Hey there!!

Let's take a closer look at the question,

We have the original price with included 15% tax

This original price is first reduced by 35% , first let's solve this.

35% = 35 / 100 = 0.35

0.35 × 1899

... $664.65 = 35% of of $1899.00

It would be sold for

... 1899 - 664.65

... $1234.35

Now, this price is further reduced by 20%

20% = 20/100 = 0.20

... 0.20 × 1234.35

... $246.87

This is 20% of 1234.35

Now, the price it would be sold for =

... $1234.35 - $246.87

... $987.42 is the final price the sofa would be sold for.

Hope my answer helps!!

Your answer is $1135.60

Work below:


The starting price of the sofa is $1,899.

35% of 1,899 is 664.65.

1899 - 664.65 = 1234.35

20% of 1234.35 is 246.87.

1234.35 - 246.87 = 987.48.

15% of 987.48 is 148.122, which can be rounded to 148.12.

987.48 + 148.12 = 1135.60

That is your answer.

n a jar of coins, the ratio of nickels to dimes is 5:7. If the jar contains 350 dimes, how many nickels are there?
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

250 nickles

Step-by-step explanation:

Nickles and dimes are coins with different currency values. One nickel(N) is equal to 5 cents while one dime(D) is equal to 10 cents. The ratio of nickel:dime is 5:7, to put into the equation it will be:

N/D= 5/7

7N=5D   ---> 1st equation

There are 350 dimes, the equation will be:

D=350   ----> 2nd equation

We can find out the number of nickels by substitute the 2nd equation into the first. The calculation will be

7N=5D

N= 5D/7

N=5(350)/7

N=  250

Choose the fraction that is greater than 3/18٫is less than 50/100٫and has 9 as its denominator
erik [133]

Answer:

4/9

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The denominator is the bottom value of a fraction, therefore we can discount 9/2
  • 1/9 = 2/18.  2/18 is smaller than 3/18 so we can discount 1/9
  • 50/100 = 0.5
    5/9 = 0.55555...
    0.55555... is greatest than 0.5, therefore we can discount 5/9
  • Answer is 4/9

Given the rule: an=7(1/2)n-1 identify the first term
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

  • using the rule given: 2.5
  • using an exponential rule: 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Evaluating the linear rule given, for n = 1, we have ...

  a1 = 7(1/2)(1) -1 = 7/2 -1 = 5/2 = 2.5

_____

We suspect you may intend the exponential function ...

  an = 7(1/2)^(n-1)

Then, for n = 1, we have ...

  a1 = 7(1/2)^(1 -1) = 7(1) = 7 . . . . the first term is 7

_____

When writing an exponential expression in plain text, it requires the exponential operator, a caret (^). If the exponent contains any arithmetic, as this one does, it must be enclosed in parentheses.
