Answer:

  • See below

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

Initial price is p.

<u>30% discounted price:</u>

  • p - 30% =
  • p*(1 - 0.3) =
  • 0.7p

<u>Price after 20% discount:</u>

  • 0.7p - 20% =
  • 0.7p*(1 - 0.2) =
  • 0.7p*0.8 =
  • 0.56p

This is greater than the 50% which is 0.5p

b)

<u>If the final price is € 448, the initial price is:</u>

  • 0.56p = €448
  • p = €448/0.56
  • p = €800

<u>The amount of first discount is 30% of € 800:</u>

  • 0.3*€800 =
  • €240

Peter leaves Mitchell's house traveling 30 mph. Mitchell leaves 15 min later, trying to catch up to peter, going 40 mph, if they
Kruka [31]

Given :

Peter velocity , P = 30 mph .

Mitchell velocity , M = 40 mph .

Mitchell leaves 15 min later .

To Find :

If they drive along the same route how long will it take Mitchell to catch Peter.

Solution :

Distance covered by Peter in 15 min .

D = 30\times \dfrac{15}{60}=7.5\ miles

Let , time taken is x .

So , distance covered b them is equal :

7.5+30\times x=40\times x\\\\x=\dfrac{7.5}{10}=0.75\ hours\\\\x=0.75\times 60\ min\\\\x=45\ min

Therefore , time taken by them is 45 minutes .

Hence , this is the required solution .

Find the sum of 10 x 2 + 7 x + 6 10x 2 +7x+6 and 6 x + 5 6x+5.
dusya [7]

The sum of the given expression expressed as a quadratic equation is 10x^2 + 13x + 11

<h3>Sum of expressions</h3>

Expressions are equations separated by mathematical signs. This expressions are known to contains certain unknowns

Given the following expression

10x^2 +7x+6 and 6x + 5

We are to take the sum of both expression to have:

f(x) = 10x^2 +7x+6 + 6x + 5

Collect the like terms

f(x) = 10x^2 + 7x + 6x + 6 + 5

f(x) = 10x^2 + 13x + 11

Hence the sum of the given expression expressed as a quadratic equation is 10x^2 + 13x + 11

Find the area of each regular polygon. Round to the nearest tenth.
miskamm [114]

Given:

A regular polygon with three vertices and side 14 cm.

To find:

Area of the regular polygon.

Solution:

We know that, a regular polygon has equal sides and equal interior angles.

The given regular polygon has three equal sides, it means it is an equilateral triangle.

The area of an equilateral triangle is:

A=\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{4}a^2

Where, a is the side length of the triangle.

Putting a=14, we get

A=\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{4}(14)^2

A=\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{4}(196)

A=84.87049

A\approx 84.9

Therefore, the area of given regular polygon is 84.9 cm².
