Answer:

$500

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original price be X

18% discount means 100-18 = 82% to be paid

20% discount means 100-20 = 80% to be paid

(0.8)(0.82)X = 328

0.656X = 328

X = 328/0.656

X = 500

Answer:

500

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original price

Take the first discount

x - 18 percent

x - .18x = new price

x( 1-.18)

x ( .82) = new price

Now we take a 20 percent discount

This is on the discounted price, use .82x

.82x - 20 percent= 2nd discounted price

.82x - .20(.82x)

.82x -.164x

.656x= 2nd discounted price

.656x = 328

Divide each side by.656

.656x/.656 = 328/.656

x =500

The original price was 500

The perimeter of a rectangle is 30 cm and its length is x cm. Find its area in terms of x. step by step explanation.​
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

The area of the rectangle in terms of 'x' = 13x

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Perimeter = 30 cm
  • Length = x cm

Using the perimeter formula to find the width w.

P=2(l+w)

P = 2l + 2w

2w = P-2l

Dividing both sides by 2

w\:=\:\frac{P}{2}-2

as P = 30 cm

w\:=\:\frac{30}{2}-2

w\:=\:15-2

w = 13 cm

Using the formula of the rectangle area

A = wl

substitute w = 13 and l = x in the formula

A=13\times \:x

A = 13x

Therefore, the area of the rectangle in terms of 'x' = 13x

What is considered the most famous impossible problem from Greek antiquity?
zaharov [31]
The most famous impossible problem from Greek Antiquity is doubling the cube. The problem is to construct a cube whose volume is double that of a given one. It is often denoted to as the Delian problem due to a myth that the Delians had look up Plato on the subject. In another form, the story proclaims that the Athenians in 430 B.C. consulted the oracle at Delos in the hope to break the plague devastating their country. They were advised by Apollo to double his altar that had the form of a cube. As an effect of several failed attempts to satisfy the god, the plague only got worse and at the end they turned to Plato for advice. (According to Rouse Ball and Coxeter, p 340, an Arab variant asserts that the plague had wrecked between the children of Israel but the name of Apollo had been discreetly gone astray.) According to a message from the mathematician Eratosthenes to King Ptolemy of Egypt, Euripides mentioned the Delian problem in one of his (now lost) tragedies. The other three antiquity are: angle trisection, squaring a circle, and constructing a regular heptagon.

Help Me Please.................
Rama09 [41]
Your answer would be x = -15.8994.

To get this, you first add 7 to each side making the equation -4.818 = x/3.3

Then, you would need to multiply each side by 3.3 to get x by itself.

Your answer would be -15.8994.
