Answer:

B)blocks in 5th row=15+(5-1)(-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Number of block in bottom row=15

Each row has 2 fewer blocks than the previous row

We have to find the formula would you use to find the number of blocks in the 5th row.

Number of blocks in  second row=15-2=15+1(-2)

Number of blocks in third row=15-2-2=15+2(-2)

Number of blocks in 4th row=15-2-2-2=15+3(-2)

Number of blocks in 5th row=15-2-2-2-2=15+4(-2)

Therefore, number of block in 5th row

15+(5-1)(-2)

This is required formula to find the number of blocks in the 5th row

Hence, option B is true.

B)blocks in 5th row=15+(5-1)(-2)

a suit is being sold at a 20 % off (discount). The sale price is $ 270. What was the original price ?
Lisa [10]

Answer:

The original price is 337.50

Step-by-step explanation:

If we get 20% off, we still have to pay 100-20 =80%

Let x be the original price

x *80% = 270

.80x = 270

Divide each side by .80

.80x/.80 = 270/.80

x =337.50

The original price is 337.50
