Answer:
The simpler way is:
SP = 0.85*RP
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that we have a given amount A. and now we take a given percentage, X%, off.
The new amount will be:
New amount = A - (X%/100%)*A = A*(1 - X%/100%)
This is the general formula.
In this case, we know that the store has advertised 15% off, then we have X% = 15%
Then if:
SP = sales price
RP = regular price
We will have the equation:
SP = RP - (15%/100%)*RP = RP - 0.15*RP
This is what Jill found, but if we use the general equation above, we will find that:
SP = RP*(1 - 15%/100%) = RP*(1 - 0.15) = RP*0.85
So we just need to multiply the regular price by 0.85 to get the sales price.
Well, the answer is 12. This is because you need to add the inverse operation. So for (6x-6) You add 6 or the second number( the one that doesn't have the x in front of it)because it is the opposite/inverse operation.You basically just add 6 and because the opposite of subtraction is addition. You then cross is out because it will equal zero. Then with the 6x, you add 6 as well because what you do to one side, you must do the same to the other. so 6+6=12. SO x=12.

Answer:
<em>The correct option will be: (b) 7 feet.</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose, the length of the garden is
feet.
As the <u>shape of the garden is like a square, then the area of the garden</u> will be:
feet²
Given that, the <u>area is 52 square feet</u>. So, the equation will be.......

So, the approximate length of the garden will be 7 feet.
Theoretical probablity=desiredoutcomes/totalpossibleoutcomes
desired=number of white marbles=20
total possible=red+blue+white=30+50+20=100
so theoretical probablity=20/100=2/10=0.2=20%
