Answer:

15% off

Step-by-step explanation:

We know we paid $25.50 of the original $30. We can divide these two numbers $\frac{25.5}{30}=0.85$ . This is means we paid 85% of the original price. The discount percentage is the remaining percentage from 85 to 100 which is 15. The pants were 15% off.

umka21 [38]

Answer:

P(at least 1 large) = 0.648

P(at least 1 large) = 64.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 7 small shirts, 8 medium shirts and 4 large shirts

Total number of shirts = 7 + 8 + 4 = 19 shirts

The probability that at least one of the first four shirts he checks is a large is given by

P(at least 1 large) = 1 - P(no large)

So first we need to find the probability that the none of the first four shirts he checks are large.

For the first check, there are 15 small and medium shirts and total 19 shirts so,

15/19

For the second check, there are 14 small and medium shirts and total 18 shirts left so,

14/18

For the third check, there are 13 small and medium shirts and total 17 shirts left so,

13/17

For the forth check, there are 12 small and medium shirts and total 16 shirts left so,

12/16

the probability of not finding the large shirt is,

P(no large) = 15/19*14/18*13/17*12/16

P(no large) = 0.352

Therefore, the probability of finding at least one large shirt is,

P(at least 1 large) = 1 - P(no large)

P(at least 1 large) = 1 - 0.352

P(at least 1 large) = 0.648

P(at least 1 large) = 64.8%

Marcus would need to save for 24 weeks in order to purchase a new electronic keyboard.

<h3>Define the meaning of the equation?</h3>

A mathematical assertion in which you use mathematical symbols to demonstrate that two sums are equal.

As per specified data-

Marcus wishes to save $378 so that he can purchase a new electronic keyboard.
Every week, he saves $15.75 from his paycheck.

Let 'x' be the number of weeks required to complete the amount.

The equation becomes.

378 = 15.75x

For the number of week required.

x = 378/15.75

x = 24

Thus, Marcus would need to save for 24 weeks in order to purchase a new electronic keyboard.

A tree grows vertically on a hillside. The hill is at a 16° angle to the horizontal. The tree casts an 18-meter shadow up the hi

elixir [45]

The height of the tree is the sum of the part below the line parallel to the horizontal and the part above the line parallel to the horizontal.

Height of the part below the line parallel to the horizontal = 18 sin16° = 4.96 meters
Horizontal distance of the tip of the of the shadow from the tree = 18 cos16° = 17.30 meters
Height of the part above the line parallel to the horizontal = 17.3 tan68° = 42.83 meters

Height of the tree = 4.96 + 42.83 = 47.79 meters

baherus [9]

Answer:

i. x^2 – 1

ii. x^3 – 1

iii. x^4 - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Products are obtained by multipliyng each left term by each rigth term as follows:

i. (x- 1)(x+ 1) = (x^2 – x + x - 1) = x^2 – 1 (equal terms with opposite sign substracts and the result is 0)

ii. (x- 1)(x^2 + x + 1) = (x^3 – x^2 + x^2 – x + x – 1) = x^3 – 1

iii. (x- 1)(x³ + x² + x + 1) = (x^4 – x^3 + x^3 – x^2 + x^2 – x + x – 1) = x^4 - 1
