A) 38*(1-20%)*(1-10%)=27.36
b)38*(1-30%)=26.6
c)Because in question one when you take off the 10% it is 10% of the already off price but when you take off 30% it is taking off from the original price

Answer:

A- The final price of the shirt was $27.36.

B- If it were reduced by 30% from the original price, the price of the shirt would be $26.6.

C- There is a difference between both prices because in the first case, the discount is split, making a first discount on a larger basis, and the second on a smaller basis, already made the first discount.

In contrast, at the second price, the entire percentage is made on the major basis. Therefore, the discount is larger.

Step-by-step explanation:

A- The final price of the shirt is determined by the following calculation:

(38 x 0.8) x 0.9 = FINAL PRICE

38 is multiplied by 0.8 because the price was reduced by 20% (0.2 is the 20% of 1, that is, of a unit. Therefore, the remaining price would be that 0.8 or 80%)

Then, using the same logic, we have to multiply that result by 0.9 in order to get the final price.

Therefore:

(38 x 0.8) x 0.9 = 30.4 x 0.9 = 27.36

B- Here, we would have to multiply 38 x 0.7, which gives a result of 26.6

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

  c) parabola and circle: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 times

  d) parabola and hyperbola: 1, 2, 3 times

Step-by-step explanation:

c. A parabola can miss a circle, be tangent to it in 1 or 2 places, intersect it 2 places and be tangent at a 3rd, or intersect in 4 places.

__

d. A parabola must intersect a hyperbola in at least one place, but cannot intersect in more than 3 places. If the parabola is tangent to the hyperbola, the number of intersections will be 2.

If the parabola or the hyperbola are "off-axis", then the number of intersections may be 0 or 4 as well. Those cases seem to be excluded in this problem statement.

Please help me find X

Answer:

  x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of distances from the intersection of secants to the near and far intersections with the circle are the same. For a tangent, the near and far points of intersection with the circle are the same. This relation tells us ...

  (2√3)(2√3) = x(x +4)

  12 = x² +4x

  16 = x² +4x +4 . . . . . add the square of half the x-coefficient to complete the square

  4² = (x +2)² . . . . . . . . write as squares

  4 = x +2 . . . . . . . . . . positive square root

  2 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 2

_____

<em>Alternate solution</em>

If you believe x to be an integer, you can look for factors of 12 that differ by 4.

  12 = 1×12 = 2×6 = 3×4

The factors 2 and 6 differ by 4, so x=2 and x+4=6.
