Answer:

  25%

Step-by-step explanation:

A percentage change is calculated using the formula ...

  pct change = ((new value) - (old value))/(old value) × 100%

For your numbers, this is ...

  pct change = (250 -200)/200 × 100% = 50/200×100% = 25%

The selling price was 25% more than the cost price.

Solve the inequality.<br> 4│x + 5│ - 2 ≤ 10
castortr0y [4]

Step-by-step explanation: To solve this absolute value inequality,

our goal is to get the absolute value by itself on one side of the inequality.

So start by adding 2 to both sides and we have 4|x + 5| ≤ 12.

Now divide both sides by 3 and we have |x + 5| ≤ 3.

Now the the absolute value is isolated, we can split this up.

The first inequality will look exactly like the one

we have right now except for the absolute value.

For the second one, we flip the sign and change the 3 to a negative.

So we have x + 5 ≤ 3 or x + 5 ≥ -3.

Solving each inequality from here, we have x ≤ -2 or x ≥ -8.

In the diagram below segment DEF is shown(since all three letters are shown, they are collinear). If DE=3x+2, EF= x+5, and DF= 2
amm1812

The value of x is 4.

By Geometry, we know that line segment DF = DE + EF, which is equivalent to:

DF = 3\cdot x + 2 + x + 5

DF = 4\cdot x + 7 (1)

Now we solve algebraically the resulting expression.

If we know that DF = 23, then we solve the equation for x:

4\cdot x + 7 = 23

4\cdot x = 16

x = 4

The value of x is 4.

Matt is showing his work in simplifying (6.2 − 1.6) − 4.4 + 7.8. Identify any error in his work or reasoning. Step 1: (6.2 − 1.6
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

The correct option is (d)-He wrote commutative instead of associative in Step 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Commutative property: a+b=b+a

Associative property: (a+b)+c=a+(b+c)

Now consider the provided expression.

(6.2 − 1.6) − 4.4 + 7.8

Step 1

(6.2 − 1.6) − 4.4 + 7.8

Step 2 Use Associative property

6.2 + (−1.6 − 4.4) + 7.8

Step 3: Simplify

6.2 − 6 + 7.8

Step 4: Use commutative property

14 − 6

Step 5: Simplify

14 − 6 = 8

Hence, the wrong step is step 2. He wrote commutative instead of associative in Step 2.

Therefore, the correct option is (d)-He wrote commutative instead of associative in Step 2.
