Answer:

n = 199

Step-by-step explanation:

Actually, your task here is "Solve for n: "

Starting with n+ -741 = -542, add 741 to both sides, obtaining n = 199

N=199 because in order to get a a smaller negative you would have to add a positive into a negative

What are the solutions to. x^2 - x - 20 = 0

nignag [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

x² - x - 20 = 0

x² - (5-4) x - 20 = 0 

x² - 5x + 4x -20 = 0

x ( x - 5) + 4 ( x - 5) = 0

(x - 5) (x+ 4) = 0

Either. 

x - 5 = 0

x = 5

Or, 

x + 4 = 0 

x = -4

A rectangular magazine cover is photocopied by using a scale factor of One-third. The length of the photocopy of the magazine co

seraphim [82]

Answer: "reduced by a factor of One-third."

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that the original magazine has a length L and a width W.

If it is photocopied using a scale factor of K, then the measures of the photocopy will be:

length = K*L

Width = K*W

In this case, the scale factor is K = 1/3, then the measures of the photocopy will be:

length = (1/3)*L = L/3

Width = (1/3)*W = W/3

For usual notation:

When k > 1, we have an enlargement by a factor k

when 0 < k < 1, we have a reduction by a factor k

in this case, k = 1/3, then:

We have a reduction by a factor of 1/3

The correct option is:

"reduced by a factor of One-third."

A cell phone that regular costs $780 is on sale for 15% off. What is the total cost of the phone if you have to pay 5.5% sales t

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

$700

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

Given data

Regular cost of cell phone= $780

discount = 15%

tax = 5.5%

Step two

Let us compute the discounted amount

= 15/100*780

=0.15*780

=$117

hence the selling price is

=780-117

=$663

Also, the tax-deductible is

=5.5/100*663

=0.055*663

=$36.465

The total cost of the phone will be

=663+36.465

=699.465

=$700 to the nearest cent
