Original price=125
discount=x dollars or percent I will find both
sale price=81.25

so origonal-discount=sale
125-x=81.25
subtract 125 from both sides
-x=-43.75
multiply -1
x=43.75
the discount was 43.75

to convert into fraction divide 43.75 by 125 then multiply by 100
43.75/125=0.35
0.35 times 100=35%

35% discount

A child building a tower with Blocks uses 15 for the bottom row. Each row has 2 fewer blocks than the previous row. What formula
xenn [34]

Answer:

B)blocks in 5th row=15+(5-1)(-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Number of block in bottom row=15

Each row has 2 fewer blocks than the previous row

We have to find the formula would you use to find the number of blocks in the 5th row.

Number of blocks in  second row=15-2=15+1(-2)

Number of blocks in third row=15-2-2=15+2(-2)

Number of blocks in 4th row=15-2-2-2=15+3(-2)

Number of blocks in 5th row=15-2-2-2-2=15+4(-2)

Therefore, number of block in 5th row

15+(5-1)(-2)

This is required formula to find the number of blocks in the 5th row

Hence, option B is true.

B)blocks in 5th row=15+(5-1)(-2)

Una persona asegura que su casa tiene forma rectangular y que el perímetro de la misma es de 18 m y que además, su área es de 21
leva [86]

Considerando las fórmulas para el perímetro y el área de un rectángulo, hay que se chega en una <u>eccuación cuadrática sin solución</u>, o sea, las medidas no son posibles y la persona estaba mintiendo.

<h3>¿Cuál es la fórmula para el perímetro y el área de un rectángulo?</h3>

Considerando que las dimensiones son l y w, hay que:

  • El perímetro es: P = 2(l + w).
  • El área es: A = lw.

El <u>perímetro es de 18 m</u>, o sea:

2(l + w) = 18

l + w = 9

l = 9- w.

El <u>área es de 21 m²</u>, o sea:

lw = 21

(9- w)w = 21

-w² + 9 - 21 = 0

w² - 9w + 21 = 0

El discriminante es dado por:

D = 9² - 4 x 1 x 21 = -3.

El discriminante negativo implica que la <u>eccuación cuadrática no tiene solución</u>, o sea, las medidas no son posibles y la persona estaba mintiendo.

The manager of a warehouse would like to know how many errors are made when a product’s serial number is read by a bar-code read
maw [93]
<span>In order to determine the total number of errors that were made by the bar code scanner, we first have to calculate how many total scans were made. Because there were six items scanned 1,000 times each, there were 6,000 total scans made. Next, we have to add up the total number of errors made by each item (36+14+21+39+11+2). As a result, there were a total of 123 errors made during the 6,000 scans.</span>
