Answer:

(d) The sale was for a 29% decrease.

Step-by-step explanation:

Original/Regular price = $42.25

New/Sale price = $29.95

Difference in prices = 42.25 - 29.95 = 12.3

Formula for finding the percentage decrease of the sale

= \frac{Difference  in  prices}{Original/Regular  price} × 100

\frac{12.3}{42.25} × 100

= \frac{1230}{42.25}

≈ 29.11 %

≈ 29 %

Therefore, the percent off the watch during the sale was approximately 29%.

Step-by-step explanation:

the 2 angles marked with orange and green are equal becos the question said that the indicated angles are congruent meaning same deg. so 180 - that given angle = the 2 marked angles (based on the rule known as angles on a str line are supplementary)

since the 2 marked angles are same, you can say that d and k are parallel due to the rule of alternate angles

Ishaan is 333 times as old as christopher and is also 141414 years older than christopher.
GalinKa [24]
<span>Ishaan is 21, Christopher is 7 No actual question given, but I will assume that the question is "How old are they?". If that's the case, we can create two equations. I'll use I for Ishaan's age and C for Christopher's. I will also assume that there's been some formatting issues here and for some reason, numbers are repeated 3 times without any spaces. So "Ishaan is 3 times as old as Christopher" I = 3C "is also 14 years older than Christopher I = C + 14 Since both equations are equal to each other, let's set them equal. So 3C = C + 14 2C = 14 C = 7 So Christopher is 7. And we can use the equation I = C + 14 to get Ishaan's age. So I = C + 14 I = 7 + 14 I = 21</span>

const2013 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be apple juice and y be orange juice

12 = x + y

x = 12 - y


15 = 1x + 1.5y

x = 15 - 1.5y

set the equations as equal

12 - y = 15 - 1.5y

solve for y

12 + .5y = 15

.5y = 3

y = 6,  you bought 6 bottles of orange juice

so, 12 = x + 6 , x = 6 , you bought 6 bottles of apple juice
