Answer:

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

First, divide:

58.8 / 98 = 0.6 -  or 60%

58.8 = 60% of 98

Which means that the dress must be 40% off.

Because it is now only 60% of the original price.

Answer:

3x(x - 4)(x + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

3x³ - 6x² - 24x ← factor out common factor of 3x from each term

= 3x(x² - 2x - 8) ← factor the quadratic

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 8) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.

The factors are - 4 and + 2, since

- 4 × 2 = - 8 and - 4 + 2 = - 2, thus

x² - 2x - 8 = (x - 4)(x + 2) and

3x³ - 6x² - 24x = 3x(x - 4)(x + 2)

Add the following rational number =<br> 3/11 and -5/12
tatiyna

Answer:

-19/132

Step-by-step explanation:

To add fractions, find the lowest common multiple of the two denominators and multiply accordingly to make both denominators the same. In this case, the lowest common multiple of 11 and 12 is 132, so we need to multiply the first number by 12 and the second by 11. So we get \frac{36}{132} + (-\frac{55}{132} ) = \frac{36-55}{132}=\frac{-19}{32}-\frac{19}{132}

-4(10-a)=36 what the steps
SpyIntel [72]

Hey there!☺

Answer:\boxed{a=19}

Explanation:

-4(10-a)=36 Equation

−4(10 − a) = 36  Simplify both sides

(−4)(10) + (−4)(−a) = 36 Distribute

−40 + 4a = 36

4a − 40 = 36

4a - 40 + 40 = 36 + 40 Add 40 to both sides

4a = 76

4a/4 = 76/4 Divide both sides by 4

76/4 = 19 Simplify 76/4

a = 19

Hope this helps!

Find all numbers such that three times the number is greater than eight less than the number.
klio [65]

Answer:

ALL SUCH NUMBERS WHICH ARE GREATER THAN -4 satisfy the given condition.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, assume such number = m

Now, given :

3 times the number = 3 x ( m) = 3 m

8 less than the given number =  m - 8

Now, according to the question:

3 times the number  > 8 less than the given number

or, 3 m > m - 8

or, 3m  - m > m - 8 + m

or, 2  m > - 8

or, m > - 4

Hence, all SUCH NUMBERS WHICH ARE GREATER THAN -4 satisfy the given condition.
