Diane bought new headphones originally listed for $70.99. They are 25% off. Which equation can be used to find the amount Diane

will save?
Mathematics

Assoli18 [71]3 years ago

Step-by-step explanation:

100% = $70.99

there is a discount of 25%.

that means 75% (100 - 25) of the original price remains.

the equation to get any x% amount of a 100% total is simply

x% amount = 100% total amount × x/100

25% = 70.99 × 25/100 = $17.75

7(x+2)=2x-1 solve for the variable
Len [333]

Answer:

x = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

7(x + 2) = 2x - 1 ← distribute parenthesis on left side

7x + 14 = 2x - 1 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

5x + 14 = - 1 ( subtract 14 from both sides )

5x = - 15 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = - 3

If XY=18, YZ=14, and XZ=20, find the radius of each circle.
Pachacha [2.7K]
Let`s assume that points M, N and P are the touching points of those 3 circles:Then:Y M + M Z = 14,Z N + N X = 20X P + P Y = 18And also: M Z = ZN, Y M = P Y and N X = X P.Now we have a system of 3 equations ( Y M, M Z and X P  are the radii of each circle ):Y M + M Z = 14M Z + X P = 20X P + Y M = 18 Y M - M Z = - 14+X P  + Y M = 18 X P - M Z  = 4Y M - M Z = - 14+M Z + X P = 20 X P - Y M = 6  /* ( - 1 )X P  - M Z = 4 X P + Y M = - 6  X P - M Z = 4    Y M - M Z = - 2           Y M + M Z = 14            2 Y M = 12  =>  Y M = 6M Z - 6 = 2  =>   M Z = 8X P + 6 = 18 
 X P = 12
Radii of the circles are: 12, 8 and 6.

NEED HELP ASAP! WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!
snow_tiger [21]
The answer would be 30 since for 180 pounds and 60 feet you would need to divide 180 by 60 to get the unit rate for the pressure and then multiply by 10 which would get you 30. Correct me if I’m wrong. Hope it helps :)

Illinois license plates used to consist of either three letters followed by three digits or two letters followed by four digits.
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

The probability that a randomly chosen plate contains the number 2222 is 0.000028 approximately.

The probability that a randomly chosen plate contains the sub-string HI is 0.002548  approximately.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Illinois license plates used to consist of either three letters followed by three digits or two letters followed by four digits.

Part (A)

Let A is the ways in which plates consist of three letters followed by three digits and B is the ways in which two letters followed by four digits.

Here repetition is allow. The number of alphabets are 26 and the number of distinct digits are 10.

The numbers of ways in which three letters followed by three digits can be chosen is: 26\times 26\times 26 \times 10 \times 10 \times10

26^3\times 10^3=17576000

The numbers of ways in which two letters followed by four digits can be chosen is: 26\times 26\times 10 \times 10 \times 10 \times10

26^2\times 10^4=6760000

Hence, the total number of ways are 17576000 + 6760000 = 24336000

Randomly chosen plate contains the number 2222 that means the first two letter can be any alphabets but the rest of the digit should be 2222.

Thus, the total number of ways that a randomly chosen plate contains the number 2222 number are: 26^2=676

The probability that a randomly chosen plate contains the number 2222 is:

\frac{676}{24336000} \approx 0.000028

Part (B)

The number of ways in which chosen plate contains the sub-string HI:

If three letters followed by three digits plate contains the sub-string HI, then the number of possible ways are:

26\times 1\times10^3+1\times 26\times10^3

If two letters followed by four digits plate contains the sub-string HI, then the number of possible ways are:

1\times 10^4

Thus, the total number of ways that a randomly chosen plate contains the sub-string HI are:

1\times 10^4+26\times 1\times10^3+1\times 26\times10^3

62000

From part (A) we know that the total number of ways to chose a number plate is 24336000.

The probability that a randomly chosen plate contains the sub-string HI is:

\frac{62000}{24336000} \approx 0.002548

HELP PLEASE!! THANK YOU!
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer: choice B, 40.5 degrees

The triangle is isosceles based on the fact that AC = BC (the tick marks are the same). The angles opposite the congruent sides are also congruent

angle A = angle B = x for some unknown number x

The three angles A,B,C add to 180, so,

A+B+C = 180

x+x+99 = 180

2x+99 = 180

2x = 180-99

2x = 81

x = 81/2

x = 40.5

So angle A and angle B are both 40.5 degrees

Check:

A+B+C = 180

40.5+40.5+99 = 180

180 = 180 answer is confirmed

==============================

Edit

The sides with the two tick marks are the same length, so 7x-4 is the same as length as 31

7x-4 = 31

7x = 31+4

7x = 35

x = 35/7

x = 5

Answer is choice B) 5
