Answer: Sale Price = $84.99 (answer). This means the cost of the item to you is $84.99. You will pay $84.99 for a item with original price of $99.99 when discounted 15%. In this example, if you buy an item at $99.99 with 15% discount, you will pay 99.99 - 14.9985 = 84.99 dollars.
Step-by-step explanation:
For problems like this, we need to find the pattern between the set of numbers to create a general equation for f(x). Given that x is the shipment number, let us first observe the first six shipments' behavior.
1 10 |
2 16 = 10 + 1(6) |
3 22 = 10 + 2(6) |
4 28 = 10 + 3(6)|
5 34 = 10 + 4(6) |
6 40 = 10 + 5(6) |
From these, we can observe that given x number of shipments, the total number of objects would be

. Thus, given f(x), we have
Answer: f(x) = 6x + 4
-2.5 because a positives opposite is a negative.
First seat: 14 candidates to seat
Second seat: 13 candidates to seat
Third seat : 12 candidates
4th seat: 11 candidates
5th seat: 10 candidates
6th seat: 9 candidates
Number of different variations: 14*13*12*11*10*9 = 2,162,160 different ways,
Observe that is 14P6 = 14! / (14-6)! = 14! / 8! = 14*13*12*11*10*9*8! / 8! =
= 14*13*12*11*10*9
Answer: 2,162,160
