The percentage discount on the item will be equal to 8%.
<h3>What is the percentage?</h3>
The Percentage is defined as representing any number with respect to the 100. It is denoted by the sign %.
Given that:-
- Price of the item before tax and discount = $17
- After discount and before tax price is = $15.64
The percentage of the discount will be calculated as:-
Percentage discount = ( 17 - 16.64 ) / ( 17 )
Percentage discount= ( 1.36 ) / ( 17 )
Percentage discount = 0.08 x 100 = 8%
Therefore the percentage discount on the item will be equal to 8%.

Answer:
its 373248
Step-by-step explanation:
I got this by 2squared 9 and 3squared 6
Write it out as a set of equation:
Let x be number of 8 cent stamps, y be 10 cent stamps, and z be 2 cent stamps.
x=y
z=x+y
8x+10y+2z=440
Lets first solve for x:
from x=y and z=2x(from first equation) the last equation is
8x+10x+4x=440
22x=440
x=20
know that x=20, you also know that y=20 as well, since z=x+y, z=40.
So 20 8-cent stamps, 20 10-cent stamps, and 40 2-cent stamps.
Answer:
When x = -2 or when x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
x+2 is a factor in the denominator. If x = -2, the factor becomes zero.
x-7 is a factor in the denominator. If x = 7, the factor becomes zero.
We can't have zero as a factor in a denominator because division by zero is not defined. It doesn't have any meaning.
The answer to this question would be B, -3. The reason for this is because when you have an equation in slope intercept form, it would be y = mx + b. In this case your b is equal to 0 so you have only y = mx. The variable m represents the slope, which is in this case, equal to -3. Hope this helps.
