$25.60

20%=.2
since it's 20% OFF, you want to get rid of .2 of the 32.
so 1-.2=.8
and .8 x 32 = 25.60

Answer:

Sale Price = $ 25.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given That

The original price of an item = $ 32

The amount it is market off = 20 %

Sale Price= ?

The sale price can be found as follows:

Sale Price = Original Price - Discount on Original Price

Sale Price = 32 - 20 % of 32

Sale Price = 32 - $\frac{20}{100}$ ×32

Sale Price = 32 - 0.20× 32

Sale Price = 32 - 6.4

Sale Price = $ 25.6

So, our sale price is $ 25.6

If you need the geometry and trigonometry I'll post those. Instead I found an answer at this link: http://jwilson.coe.uga.edu/EMAT6450/Class%20Projects/Scarpelli/Scarpelli_MathematicsBaseballActivity.....
The distance from home plate to the pitcher's mound is 60.5 feet and from home plate to second base is 127.28 feet.
Pitcher's Mound to 2nd base = 66.78 feet

Given those distances, we KNOW a 50 foot sprinkler will NOT reach home plate and second base from the pitcher's mound.

I didn't figure out the pitcher's mound to 1st or to 3rd, since the question is already answered.

Suppose that in a random selection of 100 colored candies, 26% of them are blue. The candy company claims that the percentage

quester [9]

Answer: a) -0.2252, b) 0.8219

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Sample size n = 100

Probability that candies are blue = p= 0.26

Probability that company claims that it is blue candy = P = 0.27

So, Q = 1-P= 1-0.27 = 0.73

So, Null hypothesis : $H_0:p=P$
