I find it easiest to subtract and add the percentages to make a multiplier, then use that.

After the man's discount, he pays (100% - 12%) = 88% of the list price. After tax, he pays (100% + 3%) = 103% of the discounted price.

The amount he actually pays is $255×0.88×1.03 = $231.13.

The best choice is ...
  (B) $231.13

To cancel a term.its necessary to add the _____to both sides of the equation​
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

  To cancel a term, it is necessary to add the <em>opposite of the term</em> to both sides of the equation

Step-by-step explanation:

Adding opposites creates a sum of zero. Zero added to anything else does not change the its value. So, adding the opposite of a term effectively removes it from (that side of) the equation.

At top cruising speed, a mako shark can swim 4 kilometers in 1/10 hour. A blue whale can swim 5 kilometers in 1/4 an hour which
Pie

Answer: Mako shark

Step-by-step explanation:

We will calculate the speed of the sharks to know which is faster.

A mako shark can swim 4 kilometers in 1/10 hour.

Speed = Distance/Time

= 4/(1/10)

= 40km/hour

A blue whale can swim 5 kilometers in 1/4 an hour.

This shows that the Mako shark is faster as it swims at rate of 40km/hour and the blue whale swims at 5km/hour. It's faster by 35km.

= 40km - 5km

= 35km
