Anything that is inside the perenthasis are just like a regular math problem, so your answer should be:
C. 5
Answer:
a) What is the amount off the original price?
= $8.4
b) What is the new price for the pair of shoes?
= $33.6
Step-by-step explanation:
a) What is the amount off the original price?
We are told that:
The sale price is 20% off the original price.
Original price = $42
Hence:
$42 × 20%
$42 × 20/100
= $8.4
b) What is the new price for the pair of shoes?
The new price =
0riginal price - Amount off the original price
= $42 - $8.4
= $33.6
The original price = $33.6
Can I get brainleist of correct
Answer: True.
The ancient Greeks could bisect an angle using only a compass and straightedge.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ancient Greek mathematician <em>Euclid</em> who is known as inventor of geometry.
The Greeks could not do arithmetic. They had only whole numbers. They do not have zero and negative numbers.
Thus, Euclid and the another Greeks had the problem of finding the position of an angle bisector.
This lead to the constructions using compass and straightedge. Therefore, the straightedge has no markings. It is definitely not a graduated-rule.
As a substitute for using arithmetic, Euclid and the Greeks learnt to solve the problems graphically by drawing shapes .
To find the percent of anything, you divide what you have from the total (or the smaller number over the bigger number). In this case, you will do 14/26.
14/26=0.53846
I'm going to round to the hundredths: 0.54
Move the decimal place two times to the right: 54
The percent change from 14 inches to 26 inches is 54%
