Answer:

i`m not very good at maths but i`m pretty sure this is right:

if the original price was reduced by 20%, then $336 is 80%

divide 336 by 8 to get a unit rate of money per 10%

10% = $42

multiply this by 10 to get 100%, or the original price

the original price is $420

Find the missing value in each figure below. What does “y” equal?
finlep [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The perpendicular is equal to 6. That's because the left triangle's missing angle is 180 - 45 -90 = 45

The angle in the right triangle is given as 52.

The cos(52) = adjacent side (which we just found to be 6) / y

Multiply both sides by y

y cos(52) = 6

cos(52) = 0.6157

Divide by sides by cos(52)

y = 6 / cos(52)

y = 6 / 0.6157

y = 9.76

If
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Rationalize the denominator of b. So, multiply the numerator and denominator by \sqrt{x}

b = \frac{(1-2\sqrt{x}) *\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{x}*\sqrt{x}  }=\frac{1*\sqrt{x} -2\sqrt{x} *\sqrt{x} }{\sqrt{x} *\sqrt{x} }\\\\=\frac{\sqrt{x} -2x}{x}\\

Now, find a +b

a +b = \frac{2x+\sqrt{x} }{x}+\frac{\sqrt{x} -2x}{x}\\\\=\frac{2x+\sqrt{x} +\sqrt{x} -2x}{x}

Combine like terms

= \frac{2x-2x+\sqrt{x} +\sqrt{x} }{x}\\\\=\frac{2\sqrt{x} }{x}

Now find (a + b)²

(a +b)² = (\frac{2\sqrt{x} }{x})^{2}

          = \frac{2^{2}*(\sqrt{x} )^{2}}{x^{2}}\\\\= \frac{4* x}{x^{2}}\\\\= \frac{4}{x}

Hint: \sqrt{x} *\sqrt{x}  =\sqrt{x*x}=x

If you put a $160 coat on layaway and make a 25% deposit, what is the balance owed?
Anna71 [15]
25% of $160

= (25/100) * 160

= 0.25 * 160

= 40

$40 paid.

Balance owed = $160 - $40 = $120

Balance owed = $120

4 x 0.90 = £3.60
£13.50 - £3.60 = £9.90
0.9 + 0.75 = £1.65
£9.90/£1.65 = 6
They bought 6 ice cream cones
