Answer: A. $5 × 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Number of cartons of specialty paper ordered = 24 cartons

Regular price for a carton = $6.88

Discount given off each carton = $1.75

Hence,

Discounted price per carton = $(6.88 - 1.75) = $5.13

Actual amount to be paid for the order :

Discounted price * number of cartons to be ordered

$5.13 * 24

Hence, a reasonable estimate will be :

$5.13 = $5( nearest whole number)

24 can be rounded to 25 (this covers for the $0.13 on the discounted cost per carton)

Reasonable estimate :

$5 × 25

Answer:

The answer is  A. $5 × 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the total number of cartons is 24

the price per carton originally is $6.88

the discount is $1.75

hence the company will have to pay 6.88-1.75= $5.13

hence the price per carton upon removal of the discount is  $5.13

for all 24 cartons, the company will have to pay 24*5.13  

A reasonable estimate from the given option is  

A. $5 × 25

(2x - 5) (5x - 10)
Use FOIL
10x² - 20x - 25x + 50

10x²  - 45x + 50
 

5( 2x² - 9x + 10)

     2x           -5 
      x             -2

5(2x - 5)(x -2)

make each equal to 0
2x - 5 = 0
x - 2 = 0

2x - 5 = 0                        x - 2 = 0
2x - 5 (+5) = 0                x - 2 (+2) = 0 (+2)
2x = 5                             x  = 2
x = 5/2

x = 5/2 , 2

The numbering system we commonly use is called the decimal numbering system because it uses ____ symbols to represent all possib
mafiozo [28]

The numbering system we commonly use is called the decimal numbering system because it uses <u> 10 </u> symbols to represent all possible numbers.

A way of writing numbers is known as a number system.

There are the following number systems:

  1. Decimal number system: "Deci" meaning 10, implies that the number system consists of 10 digits or symbols, namely 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9.
  2. Binary number system: "Bi" meaning 2, implies that the number system consists of 2digits or symbols, namely 0, and 1.
  3. Octal number system: "Oct" meaning 8, implies that the number system consists of 8 digits or symbols, namely 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8.
  4. Hexa-Decimal number system: "Hexa-Deci" meaning 16, implies that the number system consists of 16 symbols, namely 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, and F.

Hence, we can say that the numbering system we commonly use is called the decimal numbering system because it uses <u> 10 </u> symbols to represent all possible numbers.

Work out length of BC
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

assume 13 = z \\ 8 =x  \\ bc = y

by phytagorean theorem

{y}^{2}  +  {x}^{2}  = z^{2}

so

bc = y =  \sqrt{ {z}^{2}  -  {x}^{2} } =  \sqrt{169 - 64}   =  \sqrt{105}
