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

Which integer is closest to 0 on the number line?
IrinaVladis [17]

An integer is close to zero if it is "small".

By small, we mean that it is small in absolute value. In fact, for any given distance d, there are two integers that are d units away from zero: d and -d.

So, for example, -6 is close to zero than 8, because -6 is six units away from zero, while 8 is eight units away from zero.

So, the answer is B, -8, because it is 8 units away from zero. The other options A, C and D are, respectively, 12, 10 and 14 units away from zero.

What is the mean absolute deviation for the set of data below?<br><br> 2, 8, 10, 16
Evgesh-ka [11]

Solution: We are given below data:

2, 8, 10, 16

Now to find the mean deviation, we use the below formula:

MD= \frac{\sum|X-\bar{X}|}{N}

Where:

\sum,  represents the summation

X, represents the observation.

\bar{X}, represents the mean

N represents the number of observation.

\bar{X}= \frac{\sum{X}}{N}= \frac{2+8+10+16}{4}=9

\sum |X-\bar{X}| = |2-9| + |8-9| +|10-9| +|16-9|=7+1+1+7=16

Therefore, the mean deviation is:

MD= \frac{16}{4}

        = 4
