Answer:

45.71 = original price

Step-by-step explanation:

The sale price is equal to the original price minus the discount

sale price = original price - discount

The discount is equal to the original price  times the percent off

discount = original price * percent off

Substitute into the first equation

sale price = original price - original price * percent off

Factor out the original price

sale price = original price (1-percent off)

We know the sale price=32 and the discount = 30% = .3

32 = original price (1-.3)

32 = original price (.7)

Divide each side by .7

32/.7 = original price (.7)/.7

45.71 = original price

Answer:

first one is 82% second is 214%

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 2: Multiply 0.82 by 100. 0.82 times 100 = 82

Step 1: Divide 212 by 99 to get the number as a decimal. 212 / 99 = 2.14

The Gaineys and the Arnolds are saving money for a trip to Utah to go snowboarding. The Arnolds are going to save a nickel on th
Debora [2.8K]

Write a recursive and explicit formula for each option.

  • The Arnolds

Save a nickel on the first day of the month and then double the amount each day for a month

=> a1 =0.05

=> a2 = a1* 2 = 0.05*2

=> a3 = a2*2 = a1* 2*2

..............................................

=>recursive an = a_{n-1} *2

=> explicit an = 0.05*2^{n-1}

  • The Gaineys

Start their savings by saving  $10  on the first day and then  $10  each day of the month

=> a1 = 10

=> a2 = a1 + 10 = 20

=> a3 = a2 +10 = 20 +10 =30

........................................................

=> recursive an = a_{n-1} +10

=> explicit an = 10 + 10( n-1)

Hope it will find you well.
