El precio de un auto era de &725000. Me han rebajado un 15% por pagarlo al contado. ¿Cuánto debemos abonar con la rebaja?

mariarad [96]

Respuesta:

616,250

Explicación paso a paso:

Dado que:

Precio inicial = 725.000

Porcentaje de descuento por pagar en efectivo = 15% = 0,15

El precio con descuento será:

Importe inicial - descuento

Descuento = 0,15 * 725000 = 108,750

Precio con descuento = (725000 - 108750) = 616,250

Question below. Please answer it, its math.

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

- 0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing we want to do here is simplify the expression -

$\frac{3}{5}$ ( 2x + 5 ) - 2x, Distribute the " $\frac{3}{5}$ " to elements within the parenthesis

= $\frac{3}{5}$ $*$ 2x + $\frac{3}{5}$ $*$ 5 - 2x, Focus on simplifying the expression " $\frac{3}{5}$ $*$ 2x + $\frac{3}{5}$ $*$ 5 "

= $2\cdot \frac{3}{5}x+5\cdot \frac{3}{5}$ - 2x

= $\frac{6x}{5}+3$ - 2x, Combine fractions

= $-\frac{4x}{5}$ + 3

= $-\frac{4}{5}$ x + 3

So we have our simplified expression " $-\frac{4}{5}$ x + 3, " with $-\frac{4}{5}$ being the coefficient of x. Our requirements are that this fraction should be expressed as a decimal, so we can simply divide the numerator by the denominator to figure that out,

- 4 / 5 = - 0.8,

Solution = - 0.8

Two airplanes are flying to the same airport. Their positions are shown in the graph. Write a system of linear equations that re

wariber [46]

Answer:

Airplane #1 equation: y=5/13x+42/13

Airplane #2 equation: y=1/3x+14

Step-by-step explanation:

So to find the slope of each airplane, you use the formula y2-y1/x2-x1. That means, for airplane#1 the equation will be 9-4/15-2. Simplify this and get 5/13. Then, for airplane#2, the equation will be 12-9/6-15. Simplify this and get 3/-9 and divide each side by 3 to get 1/-3 or -1/3. Next, use point slope formula to find the system of linear equations. Point slope formula is y-y1=m(x-x1). M is the slope. Use any point from the line. In this case, I will use (2,4). Tat means the first airplane's equation would be y-4=5/13(x-2). Then y-4=5/13x-10/13. Then, convert four into a fraction with a denominator of 13. This means, you have to multiply 4 by 13 to get 52/13. Add 52/13 to -10/13 to get 42/13. That means the first equation will be y=5/13x+42/13. The second equation point will be (6,12). This means the equation will be y-12=-1/3(x-6). Simplify this to get y-12=-1/3x+2. Simplify this to get y=1/3x+14. Therefore, Airplane#1 equation will be y=5/13x+42/13 and airplane #2 equation will be y=1/3x+14.
