Answer:
3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Set it equal to 0
5x-3=0
Then solve for x
5x=3
x=3/5
Check
5(3/5) - 3
3-3
0
If you're comparing 1.435 * 10^(-3) mm to 1.435 * 10^3 mm, then the more reasonable measurement is 1.435 * 10^3 mm since,
1.435 * 10^3 mm = 1435 mm = 1.435 meters
1 meter is about 3.28 feet approximately
So 1.435 meters is slightly larger (about 4.708 feet) which is a fairly reasonable distance between the tracks on a railroad.
-------------------
Something like 1.435 * 10^(-3) mm is equal to 0.001435 mm, which is far less than 1 mm.
I think if I did it right it should be B
Well, the area of a trapezoid is A = (

+

) * h * 1/2 so you can use the area of a parallelogram, which is A = l * w, by splitting the trapezoid into 2 triangles and one rectangle. So you'd use A = l * w for the rectangle and A = 1/2bh for the triangles. You'd get the same answer!
Find what percent of $39.00 the sale price was.
=> 15/39*100=38.4%
now subtract from 100% to get the mark down percentage.
100-38.4=61.6
Final answer:
Marked down 61.6%
