Answer:
<h2>
a ∈ (-∞, -3></h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>-
21 ≥ 3(a - 7) + 9</h3><h3>
- 21 ≥ 3a - 21 + 9</h3>
+21 +21
<h3>
0 ≥ 3a + 9 </h3><h3>
3a + 9 ≤ 0</h3>
-9 -9
<h3>
3a ≤ - 9</h3>
÷3 ÷3
<h3>
a ≤ -3 </h3><h3>
a ∈ (-∞, -3></h3>
$4 is the original price of the jar consisting of peanut butter so therefor it = 100%. It's for sale at $3.60, so we divide $4 by 100% so we get the percentage for each cent and then we times it by 3.60 to get the percentage for $3.60 which is 90%. Now we subtract 90% from 100% to get the discounted percentage for 40cents :)
