Answer:

The new price is 66% off the original not 75% off

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original price

First take 60 percent off

x - x*60% = new price

x- .60x = .40x

The new price is .40x

Then take 15 % off

(.40x) - (.40x)*15%

.40x - .40x*.15

.40x - .06x

.34x

100 -.34 =.66

The new price is 66% off the original not 75% off

hram777 [196]

Answer:

<h3>13.8</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

if Points X and Z are on a number line and point Y partition line XZ into two parts where XY: YZ = 1:4, this can be expressed as;

XY/YZ = 1/4

cross multiply;

YZ = 4XY

Also, if The coordinate of X is 1.3, and the coordinate of Y is 3.8, then the distance XY will be expressed as XY = 3.8 - 1.3

XY = 2.5

YZ = 4(2.5)

YZ = 10

Since Y is at 3.8 and YZ is 10, then coordinate Z will be YZ + Y

coordinate of Z = 10+3.8

coordinate of Z = 13.8
