Answer:

<u>2 months</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider, we told that the store marked up the price by 50% above the wholesale cost to use as their selling price, meaning, CB clothing's initial selling price is $30.

Thus, if after every month that the sweater didn't sell, the store reduced the selling price by 20% of the initial selling price of $30, which means there will be a $6 deduction from the initial price (20% * $30).

So, for

  • the first month; $30-$6 = $24
  • the second month; we subtract another 20% from $24 which is $24-$4.8 = $19.2 (a price that has now dipped below the wholesale cost).

point a has the coordinates(2,5) point B has the coordinates (6,17) how long is segment ab in simplified radical form
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

4\sqrt{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that point A has the coordinates(2,5) point B has the coordinates (6,17).

To find the length of segment AB we will use distance formula.

\text{Distance}=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

Upon substituting coordinates of point A and point B in distance formula we will get,

\text{Distance between point A and point B}=\sqrt{(6-2)^2+(17-5)^2}

\text{Distance between point A and point B}=\sqrt{(4)^2+(12)^2}

\text{Distance between point A and point B}=\sqrt{16+144}

\text{Distance between point A and point B}=\sqrt{160}

\text{Distance between point A and point B}=4\sqrt{10}

Therefore, the length of segment AB is 4\sqrt{10}.

A museum worker randomly displays 5 historical writings in a row. What is the probability that the worker lines them up from the
Mars2501 [29]

The number of ways to arrange the 5 writings in a row is 5! = 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 120 ways.

There is only 1 way to arrange the writings from oldest to newest.

Therefore, the probability is 1/120.
