Answer:

\$ \ \dfrac{428}{500}x

Step-by-step explanation:

Regular price of a pair of shoes = $x

Discount offered = 20%

Amount of discount offered = 20% of $x

Discounted price = Regular price - Amount of discount

Discounted price = $x - 20% of $x = 80% of $x = \$ \frac{4}{5}x

Now, it is given that there is a sales tax of 7% as well on the price.

Sales tax is applied on the discounted price.

Therefore, sales tax = 7% of \$ \frac{4}{5}x

Final Price after applying the sales tax = \$ \frac{4}{5}x + 7% of \$ \frac{4}{5}x  

\Rightarrow 107\%\ of\ \$\ \ \dfrac{4}{5}x

\Rightarrow \$ \ \dfrac{428}{500}x

Therefore, the expression to represent the final price of the pair of shoes:

\$ \ \dfrac{428}{500}x

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

by applying Pythagoras theorem;

the ladder(13m) acts as hypotenuse

the wall (12m) acts as height

the distance between the the two is the base

therefore

a² + b² = c²

b²= c²- a²

b²= 169 - 144

b² = 25

√b² = √25

b= 5m

the distance is 5m

NemiM [27]

Answer:

y=1/2x

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line goes up by 1 over by 2 each time or 1/2. (Rise over run)

This can be proven by substituting X and Y for a point on the graph.

y=5, x=10

5=1/2(10)

5=5
