So if the dress is 25% off, that means you are paying 75% of the original price.

sale price = original price x 0.75
225 = original price x 0.75

divide both sides by 0.75 to isolate original price

225/0.75 = (original price x 0.75)/0.75
300 = original price

So if the dress is 25% off, that means you are paying 75% of the original price.


sale price = original price x 0.75

225 = original price x 0.75


divide both sides by 0.75 to isolate original price


225/0.75 = (original price x 0.75)/0.75

300 = original price

What is the solution to the following system of equations? x+y=5
marta [7]

Answer:

(3,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve this via elimination method:

\begin{cases} x+y=5\\x-y=1\end{cases}

By subtracting equation 2 from equation one we obtain:

\begin{cases} x+y=5\\-(x-y=1)\end{cases}\\\\0x+2y=4\\\\y=2

Next we can use any equation either 1 or 2 to determine what x is, I'll use equation 1.  Let y=2 and so:

x+y=5\\\\x+2=5\\x=5-2\\\\x=3

Therefore the solution for the system of equations is:

x=3 and y = 2 as an ordered pair we have (3,2)

The graph of a quadratic function has roots at -3 and -7 and a vertex at (-5, 4). What is the equation of the function in vertex
melomori [17]

Answer:

y = -(x + 5)² + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The roots are -3 and -7, so:

y = a (x + 3) (x + 7)

Distribute and complete the square:

y = a (x² + 10x + 21)

y = a (x² + 10x + 25 − 4)

y = a (x² + 10x + 25) − 4a

y = a (x + 5)² − 4a

The vertex is (-5, 4), so a = -1.

y = -(x + 5)² + 4

Using the given zero, find one other zero of f(x). i is a zero of f(x).= x4 - 2x3 + 38x2 - 2x + 37.
statuscvo [17]
If i is a zero, -i is also a zero.
The way you get a complex zero is by taking the square root of a negative number. Taking the sqrt (-1) = + and - i
