Samuel pays $20 for a shirt that is on sale. If he saved $5, what is the percent of the discount?

1 answer:

Hi Kyliebreland!
So, If he saved $5 then we do $20 divided by $5 which gives 4 so now we split 100% into 4 pieces which gives us 25%.
Hope this helps!

The expressions are simplified to 2x and $\frac{2}{(x+ 1)(x - 1)}$

<h3>How to simply the expressions</h3>

Given the expression;

$\frac{8x^2 - 4x}{4x - 2}$

Let's factorize the numerator;

$\frac{2x( 4x - 2)}{4x - 2}$

Factor the common terms, we have;

2. $\frac{1}{x-1} - \frac{2}{x} + \frac{1}{x + 1}$

Find the Lowest common multiple

$\frac{x(x+ 1) - 2 (x+ 1)(x - 1) + x(x-1)}{x(x-1)(x+ 1)}$

expand the brackets

$\frac{x^2 + x -2(x^2 -x + x -1) + x^2 -x}{x(x-1)(x+ 1)}$

$\frac{x^2+x - 2x^2 -2 + 2x + 2 + x^2 - x}{x(x+1) (x -1)}$

collect like terms

$\frac{2x}{x(x+ 1) (x-1)}$

Divide common terms

$\frac{2}{(x+ 1)(x - 1)}$

Thus, the expressions are simplified to 2x and $\frac{2}{(x+ 1)(x - 1)}$

An editing company charges its costumers $8.75 to rewrite one page. Each May, the company offers a discount of $1.45 per page to

marin [14]

Normal price for 5 pages: number of pages times the price per page
(5)*($8.75) = $43.75

Discounted rate: $8.75 - $1.45 = $7.30
Discounted price for 5 pages:
(5)*($7.30) = $36.50
