Actual price of the dress = 72

Selling price = 45

72 - 45 = $ 27

Percentage of decrease =

$\frac{27}{72} \times 100 \\$

.... Hope this will help.....

Is (1, 3) a solution to the system of equations listed below? (1 point) y= 6x -3 y = x - 2

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

The solution for given system of equation is: $x=\frac{1}{5}\:and\:y=\frac{-9}{5}$ and ordered pair is: $\mathbf{(\frac{1}{5},\frac{-9}{5})}$

So, (1,3) is not solution to the given system of equations.

Step-by-step explanation:

we can solve the system of equations to find the value of x and y and then verify if (1,3) is a solution or not.

The system of equation given is:

$y=6x-3\\y=x-2$

Solving:

Let:

$y=6x-3--eq(1)\\y=x-2--eq(2)$

Put value of y from equation 2 into equation 1

$y=6x-3\\Put\:y=x-2\\x-2=6x-3\\x-6x=-3+2\\-5x=-1\\x=\frac{-1}{-5}\\x=\frac{1}{5}$

Now, put value of x in equation 2 to find value of y

$y=x-2\\Put\:x=\frac{1}{5} \\y=\frac{1}{5} -2\\y=\frac{1-2*5}{5} \\y=\frac{1-10}{5}\\ y=\frac{-9}{5}$

So, the solution for given system of equation is: $x=\frac{1}{5}\:and\:y=\frac{-9}{5}$ and ordered pair is: $\mathbf{(\frac{1}{5},\frac{-9}{5})}$

So, (1,3) is not solution to the given system of equations.

How many triangles can be made from the following three lengths: 3.1 centimeters, 9.8 centimeters, and 5.2 centimeters?

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

none

Step-by-step explanation:

We have three sides

Adding the two smallest sides together must be bigger than the third side

3.1+5.2 > 9.8

8.3> 9.8

This is false, so we cannot make a triangle
