It's the same because you're trying to find net price (end price)

You're going to take in both scenarios 100%-15%= 85%

You're always going to be paying only 85% of the price.

What is the value of x in the solution to this system of equations?
liberstina [14]

Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression;

5x+2y=67 ...1

x=3y−7 ....2

Substitute 2 into 1

5(3y-7)+2y = 67

15y - 35 + 2y = 67

17y = 67+35

17y = 102

y = 102/17

y =6

Recall that x = 3y - 7

x = 3(6) - 7

x = 18 - 7

x = 11

Hence the value of x is 11

A box of 25 light bulbs is shipped to a hardware store.when it arrives,four of the bulbs are broken.predict the number of broken
anyanavicka [17]
First you need to divide 125 / 25 which is 5 then you do subtraction 21 x 5 which is 105, then you subtract again 125 - 105 which is 20, 20 light bulbs will be broken. Or you could have just multiplied 5 by 4 which is the amount of light bulbs that were broken which is a lot easier...

Jon ate too many holiday cookies and gained 2.2 kilograms in December. Then he went on a diet and lost 1.5 kilograms in January.
gogolik [260]

Answer:

Jon lost a total of 3 kilograms in these 3 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight that Jon gained in December = 2.2 kilograms

Weight that Jon lost in January = 1.5 kilograms

Weight that Jon lost in February = 3.7 kilograms

Overall Change in his weight = Total Weight he gained - Total weight he Lost

Total weight he gained is 2.2 kilograms as he only gained weight in December. Total weight he lost will be sum of weights he lost in January and February.

So, total weight Jon lost = 1.5 + 3.7 = 5.2 kilograms

Thus,

Total change in Jon's Weight = 2.2 - 5.2 = -3.0 kilograms

This shows that Jon lost a total of 3 kilograms in these 3 months.

Conclusion:

The statement that best describe the total change in his weight is: Jon lost a total of 3 kilograms in these 3 months

Determine the first five iterates of f(x)=1.5x(1-x) for x0=0.8
kherson [118]
<span>f(x) = 1.5 x (1 - x)
f(0.8) = 1.5(0.8)(1 - 0.8) = 0.24
f(0.24) = 1.5(0.24)(1 - 0.24) ~= 0.274
f(0.274) = 1.5(0.274)(1 - 0.274) ~= 0.298
f(0.298) = 1.5(0.298)(1 - 0.298) ~= 0.314
f(0.314) = 1.5(0.314)(1 - 0.314) ~= 0.323

</span>So the answer is D : 0.24, 0.274, 0.298, 0.314, 0.323
