From the information given 40% represents the savings and is 1, 164 dollars

Therefore 100% represents the full retail price.

We first find out what 1%  represents.

40% = 1,164

1% = x        (where x is the amount  in dollars equivalent to 1%)

 We then simplify the equation

 x × 40%  = 1,164 × 1%

40 x = 1,164

x = 1,164 / 40  →  x =  29.1

So  1% is equivalent to 29.1 dollars.  How about  100%?

100% will be  100 × 29.1 = 2,910

Therefore the  full retail price is  $ 2,910

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

(5,7,8.6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a line on each the x axis and the y axis which intersects at a right triangle. The x axis line is 7 squares and the y axis is 5 squares. Now you can use the Pythagorean theorem.

a^2+b^2=c^2

7^2+5^2=c^2

49+25=c^2

74=c^2

8.6=c

It took Aiden 6 hours to plant 8 trees. How many hours would it take for him to plant 20 trees? 24, 18, 23, 15
Pepsi [2]
<h3>Answer: 15 hours (choice D)</h3>

================================================

Work Shown:

(6 hours)/(8 trees) = (x hours)/(20 trees)

6/8 = x/20

6*20 = 8*x ... cross multiply

120 = 8x

8x = 120

x = 120/8

x = 15

It takes him 15 hours to plant 20 trees.

What is 3√20 - 3√45 + 5√12 in simplest radical form? Show all work.
lesya692 [45]

Answer: -3√5 + 10√3

Step 1: Find the prime factorization of the number inside the radical.

Step 2: Determine the index of the radical. In this case, the index is two because it is a square root, which means we need two of a kind.

Step 3: Move each group of numbers or variables from inside the radical to outside the radical. In this case, the pair of 2’s and 3’s moved outside the radical.

Step 4: Simplify the expressions both inside and outside the radical by multiplying.
