<u>Answer:</u>

100

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Given :

Terms ( n ) = 100

First term ( a ) = 100

Series = > 100 + 98 + 96 .......

Common difference ( d ) = 98 - 100 = > - 2

We know sum formula:

S_n = ( n / 2 ) ( 2 a + ( n - 1 ) d )

= > S_100 = ( 100 / 2 ) ( 200 + ( 100 - 1 ) - 2 )

= > S_100 = 50 ( 200 - 198 )

= > S_100 = 50 ( 2 )

= > S_100 = 100

Therefore, sum of first 100 terms is 100.

The price of a pair of jeans is $25. If there is a 15% discount, what is the sale price of the jeans?

dusya [7]

Answer:

$29.41

Step-by-step explanation:

You know the discount price is 25 and the original is unknown so call it x. The sale is 15% off and that means that the jeans are 85% of what they used to be since 100-15 is 85. Then you plug it into a formula of 25/x = 85/100 then you cross multiply to get 2500=85x and when you solve for x and round you get $29.41
