Answer:

6.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

1000 in a box and he orders 5 boxes.

1000x5= 5000

So he orders 5000 paper clips

1 box is £15.40 and he order 5, so £15.40x5= £77

£77 is between £55 and £79.99 so he will get 6.5% discount.

After the discount he will pay £71.99

Simplify 6 - 3(4 - 3x) -3x - 6 9x + 18 9x - 6

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

6 (19 x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

6 - 3 (4 - 3 x) - 3 x - 6×9 x + 18×9 x - 6

-6×9 = -54:

6 - 3 (4 - 3 x) - 3 x + -54 x + 18×9 x - 6

18×9 = 162:

6 - 3 (4 - 3 x) - 3 x - 54 x + 162 x - 6

Grouping like terms, 6 - 3 (4 - 3 x) - 3 x - 54 x + 162 x - 6 = (-3 x - 54 x + 162 x) - 3 (4 - 3 x) + (6 - 6):

(-3 x - 54 x + 162 x) - 3 (4 - 3 x) + (6 - 6)

-3 x - 54 x + 162 x = 105 x:

105 x - 3 (4 - 3 x) + (6 - 6)

6 - 6 = 0:

105 x - 3 (4 - 3 x)

-3 (4 - 3 x) = 9 x - 12:

9 x - 12 + 105 x

Grouping like terms, 105 x + 9 x - 12 = (105 x + 9 x) - 12:

(105 x + 9 x) - 12

105 x + 9 x = 114 x:

114 x - 12

Factor 6 out of 114 x - 12:

Answer: 6 (19 x - 2)

I need help I don’t know how that’s not right.

Leviafan [203]

Answer: v=-81.92

Step-by-step explanation:

$\displaystyle\\7+\frac{v}{8} =-3.24\\\\7+\frac{v}{8}-7 =-3.24-7\\\\\frac{v}{8} =-10.24\\\\\frac{v}{8} =-10.24$

Multiply both parts of the equation by 8:

$\displaystyle\\(\frac{v}{8})(8)=(-10.24)(8) \\\\v=-81.92$

On Naomi's cell phone plan, the amount she pays each month for international text messages is proportional to the number of inte

Lostsunrise [7]

A) The constant of proportionality in this proportional relationship is $k = \frac{y}{x}$

B) The equation to represent this proportional relationship is y = 0.2x

<h3>Solution:</h3>

Given that,

The amount Naomi pays each month for international text messages is proportional to the number of international texts she sends that month

Therefore,

This is a direct variation proportion

$\text{ amount Naomi pays each month } \propto \text{ number of international texts she sends that month}$

Let "y" be the amount that Naomi pays each month

Let "x" be the number of international texts she sends that month

Therefore,

$y \propto x$

y = kx -------- eqn 1

Where, "k" is the constant of proportionality

Thus the constant of proportionality in this proportional relationship is:

$k = \frac{y}{x}$

Last month, she paid $3.20 for 16 international texts

Therefore,

y = 3.20

x = 16

Thus from eqn 1,

$3.20 = k \times 16\\\\k = \frac{3.20}{16}\\\\k = 0.2$

Substitute k = 0.2 in eqn 1

y = 0.2x

The equation would then be y = 0.2x
