Subtract 7a from both sides giving you 10=-5a and divide everything by 5. This gives you a=-2
Answer:
40%
Step-by-step explanation:
Original price = x
Sale = 20% off
20% / 100 = 0.2 to convert from a percent to a decimal
Sale = x - 20% of x = x - 0.2x = 0.8x
Sale price = y = 0.8x
Reduction of sale prices = 25% = 0.25
Reduction = y - 25% of y = y - 0.25y = 0.75y
End price in terms of original price (x):
0.75y = 0.75(0.8)x
= 0.6x
End price = 0.6 or 60% of original price, coming out to a 100-60 = 40% overall percentage reduction
Triangle 3 because its length is longer than the others.
45th percentile means that 45% of the data fall below that number while 55% (that is, 100-45) fall above it.
Now, arranging the number in ascending order;
$60, $85, $95, $105, $120, $145, $155, $175, $190, $215, $235, $240, $260, $285, $325
The total number of counts = 15
Then,
Index = 15*45% = 15*0.45 = 6.75
Round up,
Index = 7
The,
7th number = $155
Therefore, 45th percentile value of the data = $155
