Answer:

  • See below and the attachment.

Explanation:

From 1 to 10, find the sale price to the nearest cent:

1. $239 television; 10% discount

   Sale\text{ }price=Orignal\text{ }price-discount\\ \\ Sale\text{ }price=\$239-10\%\times \$239=\\\\  Sale\text{ }price=\$239-0.10\times \$239=\\\\  Sale\text{ }price=\$239-\$23.9=\$215.10

2. $72 game; 20% discount

You can also multiply by the factor (1 - % discount);

For instance for 20% discount, the factor is 1 - 20% = 1 -0.20 = 0.80. Which means that you can multiply the original price by the factor 0.80 to get the sale price:

              Sale\text{ }price=Orignal\text{ }price\times factor\\ \\ Sale\text{ }price=\$72\times(1-0.20)=\\\\  Sale\text{ }price=\$72\times0.80=\\\\  Sale\text{ }price=\$57.60

3. $18.95 football; 15% discount

             Sale\text{ }price=Orignal\text{ }price\times factor\\ \\ Sale\text{ }price=\$18.95\times(1-0.15)=\\\\  Sale\text{ }price=\$18.95\times0.85=\\\\  Sale\text{ }price=\$16.11

4. $10.99 CD; 25% discount

            Sale\text{ }price=Orignal\text{ }price\times factor\\ \\ Sale\text{ }price=\$10.99\times(1-0.25)=\\\\  Sale\text{ }price=\$10.99\times0.75=\\\\  Sale\text{ }price=\$8.24

5. $149 MP3 player; 40% discount

            Sale\text{ }price=Orignal\text{ }price\times factor\\ \\ Sale\text{ }price=\$149\times(1-0.40)=\\\\  Sale\text{ }price=\$149\times0.60=\\\\  Sale\text{ }price=\$89.40

6. $213 ski jacket; 30% discount

            Sale\text{ }price=Orignal\text{ }price\times factor\\ \\ Sale\text{ }price=\$213\times(1-0.30)=\\\\  Sale\text{ }price=\$213\times0.70=\\\\  Sale\text{ }price=\$149.10

7. $595 refrigerator; 20% discount

            Sale\text{ }price=Orignal\text{ }price\times factor\\ \\ Sale\text{ }price=\$595\times(1-0.20)=\\\\  Sale\text{ }price=\$595\times0.80=\\\\  Sale\text{ }price=\$476.00

8. $64 video game; 25% discount

          Sale\text{ }price=Orignal\text{ }price\times factor\\ \\ Sale\text{ }price=\$64\times(1-0.25)=\\\\  Sale\text{ }price=\$64\times0.75=\\\\  Sale\text{ }price=\$48.00

9. $119 croquet set; 50% discount

You should not have problems with this: 50% discount means that you will pay half the price.

Hence, the sale price is:

           Sale\text{ }price=Orignal\text{ }price/2 \\\\  Sale\text{ }price=\$59.50

10. $14.99 clock; 10% discount

            Sale\text{ }price=Orignal\text{ }price\times factor\\ \\ Sale\text{ }price=\$14.99\times(1-0.10)=\\\\  Sale\text{ }price=\$14.99\times0.90=\\\\  Sale\text{ }price=\$13.49

11. A radio is on sale for $50. If this price represents a 10% discount from the original price, what is the original price to the nearest nickel? Hint: need to use a proportion to find the whole.

First note that if the discount is 10%, the sale price is 100% - 10% = 90% of the original price.

Let's set the proportion that represents the proportionality between the two ratios, starting with the fact that $ is the 90% and original price is the 100% (the whole part):

  • First ratio: $50/90

  • Second ratio: x /100

  • Proportion: first ratio = second ratio

             \$50/90=x/100

  • Solve for x:

              x=100\times\$50/90=\$55.55

Hence, the original price is $55.55

12. A box of laundry detergent is on sale for $6.50. If this price represents a 40% discount from the original price, what is the original price to the nearest cent?

Use the same hint used in the question above: set a proportion.

Remember a 40% discount means that the sale price is 60% of the original price:

              \$6.50/60=x/100\\ \\ x=100\times\$6.50/60=\$10.83

13. Determine the price of a $35 basketball that is on sale for 50% off the regular price.

Again, 50% discount means that the sale price will be half of the original price, or the original price will be double of the sale price.

Here, the original price is $35, hence the sale price is $35/2 = $17.50

14. Dominic bought a new alarm clock that was on sale for $18.75. If this price represents a 30% discount from the original price, what is the original price to the nearest cent?

Since the price is after a 30% discount, the sale price is a 70% of the original price, and you set the proportion:

          \$18.75/70=x/100

Solve for x:

           x=100\times\$18.75/70=\$26.79

15. Michael bought a new fishing rod. The regular price of the fishing rod was $125.99. He bought it on sale with a 15% discount. Sales tax of 3% is applied to the discounted total. What was the sale price with tax of Michael’s fishing rod to the nearest cent?

  • First find the the sale price after the 15% discount:

           \$125.99\times(1-0.15)=\$125.99\times0.85=\$107.09

  • Now add the 3% tax:

          \$107.09\times1.03=\$110.30

Hence, the sale price with tax is $110.30

The last answer (# 16) is in the attached file, since this already exceeds the number of characters allowed.

Help me out plzz will give u brainliest
djyliett [7]

Answer: Option 3 = 4

Step-by-step explanation: f(x) = 6 - 2x

f(0) = 6 - 2(0) Range = 6

f(2) = 6 - 2(2) Range = 2

f(4) = 6 - 2(4) Range = -2

f(6) = 6 - 2(6) Range = -6

f(8) = 6 - 2(8) Range = -10

The only one that doesn't belong is 4 option 3.

You're welcome!!

F(x)=5500(1.65) <br> at what percent are the bacteria growing each hour
kodGreya [7K]
So exponenetial growth or decay

it goes like this
f(t)=P(1+r)^t
r=rate of decay or grouth
if r>0 then it is grouth by r
if r<0 then it is decay
i
P=initial amount
so
given
f(x)=5500(1.65)^t
f(x)=5500(1+0.65)^t
0.65>0 so it is growing by 65%

This is a full assignment I’m struggling on if someone can answer them all and get most correct I will give you Brainliest for y
Effectus [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 1) Polynomial is closed under addition. In polynomial addition, only the coefficient change and variables and it powers does not change.

Example: Add 3x² - 2x + 7  and -2x² - 5x + 3

3x² - 2x + 7 - 2x² - 5x + 3 = 3x² -2x² - 2x - 5x + 7 + 3

= x² - 7x + 10

2)Polynomial    is closed under addition. In polynomial subtraction, only the coefficient change and variables and it powers does not change.

Example: Subtract 3x - 2 from 4x + 2

4x + 2 - (3x - 2) = 4x + 2 - 3x + 2  = 7x + 4

3) Polynomial is closed under multiplication. In this, exponents of the variables are added according to the exponent rule. As the exponent of polynomials are whole numbers and whole numbers are closed under addition, the result will be a whole number.

-2x³ * 3x² = -3*x^{3+2}=-3x^{5}

4) Polynomial is not closed under multiplication. In division, we may get a negative exponent. So, it is not closed under division.

\dfrac{x^{4}}{x^{9}}=x^{4-9}=x^{-5}\\\\x^{-5} \ is \ not \ a \ polynomial.

                                 Addition        subtraction  multiplication   Division

Natural numbers          yes             not closed    Yes                   Not closed

Integers                        Yes                 Yes              Yes                   not closed

Rational numbers         Yes                 Yes              Yes                     not closed

Irrational numbers       not closed   not closed   not closed   not closed
