I can solve with 2 methods:

I. Because the discount is 15 % of 18 $ , the price will be (100-15=85) 85 % of 18 $
18*85/100= 15,3 $ ( the sale price)

II. The discount is 15 % of 18$
15*18/100= 2,7$  ( the discount)
then I decrease it from the regularly price
18$-2,7$=15,3 $ (the sale price)

Personally I believe the first is an easier method.
I hope you understand and you can apply this in every similary problem.

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since JB is the bisector of AD and the length of AD is given as 24 we can conclude that AZ is 12 (half of AD)

In triangle abc, AC=15 BC=11 and m
Oksana_A [137]

Answer: 10

Step-by-step explanation:

In a right angle triangle

Hypothenus ^2= opposite ^2+ adjacent ^2

According to a diagram below

Hypothenus =15

Opposite =?

Adjacent =11

Substitute for the values

15^2=11^2+opp^2

Opp^2=15^2-11^2

0pp^2= 225-121

Opp2=104

Opp= square root of 104

Opp= 10.2

Opp= ~10

How do I find x in this triangle?
Scilla [17]
Since the total degree of a triangle is 180, subtract 44 from 180 = 136. Divide it by two, and you get 68. I believe this is correct but don't take my word for it. Good luck!

Finish this 3,9,4,12,7,21,16
steposvetlana [31]
The pattern is that every 2 numbers are a pair, the first being any selected number, and the second number next to is the number times 3.

3 x 3 = 9
4 x 3 =12
7 x 3 = 21
Therefor we type 16 x 3 = 48

48 is your next number.

Solve the following inequalities and give the solutions in both set and interval notations.
Lubov Fominskaja [6]
4y + 3 > 23 subtract 3 from both sides
4y > 20 divide both sides by 4
y > 5

-2y > -2 divide both sides by -2 (the order changes)
y < 1
