A $40 shirt now selling for $28 is discounted by what percent?

Mathematics
1 answer:

Answer:

30%

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of this as converting a fraction. 28/40 to x/100. You do this because in the situation, 40 is 100 percent of the price. So 28 is <em>x</em> percent of 100.

You multiply 40 by 2.5 to get to 100, so multiply 28 by the same number to get x. 28 * 2.5 = 70.

So 28 is 70 percent of 40. But the question is asking by what percentage it is <em>discounted. </em>If it's now selling for 70%, it has been discounted 30%. So the answer is 30%

kap26 [50]

Answer : There are no more than 10% of homes in the city are not up to the current electric codes but actually we do not have evidence to accept it.

Explanation:

The Type I error occurs when the null hypothesis is true but we reject it.

Given null hypothesis : H_0 : an electrician claims that no more than 10% of homes in the city are not up to the current electric codes.

The Type I error for the given situation is that there are no more than 10% of homes in the city are not up to the current electric codes but actually we do not have evidence to accept it.

Please help! Please explain how to do this, I am so lost.
alexdok [17]
Ok, so we know that RST is equal to 6x+12
And RST is also equal to 78 + 3x-12
so we set them equal to each other

6x + 12 = 3x - 12 + 78
And simplify
3x = 54
x = 18

Finally, we solve for the angle with 18 for x

6(18) + 12
108 + 12
120

Hope this helps
