Answer: $172.50

Step-by-step explanation: Method 1:

The original price of the item is $230.

The discount is 25%.

Let's find 25% of $230.

25% of $230 = 0.25 * $230 = $57.50

The discount amount is $57.50.

Now we subtract the amount of the discount from the original cost.

Sale price = $230 - $57.50 = $172.50

Method 2.

The original price is $230.

That means that $230 is 100% of the price since 100% of a thing means the entire thing.

Since the discount is 25% of the price, we subtract 25% from 100%, 100% - 25% = 75%.

The sale price is 75% of the original price.

Now we find 75% of $230.

75% of $230 = 0.75 * $230 = $172.50

Answer:

195.25

Step-by-step explanation:  

\frac{15}{100}  =  \frac{x}{230 }  \\ x =  \frac{15 \times 230}{100}  =  \frac{3450}{100 }  = 34.5

15% of $230 is $34.5

230  - 34.5 = 195.5

so the price is $195.5

hope this helps

The original price of the item is $230.

The discount is 25%.

Let's find 25% of $230.

25% of $230 = 0.25 * $230 = $57.50

The discount amount is $57.50.

Now you need to subtract the amount of the discount from the original cost.

Sale price = $230 - $57.50 = $172.50

Help stepmby step pls
pshichka [43]

Answer:

Ima say the answer is 9, likely she bought 6 more new and with the fire half were destroyed of this 6 new posters only are 3 left so she has 12 posters left that means only 3 are added to how much posters she had before, so in some words she started with 9 also 9+3=12.

For where it says write and equation I think the answer would be something like 9+6-3. In where it says work I want to assume is your explaination so you can use the first paragraph I made. Check Its prob a re do of the work you have done to make sure its right. Coming with "Define the value" Im not sure of this but i think is to define your equation.

Find x-intercept and y-intercept then you can draw the graph.

For example, the first question.

y=-3x+2

To find the y-intercept, x = 0

So substitute x = 0 in the equation.

y=0+2\\y=2

[Note]: You don't need to find the y-intercept, because from, y=ax+b

a is slope and b is y-intercept, you know b then you know y-intercept. For example b = 2 then y-intercept is at 2.

To find the x-intercept, y = 0

-3x+2=0\\-3x=-2\\x=\frac{2}{3}

Therefore, y-intercept = 2 and x-intercept = 2/3

(Try do another problems, just do the same. When you want to find the y-intercept, just look at the value of b or substitute x = 0 and When you want to find the x-intercept, just substitute y = 0 then solve for x.)

Give an example of An equation that is a linear function
Elodia [21]
Example: y = 2x + 1 is a linear equation: The graph of y = 2x+1 is a straight line. When x increases, y increases twice as fast, so we need 2x. When x is 0, y is already 1.

Lily made $75.36 more than Layla did.  If Layla raised her price to $1.00, she would still not make more money than Lily.

Use a proportion to find the number of cupcakes Lily makes in 8 hours.  She bakes 7 cupcakes in 10 minutes; we want to know how many she makes in 8(60)=480 (since there are 8 hours and each hour is 60 minutes):

7/10 = x/480

Cross multiply:
7*480 = 10*x
3360 = 10x

Divide both sides by 10:
3360/10 = 10x/10
336 = x

Lily bakes 336 cupcakes.

She sells 2/3 of these; 2/3(336) = 2/3(336/1) = 672/3 = 224 cupcakes sold.

Each cupcake is sold for $1.29; 224(1.29) = 288.96

To find the number of cupcakes Layla makes in 8 hours, we set up a different proportion.  We know she bakes 8 cupcakes in 12 minutes; we want to know how many she bakes in 8(60) = 480 minutes:

8/12 = x/480
8*480 = 12*x
3840 = 12x

Divide both sides by 12:
3840/12 = 12x/12
320 = x

She bakes 320 cupcakes.  She sells 75% of those; 75% = 75/100 = 0.75:
0.75(320) = 240

Each of those 240 cupcakes sells for $0.89:
0.89(240) = 213.60

This means Lily makes 288.96-213.60 = 75.36 more than Layla.

If Layla raised her price to $1.00, she would make 1(240) = $240; this is still less than Lily.
