You would take 175 and multiply it by 0.20 which is 35. The you would subtract 35 from 175 because it is marked down so you would get 140. Next, you would take 140 and multiply it by 0.10 and get 14. Finally subtract 14 from 140 to get your answer which would be $126.
Answer:
The number written in standard form is 
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
we know that
substitute
Remember that
When multiplying decimals by 10, move the decimal point one space to the right
In this case move the decimal point eight spaces to the right
therefore
The number written in standard form is
You need to find out how many pints are in 2,4,6,8 quarts. by the way 1 quart equals 2 pints. so to start you off. 2 quarts would be 4 pints and so on
Reduce a 24 cm by 36 cm photo to 3/4 original size.
The most logical way to do this is to keep the width-to-height ratio the same: It is 24/36, or 2/3. The original photo has an area of (24 cm)(36 cm) = 864 cm^2.
Let's reduce that to 3/4 size: Mult. 864 cm^2 by (3/4). Result: 648 cm^2.
We need to find new L and new W such that W/L = 2/3 and WL = 648 cm^2.
From the first equation we get W = 2L/3. Thus, WL = 648 cm^2 = (2L/3)(L).
Solve this last equation for L^2, and then for L:
2L^2/3 = 648, or (2/3)L^2 = 648. Thus, L^2 = (3/2)(648 cm^2) = 972 cm^2.
Taking the sqrt of both sides, L = + 31.18 cm. Then W must be 2/3 of that, or W = 20.78 cm.
Check: is LW = (3/4) of the original 864 cm^2? YES.
