Answer:

50% of 3000

Step-by-step explanation:

49% is very close to 50% (half).  3,025 pounds is very close to 3,000 pounds.

Half of 3,000 pounds is 1,500 pounds.

A local bookstore has a sale on all their paperbacks giving a 10% discount. You also received a coupon in the mail for $4 off yo
oee [108]

Answer:

Discount before the Coupon

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of two paperbacks at $8 each=2 X $8 =$16

First, we determine for the case in which the coupon is applied first.

If the $4 Coupon is applied,

Cost=$16-$4 = $12

If the 10% discount is further applied,

Amount to be paid = $12-(10% of $12) =$12-1.2= $10.8

However if the discount is applied first,

Book Cost=$16-(10% of $16)=16-1.6=14.4

If the Coupon is then applied,

Amount to be paid= $(14.4-4)=$10.4

Since $10.4 is less than $10.8, we conclude therefore that it is less expensive to apply the discount first.

When asked to write a point slope equation for a line passing through the points (-4,-7) and (3,2) a student wrote y-2=-9/7(x-3)
AleksAgata [21]
First let's find the slope
Slope formula: 
\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} =slope
Given the two coordinates: 
(-4,-7) (3,2) 
 x1,y1  x2,y2

Plug these numbers into the formula
\frac{2-(-7)}{3-(-4)} = \frac{9}{7}
In this case the mistake that was made was that the student wrote the slope negative instead of positive
Final answer: 
<span>y-2=9/7(x-3)</span>
