Answer: Darren's shirt is £16.75. And with the loyalty discount, his total price would approximately £25.28.

Explanation:

To find the price of his shirt, you subtract the total price with the ties price. 29.75 - 13.00 which would get you 16.75. And then you have to subtract 15% from 29.75. (Original price) Once you're finished, you should get 25.28 (Unless I'm dumb) And if you need to learn how to subtract or add with percentages, you can look for a video on YT. Hope this helped!

Answer:

£21.21

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the total price of the two items before the discount was applied. To do this, multiply the discounted price by 1.15, which is the decimal form of 115%. I added 15% to 100% in order to reverse to discount.

29.75 * 1.15 = 34.21

Now that we know the total price before the discount, we can subtract the value of the tie from the total price to find the price of the shirt:

34.21 - 13 = 21.21

The shirt cost £21.21 before the discount.

Hope this helps :)

I WILL GIVE BRAINLYEST TO RIGHT ANSWER -4w - 4 =8 what is X equal to

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

w = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

-4w - 4 = 8

Combine the constants by adding 4 to both sides.

-4w = 12

Isolate w by dividing by -4.

w = -3

Check your work by plugging w = -3 into the original equation.

-4(-3) - 4 = 8

12 - 4 = 8

8 = 8

Your answer is correct.

How is this solved using trig identities (sum/difference)?

GenaCL600 [577]

FIRST PART
We need to find sin α, cos α, and cos β, tan β
α and β is located on third quadrant, sin α, cos α, and sin β, cos β are negative

Determine ratio of ∠α
Use the help of right triangle figure to find the ratio
tan α = 5/12
side in front of the angle/ side adjacent to the angle = 5/12
Draw the figure, see image attached

Using pythagorean theorem, we find the length of the hypotenuse is 13
sin α = side in front of the angle / hypotenuse
sin α = -12/13

cos α = side adjacent to the angle / hypotenuse
cos α = -5/13

Determine ratio of ∠β
sin β = -1/2
sin β = sin 210° (third quadrant)
β = 210°

$cos \beta = -\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{3}$

$tan \beta= \frac{1}{3} \sqrt{3}$

SECOND PART
Solve the questions
Find sin (α + β)
sin (α + β) = sin α cos β + cos α sin β
$sin( \alpha + \beta )=(- \frac{12}{13} )( -\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{3})+( -\frac{5}{13} )( -\frac{1}{2} )$
$sin( \alpha + \beta )=(\frac{12}{26}\sqrt{3})+( \frac{5}{26} )$
$sin( \alpha + \beta )=(\frac{5+12\sqrt{3}}{26})$

Find cos (α - β)
cos (α - β) = cos α cos β + sin α sin β
$cos( \alpha + \beta )=(- \frac{5}{13} )( -\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{3})+( -\frac{12}{13} )( -\frac{1}{2} )$
$cos( \alpha + \beta )=(\frac{5}{26} \sqrt{3})+( \frac{12}{26} )$
$cos( \alpha + \beta )=(\frac{5\sqrt{3}+12}{26} )$

Find tan (α - β)
$tan( \alpha - \beta )= \frac{ tan \alpha-tan \beta }{1+tan \alpha tan \beta }$
$tan( \alpha - \beta )= \frac{ \frac{5}{12} - \frac{1}{2} \sqrt{3} }{1+(\frac{5}{12}) ( \frac{1}{2} \sqrt{3})}$

Simplify the denominator
$tan( \alpha - \beta )= \frac{ \frac{5}{12} - \frac{1}{2} \sqrt{3} }{1+(\frac{5\sqrt{3}}{24})}$
$tan( \alpha - \beta )= \frac{ \frac{5}{12} - \frac{1}{2} \sqrt{3} }{ \frac{24+5\sqrt{3}}{24} }$

Simplify the numerator
$tan( \alpha - \beta )= \frac{ \frac{5}{12} - \frac{6}{12} \sqrt{3} }{ \frac{24+5\sqrt{3}}{24} }$
$tan( \alpha - \beta )= \frac{ \frac{5-6\sqrt{3}}{12} }{ \frac{24+5\sqrt{3}}{24} }$

Simplify the fraction
$tan( \alpha - \beta )= (\frac{5-6\sqrt{3}}{12} })({ \frac{24}{24+5\sqrt{3}})$
$tan( \alpha - \beta )= \frac{10-12\sqrt{3} }{ 24+5\sqrt{3}}$

At Fireside Bookshop, you buy a book for $30.00. If the sales tax is 9.5%, what is the total price you pay for the book?

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

$32.85

Step-by-step explanation: 9.5% of 30 is 2.85

30 + 2.85 = 32.85
