Actually heres the breakdown...
year 1  20,000
year 2 decreased 20% is 16,666
year 3 decreased 20% is 13,888
year 4 decreased 20% is 11,574
year 5 decreased 20% is 9,645
year 6 decreased 20% is 8,037
so selling it for $4000 is a major loss on their end so they should NOT sell at that price.

tangare [24]
A=P×(0.8)
A is the price after the markdown
P is the original price
0.8 is the multiplier because 1-(80/100)=0.8
80/100 is the same as 80%, which is the remaining value when 20% of the value of the item is deducted.

A collection of dimes and quarters has a total value of five dollars and contains 29 coins. How much of each kind of coin are th
Feliz [49]

Answer:

15 dimes and 14 quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let q represent number of quarters and d represent number of dimes.

We have been given that a collection of dimes and quarters contains 29 coins. We can represent this information in an equation as:

q+d=29...(1)

q=29-d...(1)

We know each dime is worth $0.10 and each quarter is worth $0.25.

We are also told that the total value of coins is $5. We can represent this information in an equation as:

0.25q+0.10d=5...(2)

Upon substituting equation (1) in equation (2), we will get:

0.25(29-d)+0.10d=5

7.25-0.25d+0.10d=5

7.25-0.15d=5

7.25-7.25-0.15d=5-7.25

-0.15d=-2.25

d=\frac{-2.25}{-0.15}

d=15

Therefore, there are 15 dimes in the collection.

Upon substituting d=15 in equation (1), we will get:

q=29-d\Rightarrow 29-15=14

Therefore, there are 14 quarters in the collection.
