Answer:

Jane's friend's assumption about the original price was incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

A price of $40 after being given a 20% discount would end up being $50 instead of $48. This is because 20% of $50 is $10, and that is what was deducted from the price to make it $40.

Hope I helped! ☺

Answer:

she is incorrect because if she was given a 20% discount the amount she would have to pay is 38.4

Step-by-step explanation:

48 x .2 = 9.6

48 - 9.6 = 38.4 not 40

Which pair of polygons is similar
DedPeter [7]
I didn’t see an image or anything but I looked it up and it said regular polygons, since they have the sides all the same length they must always be in the same proportions, and their interior angles are always the same.
