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.
Yo! This is the answer. Hope it helped
Answer:
- 3x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
so it takes 2.6 of hours which is the same as 2 hours and 36 minutes for them to reach eachother.
Answer:
$341.07
Step-by-step explanation:
Hanna and Dawson both invested at 3.2% = 0.032
Hannah has balance of 31,000 in account
Dawson has balance of 42000 in account
Interests earned by both are
1)Hannah -P(1+i)^-n
=31000(1+0.032)^-1
=31000(1.032)^-1
=31000(0.968992)
=$30038.752
=$30038.75
Interest earned by Dawson is $31,000 - $30038.75 = $961.25
2)Dawson- P(1+i)^-n
=42000(1+0.032)^-1
=42000(1.032)^-1
=42000(0.968992)
=$40697.664
=$$40697.664
Interest earned by Dawson is $42,000 - $40697.66= $1302.32
3) Hence the amount that Dawson earns than is:
=$1302.32-$961.25
= $341.07
