Answer:

$130

Step-by-step explanation:

If the customer used a $10 coupon and paid $152.50 for the tent, that means that without the coupon, the price would be 10 + 152.50 = $162.50

This price is a result of a 25% increase in the old price, so let's call this price '1.25*X'

Then, we can solve for the value of X, that is the original price:

1.25*X = 162.5

X = 162.5/1.25 = $130

The original price of the tent is $130.

Answer:

The original price of the tent was $130,00.

Step-by-step explanation:

The original price of the tent will be called "x". The store increased the value by 25%, so the new value is the original one plus 0.25 of the original one, so the new value is 1.25*x. The costummer paid the increased value less the $10 from the coupon, so we have:

paid = 1.25*x - 10

Since he paid $152.5 for the tent we can compute the original value as shown bellow:

152.5 = 1.25*x - 10

1.25*x = 152.5 + 10

1.25*x = 162.5

x = 162.5/1.25 = 130

The original price of the tent was $130,00.

Mariana [72]

Answer:

Cost of tshirt = £7.29

Cost of what = £0.86

Step-by-step explanation:

2t +3h = 12; 10t + 15h = 60

5t + 4h =33; 10t + 8h = 66

15h -8h = -6

7h = -6; h = -6/7; h = 0.86

2t +3(-6/7) =12

14t -18 = 84

14t = 102; t = 102/ 14; t=7.29

20 Points + Brainliest for the answer and Explanation!!!
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

P+Q=5x^2+4

Q-P=-x^2-4x+16

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

P=3x^2+2x-6

Q=2x^2-2x+10

Calculation of P+Q:

P+Q=3x^2+2x-6+2x^2-2x+10

now, we can combine like terms

P+Q=3x^2+2x^2+2x-2x+10-6

P+Q=5x^2+0+4

P+Q=5x^2+4

Calculation of Q-P:

Q-P=2x^2-2x+10-(3x^2+2x-6)

Firstly, we will distribute negative sign

Q-P=2x^2-2x+10-3x^2-2x+6

now, we can combine like terms

Q-P=2x^2-3x^2-2x-2x+6+10

Q-P=-x^2-4x+16

PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS QUESTION!!!!!
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

we have, 1953125=5⁹, so it cannot be a perfect square. If the last digit of a given number is 5, then the last three digits must be perfect squares, 025 or 225 or 625. Otherwise, that number cannot be a perfect square. And as 125 is not a perfect square, so no number ending with 125 can be a perfect square
