<span>A
computer is normally $899 but is discounted to $799.
Question: What percent of the original price does Shawn pay?
=> 799 dollars is the discounted price
=> 899 dollars is the original price
=> 899 – 799 = 100 dollars – the discount price that was deducted to the
original price.
Solution
=> 100 / 899 = 0.11
=> 0.11 * 100% = 11%
Thus, the computer has a discount of 11%.</span>
Answer:
x = +22 or -22
Step-by-step explanation:
So the opposite of x^2 is square root, so we want to take the square root of both sides (what you do to one side, you must do to the other).
-- > x = plus or minus (the + and - are on top of each other) 22
Step-by-step explanation:
there are 12 months in a year, and therefore 2×12 = 24 "half-months" and therefore semimonthly payments.
that means each paycheck is
72,000 / 24 = $3,000
there are 52 weeks per year.
that means they're are 52/2 = 26 biweekly periods and therefore payments.
each paycheck is therefore
72,000 / 26 = $2,769.23
so, Alice receives 2 more paychecks (26 to 24) in a year.
the difference between the 2 types of payment is
3000 - 2769.23 = $230.77
