I agree with you on this problem. It is A. If that is the final answer, the negative exponent must be flipped in order to be positive. According to the equation, it is not positive so it is not a simpflied polynomial.
Answer: the original price of the shorts was $25
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the original price of the shorts.
The store is having a sale in which all items are reduced by 20%. This means that the amount of discount on the shorts is
20/100 × x = 0.2x
The price of the shorts would be
x - 0.2x = 0.8x
If the sales tax is 5%, then the amount of sales tax charged is
5/100 × 0.8x = 0.04x
The final cost of the shorts would be
0.8x + 0.04x = 0.84x
Including tax, Jennifer paid $21 for a pair of shorts. This means that
0.84x = 21
x = 21/0.84
x = 25
Answer:
254.5 in.^2
Step-by-step explanation:
diameter of mirror = 12 in.
radius of mirror = diameter/2 = 13 in. / 2 = 6 in.
frame width = 3 in.
radius if combined mirror and frame = 6 in. + 3 in. = 9 in.
A = (pi)(r^2)
A = 3.14159 * (9 in.)^2
A = 3.14159 * 81 in.^2
A = 254.5 in.^2
There are 650 toothpicks in a regular sized box.
That is the volume of the box = 650 toothpicks
Jumbo box is made by doubling all the dimensions.
We know volume = length * width * height = L*W*H
We double all the dimensions for Jumbo box
L becomes 2L
W become 2W
H becomes 2H
Volume of Jumbo box = 2L * 2W * 2H = 8*L*W*H
Volume of jumbo box = 8 * volume of small box
= 8 * 650= 5200
The Jumbo box holds 5200 toothpicks .
