Answer:

less

Step-by-step explanation:

An increase of 20% makes the price 120% of the original price.

A discount of 20% makes the discounted price 80% of the previous price.

Original price: x

20% increase in price: 1.2 * x

20% discount over the raised price: 0.8 * 1.2 * x

Now we multiply the numbers in the last expression and compare the result with x.

0.8 * 1.2 * x = 0.96x

0.96 is less than x, so the customer pays less than the original price.

HELP NOW!!! 20 POINTS AND URGENTLY NEEDED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lunna [17]

So basically here is the answer mate!

2x  +  7y  =  3-------------------------(substitute x's value here, i.e., x = -4y)

2( -4y )  +  7y  =  3

-8y  +  7y  =  3

-1y  =  3

y  =  -3------------------------(  1  )

Since x  =  -4y

             =  -4 (  -3  )  --------------------------( since we found the value of y)

             =  12

Here is the answer for  x  = 12  ,  y  =  -3

Mark my anwer as the brainliest please !  :)

Current and Quick Ratios The Nelson Company has $1,250,000 in current assets and $500,000 in current liabilities. Its initial in
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$1,250,000 in current assets (cr) and $500,000 in current liabilities(cl)

current ratio (cr)=1250000/500000=2.5

Δ note payable ( change in note payable NP)

minimum current=2.2

2.2=(1250000+ΔNP)/(500000+ΔNP)

2.2(500000+ΔNP)=1250000+ΔNP

1100000+2.2ΔNP=1250000+ΔNP

2,2ΔNP-ΔNP=1250000-1100000

1.2ΔNP=150000

ΔNP=150000/1.2=125000

Nelson's short-term debt (notes payable) increase without pushing its current ratio below 2.2=125000

assuming this amount used to increase the inventory

new inventory=335000+125000=360000

current asset= 1250000+125000=1375000

the new ratio=(1375000-360000)/500000+125000

new ratio = 1.624

A student fond the slope of a line that passes through the points (-8,-6) and (2,-3) to be 3/10. what mistake did she make?
goldfiish [28.3K]
Simple ....

we know to find slope is (y1-y2)/(x1-x2)

if we plug in what we know......

(-8,-6),(2,-3)

(-6--3)/(-8-2)

it turns into...

(-6++3)/(-8+-2)

(-3)/(-10)= 3/10

Thus, your answer is that she made no mistake. (C)

Someone please help ASAP will give brainliest
Nimfa-mama [501]

Slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b

"m" is the slope, "b" is the y-intercept (the y value when x = 0)

You need to find "m" and "b".


If you look at the graph, when x = 0, y is 1, so the y-intercept is 1.

y = mx + 1

To find "m", you can use the slope formula and find two points on the graph and plug it in, or you can use this:

slope=\frac{rise}{run}

Rise is the number of units you go up(+) or down(-)

Run is the number of units you go to the right.


If you look at the graph, from each point you go up 1 unit, and to the right 1 unit. So your slope is \frac{1}{1} or 1


y = 1x + 1

y = x + 1
