At a local department store, jeans are typically priced at $15. Due to a special, the jeans are reduced to 80% of their original
vodomira [7]

Answer:the price of jeans now is $12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the current price of the jeans. At the local department store, jeans are typically priced at $15. It means that the original price of the jeans is $15 .

Due to a special, the jeans are reduced to 80% of their original price. This means that the original price was reduced by 20%. Therefore, the current price, x would be

x = 15 - (20/100 × 15) = 15 - 3

x = $12

a yard width is 2 less than it's length. If the perimeter of the yard is 20 feet determine the length and the width of the yard
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

The length is 6 feet and the width is 4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the length of the yard

The width can be represented by x - 2, since it is 2 less than the length.

Use the perimeter formula, P = 2l + 2w, where l is the length and w is width

Plug in the expressions and perimeter:

20 = 2x + 2(x - 2)

Solve for x:

20 = 2x + 2x - 4

20 = 4x - 4

24 = 4x

6 = x

So, the length is 6. Plug this into x - 2 to find the width

x - 2

6 - 2

= 4

So, the length is 6 feet and the width is 4 feet

While pushing a shovel into the ground with a force of 555 newtons ant an angle of 44 ∘ 44 ∘ to the ground. Find the magnitudes
Nataly [62]

The Horizontal component is 554.889N and the vertical component is

9.8235 Newton

<h3>Resolution of Forces</h3>

Given Data

  • Force = 555 Newton
  • Angle of Applied force = 44°
  • Fx = Horizontal component of the applied force
  • Fy = the vertical component of the applied force

Resolving the vertical force

Fy = 555 sin44°

Fy = 555 *0.01770

Fy = 9.8235 Newton

Resolving the horizontal force

Fx = 555 cos 44°

Fx = 555 *0.9998

Fx = 554.889 Newton
