The price of the tablet before the discount is $ 2667
<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>
Given that Marina paid $2,000 for a tablet PC after receiving a 25 percent discount
To find: The price of the tablet before the discount
Let "a" be the price of the tablet before the discount or original price
After receiving a 25 percent discount means 25 percent discount in original price
Discount = 25 % of original price
Discount = 25 % of "a"
Now we can say that,
<em>price of tablet after discount = price of the tablet before the discount - discount</em>
2000 = a - 0.25a
0.75a = 2000
a = 2666.67 ≈ 2667
Thus the price of the tablet before the discount is $ 2667
The mean, median, and mode are equal to 1. So among the choices, the first one is correct - mean = mode
Mean - an <em>average </em>of the given set of number; to find this, add the numbers and divide it by 11 (the number of given data)
= (-1 + -1 + 0 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 3) / 11
= 1
Median - the <em>middle or center</em> of the given set; to find this, arrange the numbers in numerical order, then get the center or middle number as the median
= <span>-1, -1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3
= [</span><span>-1, -1, 0, 1, 1,] <u>1</u>, [1, 2, 2, 2, 3]
Mode - is the value that occurs most of the time in the given set; so obviously <em>number 1 occurred four times</em> so 1 is our mode

All of these choices would result in a 29-ft perimeter for the quilt.
But choice-b is significantly closer to the golden ratio than the others are.
Golden Ratio = (1/2) (1 + √5) = 1.618... (rounded)
Choice a). 1.665
Choice b). 1.617 the answer is "B"
Choice c). 1.526
Choice d). 1.5709
57.5 is the answer. Because think of 200 as 100% and 15 out of a hundered is ______. Right.
