Answer:

2.6 and 5.4 are both the same sign, he should add them and then take that negative sign from (-5.4), so the answer would be -8.0.

Find the sticker price and dealer's cost for the Tarop Series car. The base price given is $24,990.00. The options for the Tarop

podryga [215]

Alright, lets get started.

The base price is given : $ 24990

The dealer pays 76% of the base price means

he pays for base price : $24990 * \frac{76}{100}$

he pays for base price : $ 18992.4

For options, total : $868 + 452 + 1260 = 2580$

He pays 88% for options, means

he pays for options : $2580 * \frac{88}{100}$

he pays for options : $ 2270.4

So, total dealer pays : $18992.4 + 2270.4 +$ destination charges

So, total dealer pays : $18992.4 + 2270.4 + 630 =$ $ 21892.8

Hence dealer's cost : $ 21892.8

Price of sticker will be : $24990 + 868 + 452 + 1260 + 630$

Price of sticker will be : $ 28200

dealer's cost : $ 21892.8

Hope it will help :)

How will you know that the expression is a perfect square trinomial?

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

An expression will be said to be a perfect square trinomial if it takes the form of ax² + bx + c and if it satisfies the condition b² = 4ac.

Step-by-step explanation:

An expression which is obtained from the square of a binomial equation is known as perfect square trinomial.

Now, the conditions for which an equation will be called a perfect square trinomial are;

i) It is of the form: ax² + bx + c

I) It satisfies the condition: b² = 4ac.

Thus, the perfect square formula could take the following forms:

(ax)² + 2abx + b² = (ax + b)²

(ax)² − 2abx + b² = (ax − b)²

The area of a rectangle gets reduced by 9 sq. units,if its length is reduced by 5 units and Breadth is increased by 3 units.If w

Scilla [17]

Let the length and breadth of the rectangle be x and y.

Area of rectangle is A = xy

Therefore, the new length will be = x-5

Therefore, the new breadth will be = y + 3

So new area will be xy-9

Now the new relation will be (x+3)(y+2)=xy+67

Cross – multiplication method–

$\dfrac{x}{{{b_1}{c_2} - {b_2}{c_1}}} =\dfrac{y}{{{a_2}{c_1} - {c_2}{a_1}}} = \dfrac{1}{{{a_1}{b_2} - {a_2}{b_1}}} || x = \dfrac{{{b_1}{c_2} - {b_2}{c_1}}}{{{a_1} {b_2} - {a_2}{b_1}}} y = \dfrac{{{a_2}{c_1} - (c_2}{a_1}}}{{{a_1}{b_2}-{a_2}{b_1}}}\\$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{x}{{305 - ( - 18)}} =\dfrac{y}{{ - 12 - ( - 183)}} = \dfrac{1}{{9 - 10)}}\\\$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{x}{{323}} = \dfrac{y}{{171}} = \dfrac{1}{{19}} \\\Rightarrow x = 17, y = 9 \\$

Therefore, the length is 17 and breadth is 9.
