Answer : The peter can buy 2 watches.

Step-by-step explanation :

Peter has total money = $100

Original price of a watch = $60

Discount % = 25 %

First we have to determine the price of a watch after discount.

Price of a watch = $\frac{25}{100}\times \$ 60=\$ 15$

Price of a watch after discount = Original price - Price of a watch at the time of discount

Price of a watch after discount =$60 - $15

Price of a watch after discount = $45

Now we have to determine the price of 2 watches.

Price of 2 watches = 2 × $45

Price of 2 watches = $90

From this we conclude that, peter can buy 2 watches because he has $100 money that is more than the price of 2 watches.

Thus, the peter can buy 2 watches.

Do 60 divided by 4 ( 25 percent) which is 15. 60-15 is 45. 45 plus 45 is 90 so yes he has enough money to buy two watches

notsponge [240]

So we need to cover 5.5% into a decimal.

0.055 = 5.5%

The house value is 120,000.
So

(1.055x) * (120,000)=

So

f(x)=1.055x * 120,000

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{x^{2} -x-12}{x+4} * \frac{2x^{2}-32 }{x^{2} -8x+16}$ rewrite as multiplication

$\frac{x^{2} +3x-4x-12}{x+4} * \frac{2(x^{2}-16) }{x^{2} -8x+16}$ look to factor

$\frac{x(x+3)-4(x+3)}{x+4} * \frac{2(x-4)(x+4) }{(x-4)^{2}}$ , difference of 2 squares and perfect square

$\frac{(x+3)(x-4)}{x+4} * \frac{2(x-4)(x+4) }{(x-4)^{2}}$ , finish factoring and simplify
