An LCD TV is on sale for 24% off. If the original price was $800, find the sales price.

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

So

$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

Solve the system by elimination.(show your work)

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

x = 1 , y = 1 , z = 0

Step-by-step explanation by elimination:

Solve the following system:

{-2 x + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)

-2 x - y + z = -3 | (equation 2)

2 x + 3 y + 3 z = 5 | (equation 3)

Subtract equation 1 from equation 2:

{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)

0 x - 3 y - 2 z = -3 | (equation 2)

2 x + 3 y + 3 z = 5 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 2 by -1:

{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)

0 x+3 y + 2 z = 3 | (equation 2)

2 x + 3 y + 3 z = 5 | (equation 3)

Add equation 1 to equation 3:

{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)

0 x+3 y + 2 z = 3 | (equation 2)

0 x+5 y + 6 z = 5 | (equation 3)

Swap equation 2 with equation 3:

{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)

0 x+5 y + 6 z = 5 | (equation 2)

0 x+3 y + 2 z = 3 | (equation 3)

Subtract 3/5 × (equation 2) from equation 3:

{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)

0 x+5 y + 6 z = 5 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y - (8 z)/5 = 0 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 3 by 5/8:

{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)

0 x+5 y + 6 z = 5 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y - z = 0 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 3 by -1:

{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)

0 x+5 y + 6 z = 5 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = 0 | (equation 3)

Subtract 6 × (equation 3) from equation 2:

{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)

0 x+5 y+0 z = 5 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = 0 | (equation 3)

Divide equation 2 by 5:

{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)

0 x+y+0 z = 1 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = 0 | (equation 3)

Subtract 2 × (equation 2) from equation 1:

{-(2 x) + 0 y+3 z = -2 | (equation 1)

0 x+y+0 z = 1 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = 0 | (equation 3)

Subtract 3 × (equation 3) from equation 1:

{-(2 x)+0 y+0 z = -2 | (equation 1)

0 x+y+0 z = 1 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = 0 | (equation 3)

Divide equation 1 by -2:

{x+0 y+0 z = 1 | (equation 1)

0 x+y+0 z = 1 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = 0 | (equation 3)

Collect results:

Answer: {x = 1 , y = 1 , z = 0

How do I solve these equations

Sever21 [200]

You need to know the properties of each function.
Tan is opposite (y) over adjacent (x). Sin>0 means that sin is positive, therefore, it is located on either quadrant 1 or 2. Tan=4/3 so it is located in quadrant 1.
The side of the triangle must be Adjacent=3 opposite=4 and hypotenuse=5
Now, you are asked to find the half angle of Cos which is
$\sqrt{\frac{1+cos}{2} }$
By following the formula, cos=3/5 then:
$\sqrt{ \frac{1- \frac{3}{5} }{2} }$ Multiply everything (inside the square $\sqrt{ \frac{5+3}{10} }$ root) by 5
$\frac{2 \sqrt{2} }{ \sqrt{10} }$
$\frac{2 \sqrt{20} }{10}$ Then just simplify
$\frac{ \sqrt{20} }{5}$ The answer is Square root of 20 over 5
