 <span>You only need an estimate? Great. Think of the necessary material as 6 yards, so ten costumes would take 60 yards. Then think of the fabric on hand as 240 yards, so taking 60 yards away from that would leave [an estimated] 180 yards of fabric. 

For an equation, use: 

F" = F' - 5.8 C 

Where F' is the initial fabric stock, F" is the remaining fabric, and C is the count of costumes. 

In exact numbers, the formula works out to: 

F" = 238.2 - (5.8 * 10) 

F" = 180.2 

The estimate was very close. 

Good luck.</span>

Strawberries cost $2 per pound. Kate buys 5 pounds and gets 20% discount on the total cost. How much does Kate pay for the straw
Tema [17]

The total cost without the discount is given by:

C = (2) * (5)\\C = 10$

Then, to find the discounted amount, we make the following rule of three:

10 $ ------------------> 100%

x ----------------------> 20%

From here, we clear the value of x.

We have then:

x = (\frac{20}{100}) * (10)\\x = 2

Then, the cost of the Strawberries with the discount is:

10 - 2 = 8 $

Answer:

Kate pays for the strawberries about $ 8.

Plz help me!!!<br><br> find the value of {3-2(3-4)^3}^3
maxonik [38]

Answer:

-226,981

Step-by-step explanation:

This is how you do it.

First, you do 3-2 which is 1.

Then, you do 3-4 to the 3rd power which is -61.

After, you do 1*-61 because there are parenthesis, which equals -61.

Then, you do -61, which is the total of everything in parenthesis, and do it times the power of 3 to get -226,981.

Hope it helps!!^_^
