2000/x = 60/100
Comparing fractions, if 2000 is 40% off, then 2000 is the remaining 60% of the price. Cross multiply, 2000 times 100 divided by 60 is 3333 + (1/3).
3333.33 is the original price, using only the first two decimals since it is dollar value.
To check, multiply this value to be 60% of the current value. If 3333.33 * 0.6 is nearly 2000 then you know that you have the right answer.
Another way to check is to take the current value of 3333.33 and do this
3333.33-(3333.33*0.4)
Because we are subtracting 40% of the value by first calculating the 40%, then subtracting it.

Mazyrski [523]

replace the numbers given for x & y so

the equation becomes 3*(-3) + 2*(-4) =

3*-3 = -9

2*-4 = -8

-9 + -8 = -17

Solve the inequality 4t^2 ≤ 9t-2 please show steps and interval notation. thank you!​
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

[0.25, 2]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have

4t² ≤ 9t-2

subtract 9t-2 from both sides to make this a quadratic

4t²-9t+2 ≤ 0

To solve this, we can solve for 4t²-9t+2=0 and do some guess and check to find which values result in the function being less than 0.

4t²-9t+2=0

We can see that -8 and -1 add up to -9, the coefficient of t, and 4 (the coefficient of t²) and 2 multiply to 8, which is also equal to -8 * -1. Therefore, we can write this as

4t²-8t-t+2=0

4t(t-2)-1(t-2)=0

(4t-1)(t-2)=0

Our zeros are thus t=2 and t = 1/4. Using these zeros, we can set up three zones: t < 1/4, 1/4<t<2, and t>2. We can take one random value from each of these zones and see if it fits the criteria of

4t²-9t+2 ≤ 0

For t<1/4, we can plug in 0. 4(0)²-9(0) + 2 = 2 >0 , so this is not correct

For 1/4<t<2, we can plug 1 in. 4(1)²-9(1) +2 = -3 <0, so this is correct

For t > 2, we can plug 5 in. 4(5)²-9(5) + 2 = 57 > 0, so this is not correct.

Therefore, for 4t^2 ≤ 9t-2 , which can also be written as 4t²-9t+2 ≤ 0, when t is between 1/4 and 2, the inequality is correct. Furthermore, as the sides are equal when t= 1/4 and t=2, this can be written as [0.25, 2]
