1)The price of a pair of boot was reduced from $80 to $60. By what percentage

Mathematics
1 answer:
Elan Coil [88]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

1) 25%

2) $17.54

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The boots were reduced from $80 to $60, therefore the total amount they were reduced by in terms of money is $20. To find out what percentage $20 is of $80, you divide.

20/80 = 0.25

0.25 = 25 % (to change a decimal to a percentage, you multiply by 100)

2) 20% = 0.20 (to change a percentage to a decimal, you divide by 100)

To find 20% of $87.70, multiply 0.20 by 87.70.

87.70 x 0.20 = 17.54

What are “like terms”? Why can we only add like terms?
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

Like terms are terms whose variables are the same.

We can only add them because if they does not have the same variable you do not actually know if the variables are equivalent and you will get the wrong answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ex: 4z,7z,108z,45z

Ex: 4w-2h+7a-2w

You can not add 4w and 7a because you do not know what the variables equal so you do not know the true number so add or subtract by.

Please help, I will give brainliest, I am struggling badly.
Alja [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice they both have the same slope of 3x so they are parallel, but different y intercepts. This means the lines never intersect and thus there are no solutions to the system of equations.

What is the equation of the axis of symmetry of the graph of y + 3x – 6 = –3(x – 2)2 + 4?
never [62]
Axis of symmetry = -b/2a
y + 3x - 6 = -3(x-2)² + 4
y + 3x - 6 = -3 ( x²-4x+4) + 4
y + 3x - 6 = -3x² + 12x -12 + 4
y + 3x - 6 = -3x² + 12x -8
y = -3x² + 12x - 3x -8 + 6
y = -3x² + 9x -2
(a=-3, b=9, c=-2)
Axis of symmetry = -b/2a =  -9/2(-3) = -9 / -6 = -3 / -2 = 3/2
Hence, option A) x=3/2 is the correct answer.
