D I guess because if you multiply all of that together, you get 0.0625 which is 1/16 and then you simplify it to be 1/4
Answer:
if there was a 15% discount, then you paid 75% of the original price. Since we don't know the orginal price, we will assign it the variable x. Change 75% to a decimal. The equation would be:
.75x = 208.25 To get the variable by itself, divide each side by .75
.75x/.75= 208.25/.75
x = 277.6
The original price of the suit was $277.6
I hope this helped you.
X=-2y
1. ( , 0);
2. (9, );
3. ( , -2);
1. (0, 0), as any number multiplied by 0 is 0.
2. x=9, so 9=-2y, y=-4.5 - (9, -4.5)
3. y=-2, so -2y=(-2)*(-2)=4=x - (4, -2)
Solutions: (0, 0), (9, -4.5), <span>(4, -2).</span>
V - the crew rowing rate,
u - rate of the current.
Downstream: v + u = 13.5/1.5 = 9 mph
Upstream : v - u = 13.5/4.5 = 3 mph
u = 9 - v
v - ( 9 - v ) = 3
v - 9 + v = 3
2 v = 12
v = 6 mph, u = 9 - 6 = 3 mph
Answer: the crew`s rowing rate is 6 mph and the rate of the current is 3 mph.
I guess its 3.5x (edited) .....
