Profit = 8%

If the briefcase was marked down 20% from 1500 you multiply 1500 x .2 = 300 in order to calculate the discount.

Calculate the discounted price:

1500 - 300 = 1200

Calculate 10% discount of 1200:

1200 x .1 = 120

Calculate the sales price:

1200 - 120 = 1080

The last step is to calculate the profit/loss is the cost is 1000.

The briefcase sold for 1080 and the company paid 1000 for it, so there was a profit of 80.

The percentage is calculate by dividing 80/1000 = 8% profit

Find the x and the area of the shape perimeter is 64.5​
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

x=8

A = 192

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of the outer lengths

17.9 + 22.6 + 3x = 64.5

Combine like terms

40.5 +3x = 64.5

Subtract 40.5 from each side

40.5 +3x -40.5 = 64.5 - 40.5

3x =24

Divide each side by 3

3x/3 = 24/3

x = 8

The area of a triangle is given by

A = 1/2 bh

The base is 3x = 3(8) =24

and the height is 2x = 2(8) =16

A = 1/2 (24) * 16

A =192

PLEASE HELP FAST!!! Find the surface area of the composite figure. Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary.
aksik [14]

Using the surface area formula for rectangular and triangular prism, the surface area of the composite figure is: 444 m².

<h3>What is the Surface Area of the Composite Figure?</h3>

Total surface area = surface area of the top triangular prism + surface area of the bottom rectangular prism - area of the surface both share together.

Surface area of the top triangular prism = (S1 + S2+ S3)L + bh = (10 + 10 + 16)5 + (16)(6) = 276 m².

Surface area of the bottom rectangular prism = 2(wl + hl + hw) = 2·(5·16+4·16+4·5) = 328 m²

Area of the surface both share together = 2(16)(5) = 160 m²

Total surface area = 276 + 328 - 160 = 444 m².

Rewrite the expressions below by completing the square<br> 2 + 4+ 1
Lady bird [3.3K]
STEP BY STEP EXPLANATION
(Mark brainliest pls)

Square root is 2 square + 4 square + 1 because 1 does not enable a square perhaps for negatives to be imputed, and we know 2 square will be 1 hence,

1 x 1 = 1 squared
2 x 2 = 4 squared
Perhaps for 1, you will have to use a formula equation and add tang maybe. Etc I don’t know if tang but u will also have to convert 1 to a decimal to find the square root of 1, 1 is an odd number so it will end up with remainder decimals or just do 1x1, etc.


Hence u

(2 square + 4 square) + 1square?

It depends on addition or order of operations subtraction addition or you will might use multiply
if the subject is about multiply or Division so try and do it because i don’t know if I’m right

..

REMEMBER

PEMDAS

Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally

Parentheses
Equations
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction

ORDER OF OPERATIONS.


try and solve it hope this helps!
