Six books at 8 dollars each is equivalent to $48.00

You are only paying 80% of that cost (100%-20%)

Therefore you are multiplying 48 by .8 

Your answer should be equal to $38.40

Answer:  Alex paid $38.4 for the books.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that Alex bought six books priced at $8 each and he got a discount of 20% off the total cost.

We are to find the amount paid by Alex for the books.

We have

Price of 1 book = $8.

So, price of 6 books = $ (8 × 6) = $ 48.

After a discount of 20%, the cost of 6 books will be

C_d\\\\=48-20\%\times48\\\\\\=48-\dfrac{20}{100}\times48\\\\=48-\dfrac{48}{5}\\\\=48-9.6\\\\=38.4.

Thus, Alex paid $38.4 for the books.

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

12.5 sq. units

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the blue triangle into two smaller triangles.

The length of their common base = 5 units

The height of the <u>yellow</u> triangle = 2 units

The height of the <u>red</u> triangle = 3 units

The area of the yellow triangle

= (5×2)÷2

= 5 sq. units

The area of the red triangle

= (5×3)÷2

= 7.5 sq. units

The total area

= 5+7.5

= 12.5 sq. units

Step-by-step explanation:

As you can see in the graph as x grows larger in the negative direction, the y increases in the negative direction too.
