Original selling price = d
selling price at a later date = 1.15(0.95d)

0.95d means that the original price was discounted by 5%
1.15 means that the price increased by 15%

So the correct answer choice is: 

<span>C The price decreased by 5% and then increased by 15%

PLEASE HELP!!!!!! TIMED QUESTION!!!! FIRST CORRECT ANSWER WILL GET BRAINLIEST....PLEASE ANSWER NOW!!!!
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Option (3)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the picture attached,

Bar graph sketched shows the grades earned by the students in an exam.

Number of students who achieved the grade A = 17

Number of students who achieved grade B = 14

Number of students with grade C = 5

Number of students with grade D = 9

Total students who took the exam = 17 + 14 + 5 + 9 = 45

Option (1)

"\frac{1}{5} of the students earned a C"

Fraction of students who earned C = \frac{\text{Students who earned C}}{\text{Total students}}

                                                          = \frac{5}{45}

                                                          = \frac{1}{9}

Therefore, this option is incorrect.

Option (2)

"3% more students earned an A then B"

Percentage of students who earned A = \frac{\text{Students got A}}{\text{Total students who took the exam}}\times 100

                                                                = \frac{17}{45}\times 100

                                                                = 37.78%

Percentage of students who earned B = \frac{\text{Students got B}}{\text{Total students who took the exam}}\times 100

                                                                = \frac{14}{45}\times 100

                                                                = 31.11%

Difference in percentage = 37.78 - 31.11

                                          = 6.67%

Therefore, this option is not correct.

Option (3)

"20% of the students earned a D"

Percentage of students who earned D = \frac{\text{Students got D}}{\text{Total students who took the exam}}\times 100

                                                                 = \frac{9}{45}\times 100

                                                                 = 20%

Option (3) is the correct option.

Option (4)

" \frac{1}{4} of the class earned a B"

Fraction of class who earned B = \frac{\text{Students got B}}{\text{Total students who took the exam}}

                                                    = \frac{14}{45}

Therefore, Option (4) is not correct.

Thea has a key on her calculator marked $\textcolor{blue}{\bf\circledast}$. If an integer is displayed, pressing the $\textcolor
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

$9$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Thea enters a positive integer into her calculator, then squares it, then presses the $\textcolor{blue}{\bf\circledast}$ key, then squares the result, then presses the $\textcolor{blue}{\bf\circledast}$ key again such that the calculator displays final number as $243$.

To find: number that Thea originally entered

Solution:

The final number is $243$.

As previously the $\textcolor{blue}{\bf\circledast}$ key was pressed,

the number before $243$ must be $324$.

As previously the number was squared, so the number before $324$ must be $18$.

As previously the $\textcolor{blue}{\bf\circledast}$ key was pressed,

the number before $18$ must be $81$

As previously the number was squared, so the number before $81$ must be $9$.
