Kaleighs clothes : 

£50=100%
so to find one percent you divide by 100
£0.5=1%
if you then do how much of (£5) by one percent which is (£0.5)
then you get 
5 divided by 0.5 to get 10
which means kaleighs clothes are 10% off 

mimick this idea for Rachels clothes and the greater the percentage, shows whos clothes had the biggest percentage discount

(5/50) x 100 = 10%
(3/20) x 100 = 15%
So Rachel has the biggest discount

PLEASE HELP 8th GRADE MATH QUESTION OVER HERE!!!
patriot [66]

The side AB measures option 2. \sqrt{20}} units long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

The coordinates of the given triangle ABC are A (4, 5), B (2, 1), and C (4, 1).

The sides of the triangle are AB, BC, and CA. We need to determine the length of AB.

To calculate the distance between two points, we use the formula d=\sqrt{\left(x_{2}-x_{1}\right)^{2}+\left(y_{2}-y_{1}\right)^{2}}.

where (x_{1},y_{1}) are the coordinates of the first point and (x_{2},y_{2}) are the coordinates of the second point.

Step 2:

For A (4, 5) and B (2, 1), (x_{1},y_{1}) = (4, 5) and (x_{2},y_{2}) = (2, 1). Substituting these values in the distance formula, we get

d=\sqrt{\left(2-4\right)^{2}+\left(1-5}\right)^{2}} = \sqrt{\left(2\right)^{2}+\left(4}\right)^{2}}=\sqrt{20}}.

So the side AB measures \sqrt{20}} units long which is the second option.

The company matches up to 8%.

Multiply her salary by 8%:

66410 x 0.08 = $5,312.80


Her company will match 50% ( which is half the amount)

Divide the 8% total by 2:

5312.80 / 2 = 2656.40


The answer is B.
