First, find the decreased price by multiplying 100 by 8% and subtracting:
100 x 0.08 = 8
100-8 = 92 ( reduced price )
now multiply reduced price by 8% and add:
92 x 0.08 = 7.36
92 + 7.36 = $99.36
Answer:
c) 9
Step-by-step explanation:
4x - 2 + 30 = 64
4x + 28 = 64
4x = 64 - 28
4x = 36
x = 36/4
x = 9
Anyone could be chosen but the highest possibility of chosen marble is red due to the percentage of marbles in bag being red.
Answer:
x = 9
y = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Side-Side-Side or SSS means that if all three sides of one triangle are equal to all three corresponding sides of another triangle, then the two triangles are considered to be congruent (equal).
Therefore, GH = PM ⇒ 7x + 8 = 6y - 7
and, GP = HM ⇒ 8x - 10 = 5y - 3
Rewrite the first expression to make x the subject, then substitute this into the second equation, and solve for y:
GH = PM
⇒ 7x + 8 = 6y - 7
⇒ 7x = 6y - 15
⇒ x = (6/7)y - 15/7
Substituting x = (6/7)y - 15/7 into GP = HM:
GP = HM
⇒ 8x - 10 = 5y - 3
⇒ 8[(6/7)y - 15/7] - 10 = 5y - 3
⇒ (48/7)y - 120/7 - 10 = 5y - 3
⇒ (13/7)y = 169/7
⇒ y = 13
Now we have found a value for y, substitute this into one of the expressions and solve for x:
8x - 10 = 5y - 3
⇒ 8x - 10 = (5 x 13) - 3
⇒ 8x - 10 = 62
⇒ 8x = 72
⇒ x = 9
