Answer:

When light strikes an object, its rays can be either absorbed or reflected. A solid black object absorbs almost all light, while a shiny smooth surface, such as a mirror, reflects almost all light back. When reflected off a flat mirror, light bounces off at an angle equal to the angle it struck the object.

Step-by-step explanation:

Light reflects from a smooth surface at the same angle as it hits the surface. For a smooth surface, reflected light rays travel in the same direction. This is called specular reflection. For a rough surface, reflected light rays scatter in all directions.

) Kora is working on a scrapbooking project. She buys packages of stickers at two different stores.

Rus_ich [418]

The expression that can be used to represent the total price is 3(p - $0.75) + 5(p - $1).

The expression that can be used to determine the total amount spent in store A is:

number of stickers bought x ( price of the item - discount)
number of stickers bought = 5
price of the stickers = p
discount = $1

5(p - $1)

The expression that can be used to determine the total amount spent in store B is:

number of stickers bought x ( price of the item - discount)
number of stickers bought = 3
price of the stickers = p
discount = $0.75

3(p - $0.75)

Total price = 3(p - $0.75) + 5(p - $1)
