12———-100%
8 ———— x
X=(8*100)/12=800/12=66.66%
Then discount percent is 100-66.66=33.33%

Ken paid 412 for two magazines. The cost of each magazine was multiple of 43. What are the possible prices of the magazines

andrew11 [14]

I'm guessing you mean magazines as in bullets. Well, if he paid $412 dollars for two, and each were sold as a multiple of 43. Then each bullet was $4.79.

You find this by dividing 412 by 2 which gives you $206.

Now divide that by 43. Which is $4.79 (.ea) bullet.

Solve 3x²-x-2=0. Please show all work.

lorasvet [3.4K]

3x²-x-2=0

Δ=1+24=25 (Δ=b²-4ac)

x₁,₂= $\frac{1(+/-)\sqrt{25} }{6}$

x₁,₂= $\frac{1(+/-)5}{6}$

x1= $\frac{1+5}{6}$ =6/6=1

x2= $\frac{1-5}{6}$ = $\frac{-2}{3}$

x1=1

x2= $\frac{-2}{3}$

In the diagram below angle AED=(4n-20)° and angle BEC=(2n-16)°. What is the measure of angle CED in degrees

Pavlova-9 [17]

Check the picture below.

so, bearing in mind that vertical angles are equal, thus ∡AED = ∡BEC, and we know that ∡BEC = 52 = ∡AED, so those two angles added up are 104°.

now, a circle has a total of 360°, if we take away those 104° from the red angles, what's leftover is just 256°, well, the green angles there are also vertical angles and thus twins, so each one will take half of 256°.

∡BEA = 128° = ∡CED.
