Answer:
34/8-16/3-14/9
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Part 1
The mistake is Step 2: P + 2·x = 2·y
Part 2
The correct answer is
Step 2 correction: P - 2·x = 2·y
(P - 2·x)/2 = y
Step-by-step explanation:
Part 1
The student's steps are;
Step 1; P = 2·x + 2·y
Step 2: P + 2·x = 2·y
Step 3: P + 2·x/2 = y
The mistake in the work is in Step 2
The mistake is moving 2·x to the left hand side of the equation by adding 2·x to <em>P </em>to get; P + 2·x = 2·y
Part 2
To correct method to move 2·x to the left hand side of the equation, leaving only 2·y on the right hand side is to subtract 2·x from both sides of the equation as follows;
Step 2 correction: P - 2·x = 2·x + 2·y - 2·x = 2·x - 2·x + 2·y = 2·y
∴ P - 2·x = 2·y
(P - 2·x)/2 = y
y = (P - 2·x)/2
20% off means it is selling for 80% of the original price ( 100% - 20% =80%)
Divide the sale price by 80% as a decimal:
380/0.80 = 475
The original price was $475
Justify:
Multiply the original price by 20% and subtract:
475 x 0.20 = 95
475-95 = $380 which is the sale price.
Answer:
32.8
Step-by-step explanation:
C^2 - B^2 = A^2
34.6 ^2 - 11^2 = A^2
1197.16 - 121 = A^2
1076.16 = A^2
