The discount is 60% of regular price, or we can write it as
discount = 60% × regular price
input the numbers
discount = 60% × regular price
discount = 60% × 45
discount = 60/100 × 45
discount = 2,700/100
discount = 27
The answer is $27
It’s negativeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Answer:
when in doubt choose c
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given</u>:
The given triangle is a similar triangle.
The length of the hypotenuse is 18 units.
The length of the leg is a.
The length of the part of the hypotenuse is 16 units.
We need to determine the proportion used to find the value of a.
<u>Proportion to find the value of a:</u>
We shall find the proportion to determine the value of a using the geometric mean leg rule.
Applying the leg rule, we have;
![$\frac{\text { hypotenuse }}{\text { leg }}=\frac{\text { leg }}{\text { part }}$](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%24%5Cfrac%7B%5Ctext%20%7B%20hypotenuse%20%7D%7D%7B%5Ctext%20%7B%20leg%20%7D%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B%5Ctext%20%7B%20leg%20%7D%7D%7B%5Ctext%20%7B%20part%20%7D%7D%24)
Substituting the values of hypotenuse, leg and part, we get;
![\frac{18}{a}=\frac{a}{16}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B18%7D%7Ba%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7Ba%7D%7B16%7D)
Thus, the proportion used to find the value of a is ![\frac{18}{a}=\frac{a}{16}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B18%7D%7Ba%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7Ba%7D%7B16%7D)
Hence, Option D is the correct answer.
