Sqrt242 can't be simplified anymore. It doesn't contain any perfect squares factors. For instance,
This can be simplified because
And 25 is a perfect square, and square root of 25 is 5. The simplified version for this would be 5 sqrt (6). For your question, sqrt 242 can't be simplified anymore, its most simplified version is its current state.
Y = T+3 (i)
T = H+2 (ii)
Y = 2*H (iiii)
T = H+2 therefore H = T-2
Substitute H=T-2 into (iii)
Y=2*H
Y=2*(T-2)
Y=2T-4
Now substitute that Y into (i)
(i) says Y = T+3
2T-4=T+3
2T-T-4=3
T-4=3
T=3+4
T=7
Then from (i) Y=T+3 = 7+3 =10
Y=10
And from (iii) Y=2*H
If Y = 10, then H = 5
9 dollars is 4 dollars.
Let's find the percent form of the discount
=> 4 dollars / 9 dollars = 0.44
Now, let's convert it to percentage
=> 0.44 * 100% = 44%
Thus the discount is 44%
