Divide sale price by (1 - percent of discount):

15.75 / (1- 0.15) =

15.75 / 0.85 = 18.53

Answer = $18.53

A:
Table 1:
f(x) = 8x
X= cups so
ounces =
8* # of cups
Table 2:
f(x) =16x
X= pints so
ounces =
16*# of pints
Table 3:
f(x)= 32x
X= quarts so
ounces=
32*# of quarts
Note: another way instead of f(x)=kx is y=kx
B:
Depending on the slope we can easily find which is the steepest slope by easily comparing the slopes and seeing which is greater.
T1: 8
T2: 16
T3: 32
So, looking at our slopes, table 3 has the greatest slope because it has the greater slope out of the other two.
C:
The phrase, "rate of change" is another way to say the slope. To list again,
T1: 8
T2: 16
T3: 32
The table with the smallest slope would be table 1 since it is less than the other two tables.

I hope that helps, if you need any more assistance or you have any questions, please feel free to ask!!

A bag holds 13 marbles. 6 are blue, 2 are green, and 5 are red. you select a marble from the bag. what is the probability that t

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf B. \ \frac{8}{13} }}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is found by dividing the number of favorable outcomes by the total number of outcomes.

$P= \frac{favorable \ outcomes}{total \ outcomes}$

For this problem, the favorable outcome is selecting a blue or green marble. There are 8 outcomes for this because there are 6 outcomes for blue and 2 fr green.

The total outcomes are all the marbles. Each marble could be an outcome, so there are 13 outcomes (1 for each marble).

$P(blue \ or \ green) = \frac{8}{13}$
