<h3>Answer:  $225</h3>

=============================================

Explanation:

x = original price

If she saves 20%, then she still pays the remaining 80% which then converts to the decimal form 0.80

The expression 0.80x represents the new price, or sale price, of the dress. We're told this price is $180

Equate the two expressions and solve for x

0.80x = 180

x = 180/0.80

x = 225

The original price is $225

------------------------

Checking the answer:

20% of 225 = 0.20*225 = 45

She saves $45

225 - 45 = 180

This confirms the answer.

Which statement is generally true about retirement?
nexus9112 [7]

The general statement that is true about retirement is <em>B. your </em><em>income </em><em>will decrease, while your </em><em>expenses </em><em>will increase.</em>

Retirement is the leaving of one's of occupation. This means you cease to be involved in active service in a job or occupation especially when one is considered old and of retirement age.

During retirement, retirement benefits and pension are usually made available to retirees. However, one's income will come to a decline which makes most people scared of retirement. Keeping up with the standard of living they are used to becomes difficult as income to sustain such may not be available.

Therefore, the general statement that is true about retirement is <em>B. your </em><em>income </em><em>will decrease, while your </em><em>expenses </em><em>will increase.</em>

bill is replacing his 15ft long by 12 ft wide deck. his new deck will add 5 feet to the length and 4 feet to the width. if a dra
Ira Lisetskai [31]

The dimensions i.e. length and width of the deck in the drawing is 8 and 6.4 inches respectively.

Given that the length of the previous deck = 15 feet

The width of the previous deck = 12 feet

Since the new deck will add 5 feet to the length and 4 feet to the width,

The length of the new deck = 15 + 5 = 20 feet

The width of the new deck = 12 + 4 = 16 feet

Also given that a drawing of the new deck uses a scale of 1 inch = 2.5 feet.

So, The length of the deck in the drawing = 20/2.5 inches = 8 inches

The width of the deck in the drawing = 16/2.5 inches = 6.4 inches

Therefore, the dimensions i.e. length and width of the deck in the drawing is 8 and 6.4 inches respectively.
