Answer:

<em>Thus, the original price of the pair of shoes was $100.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Percentages</u>

After a 60% discount, the sale price is now valued at 100-60=40% of its original price.

If the sale price is $40, then the original price is calculated as

$40 / 40 * 100 = $100

Thus, the original price of the pair of shoes was $100.

Verify applying 60% discount:

$100 - 60*$100/100 = $40

Answer:

6. it is a square because all of the outer sides are equal

3. perpendicular because the slopes are reciprocals of eachother and the lines would form 90 degree angles

(6-3(cube root of 6)/(cube root of 9)

MatroZZZ [7]

For this case we must simplify the following expression:

$\frac {6-3 \sqrt [3] {6}} {\sqrt [3] {9}}$

Multiplying the numerator and denominator by $(\sqrt [3] {9}) ^ 2$

$\frac {6-3 \sqrt [3] {6}} {\sqrt [3] {9}} * \frac {(\sqrt [3] {9}) ^ 2} {(\sqrt [3] { 9}) ^ 2} =$

We rewrite:

$\frac {\frac {6-3 \sqrt [3] {6}} * (\sqrt [3] {9}) ^ 2} {\sqrt [3] {9} * (\sqrt [3] {9 }) ^ 2} =$

By properties of powers we have that:

$a ^ m * a ^ n = a ^ {m + n}\\\frac {(6-3 \sqrt [3] {6}) * (\sqrt [3] {9}) ^ 2} {(\sqrt [3] {9}) ^ 3} =\\\frac {(6-3 \sqrt [3] {6}) * (\sqrt [3] {9}) ^ 2} {9} =$

We rewrite, moving the exponent within the radical:

$\frac {(6-3 \sqrt [3] {6}) * \sqrt [3] {9 ^ 2}} {9} =\\\frac {(6-3 \sqrt [3] {6}) * \sqrt [3] {81}} {9} =$

We can rewrite $3 * 3 ^ 3 = 81$

$\frac {(6-3 \sqrt [3] {6}) * \sqrt [3] {3 * 3 ^ 3}} {9} =$

We simplify:

$\frac {(6-3 \sqrt [3] {6}) * 3 \sqrt [3] {3}} {9} =$

We apply distributive property:

$\frac {18 \sqrt [3] {3} -9 \sqrt [3] {18}} {9} =$

Simplifying we finally have:

$2 \sqrt [3] {3} - \sqrt [3] {18}$

Answer:

$2 \sqrt [3] {3} - \sqrt [3] {18}$
