we know that

the original price is \$85.79

The original price represent the  100\%

so

1) First discount of 10\%

Find the new price 1

\$85.79*(1-0.10)=\$77.21

2) Second successive  discount of 5\%

Find the new price 2

\$77.21*(1-0.05)=\$73.35

3)   Find by proportion the total percentage of discount

\frac{100}{85.79} \frac{\%}{\$} =\frac{x}{73.35} \frac{\%}{\$} \\ \\x=100*73.35/85.79 \\ \\x=85.5 \%

therefore

<u>the answer is the option D</u>

85.5 \%

Answer:

d =7.6

Step-by-step explanation:

(-3,11) =(x_1,y_1)\\(-6,4)=(x_2,y_2)\\\\\mathrm{Compute\:the\:distance\:between\:}\left(x_1,\:y_1\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right):\\\quad \sqrt{\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2}\\\\=\sqrt{\left(-6-\left(-3\right)\right)^2+\left(4-11\right)^2}\\= \sqrt{(-6+3)^2+(4-11)^2}\\ \\d= \sqrt{(-3)^2+(-7)^2} \\\\d = \sqrt{9+49}\\ \\d = \sqrt{58}\\\\d = 7.61577\\\\d =7.6

Factors of x3 – 9x2 + 5x – 45 by grouping
kati45 [8]
Important:  Use the symbol "^" to denote exponentiation:

<span>x3 – 9x2 + 5x – 45        NO
</span><span>x^3 – 9x^2 + 5x – 45    YES

Look at the first 2 terms.  They can be rewritten as x^2(x-9).  Then look at the last 2 terms.  They can be rewritten as 5(x-9).  So, x-9 is the common factor here.   Thus, the original expression becomes:

(x^2-5)(x-9).

Note that x^2-5 can be factored, so that the final 3 factors are:

(x-sqrt(5)), (x+sqrt(5)), (x-9).</span>
