<h3>Answer: $2992.26</h3>

===================================================

Explanation:

If you're given a 15% discount, then you still have to pay the remaining 85% (because 100% - 15% = 85%)

Rewrite 85% into 0.85

The multiplier for "15% discount" is 0.85

Similarly, the multiplier for a 6% discount is 0.94; note how 100% - 6% = 94% = 0.94

When we have multiple discounts chained together like this we find the product of the multipliers. So we multiply the 0.85 and 0.94 to get

0.85*0.94 = 0.799

After chaining together the two discounts, you will have to pay 79.9% of the original value. This means the overall discount is 20.1%

Take the result of 0.799 and multiply that with the marketed price of $3745 to get the final answer

0.799*3745 = 2,992.255 which rounds to 2,992.26

What is the fifth term in the arithmetic sequence defined by the explicit formula an=6n−4?
Juli2301 [7.4K]
<span>In an explicit formula, n represents any term number and a(n) represents the value of the n-th term. Therefore, in order to find the fifth term, we simply solve for a(n) when n = 5. Plugging that value into the equation gives us a(5)=6(5)-4, or a(5) = 26. The fifth term is of the sequence is 26.</span>

Х2 – 3x-10<br> 3х2 +5х-2<br> Simplificar la expresión
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 - 3x - 10 when we factorize equals

(x + 2) (x - 5)

3x^2 + 5x - 2 when we factorize equals

(3x - 1) (x + 2)

x + 2 is the common term and when we put the 2 on the other side of the equation we get x = -2

y varies directly as x and inversely as z. If y = 5 when x = 3 and z = 4, find y when x = 6 and z = 8.
dlinn [17]

Answer:

y= 201/40

Step-by-step explanation:

y=k (x÷z)

5 = (3÷4)k

cross multiply

20=3k

k= 6.7 or 67÷10

y = 6.7 (x÷z) the law

y = (6÷8) × 6.7

y = 0.75 ×6.7

y= 5.025 or 201÷40
