A.
To find a percentage of something, multiply by it's decimal. so 15% is 0.15
In c - 0.15c Louisa is taking the normal cost of a movie subscription and subtracting 15 percent of it off. hence the 15% discount.
We can rewrite this by skipping the subtraction part. If she's getting a 15% discount, you could say she is only paying 85% of it's normal price (100% - 15%). so put 85% in decimal and get 0.85c
Both expressions involve the same discount and both show that she is paying less than full price.
B.
They tell you the width is 16 feet. The length is 4% more than that. in other words the length is 104% the width. In decimal 100% is 1 and 4% is 0.04; 1 + 0.04 is 1.04.
1.04 * 16 = 16.64, which is the length.
Area (assuming the room is a rectangle) is length * width. so 16 * 16.64 whatever that equals is your area.

Answer:
the options are missing, so I looked for a similar question:
- 4 inches by 3 inches
- 3 inches by 1 inch
- 6 inches by 2 inches
the correct options are:
3 inches by 1 inch
6 inches by 2 inches
A scaled copy means that the values of rectangle A are related to the value of rectangle B by a scaling factor. In this case, the scaling factor is 3:1. This means that for every 3 inches in rectangle A, you will have 1 inch in rectangle B.
E.g. imagine that instead of making the rectangle smaller, you would make it larger. Using the same scale 3:1, rectangle B could be 30 inches by 10 inches, or 600 inches by 200 inches.
Answer: the length of the base is 50 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
550,000 or 600,000
780,573 estimates to 780,000 or 800,000
229,615 estimates to 230,000 or 200,000
780,000-230,000=550,000
or
800,000-200,000=600,000
