Answer:

You end up paying 22% of the original price.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement indicates that a store has clearance items that have been marked down by 60% and this means that you have to pay 40% of the price as:

100%-60%=40%

Now, the statement says that the are advertising an additional 45% off clearance items which means that you will have a 45% discount on the 40% of the original price. So, you have to calculate 45% of 40 and subtract that from 40 to find the percentage that you will end up paying:

40*45%=18

40-18=22

According to this, the answer is that you end up paying 22% of the original price.

Bella and Heather put some money in their money boxes every week. The amount of money (y) in dollars, in their money boxes after
evablogger [386]

The question is incomplete:

Bella and Heather put some money into their money boxes every week. The amount of money (y), in dollars, in their money boxes after a certain amount of time (x), in weeks, is shown by the equations below: Bella: y = 25x + 60 Heather: y = 30x + 10 After how many weeks will Bella and Heather have the same amount of money in their money boxes, and what is that amount?

 10 weeks, $10  

10 weeks, $310  

9 weeks, $310  

310 weeks, $10

Answer:

10 weeks, $310  

Step-by-step explanation:

As the statement indicates, you have the following equations:

y=25x+60

y=30x+10

where:

y= the amount of money

x= the amount of time in weeks

You can equalize the expressions and isolate x to find the number of weeks after which Bella and Heather will have the same amount of money:

25x+60=30x+10

60-10=30x-25x

50=5x

x=50/5= 10

After this, you can replace the value of x in any of the equations to find the amount of money that they will have after 10 weeks:

-y=25(10)+60=310

-y=30(10)+10= 310

According to this, the answer is 10 weeks, $310.

The can of wood stain is twice as wide but half as tall as the can of paint. What is true about the areas of their labels?
MAXImum [283]
In this case the areas would be exactly the same. To prove this, think of a can of stain as 4 inches wide by 6 inches tall/long. If the can of paint is 8 inches wide and 3 inches tall/ long, both areas would be 24 inches squared. By cutting one dimension in half and doubling the other dimension, you do not change the overall area.
