Answer:
Original price reduced by 30%
Step-by-step explanation:
You want the deepest discount, which means you want the greatest percent/amount off. The first choice is 20%. The second is 30%. The third one is 25%, because you are paying for 75% (100-75). The second choice offers the deepest discount because it is 30% off.
If we have 420 books for every 7 shelves and are looking for how many books are on 4 shelves, we need to set up fractional proportions.
We have 7 shelves for every 420 books, so we will have our first fraction like this:
7/420.
We also have 4 shelves for every x books, so our second fraction will be 4/x.
Set these fractions up as an equation.
7/420 = 4/x
To solve for x, we need to cross multiply the numerators of one fraction with the denominators of the other fraction.
In other words, multiply the top number of one fraction by the bottom number of the other question.
It should look like this:
7(x)
420(4)
7(x) = 7x
420(4) = 1680
Set your products up as an equation.
7x = 1680
Now to solve for x, we need to simplify.
Currently, x is being multiplied by 7.
To get x alone, divide 7x by 7.
Remember, what you do to one side of an equation, you must do to the other, so divide 1680 by 7.
7x / 7 = x
1680 / 7 = 240
You are left with:
x = 240.
For every 4 shelves you have 240 books.

Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
the area of the triangle is 4 x 2, which equals 8.
Then you calculate the area of the rectangle.
Area of Rectangle = L x W or (in this case) 8 x 4
8 x 4 = 32
Then you subtract the area of the triangle from the area of the rectangle
So, your equation would be 32 - 8 = 24
Therefore, the area of the shape is 24
