Answer:

NO.

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem states the shirt is 25% OFF the original price not 25% OF it. Therefore after solving how much of it is 25% which in this case is $5, you would have to subtract that 25% from the original price. 25-5=20. The correct answer is $20.

The price of the shift is $20.

20% off of $25 means to subtract $5 off of $25, making it $20.

A(n) ______ is the common side of two consecutive angles in a polygon.2.A statement you can probe and then use as a reason in la
Nikolay [14]
An ??????


Well to figure this out, we will use mathematics. You do 90% of the an and then do 39 which is close to 90 and then because it has 9 in the number that is given. So, 213 is incorrect. 90% of the things like 213, = 39. And if it equals 39, then here comes 90. 90 comes in as a number to help, but 213 does to. So we will divide the number 9. 9 = 2, and since 213 has the first digit 2 in the number, that means that the answer is An number that equals 2 is the common side of two consecutive angles in a polygon.

The ratio of boys to girls in a classroom is 5:6. If there are 55 students in total, how many more girls are there than boys?
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer: there are 5 more girls than boys.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of boys to girls in a classroom is 5:6. The total ratio is the sum of the proportion. It becomes 5 + 6 = 11

If there are 55 students in total, it means that the number of boys in the class is

5/11 × 55 = 25 boys

Also, the number of girls in the class is

6/11 × 55 = 30 girls

Therefore, the difference between the number of girls and boys in the class is

30 - 25 = 5 girls

How can you determine whether a given number makes an equation true?​
EastWind [94]

Answer:

By plotting in the number in the equation (aka where all the x’s are variables are) and seeing if it works.

Step-by-step explanation:

For example, let’s use the problem:

3x + 4 = 16

if the given number is 4, we fill it in for x-

3 (4) + 4= 16

solve to see if true:

12 + 4 = 16

16 = 16

hence, the given number 4 makes the equation true!

hopes this helps, have a great day :)

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Susan plans to use 120 feet of fencing to enclose a rectangular area for a garden. Which equation best mode
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Area = 60x - x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Perimeter = 120

Side\ 1 = x

Required

The area of the garden

First, we calculate the length of the other side using:

Perimeter = 2 *(Side\ 1 + Side\ 2)

This gives:

120 = 2 *(x + Side\ 2)

Divide both sides by 2

60 = x + Side\ 2

Make Side 2 the subject

Side\ 2 = 60 - x

So, the area of the garden is:

Area = Side\ 1 * Side\ 2

Area = x * (60 - x)

Expand

Area = 60x - x^2
