Answer:

$144

Step-by-step explanation:

If the price of an item whose original cost is F dollars is reduced by 50%, the new price of the item must be equivalent to the difference between the original and the amount by which it was reduced. This new price must be equal to

= F - (50% *F)

= 0.5F    (measured in $)

If the new price is further reduced by 50%, the new price will be

= 0.5F - (50% * 0.5F)

= 0.5F - 0.25F

= 0.25F

if the price of the dress after both reductions is ​$36​, then  it means that

0.25F = $36

F = $36/0.25

= $144

The original price was $144

Identify the zeros of f(x) = (x + 9)(x − 4)(6x + 1).
slavikrds [6]
<h2>The required 'option a)  - 9 , \dfrac{-1}{6}, 4' is correct.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

f(x) = (x + 9)(x − 4)(6x + 1)

To find, all zeroes of the given equation = ?

∴ f(x) = (x + 9)(x − 4)(6x + 1)

⇒ (x + 9)(x − 4)(6x + 1) = 0

⇒ x + 9 = 0 or, x − 4 = 0 or, 6x + 1 = 0

⇒ x + 9 = 0 ⇒  x = - 9

⇒ x − 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4

⇒ 6x + 1 = 0

⇒ 6x = - 1

⇒ x = \dfrac{-1}{6}

∴ x = - 9 , \dfrac{-1}{6}, 4

Thus, the required 'option a)  - 9 , \dfrac{-1}{6}, 4' is correct.

iVinArrow [24]
So,

Notice that there is a triangle with two of the angles given.  We know that the sum of any triangle's angles will always be 180°.  Thus, we can subtract the two given angles from 180, and that will give us the measure of angle ABC.

180 - 20 - 25 = 160 - 25 = 135

The measure of angle ABC is 135°.

The correct option is D.
