Brandon wants to buy a new bike. The model he likes is on sale for 15% off its original price. His parents agree to pay for $50 of the cost. If the original cost of the bike is x dollars, which of the expressions below represent the amount Brandon has to pay
Discount on price = 15%
Amount parents agreed to pay = $50
Cost of bike = x
Discount on bike = 0.15x
Cost after discount is removed = (x - 0.15x) = 0.85x
Parent pays $50 of cost price, amount Brandon will have to pay equals :
The x-intercepts are the points where the x value is zero. In this case, to find the "zeros" of the function, set each factor to zero. x-5 -> x=5. x-6 -> x=6. x+4 -> x=-4.
There are four gray rectangles in the graph, showing 2 different probabilities. Add together the areas of the two rectangles located on the right side:
