Lets say u want an item that originally cost $ 50.....and u get a 25% discount....then u are actually subtracting 25% of the original price.

25% of 50 .....turn the percent to a decimal..." of " means multiply
0.25 * 50 = 12.50.....so u would be subtracting 12.50 from $ 50 for the discounted price which is (50 - 12.5) = 37.5

here is another example...
u want an item that costs $ 90....and it is 25% off.....so u would be subtracting (25% of 90).......u would be subtracting (0.25 * 90) = 22.50 from the original price to arrive at the discounted price.
90 - 22.50 = 67.50...the discounted price

But let me show u something....taking 25% off is the same as paying 75%..
so lets say u want an item that costs $ 60....and u get a 25% discount...this means u r actually paying 75%.....ur paying 75% of 60.
0.75 * 60 = $ 45...this is what u r paying....no need for subtracting

You subtract 25% of the money you needed to spend on it.

For example, if the amount needed to spend before discount is 100

0.25 = 25%

100 x 0.25 = 40

100 - 40 = 60

you only need to spend $60 now.

hope this helps

3y - 5z = -23
leonid [27]
Starting off, we can multiply the third equation by 2 and add it to the third to get rid of both the x and y variables. Next, we get z=1. Plugging that into 3y-5z=-23, we get 3y-5=-23. Adding 5 to both sides, we get 3y=-18. After that, we can divide both sides by 3 to get y=-6. Plugging that into -2x-y-z=-3, we get -2x+6-1=-3=-2x+5. Subtracting 5x from both sides, we get -2x=-8. After that, we can divide both sides by -2 to get x=4.

What is the image of (-9,0) after a reflection over the line y=x
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

(0,-9)

Step-by-step explanation:

The image of a point (x,y) over a line y=x is given by the co-ordinate rule:

(x,y) → (y,x)

So, when we reflect a point over the line y=x, the x co-ordinate and y co-ordinate change their places.

Here, (x,y) is (-9,0). So, from the above rule, after reflection over the line y=x, the image has the following co-ordinates:

(0,-9)
