Let the price be p. Then 1.10p = $8.25. Solving for p, p = $750 (answer)

The equation can be framed as follows:

Before tax cost *(1+tax rate) = Final cost

Given tax rate = 10% = 0.1

Final cost = $825

Before tax cost *(1+0.1) = 825

Before tax cost * 1.1 = 825

Before tax cost = 825/1.1

Before tax cost = $750

Price of the couch before taxes = $750

Answer:

randomly requiring half the drivers to drive with sunglasses and the other half to drive without sunglasses.

Step-by-step explanation:

When employing an independent group design in a research or experimental study, the different groups in the study are assigned entirely different subjects such that, subjects in the treatment group are different from those in the control group. Therfore, adopting an independent group design in the scenario described above means diving the subjects into two at random with one half driving with sunglasses and the other half having to drive without it.

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

$m\angle CDE=14^o$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles.

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

∠DEF=∠ECD+∠CDE

substitute the given values

$(4x+5)^o=(x+9)^o+(x+8)^o$

solve for x

Combine like terms

$(4x+5)^o=(2x+17)^o$

Group terms

$4x-2x=17-5$

$2x=12$

$x=6$

Find the measure of angle CDE

$m\angle CDE=(x+8)^o$

substitute the value of x

$m\angle CDE=(6+8)=14^o$
