A telescope costs $126 with a 30% discount. What was the original price?

Answer:

$180

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the cost of the telescope with the 30% discount is $126 then $126 is 70% of the original price. Remember 100-30=70. To find the original price set up a proportion with these values:

\frac{126}{x}=\frac{70}{100}

Solve for the original price by cross multiplying numerator with denominator.

x(70) = 126(100)

70x = 12600

x= $180

Show all your work to find the axis of symmetry of f(x) = −2(x − 4)^2 + 2.
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

-2(x^2+15)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = −2(x − 4)^2 + 2.

Expanding (x-4)^2

(x-4)(x+4)

x(x+4)-4(x+4)

x^2+4x-4x-16

x^2-16

F(x) = -2(x^2-16)+2

-2x^2-32+2

-2x^2-30

-2(x^2+15)

Please help me with this

So since 2/5 of the washing machines have been sold that means 3/5 remain in the store 
 
first find the number of washing machines that were in the store before any were sold 

X is the number of washing machines in the store before selling

18=(3/5)X

18/(3/5)=X
X=18*(5/3)
X=30

so at the beginning there were 30 machines

then multiply the percent sold (2/5) by the number at beginning to find the number sold

(2/5)*30=12

so 12 machines were sold

to find the cost per machine divide the total price by number of machines sold so 

$3840/12= $320 

so the answer is $320 per machine
