Hello! So the sweater was marked off by 20% and the sale price is $60. To find the original price of the sweater, we can write and solve a proportion. Set it up like this:

60/x = 80/100

This is because 60 is a part of the whole (the original price), and even though the price was marked down by 20%, you still pay 80% of that price. Let's cross multiply the values. 60 * 100 is 6,000. 80 * x is 80x. That makes 6,000 = 80x. Now, divide each side by 80 to isolate the x. 80x/80 cancels out. 6,000/80 is 75. Let's check this. 75 * 80% (0.8) is 60. There. x = 75. The regular price of the sweater is $75.

arsen [322]

Answer:

(5,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

y=x-4\\y=-x+6

Solution :

Equation 1 : y=x-4

Equation 2 : y = -x+6

We will use substitution method

Putting the value of y from equation 1 in equation 2

⇒x-4 = -x+6

⇒x+x= 6+4

⇒2x=10

⇒x=\frac{10}{2}

⇒x=5

Now substituting value of x in equation 1 to get value of y

⇒y=x-4

⇒y=5-4

⇒y=1

Thus the solution of given system of equations is (5,1)

We have also solved it by graphing the equations

You can refer the attached figure.

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

H0: There is no association between state and sporting preference.

H1: There is an association between state and sporting preference

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypothesis to be tested for is whether the factor 'state' is associated with the factor 'sporting preference'.

The study is therefore about 'association' and whether the distributions of sporting preferences are identical across states. In scenario in this case is the test for association which is the most appropriate test.

Two factors are deemed to not be associated unless there is supporting evidence to suggest otherwise. Since the null hypothesis is the default belief, the correct pair of hypotheses are:

H0: There is no association between state and sporting preference.

H1: There is an association between state and sporting preference
