Ethan will pay $31.99 with the discount.

How? This is the answer because:

If 39.99 is 100%, and you are trying to find 20%...
1. you need to set it up as a ratio (of course, you do not need to do this, but it is easier for me to do it this way)
2. the ratio will look like this : 39.99/100% x/20%
3. all we need to do from here is to cross multiply!
4 39.99 x
---------- = ----------
100 20

-price is on the top and percent on the bottom
-you would now do 39.99 times 20
-then divide by 100
5. once you have 20% of 39.99, you need to subtract that answer from the total
6. 39.99 - 7.998 = 31.992 (you need to round to the nearest hundredth)



Hope this helps!

Answer: $31.99


Step-by-step explanation:

So, it is originally $39.99, so first we convert 20% to a decimal, which is 0.2.

Then we do 39.99 * 0.2 to find how much money was taken off.

39.99 * 0.2 = 7.998, or $8

Now, we do the original dollar amount, $39.99, minus the discount, $8, which equals $31.99.

Zolol [24]

Answer:

The total cost of resurface the path is \$600

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the area of the path

The area of the path is equal to the area of the path plus the swimming pool minus the area of the swimming pool

A=(14+3+3)(30+3+3)-(14)(30)

A=(20)(36)-(14)(30)

A=300\ ft^{2}

step 2

Find the cost of resurface the path

Multiply the area of the path by $2 per square foot

300*2=\$600
