Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's what's going on: some person buying their furniture sees this sofa and it's $1200. That person sees theres a 1/3 off sale! They're happy and buy their sofa with a 20% off discount they got.

Now we have to find out  if they should use the 20% off discount before or after adding the 1/3 off sale.

The answer is, they're both the same.

Say they add the 1/3 off sale discount and then use their 20% off discount. Find the 1/3 off sale: 1200 divided by 3 (because fractions are division problems) = 400. 20% of 400: 400 x 0.2 = 80. It's not just 80, because it's not an "only pay 20%" discount. 400 - 80 = 320. They'd pay $320 with this method.

This shows that using the 20% discount after the 1/3 off sale the customer spends $320.

Now let's calculate what happens if they use the discount after the 1/3 off sale. 20% of 1200: 1200 x 0.2 = 240. 1200 - 240 = 960. Now adding the 1/3 off sale: 960 divided by 3 = 320. They'd also pay $320 with this method.

If it's a short answer, you could just write something like, "No, both methods end up with the sales associate paying $320."

Hope this helps!

Write the standard form of the equation of a line if the point on the line nearest to the origin is at (6, 8).
Alchen [17]

Answer:

\large\boxed{y=\dfrac{4}{3}x}

Step-by-step explanation:

The line passes through the origin has an equation y = mx

m - slope

The formula of a slope of a line passes through the origin

and a point (x, y):

m=\dfrac{y}{x}

We have the point (6, 8). Substitute:

m=\dfrac{8}{6}=\dfrac{8:2}{6:2}=\dfrac{4}{3}

Finally:

y=\dfrac{4}{3}x

Select the correct answer. What is the range of this data? (3,3, 0, 8, 7, 10, 2, 6, 12, 0}
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

D: 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The range is the difference between the largest value in the date minus the smallest value in the data.

In this set of numbers given, the largest value is 12 and the smallest value is 0

so: 12-0 = 12

The range of this data is 12
