The percentage that the store has taken off would be 30%.
I might want to use the commutative property to change the order of the integers in the following sum before adding the given expression
"-80 + (-173)+(-20)"
As commutative property states that " Changing the order of addends does not change the sum" which means if we add 'a' to 'b' or 'b' to 'a', we will get the same answer.
Therefore, here if we add '-80' to '-173' or '-173' to '-80' , or if we add '-173' to '-20' or '-20' to '-173' , we will get the same answer.
Therefore, we might use commutative property to change the order the of integers in the following sum.
Answer: B. 77
Sub x =6 into the given expression
4x^2 - 12x + 5
= 4(6)^2 - 12(6) + 5
= 144 - 72 + 5
= 77
Answer:
$60.
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost price= $50
Selling price = $80
Percentage markup = Gain/Cost price x 100%
=30/50x100
=$60.
Answer: x = 1, y = - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The given system of linear equations is expressed as
x - 2y = 11- - - - - - - - - - - - -1
- x + 6y = - 31- - - - - - - - - - - -2
We would eliminate x by adding equation 1 to equation 2. It becomes
- 2y + 6y = 11 - 31
4y = - 20
Dividing the the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation by 4, it becomes
4y/4 = - 20/4
y = - 5
Substituting y = - 5 into equation 1, it becomes
x - 2 × - 5 = 11
x + 10 = 11
Subtracting 10 from the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation, it becomes
x + 10 - 10 = 11 - 10
x = 1
