17 = 3(4x - 5)
<em><u>Distributive property.</u></em>
17 = 12x - 15
<em><u>Add 15 to both sides.</u></em>
32 = 12x
<em><u>Divide both sides by 12.</u></em>
x = 2.67. (This is your answer.)
Let me know if you have any questions.
The original price was $25.
First, convert the 30% to a real mathematical number. For percents, this is always done by dividing the 30% by 100%, or 30% / 100% = 0.300.
Second, find out what 30% of $25 is. This is the amount of the sale discount. This is always found by mulitplying 0.300 by the item's cost $25, like this:
0.300 x $25 = $ 7.50.
So for this sale, you'll save $ 7.50 on this item.
This means, the cost of the item to you is
<span>$25 - $ 7.50 = $17.50.</span>
If you are working with time or days, you can't put in a negative value because if you are doing an experiment, you can't go back in time to do that experiment to gather data. (Time for the most part considered to be an input value so that's why I used it as an example.)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The first or lower quartile is the median of the lower half of the data: 48
Slope = 4/5 because the formula for slope is rise/run. count the x and y units point one and point two are away from each other.
