Answer:

your discount would be 25

Step-by-step explanation:

start, first subtract 45 from 60 to find the amount of money taken off from the discount:

60-45

=15

Because 15 dollars have been taken off the original price, you can find the percent of discount by setting up this proportion where x represents the percent of discount:

15/60=x/100

Now, cross multiply and solve for x:

1500=60x

x=25

Therefore, your discount would be 25%.

hree vertices of a rectangle are given. Find the coordinates of the fourth vertex. (–2, 4), (4, 0), (2, –3)

V1=(-2,4)=(x1,y1)→x1=-2, y1=4
V2=(4,0)=(x2,y2)→x2=4, y2=0
V3=(2,-3)=(x3,y3)→x3=2, y3=-3
V4=(x4,y4)→x4=?, y4=?

V1-V2
dx=x2-x1=4-(-2)=4+2→dx=6
dy=y2-y1=0-4→dy=-4

V4-V3
dx=x3-x4→6=2-x4
Solving for x4:
6=2-x4→6-2=2-x4-2→4=-x4→(-1)(4=-x4)→-4=x4→x4=-4

dy=y3-y4→-4=-3-y4
Solving for y4:
-4=-3-y4→-4+3=-3-y4+3→-1=-y4→(-1)(-1=-y4)→1=y4→y4=1

V4=(x4, y4)→V4=(-4, 1)

Answer: The coordinates of the fourth vertex are (-4,1)
