Answer: 40.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : The sweater department ran a sale last week and sold 95% of the sweaters that were on sale.
95% can be written as 0.95 [ by dividing 100 ]
Also, the number of sweaters sold = 38
Let x be the number of sweaters were on sale.
Then , we have the following equation :_
Hence, 40 sweaters were on sale.
A point is an exact location.
It has no length, width, or height.
It has no area or volume.
It has no mass, shape, or other physical properties.
As a model ...
-- you could use the period at the end of a sentence printed on paper.
It looks like this ==> ·
-- You could use the point of a very sharp pencil.
-- You could use the tiny dot that the point of
a very sharp pencil makes on paper.
-- You could use the point of a pin.
-- You could use the tiny hole that the point of
a pin makes in a sheet of paper.
These are all bigger than a real point. They all have a little bit of size,
length, width, height, and you can see them. But they get the idea across.
(They 'make the point'.)
The answer would be 54. Because you start with 2.
2x3 = 6
6x3 = 18
18x3 = 54
Each month it triples so you continue
to add 3 to each result.
