Answer:

C & D

Step-by-step explanation:

You can do these two ways. You can multiply the cost of the the shirt by 15% (.15 as a decimal.) and then subtract that answer from the original price of the shirt to get the sales price of the shirt.

You can also multiply the price of the shirt by 85% (.85 as a decimal) and that will give you the sales price without having to subtract. 15% + 85% = 100%, so 85% represents the sales price of the shirt.

Anyway, since you multiply, you can eliminate choice A & B.

Since the direction in the question says to select all that apply, I would check both C & D.

C is the equation of the first way I talked about- Price - 15% * price

C       p - 0.15p

D is the equation of the second way I talked about. Price times 85%

D            0.85p

skad [1K]
Rida:
5 1/2 :77
5.5 : 77
Divide both sides by 5.5 to get $/hour:
1:14

Elisa:
3 3/4:60
3.75:60
Divide both sides by 3.75 to get $/hour:
1:16

16 is bigger than 14 so Elisa earns more.

Hope this helps :)

What is the perimeter of the figure?​
rewona [7]

Answer:

Oh! We should start with finding the lngths of the "curvy sides". As you can see there are 2 semi circles which we can combine to make one circle with a diameter of 7. The formula for the circumference of the circle is 2πr which is also equal to the diameter x π. SO the circumeference is 7π which is this case equals 22 since they are telling us to use  π as 22/7. I'm not sure about the rest but I hope this helped a little!!
