A local sporting goods manager gave each member of a basketball team a coupon for 20% off the regular price of one pair of baske

tball shoes.
Part A:
Tonya selected a pair of shoes for the regular price of $80. How much money will she save by using the 20% off coupon? Justify your answer using equations, models, and/or words to explain your mathematical reasoning.

Part B:
Katie selected a pair of shoes for the regular price of $120. After the 20% off discount is applied, what will be the discounted cost of the shoes (before tax)? Justify your answer using equations, models, and/or words to explain your mathematical reasoning.

Part A: To find the amount of the discount multiply the regular price by the amount of the discount:

80 x 20% = 80 x 0.20 = 16

The discount is $16

Part B:

20% off means she would be paying 80% of the original price ( 100% - 20% = 80%)

Multiply the regular price by 80%:

120 x 80% = 120 x 0.80 = 96

She will pay $96

More on the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Refer to the previous exercise. (a) In 1918 the lean was 2.9071 meters. (The coded value is 7
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

2.9106

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the information of the problem

Year 75   76   77   78    79    80    81      82 83 84 85 86 87

Lean 642 644 656  667   673  688 696  698 713 717 725 742 757

If you use a linear regressor calculator you find that approximately

y = 9.318 x - 61.123

so you just find x = 18  and then the predicted value would be 106mm

therefore the predicted value for the lean in 1918 was 2.9106

Which angle measures are correct? Select three options. mAngle2 = 125° mAngle3 = 55° mAngle8= 55° mAngle12 = 100° mAngle14 = 100
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

<em>m<2  = 125°, m<8 = 55° and m<14 = 100°</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete.

<em>Lines e and f are parallel. The mAngle9 = 80° and mAngle5 = 55°. Parallel lines e and f are cut by transversal c and d. All angles are described clockwise, from uppercase left. Where lines e and c intersect, the angles are: 1, 2, 4, 3. Where lines f and c intersect, the angles are 5, 6, 8, 7. Where lines e and d intersect, the angles are 9, 10, 12, 11. Where lines f and d intersect, the angles are 13, 14, 16, 15. Which angle measures are correct? Select three options. mAngle2 = 125° mAngle3 = 55° mAngle8= 55° mAngle12 = 100° mAngle14 = 100</em>

Given

m<9 = 80°

m<5 = 55°

From the diagram, m<5+m<6 = 180°

Substitute m<5 = 55° into the formula, to get m<6

55+m<6 = 180

m<6 = 180-55

m<6 = 125°

From the diagram m<6 = m<2  = 125° (corresponding angles)

<em>Also on line e</em>, m<9 = m<12 = 80° (vertically opposite angles)

On line f, m<14+m<16 = 180° and m<12 = m<16 = 80

m<14+80°  = 180°

m<14 = 180-80

m<14 = 100°

<em>Also on line f</em>, m<5 = m<8 (vertically opposite angles)

Since m<5 = 55°, m<8 = 55°

Also on line e, m<10 + m<12 = 180

Since m<2 = m<10 = 125° (corresponding angle)

To get m<12,

125+m<12 = 180

m<12 = 180-125

m<12 = 55°

Also m<10 = m<14 = 125° (corresponding angle)

On line e, m<10 = m<11 = 125°  (vertically opposite angle)

Also on line e, m<3 = m<11 (corresponding angle)

This shows that m<10 = m<11 = m<3 = 125°

<em>From the above calculation the angle measure that are correct are:</em>

<em> m<2  = 125°, m<8 = 55° and m<14 = 100°</em>

Candy has to paint a fence if she can paint 2/3 of each section in 1/2 and hour and there are 9 sections how long will it take h
aev [14]
Do you mean half an hour because if she can paint 2/3 of each section in half an hour, it would take her 3 hours to paint all 9 sections. I hope this is correct.

Find the number, if d 12/13 of it is 24
Inessa [10]

Answer:

26 is the number

Step-by-step explanation:

12/13 x = 24

Multiply by 13 on both sides

12x = 24 * 13

12x = 312

Simplify

x = 26

26

Hope this helps :)
