Answer:

44.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate of discount = (difference in prices / original price) x 100

Difference in price = $1299 - $725 = $574

Original price = $1299

($574 / $1299) x 100 = 44.187837%

the tenth is the first number after the decimal place. To convert to the nearest tenth, look at the number after the tenth (the hundredth). If the number is greater or equal to 5, add 1 to the tenth figure. If this is not the case, add zero

the hundredth figure is 8, which is greater than 5. 1 would be added to the tenth figure.

So it becomes 44.2%

Determine how long it will take an airplane to travel 2000 miles if it flies 200 miles per hour, 400 miles per hour, and 600 mil
AveGali [126]

I will use 'hr' to mean hour and 'hrs' to mean hours.

<u>The airplane flies:</u>

200 miles per hr

400 miles per hr

600 miles per hr

Average speed = Total distance ÷ total time

= (200 + 400 + 600)miles ÷ 3hrs = 400miles/hr

Time = Distance ÷ Average speed

= 2000miles ÷ 400miles/hr = 5hrs

1 / f = 1 / a + 1 / b
Sphinxa [80]

That equation can represent the relationship among the image distance,
object distance, and focal length of a lens. 

It could describe the effective resistance of two resistors in parallel, the
effective inductance of two coils in parallel, or the effective capacitance
of two capacitors in series. 

Thanks for sharing it.  Now, did you have a question to ask ?

Answer:

A: Angle J

Step-by-step explanation

If the two triangles are congruent then their corresponding angles are also congruent. This means that angle P is congruent to angle J, angle Q is congruent to angle K and angle R is congruent to angle L. Hope this helps :D
