I would say it is A because if you subtract <em>p,</em> the original price by $2.50, you would get <em>d, </em>the discounted price. Look at B u see that you're adding the discount which doesn't make sense. Looking at C, the discounted price of different prices can't always be the same. And finally, D, the discounted price is greater than the original. Also, if you subtract you would get different discounts.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
That would be an isosceles triangle, therefore, acute. All angles measure 60, therefore being acute. I'm not 100% sure though.
Answer:
In the given figure the point on segment PQ is twice as from P as from Q is. What is the point? Ans is (2,1).
Step-by-step explanation:
There is really no need to use any quadratics or roots.
( Consider the same problem on the plain number line first. )
How do you find the number between 2 and 5 which is twice as far from 2 as from 5?
You take their difference, which is 3. Now splitting this distance by ratio 2:1 means the first distance is two thirds, the second is one third, so we get
4=2+23(5−2)
It works completely the same with geometric points (using vector operations), just linear interpolation: Call the result R, then
R=P+23(Q−P)
so in your case we get
R=(0,−1)+23(3,3)=(2,1)
Why does this work for 2D-distances as well, even if there seem to be roots involved? Because vector length behaves linearly after all! (meaning |t⋅a⃗ |=t|a⃗ | for any positive scalar t)
Edit: We'll try to divide a distance s into parts a and b such that a is twice as long as b. So it's a=2b and we get
s=a+b=2b+b=3b
⇔b=13s⇒a=23s
The answer to the problem is approximately 19 liters
) by changing the 14 to 0. That way we'll left with 
which only has one real root:
