The original price was $500
First we find 15% of what is $75
15/100 x N =$75

n = $500

What is the sum and the product of X to the power of 2, and X

melomori [17]

Answer:

The sum is x^2 + x, the product is x^3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Adding x^2 and x leaves no like terms, so no simplification is required.

Multiplying gives x^2*x, which is x*x*x, which is then x^3

Simply find the total medium cofees sold
then divide that by the number of medium cofees that weren't caffeinated

so..
$66 \div 44 = x$
then
$100 \div x = percentage$

so x will be 1.5 & 100 ÷ 1.5 = 66.666...
rounded is 67%

$67\%$

Write an equation of the line that has a slope of 3 and contains the point (2,5) in point-slope for

enot [183]

The equation would be y=3x-1

Point Slope Formula:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 5 = 3(x-2)
y - 5 = 3x - 6
+ 5 + 5
--------------------
y = 3x - 1
