The price of an item has been reduced by 40%. The original price was $66. Find the price of the item now.
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

$39.60

Step-by-step explanation:

We are finding 66 - 40%

66 less 40% = 60% of 66

60% of 66 is the price of the item now.

Convert 60% to decimal form by dividing by 100.

60%/100 = 0.60

Multiply the decimal form by 66

66 X 0.6 = 39.60

Since we are dealing with money, keep 2 decimal places, even if the last digit is 0.

The price of the item now is $39.60.

Please help me with this!<br><br><br> show that {1,2} ⊆ {x|x^4 - x^3 - x^2 - 5x + 6 = 0}
Llana [10]

The set \{x\mid x^4-x^3-x^2-6x+6=0\} is the set of all values of x that are solutions to the given equation. So all you need to do is check whether x=1 and x=2 satisfy the equation.

x=1\implies 1^4-1^3-1^2-5+6=0

x=2\implies2^4-2^3-2^2-10+6=0

The equation holds, so both 1 and 2 are solutions, and hence \{1,2\} is a subset of the solutions.
