Answer: 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, if you buy 2 sweaters at full price (100%)

$48 x 2 = $96

"Buy one get one 1/2 off sale"´price

48 + (48/2) = 48 +24 = $72

So, the normal price for both sweaters (96) multiplied by a percentage is equal to the "buy one get one 1/2 off sale” price.

96 x =72

x =72/96 = 0.75  

Multiplying by 100 to obtain the percentage form

0.75 =75%

So, the sale price is %75 of the full price.

To obtain the percent discount.

100%-75% = 25%

25%


If you are buying 2 shirts for the same price, you have to calculate the cost of the shirt at half price first (1 piece of the pie) and then add it the original price (2 equal pieces of the pie since you just divided that to the price of the second shirt). That would be considered 3 out of 4 pieces off the pie or 75%. Your savings would be 25%.

to divide multiply by the reciprocal
1/2 x2/1= 1

I'm confused. Help. Find x please.
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

x = 2 and x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+3)^2 = (x - 5)^2 + (x + 2)^2

x^2 + 6x + 9 = x^2 - 10x + 25 + x^2 + 4x + 4

x^2 + 6x + 9 =2x^2 - 6x + 29

x^2 - 12x + 20 = 0

(x - 10)(x - 2) = 0

x - 10 = 0; x = 10

x - 2 = 0; x = 2
