Answer:

$21.04

Step-by-step explanation:

Steps to take to derive the answer

  1. Determine the price after the price increase of 65%
  2. Determine the price after the 15% off

Price after increase increase (100% + increase in price) x purchase price of the jeans

(100% + 65%) x 15

165% x 15

1.65 x $15 = $24.75

Price after the decrease in price = (100% - percentage decrease in price) x price after the 65% increase in price

(100% - 15%) x $24.75

85% x $24.75

0.85 x $24.75 = $21.04

Convert 10x + 2y = 30 to slope intercept form by solving for y.
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

y = -5x + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

10x + 2y = 30

Subtract 10x from both sides.

2y = -10x + 30

Divide both sides by 2.

y = -5x + 15

The data set shows the ages of the members of a book club, What is the shape of the distribution of this data set?
Charra [1.4K]

Symmetrical because the numbers in a bar graph show sort of a pyramid-like shape, rather than a skewed or flatter shape.

How do I simplify the n^-6*n^3 topic "Negative and Zero Exponents"
Alchen [17]
Since you’re multiplying n^-6 and n^3, you can add the exponents: -6+3 = -3

n^-6 * n^3 = n^-3

If you need to finish without having a negative exponent in your answer, then remember a negative exponent means that factor is on the wrong side of the fraction.

n^-3 = n^-3 / 1 = 1/n^3

when the factor moves to the other side of the fraction, the side of the exponent changes.

Can 31/50 be simplified

No because when  one number is odd and the other one is even it can't be simplified (unless they are multiples/factors of each other) ex: 7/14
