Answer:
$27
Step-by-step explanation:
If the table was marked up 125%, you can find the retail price of it this way:
20 + 1.25(20) = retail price
$45 = retail price.
To find 40% off of that, use
$45 - .4($45) = sale price
$27 = sale price (aka discount price)
Yes- though we may say "When will we ever use this?" ever so often in class, the reality is that we use mathematics in everyday life. From simple addition, to factoring, to finding the angles of various components to a building, math is always being used in real life.
1. 5x + 6 = 2 + 3x
-3x. - 3x
-------------------------
2x + 6 = 2
- 6. - 6
-------------------------
2x = -4
---- -----
2. 2
x = -2
2. 2(6 -2y) = -1(4y-9)
12 -4y = -4y + 9
+4y. +4y
----------------------------
.12 /=\ 9
No solution
3. 2z-6 = 2(z+2) + 10
2z -6 = 2z + 4 + 10
2z -6 = 2z +14
-2z. -2z
-6 /=\ 14
No solution.
