20 percent of the discount minus 5 percent sales tax equals to 15 percent.
know calculate the 15 percentage out of 78,12 so x on 78,12 equals to 20 on 100 so 78,12 equals to 100 percent and x equals to 15 percent so 78,12 times 15 divided by 100 is 15 percent or the number you found discount and and sales tax combined know you substact 15 percent out of your original price.
The perimeter is:
P = 2x + 2y = 80
The area is:
A = x * y
The area as a function of a variable is:
A (x) = x * (40-x)
Rewriting we have:
A (x) = 40x-x ^ 2
We derive the function:
A '(x) = 40-2x
We equal zero and clear x:
40-2x = 0
2x = 40
x = 40/2
x = 20 feet
The other dimension is:
y = 40 - x
y = 40 - 20
y = 20 feet
The area will be:
A = x * y
A = 20 * 20
A = 400 feet ^ 2
Answer:
The dimensions are:
x = 20 feet
y = 20 feet
The area is:
A = 400 feet ^ 2
4 to he power of 1/2 is 2
I think thats because its 1/2 of 2
Sorry if I'm wrong
Hope this helps
