180 divided by 3, then multiplied by 4 ($240)
Valentin [98]3 years ago
3 0
So
100%=original
25% discount
100-25=75
it is 180 sale
75%=180
find 100%

a hack is to recognize that 75/3 times 4=100 so
75%=180
divide 3
25%=60
times 4
100%=240


the real way is proportions
75:180 =100:x
75/180=100/x
multiply both sides by 180x
75x=18000
divide 75
x=240



origitnal price=$240

NNADVOKAT [17]
An outlier is a value that is much higher or lower than the rest of the data.
The answer here is .7 because all other values range from 3.1-5.8.

What was the error in this equation?
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

The error is the solution.

The solution is all real numbers, or infinite amount of solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

-4(2n - 3) = 12 - 8n

Step 2: Solve for <em>n</em>

  1. <u>Distribute -4:</u> -8n + 12 = 12 - 8n
  2. <u>Subtract 12 on both sides:</u> -8n = -8n
  3. <u>Add 8n to both sides:</u> 0 = 0

Here we see that <em>n</em> can equal any number. If you plug in any number <em>n</em>, it will render the equation true. Therefore, our solution is n = infinite amount of solutions.

n = 0 is only slightly correct. 0 does work as the solution, but there are solutions as well.

Let x and y be any numbers at all with x ≤ y. Show that the number of integers between x and y is [y] - [x] +1.That is show that
ddd [48]

Answer:

the explanation is given below.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Here what is applied is assumption of range of values of number from say 1 - 100
  • In total, i stopped at 100 on the dot.

from this, the lowest number is 1 and the highest number is 100

  • hence the range of the numbers = Difference between Highest and Lowest
  • range = 100 - 1 = 99, the 99 gotten as the range is indicative that a number has been missing.

  • In order to make up the 100, an integer is added to the difference = 99, i.e 99 is added to 1 to make up the 100.

  • Furthermore, if 0 is exclusively out when numbers are counted up 100 with 0 inclusive, in such case, the first and last number are excluded from the counting. as such the integers will be {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20.........., 99} since both 0 and 100 are not included.

  • Here, if we try to get the range = highest - lowest = 99 - 1 = 98, it implies that to make up the 99, an integer is added to the result of the difference = 98+1 = 99

  • As such, the number of integers between two numbers is the difference between the highest and the lowest number plus 1 i.e highest - lowest + 1 = y - x +1 = (the floor of y) - ( the ceiling of x) + 1
