Answer:
8s-8
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the distributive property: #(a-b) = #*a - #*b. In this case 8s - 8.
Hope it helps!
A whole number. The number is 9, because 45/5 = 9.
Answer:
DE = 21
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall: the ratio of the corresponding side lengths of similar triangles are equal
Given that ∆ABC ~ ∆DEF, therefore,
AB/DE = BC/EF = AC/DF
AB = 8.4
DE = x
BC = 10
EF = 25
AC = 16.5
DF = 41.25
Let's find DE using AB/DE = BC/EF. Thus:
8.4/x = 10/25
Cross multiply
x*10 = 25*8.4
10x = 210
Divide both sides by 10
x = 210/10
x = 21
DE = x = 21
Find the price before the 15% profit:
2500 / 1.15 = 2173.91
Now multiply the original cost by 1 + 38%:
2173.91 x 1.38 = 2999.99
Answer: 2.999.99 ( may need to round to 3,000)
