Answer:

The sales price is $608.

Step-by-step explanation:

Being on sale for 24% off means that the sales price is 100-24 = 76% of the original price.

This can be solved by a rule of three.

The original price is 800

$800 - 1

$x - 0.76

$x = 0.76*800 = 608$

The sales price is $608.

24% = 0.24

multiply that by the price:

800 * 0.24 = 192 ( discount)

800-192 = $608 sale price

What is the solution to the equation −p − 13 = −4 /3 p + 2/3 ( 5p − 6 ) ?

jekas [21]

Answer:

The answer is p= 2 and 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

This answer can be found using the order of operations to solve for p.

Start by distributing 2/3 by (5p-6)

add -4/3p to 10/3p equaling 6/3p or 2p

subtract 13 from both sides

-p= 2p - 7

p=2 and 1/3

I don't understand what to do. can u please answer these questions

I believe you will need to find what -0.125 of an inch is, subtract that from 16, then divide that into 11.

Find all the zeros of the equation

lapo4ka [179]

Divide both sides by -3, and replace $x^2$ with $y$ . Then

$-3x^4+27x^2+1200=0\iff y^2-9y-400=0$

Factorize the quadratic in $y$ to get

$y^2-9y-400=(y+16)(y-25)=0\implies y=-16,y=25$

which in turn means

$x^2=-16,x^2=25$

But $x^2\ge0$ for all real $x$ , so we can ignore the first solution. This leaves us with

$x^2=25\implies x=\pm\sqrt{25}=\pm5$

If we allow for any complex solution, then we can continue with the solution we ignored:

$x^2=-16\implies x=\pm\sqrt{-16}=\pm i\sqrt{16}=\pm4i$
