When you see a "%" you need to ask " a percent of what"?
Here, it's a percent of the original prize, so the discount is 20% of the original prize, that is 20% of 35.
20% is also 20/100 or 1/5, so we can calculate this like this:

so the discount is 7 dollars.
Answer:
576 cubic feet of dirt
Step-by-step explanation:
l x w x h
8 x 12 x 6 = 576

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
Since <XYZ and <YZX are said to be congruent, therefore, the side opposite to each of the angle are also equal. Therefore, ∆XYZ is an isosceles ∆.
Find the value of n by creating an equation to solve for n:
XY = (9n + 12) ft
XZ = (15n - 6) ft
XY = XZ (2 equal lengths of isosceles ∆)
9n + 12 = 15n - 6 (substitution)
Combine like terms
9n - 15n = - 12 - 6
-6n = -18
Divide both sides by -6
-6n/-6 = -18/-6
n = 3
Find the length of leg XY by substituting n = 3 into XY = (9n + 12) ft.
XY = (9(3) + 12) ft
XY = (27 + 12) ft
XY = 39 ft
Find the length of leg XZ by substituting n = 3 into XZ = (15n - 6) ft.
XZ = (15(3) - 6) ft
XZ = (45 - 6) ft
XZ = 39 ft
Answer:
x = 17
Step-by-step explanation:
For the parallelogram to be a rhombus then then the diagonal must bisect the given angle, thus
3x - 11 = x + 23 ( subtract x from both sides )
2x - 11 = 23 ( add 1 to both sides )
2x = 34 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 17
