Tannin and Dax bought a new video game for $48 to use the coupon for 25% off how much would the game cost if they paid full pric
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

$64

Step-by-step explanation:

After using a 25% discount coupon, they paid 48 for the video game.

It means, <em>which number, decreased by 25%, would give us 48?</em>

<em />

First, 25% to decimal is:

25/100 = 0.25

Now, if we let the original price be "x", we can say:

x decreased by 0.25 of x would give us 48

Translating this to algebraic equation gives us:

x - 0.25x = 48

Now, we solve this:

x - 0.25x = 48\\0.75x=48\\x=\frac{48}{0.75}\\x=64

If they paid full price, the video game would cost $64

Answer:

20 inches x 26 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

set up an equation: (2x)(x+7)=520

now just solve it

2x^2+14x=520

x^2+7x-260 = 0

factor: (x-13)(x+20)

x = 13 and -20

13 is the only one that works because you can't have a negative side length

13+7=20

13*2=26

lmk if you don't understand how to solve that equation

Veata wants to know what percent of students at her school are left-hand dominant. Veata recalls that when students were randoml
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
Randomly assigned group. the art class isn't random and only consists of a select type of people--it is not a representative sample; maybe more left handed people enjoy art than do right handed people! therefore, even though the randomly assigned group is smaller, it is the better estimate.
