Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the expressions :
The list price of the item is 80 percent of the original price. The price of the item has been reduced by 80 percent.
Write a pair of linear equations using variables of your choice to prove that these two statements are not equivalent.
Let the original price = x
Expression 1 : The list price of the item is 80 percent of the original price
List price = 80% of x
List price = 0.8x
Expression 2: The price of the item has been reduced by 80 percent
Price = x - 80% of x
Price = x - 0.8x
Price = 0.2x
Multiply by percentages is different from an Incremental or decrement in percentage. The first expression above signifies a direct multiplication by the stated percentage while the second signifies a decrease in price based on a certain percentage of the original price.
Wording of percentages are so important for clarity in other to understand if the statement signifies a direct application of the percentage prescribed or a change in quantity, amount or size relative to the base unit.
The answer is D, because the others can be solved. A when factored is equal to -3, when B is factored it is equal to 3,-1, when C is factored it is 1,-4. D can be solved but you will only get irrational numbers which can't be used.
Answer:
m=-4
Step-by-step explanation:
5m-10m=-10m+5m=-(10m-5m)=-5m=20
divide by 5 on both sides, -m=4
miltiply by -1 on both sides, m=-4
225/5 = 45
This means the parents gave her five dollars forty five times. If they gave her a five every time she saved one dollar, you just have to multiply the money she saved each time and the number of times she saved it, and you'll get the answer.
Wendy saved $45 by herself
we are given two points as
(3, 16) and (5, 10)
firstly , we will find slope
slope is m
so, we can use formula
now, we can plug points
we can plug it in y=mx+b
we get
now, we can select any one points
and find b
(3,16)
x=3 and y=16
we can find b
now, we can plug back b
and we get
so, equation is
and
