Answer:

$104.64

Step-by-step explanation:

Because coupons come before tax, we have to take <em>away</em> 20%, then <em>add</em> 9%

Step 1 : Find 20%

In order to find the percent of anything, all you have to do is multiply the percent (as a decimal) by your price

In this case, it's :  120 × 0.20

Using this expression, we find that 20% of $120 = $24

Step 2 : take <em>away </em>20%

Coupons take away money from a full price, so we will take away $24 from $120, leaving us with $96

Step 3 : Find 9%

Now we multiply 0.09 (9%) by our <em>new</em> price (96)

96 × 0.09 = $8.64

Step 4 : Add 9%

Lastly, we use our coupon-added price (96) and add our tax (8.64)

96 + 8.64 = $104.64

If 20 machines produce 1,240 printers in a day,
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

12 machines

Step-by-step explanation:

The production rate per machine is 1240/20 = 62

For 1,984 printers it would take 32 machines (1984/62 = 32)

32 needed minus the 20 they already have means they need 12 more machines.

Solve for these letters<br> X<br> Y<br> Z
tester [92]
Z = 140
X = 40
Y = 40
Explanation:
Z and the angle given (140 degrees) are vertical angles, and are therefore congruent
We know that x and y are vertical angles, so they are also congruent to each other
You know that together, the angles have to add up to 360
140 + 140 + x + y = 360
Another way of putting it:
360-280 = 80
Now, we have to divide by two since we need to find x AND y
80/2 = 40
Therefore, your answers for x and y are 40
To double check, you can add up the angles and see if they equal 360
140 + 140 + 40 + 40
280 + 80 = 360
