Answer: original price = p

price after first 24% discount = .75p

he second 25% discount reduces the already reduced price to .75*.75p = .5625p

So, if .5625p = 16,

p = 16/.5625 = $28.44

check:

25% off $28.44 = $21.33

25% off $21.33 = $16.00

Identify the x and y intercepts for the following equation, then convert to slope intercept form.
aalyn [17]

Answer:

(3;0)

(0;15)

y=-5x+15

Step-by-step explanation:

x-intercept

-5x–0=-15

-5x=-15

-5x/-5=-15/-5

x=3 》》(3;0)

y-intercept

-5(0)-y=-15

y=15 》》 (0;15)

slope intercept form

y=mx+b

m=Y2–Y1/X2–X1

=15–0/0–3

=15/-3

=-5

evalute (0;15) & m=-5 in y=mx+b

15=-5(0)+b

15=b

so

y=-5x+15

blondinia [14]

The expression:

3 (x - 2)

indicates that the number 3 before the parenthesis is multiplying the expression inside the parenthesis.

Then in order to do such we use what is called the distributive property which tells us to "distrubute" suche multiplication among the two term that are in the parenthesis:

3 x - 3 * 2

3 x - 6

Which is the first option in your answer list.
