The line equation is then calculated using:

y -y_1 = m(x - x_1)

Substitute values for m, x1 and y1

y - 4 = -\frac{3}{5}(x - 0)

y - 4 = -\frac{3}{5}(x)

Open bracket

y - 4 = -\frac{3}{5}x

Make y the subject

y  = -\frac{3}{5}x+4
