Answer:
The final cost of the pants is $ 12.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that at a store that is closing the pants normally cost $ 60.00 but it is discounted 75%, and they are also taking an additional 20% off, to determine what is the final price for the pants, the following calculation must be performed:
100 - 20 = 80
(60 - (60 x 0.75)) x 0.80 = X
(60 - 45) x 0.80 = X
15 x 0.80 = X
12 = X
Thus, the final cost of the pants is $ 12.
Hello :) the answer to your question would be 5. There are 5 bricks in each bag. 35/8
12 - 2x = -2(y - x)
12 - 2x = -2y - (-2x)
12 - 2x = -2y + 2x
12 - 2x - 2x = -2y + 2x - 2x
12 - 4x = -2y
12 - 12 - 4x = -2y - 12
-4x = -2y - 12
-4x/4 = -2y/4 - 12/4
-x = -0.5y - 3
-x/-1 = -0.5y/-1 - 3/-1
x = 0.5y + 3
or
x = 3 + 0.5y

Answer:
8.6
Step-by-step explanation:
The growth factor per year is 1.012, so in 500 years is ...
1.012^500
The number of doublings is the solution to ...
2^n = 1.012^500
Taking logarithms, we have ...
n·log(2) = 500·log(1.012)
n = 500·log(1.012)/log(2) ≈ 8.6046
About 8.6 doublings will take place in 500 years.
