No, it is not 35% off... Let me explain.  Let's say the original price is $100 to make the math easy.  When you take 25% off then take an additional 10% off, the 10% is off of the discounted price, so

100 x 25% = 100 x .25 = 25 dollar discount
New price = $75

Now 10% off of $75
10% x 75 = .10 x 75 = $7.50 discount
New price = 75 - 7.50 = $67.50


Now, if you just took 35% off of $100

100 x 35% = 100 x .35 = $35 discount
New Price = 100 - 35 = $65

Bottom line... when you take an "extra" percentage off, you are taking a percentage of a smaller number, so the discount is not as big.

Anit [1.1K]
Answer : 4

Explanation : you minus the 2 on both sides bc they have the same "last name" by doing this you get 12 on the left and elimination 2 on the right which leaves you with 12=3x. Divide 3 on both sides which 12/3 =4 and ur left with x. So the final equation is 4=x

Why do you think users of mobile payments are at a higher risk for financial mismanagement?
Bad White [126]

Mobile payments are payment transactions done with the help of a mobile phone. Think Venmo, Square Cash and Gogle Wallet, used to transfer money and even to shop at participating retailers – all with the tap of screen. According to a recent global study on mobile payment transactions, the mobile payments market was worth $550 billion in 2015 and is expected to grow more than 39% by 2020. That is explosive growth by any calculation.

But within all the buzz and investment that is flowing into this industry lies a cautionary tale, one that AnnaMaria Lusardi, director of the Global Financial Literacy Excellence Center (GFLEC) at George Washington University in Washington, D.C., explains like this: “We can make payments with the touch of a button, but the impact of this rapid innovation is not being examined.”
