Answer:
.90(85.00) would give the same result
Step-by-step explanation:
Rhonda is using the total cost of the item ($85.00) multiplied by the discount (10%) to find the total discount: 85 x 0.10 = 8.50. Once Rhonda subtracts the discount ($8.50) from the total: $85 - $8.50 = $76.50. The other way to look at the problem, is that Rhonda is only paying for 90% of the total cost of the items, instead of 100% since she is receiving the 10% discount. So, she would get the same final total by multiplying the cost of the items ($85.00) by 90%, or 0.90.
So, the shortest side is 13, the other two fellows are two consecutive values.... ok... let's say the other leg is "a", a consecutive value to that will be a+1, so the hypotenuse is "a + 1" then
check the picture below
and surely you'd know what "a" is
Answer: <em>Multiply the original price by the decimal form of the percent and subtract that from the original price.
</em>
<em>37*0.85=31.45
</em>
<em>37-31.45=5.55
</em>
<u><em>Answer: New price is $5.55</em></u>
