Z wants to buy five shirts worth 34 dollars each and three baseball caps worth 31

Mathematics
1 answer:
ella [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

$199.50

Step-by-step explanation:

10% discount of $34 = 10/100*34 = $3.40

so, a single shirt costs $34-$3.40 = $30.60

half off = 50% discount of $31 = 50/100*31 = $15.50

so, a single cap costs $31-$15.50 = $15.50

so, 5 shirts and 3 caps cost now

5*$30.60 + 3*$15.50 = $153 + $46.50 = $199.50

but careful - can this be a trick question ?

the phrasing of the problem description can also suggest that the discounts are only listed to confuse us and are already included in the mentioned prices ("worth" $34 - what does that mean ? because including the discounts they are currently "worth" their prices).

then it would just plainly be

5*$34 + 3*$31 = $170 + $93 = $263

4. The sum of iwo numbers is 36. Twice the first
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

  14 and 22

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the first number, then 36-x is the second. We are told that ...

  2x -(36-x) = 6 . . . . twice the first less the second is 6

  3x = 42 . . . . . . . . . add 36

  x = 14

  (36 -x) = 22

The numbers are 14 and 22.

Find the equation of the straight line passing through the point (3, 3) which is perpendicular to the line y=-x-4​
Elena L [17]
Answer: y=x
The slope of the perpendicular line is the opposite reciprocal. So you do -(-1/1) which equals 1. So now we have y=x+b. Plug (3,3) into this and you get 3=3+b. So b=0 and the equation is y=x
