Answer:

At Irtaza's Deli

Step-by-step explanation:

For this you should find the unit price and whichever is less is where you should go.

<em><u>(1) Irtaza Deli:</u></em>

First I would round the 5.99 to 6 then we'll do 6 divided by 7.

$\frac{6}{7}=.8571428571=.86$

<em><u>(2) Brianna's Food Mart:</u></em>

First I would round the 8.99 to 9 then we'll do 9 divided by 10.

$\frac{9}{10}=.9$

<em><u>Now let's compare:</u></em>

So the first store sells oranges for $.86 and the second store sells them for $.90. I don't know about you but I would go to the first store they would be much more cheaper.

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

1 to 10 = Pointer Finger

1 to 100 = Ring Finger

1 to 1000 = Ring Finger

Step-by-step explanation:

Every time she counts 10 on her fingers starting from 1 it either lands on her Index Finger or Ring Finger in a pattern of starting first on her index finger for 10 then ending up on her Ring Finger for 20 and 30 the going back to her Index finger for 40 and 50 and so on. Using this you can figure out 100 and 1000.

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Q1) Final cost = y*0.85*1.05

Q2) Perimeter = 0.1*x - 16

Q3) One over five ( m - 100)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given three question as follows:

Q1) Jamie purchased a DVD that was on sale for 15% off. The sales tax in her county is 5%. Let y represent the original price of the DVD. Write an expression that can be used to determine the final cost of the DVD.

Solution:

Note: The effect of each percentage on original price is as follows, where y is the original price of the DVD:

Discount of 15 % = Price reduced by 0.15*y

Sales Tax of 5% = Price increased by 0.05*y

- The resulting prices from each percentage is:

Amount left after discount = y - 0.15*y = 0.85*y

Amount after tax = y + 0.05*y = 1.05*y

- The factors of each affect are:

Factor of discount = 0.85

Factor of Tax = 1.05

Hence, The factors are multiplied by the original cost to get the combined effect as follows:

Answer: Final cost = y*0.85*1.05

Q2) Write an expression for the perimeter of the triangle shown below: A triangle is shown with side lengths labeled 0.5*x + 9, 3x, and - 3.4*x - 25.

Solution:

The perimeter of the triangle is the sum of all 3 sides given:

Perimeter = (0.5*x + 9) + (3x) + ( -3.4*x - 25 )

Perimeter = (0.5*x + 3x - 3.4x) + ( 9 - 25 )

Answer: Perimeter = 0.1*x - 16

Q3) Which expression is equivalent to one over five*m − 20?

Solution:

- Re-write expression:

(1 / 5)*m - 20

Take LCM of the denominator:

(m - 100) / 5

Answer: One over five ( m - 100)
