Bargain Town has 30% off all dresses. Find the sale price of a dress that regularly sells for $98

1 answer:

3 0

You want to buy something that costs $98, and it's on sale for 30% off. What is the item's sale price?
First, convert the 30% to a real mathematical number. For percents, this is always done by dividing the 30% by 100%, or 30% / 100% = 0.300.

Second, find out what 30% of $98 is. This is the amount of the sale discount. This is always found by mulitplying 0.300 by the item's cost $98, like this:

0.300 x $98 = $29.40.
So for this sale, you'll save $29.40 on this item.

This means, the cost of the item to you is

$98 - $29.40 = $68.60.

Each student at a high school throws away two pounds of garbage a day. If there are s students at the school and the non-student

damaskus [11]

ANSWER

2(s+175)

EXPLANATION

The total amount of garbage thrown away at the school each day is the amount of garbage thrown away by the students plus the amount of garbage thrown away by non-students.

total = lb students + lb non-students

lb students is 2s as each student throws away two pounds a day.

lb non-students is 350. Therefore, the total amount of pounds of garbage thrown away each day is

total = 2s + 350

We can factor out a 2 from this expression as each term is divisible by 2 and that is the greatest common factor. We end up with

total = 2(s+175)

If you were to graph the linear equation 4x+6y=−12 on the semester test, you would need to determine the x- and y-intercepts, pl

goblinko [34]

The x intercept is -3, and the y intercept is -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation given is 4x+6y= -12

Rewrite the equation in slope intercept form of y=mx +c where c is the y intercept

y=mx+c

6y=-4x-12

y= -4/6 x -12/6

y=-2/3x -2

c= -2

To get x intercept replace value of y in the equation with 0;

y= -2/3 x -2

0= -2/3 x -2

2= -2/3 x

2*3=-2x

6=-2x

6/-2 =x

-3 =x

x intercept is -3

In the xy-plane, the equations x + 2y = 10 and

konstantin123 [22]

By solving given equations, the value of c is 30.

Given two equations

x + 2y = 10 and

3x + 6y = c

These lines represents the same line for some constant c.

Value of c:

x + 2y = 10-------------(1)

3x + 6y = c-------------(2)

Dividing equation (2) by 3

$\frac{3x}{3}+ \frac{6y}{3} =\frac{c}{3}$

After solving the above equation, we get

x + 2y = c/3-----------(3)

Remember that a line is written as ax + by = c, in our case, both lines have a =1 and b = 2. Therefore, in orther that the two lines are equal, we need that, 10 = c/3

c = 10 × 3 = 30

c = 30

Therefore,

The value of c is 30.
