Answer:

Jeremy find the cost of the sneakers by solving for the values of the 10% in dollars and subtracting the dollar amount from the cost of the sneaker

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

cost of sneakers= $60

Required

the cost of the sneaker after the two discounts

Actually, the two percents given are the discount of the sale.

the first discount is

15%= 15/100*60

=0.15*60

=$9

The second is 10% coupon

10/100*60

=0.1*60

=$6

The total discounts = 9+6= $15

The cost of the sneakers= 60-15= $45

Jeremy find the cost of the sneakers by solving for the values of the 10% in dollars and subtracting the dollar amount from the cost of the sneaker

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

The y intercept is (0,13)

The equation of the line is y = -2x+13

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form of a line is

y = mx+b  where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = -2x+b

Substituting the point

3 = -2(5) +b

3 = -10 +b

Add 10 to each side

13 =b

The y intercept is (0,13)

The equation of the line is y = -2x+13

If tatianna works 3hrs a day on school days and make $123.75 a week what is her hourly rate?​
madreJ [45]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

Her hourly rate is $8.25

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

Tatianna works 3 hours a day on school days and makes a total of $123.75 in a week

<u>We know that:</u>

There are 5 school days in a week

<u>We are given that:</u>

She works for 3 hours a day each of those days

<u>Therefore:</u>

Total number of hours worked = hours worked daily * number of days

Total number of hours worked = 3 * 5 = 15 hours in a week

<u>The equation used to calculate Tatianna's earnings is:</u>

Amount she makes in a week = Total number of hours worked * hourly rate

<u>Now, we substitute with the givens to get the hourly rate as follows:</u>

Amount she makes in a week = Total number of hours worked * hourly rate

123.75 = 15 * hourly rate

Hourly rate = $8.25
