Answer:

$25.80

Step-by-step explanation:

40% = 40/ 100 = 4/10 = 0,4

There is a 40% discount, which means that the amount multiplied by more then 1 (for example 1,4) would increase the amount... That isn't right because it is a discount!

So you need to subtract the 40%, so (1 - 0.4 =) 0.6

The amount multiplied by 0.6 will be the correct amount, being $43 * 0.6 = $25.80 (rounded to the nearest cent).

The amount the item actually cost after the discount is $25.80

Let ax-by=c, where a,b,c>0. Rewrite the equation in slope-intercept form
Elis [28]

Here we are required to rewrite the equation ax-by=c, where a,b,c>0 In the slope-intercept form.

The slope-intercept form of ax-by=c is ;

y = (a/b)x - (c/b).

There a no. of ways to write the equation of a line; however, the most popular of these ways is the slope-intercept form.

  • The slope-intercept form usually takes the form ; y = mx + c.

Therefore, the equation ax-by=c can be rewritten thus;

  • ax - c = by
  • By divIDing both sides of the equation by b, we have ;
  • (a/b)x - (c/b) = y

Consequently, the slope-intercept form of ax-by=c is ;

  • y = (a/b)x - (c/b).
  • where , (a/b) is the slope(m)
  • and (-c/b) is the intercept(c).

Translate the sentence into an equation using n to represent the unknown number. Then solve the equation for n.
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

n/11 = 0.5; n = 5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Quotient tells us this will be a division problem.

We are told that the unknown number, n, is divided by 11; this gives us n/11.

Since the quotient is 0.5, this gives us the equation n/11 = 0.5.

To solve this, multiply both sides by 11:

n/11*11 = 0.5(11)

n = 5.5
