Answer: Tom will pay $20.01 lesser than the original price.

Step-by-step explanation:

The original price of the phone is $137.99. It is now on sale for 1/10 off the original price. This means that the discount on the original price is 1/10 × 137.99 = 13.799. The new price will be the original price - the discount.

The new price is 137.99 - 13.799 = $124.191

Tom has a coupon for an extra 5% off the sale price. It means that Tom would pay 5% off $124.191. The amount that Tom would pay will be

124.191 - (5/100 × 124.191) = 124.191 - 6.20955 = $117.98

The difference between the original price and the price that Tom will pay is

137.99 - 117.98 = $20.01

1. Convert the mixed numbers into improper numbers (-3 2/5 = -17/5 and 8 1/5 = 41/5). Then add 17/5 to both sides when means b=58/5

2. Multiply both sides by the reciprocal of -7/3 (which is -3/7). So n=18

What is the value of x?<br><br> Enter your answer, as a decimal, in the box.
iragen [17]

Answer:

x = 67.50 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider, ΔMAB and ΔMNP,

∠M = ∠M (Common)

Given AB║NP and let MN as transversal,

∠MAB = ∠MNP (alternate angle)

Also, Given AB║NP and let MP as transversal,

∠MBA = ∠MPN (alternate angle)

Therefore, ΔMAB ≅ ΔMNP (By AAA similarity )

Thus, by CPCT,

\frac{MA}{MN}=\frac{MB}{MP}=\frac{AB}{NP}

consider first two ratios,

\frac{MA}{MN}=\frac{MB}{MP}

Substitute the values, MA = MN - AN = 49.5 ft

\frac{49.5}{71.5}=\frac{x}{97.5}

On solving for x , we get, x = 67.50 ft

Thus, value of x is 67.50 ft

-3(8n - 5) - 2n = 8n - 21
BigorU [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First you do the parentheses so the -3 x 8n= -24 and -3 x -5= 15

so it will look like this. -24n+15-2n=8n-21

Now combine like terms the -24n-2n.

-26n+15=8n-21 now subtract 8n now it will look like this

-34n+15=-21 now -15 from -21

-34n=-36

now if you want n by its self divide -34 and -36
