Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$10a-25+5b\\\\-2(-5a-25+5b)=(-2)(-5a)+(-2)(-25)+(-2)(5b)\\=10a+50-10b\qquad NOT\\\\(2a-5+b)(5)=(2a)(5)+(-5)(5)+(b)(5)=10a-25+5b\qquad YES\\\\10(a-2.5+0.5b)=(10)(a)+(10)(-2.5)+(10)(0.5b)\\=10a-25+5b\qquad YES\\\\(-2a+5-b)(-5)=(-2a)(-5)+(5)(-5)+(-b)(-5)\\=10a-25+5b\qquad YES\\\\-10(-a-2.5-0.5b)=(-10)(-a)+(-10)(-2.5)+(-10)(-0.5b)\\=10a+25+5b\qquad NOT$

At some department store, all suits are reduced 30% from the retail price. If a man purchased a suit that originally rera ec for

Arisa [49]

Answer:

$78.72

Step-by-step explanation:

To find 30% of the original value, we need to turn this percentage into a decimal or a fraction and then multiply it by the original value

30% is equivalent to 0.30, $\frac{30}{100}$ , and $\frac{3}{10}$
So we can use either of these values. I will use 0.30 for simplicity

($262.40)(0.30) = $78.72 is the amount saved

Using addition formula solve tan 15

salantis [7]

Answer:

2 - $\sqrt{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the addition formula for tangent

tan(A - B) = $\frac{tanA-tanB}{1+tanAtanB}$ and the exact values

tan45° = 1 , tan60° = $\sqrt{3}$ , then

tan15° = tan(60 - 45)°

tan(60 - 45)°

= $\frac{tan60-tan45}{1+tan60tan45}$

= $\frac{\sqrt{3}-1 }{1+\sqrt{3} }$

Rationalise the denominator by multiplying numerator/ denominator by the conjugate of the denominator.

The conjugate of 1 + $\sqrt{3}$ is 1 - $\sqrt{3}$

= $\frac{(\sqrt{3}-1)(1-\sqrt{3}) }{(1+\sqrt{3})(1-\sqrt{3}) }$ ← expand numerator/denominator using FOIL

= $\frac{\sqrt{3}-3-1+\sqrt{3} }{1-3}$

= $\frac{-4+2\sqrt{3} }{-2}$

= $\frac{-4}{-2}$ + $\frac{2\sqrt{3} }{-2}$

= 2 - $\sqrt{3}$

Cathrine has £7000 to invest.

Anvisha [2.4K]

Since this is a compound interest problem, you have to take note that the amount Catherine will get per year is not the same. It will increase per year since it is compounded. So first, we get the amount after one year. This will be 7000 x 0.04 which is 280 plus 7280. In the second year, she will get 7571 (7280 x 0.04 + 7280). In the third year, she will get 7874 (7571 x 0.04 + 7571). In the fourth year, she will get 8189 (7874 x 0.04 + 7874). And finally in the fifth year, she will get 8517 (8189 x 0.04 +8189). So after five years, she has 8517
