Answer:

$278.40

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: "...an additional 10% off any shoe item, once the first discount has been applied." (emphasis added).

Note that the customer is buying 3 pairs of shoes for $120 each: 120 x 3 = $360

The first discount is the 20% discount  (on every single item), the second discount is the 10% discount coupon of of any item (which signifies one item only).

Solve for the first discount:

$360 x 0.20 = $72

$360 - 72 = $288.

Next, divide $288 by 3 (to get the individual prices of the shoes:

$288/3 = $96.

The customer then uses a birthday coupon for one of the shoes, which gives an additional 10% off.

$96 x 0.10 = 9.6

$96 - 9.6 = $86.4

Remember, the other two shoes still cost $96 each. Add the price together:

$96 + $96 + $86.4 = $278.40

$278.40 will be the total.

The sum of a rational number and an even integer is rational. A) Always True B) Sometimes True C) Usually True D) Never True
SOVA2 [1]
I think that the sum will always be a rational number
let's prove that


<span>any rational number can be represented as a/b where a and b are integers and b≠0

</span>and an integer is the counting numbers plus their negatives and 0
so like -4,-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3,4....

<span>so, 2 rational numbers can be represented as

</span>a/b and c/d (where a,b,c,d are all integers and b≠0 and d≠0)

their sum is
a/b+c/d=
ad/bd+bc/bd=
(ad+bc)/bd

1. the numerator and denominator will be integers
2. that the denominator does not equal 0

alright
1.
we started with that they are all integers
ab+bc=?
if we multiply any 2 integers, we get an integer
<span>like 3*4=12 or -3*4=-12 or -3*-4=12, etc.
</span>even 0*4=0, that's an integer
the sum of any 2 integers is an integer
like 4+3=7, 3+(-4)=-1, 3+0=3, etc.
so we have established that the numerator is an integer

now the denominator
that is just a product of 2 integers so it is an integer


<span>2. we originally defined that b≠0 and d≠0 so we're good

</span>therefore, the sum of any 2 rational numbers will always be a rational number <span>is the correct answer.</span>

Answer: Choice A)  Add 3.8 to both sides of the equation

Explanation:

If we knew the value of w, then we would replace it and apply PEMDAS.

However, we don't know the value of w, so we undo each step of PEMDAS going backwards.

We start with the "S" of PEMDAS, and undo the subtraction. To undo subtraction, you apply addition. To undo that "minus 3.8" we add 3.8 to both sides.
