Larry pays $60.75 for a golf club that was discounted by 25%. What was the price of the golf club before the discount?

1 answer:

5 0

The price before the discount was $81.00

Given;
Discounted price = $60.75
discount rate = 25%

Since the price is already discounted, it means that it is already 75% of the original price. So, we divided the discounted price by its corresponding percentage.

Original price - discount = discounted price
100% - 25% = 75%

$60.75 ÷ 75 % = $81.00

$81.00 * 25% = 20.25 discount
$81.00 - 20.25 = 60.75 discounted price

2-4= 8 1x3 =3

8+3=11

Then 2 dolls =4 and 3 plush toys= 3

Weight should be 7oz

Plus the weight of the box 1

Please help Write an inequality for the given graph

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

y < 1/2x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

You can write the inequality equation for the graph using the form y = mx + b. The inequality line has a y-intercept at (0,-3). This means b = -3. It also has a slope of 1/2 since the line moves up 1 and over 2 to the next point on the line.

This means the lines equation is y = 1/2x - 3. But since this is an inequality, you must use an inequality sign. Since the line is dashed it is not equal to. Your options are < and >. Use the point (0,0) to test which sign is appropriate.

y < 1/2x - 3 y > 1/2x - 3

0 < 1/2(0) - 3 0 > 1/2(0) - 3

0 < -3 0 > -3

The answer is y < 1/2x - 3 since (0,0) doesn't make it true and (0,0) is not shaded in the graph. This means it is not a solution.
