They cost $48 dollars now.

Let's break it down:

60 dollars is 100%
The trousers got marked down 20%
100-20 is 80%
80% of 60 is 48
( 60×0.8×10 =48)


Hope this helps!

dangina [55]

Answer:

a = -1

b = -9

c = 9

d = 3

e = 3

f = 2

g = 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

∵ \frac{3x}{2x-6}+\frac{9}{6-2x} are rational fractions

- To add or subtract the rational fractions they must have same

  denominator

∵ 6 - 2x must be written 2x - 6, take (-1) as a common factor from 6 - 2x

∴ - 1(-6 + 2x) = - 1(2x - 6)

∴ \frac{3x}{2x - 6}+\frac{9}{6-2x}=\frac{3x}{2x-6}+\frac{9}{-1(2x-6)}

∴ a = -1

∵ 9 ÷ -1 = -9

∴ =  \frac{3x}{2x-6}+\frac{-9}{2x-6}

∴ b = -9

∵ The denominators of the two fractions are 2x - 6

∴ We can add them by adding their numerator

∵ 3x + -9 = 3x - 9

∴ = \frac{3x-9}{2x-6}

∴ c = 9

∵ 3x - 9 has a common factor 3

∴ 3x - 9 = 3(x - 3)

∵ 2x - 6 has common factor 2

∴ 2x - 6 = 2(x - 3)

∴ = \frac{3(x-3)}{2(x-3)}

∴ d = 3 , e = 3 , f = 2

- The fraction has same factor (x - 3) up and down then we can cancel

  them together

∴ = \frac{3}{2}

∴ g = 3/2

An infinite geometric series has 1 and 1/5 as its first two terms: 1, 1/5, 1/25, 1/125, . . . What is the sum, S, of the infinit
dezoksy [38]

Answer:  \dfrac{5}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The first term of Geometric series : a=1

The seconds term of Geometric series : ar=\dfrac{1}{5}

The common ratio between the terms is given by :-

r=\dfrac{ar}{a}=\dfrac{\frac{1}{5}}{1}=\dfrac{1}{5}

We know that the sum of infinite geometric series is given by :-

S_{\infty}=\dfrac{a}{1-r}\\\\\Rightarrow\ S_{\infty}=\dfrac{1}{1-\frac{1}{5}}=\dfrac{1}{\frac{4}{5}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ S_{\infty}=\dfrac{5}{4}

Hence, the sum of the given infinite series = \dfrac{5}{4}

Jane had 275 stickers, which she gave to her friends. Each friend got five more stickers than the friend before. If the first fr
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

10 friends

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula of the sum is equal to

sum=\frac{n}{2}[2a1+(n-1)d]

where

a1 is the first term

n is the number of terms (number of friends)

d is the common difference in the arithmetic sequence

In this problem we have

sum=275\ stickers

a1=5\ stickers

d=5 ----> the common difference

substitute in the formula and solve for n

275=\frac{n}{2}[2(5)+(n-1)(5)]

550=n[10+5n-5]\\ \\550=10n+5n^{2} -5n\\ \\5n^{2}+5n-550=0

Solve the quadratic equation by graphing

The solution is n=10

see the attached figure

therefore

She had 10 friends who got stickers

A plumber pays $3.60 for 60 centimeters of pipe.Explain how the plumber can use unit cost of the pipe to find the cost of buying
kvv77 [185]
3.60 / 60cm = .06/cm or 6 cents per centimeter
100cm = 1m
$.06 * 100cm = $6.00 / m
100m = 100 * $6.00
= $600
