Answer: No, it would be 2/5.

Step-by-step explanation: 2 1/4 - 6/7 is equal to about 1.4 when rounded to the nearest tenth. 1.4 as a fraction would be 4/10. 4/10 is simplified to 2/5 by dividing each number by 2.

Marina wants to purchase a rosebush ford dollars at a garden store. She has a coupon good for

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

Part A: 0.9d - 4.5

Part B: 0.9d - 5

Part C: Order that will save Marina money is "discount applied first, then coupon"

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

The rosebush costs "d" dollars

Coupon = $5 OFF

Discount = 10%

We want to find cost of rosebush when COUPON APPLIED 1st and DISCOUNT APPLIED 2nd.

Cost = d

Coupon Applied Cost = (d - 5)

Discount Applied Cost = 10% off means 100 - 10 = 90% of the price remains, that is 90/100 = 0.9 times the price, so:

0.9(d - 5) = 0.9d - 4.5

Part B

When we apply 10% discount to the initial price of "d", we get 90% of the price remaining.

So, price would be:

Normal Price = d

Discount Price = 0.9d

Now, coupon applied of $5, we get:

0.9d - 5

Part C

We have two expressions, let the original price, d, be 100, so

Part A price would be 0.9d - 4.5 = 0.9(100) - 4.5 = 85.5

Part B price would be 0.9d - 5 = 0.9(100) - 5 = 85

So, Marina will save up money going on the 2nd option.

Order that will save Marina money is "discount applied first, then coupon"

What is the net-price rate when a designer swimsuit, originally priced at $85 is discounted 25/60?

Gre4nikov [31]

Designer's swimsuit is originally priced at 85 dollars.
NOw, it applied a discount which is 25/60. First, let's find out how much the discount rate.
=> 25 / 60 = 0.42 * 100 = 42% is the discount.
=> 85 dollars * 0.42 = 35.7 is the discount.
=> 85 dollars - 35.7 dollars = 49.3 dollars is now the price.

PLEASE HELP ANYONE

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

For this problem all you have to do is plug in the value that they is in parenthesis for x. If it says g (x) = x and then it asks g(5) = ?, it is saying what happens if i put 5 in for every x. in this case it would be g (5) = 5. I just replaced x with 5.

So g (-2) we sub -2 for x
g (-2) = -2 (-2)^2 + 3 (-2) - 5
= -2 (4) - 6 - 5
= -19

g (0) = -2 (0) + 3 (0) - 5
= 0 + 0 - t
= -5

g (3) = -2 (3)^2 + 3 (3) - 5
= -18 + 9 - 5
= -14
