Answer:

subtract the new price from the original price

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percent markdown, first subtract the new price from the original price

154.30-127.92

26.38

Then divide by the original price

26.38/154.30

.170965651

Multiply by 100% to get the percent decrease

17.0965651% decrease

Evaluate (−23)×(−23)3 by using the Laws of Exponents

Nikolay [14]

Given:

$\left(-\dfrac{2}{3}\right)\times \left(-\dfrac{2}{3}\right)^3$

To find:

The value of given expression by using the Laws of Exponents.

Solution:

We have,

$\left(-\dfrac{2}{3}\right)\times \left(-\dfrac{2}{3}\right)^3$

Using the Laws of Exponents, we get

$=\left(-\dfrac{2}{3}\right)^{1+3}$ $[\because a^ma^n=a^{m+n}]$

$=\left(\dfrac{-2}{3}\right)^{4}$

$=\dfrac{(-2)^4}{(3)^4}$ $[\because \left(\dfrac{a}{b}\right)^n=\dfrac{a^n}{b^n}]$

$=\dfrac{(-2)\times (-2)\times (-2)\times (-2)}{(3)\times (3)\times (3)\times (3)}$

$=\dfrac{16}{81}$

Therefore, the value of given expression is $\dfrac{16}{81}$ .

TRIGONOMETRY - Given the complex numbers <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=z_%7B1%7D%20%3D20%20cis%20226" id="TexFormula1" title

Norma-Jean [14]

This is easily done after writing both complex numbers in exponential form:

$z_1=20\,\mathrm{cis}226^\circ=20e^{226^\circ i}$

$z_2=5\,\mathrm{cis}76^\circ=5e^{76^\circ i}$

Then

$\dfrac{z_1}{z_2}=\dfrac{20e^{226^\circ i}}{5e^{76^\circ i}}=4e^{(226-76)^\circ i}=4e^{150^\circ i}$

In trigonometric form, this is

$\dfrac{z_1}{z_2}=4\,\mathrm{cis}150^\circ=4(\cos150^\circ+i\sin150^\circ)=\boxed{-\dfrac{\sqrt3}2+\dfrac i2}$

Find the midpoint of the segment with the following end points (10,5) and (6,9)

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

The mid-point between the endpoints (10,5) and (6,9) is:

$\left(x,\:y\right)=\left(8,\:7\right)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let (x, y) be the mid-point

Given the points

(10,5)

(6,9)

Using the formula to find the mid-point between the endpoints (10,5) and (6,9)

$\left(x,\:y\right)=\left(\frac{x_2+x_1}{2},\:\:\frac{y_2+y_1}{2}\right)$

Here:

$\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(10,\:5\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(6,\:9\right)$

Thus,

$\left(x,\:y\right)=\left(\frac{x_2+x_1}{2},\:\:\frac{y_2+y_1}{2}\right)$

$\left(x,\:y\right)=\left(\frac{6+10}{2},\:\frac{9+5}{2}\right)$

$\left(x,\:y\right)=\left(8,\:7\right)$

Therefore, the mid-point between the endpoints (10,5) and (6,9) is:

$\left(x,\:y\right)=\left(8,\:7\right)$
