40% of a given number is 8...
0.40x = 8
x = 8 / 0.40
x = 20....so 20 is the given number
what is 15% of 20...
0.15(20) = 3 <==== ur answer
The discounted amount of pair of pants is $37.4
<u>Solution:</u>
Given, A pair of pants regularly costs $68.
The pants are on sale for 45% of the original price.
We have to find that how much will the discount be?
Now, <em>discounted amount = original price – sold price
</em>
Discounted amount = original price – 45% of original price
Discounted amount = $68 – 45% of $68

Hence, the discounted amount is $37.4
You are given 2/3 angles to solve for x;
24+56 = 90
90 + x = 180
x = 90 degrees
Answer:
{2, 8}
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find x for ...
15 = 4|x -5| +3
12 = 4|x -5| . . . . subtract 3
3 = |x -5| . . . . . . divide by 4
±3 = x -5 . . . . . . show the meaning of absolute value
5 ±3 = x = {2, 8} . . . . . add 5
The values of x for which f(x) = 15 are 2 and 8.
