(i) Challenge: Thembi received 8% discount on an item which cost

Paul [167]

Answer:

$x = 0.25$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Cost\ Price = 6 + x$

$Discount =8\%$

$Amount\ Paid = R6 - x$

Required

Find x

First, we calculate the amount paid in terms of the cost price.

This is calculated using:

$Amount\ Paid = Cost\ Price * (100\% - Discount)$

$Amount\ Paid = (6 + x) * (100\% - 8\%)$

$Amount\ Paid = (6 + x) * 92\%$

Express as decimal

$Amount\ Paid = (6 + x) * 0.92$

Open bracket

$Amount\ Paid = 5.52 + 0.92x$

So, we have:

$Amount\ Paid = 5.52 + 0.92x$ and

$Amount\ Paid = R6 - x$ ---- given

Equate both

$6 - x = 5.52 + 0.92x$

Collect like terms

$- x -0.92x= 5.52-6$

$-1.92x= -0.48$

$1.92x= 0.48$

Solve for x

$x = \frac{0.48}{1.92}$

$x = 0.25$

harina [27]

Answer:

There is no answer. I'm sorry but more information is needed in order to find the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

However, the problem can be written.

It will look like:

3n - 1.

Since the number can be anything, this is not an answerable question because it must equal a number on the right side of the equation.

Kendra ordered a set of blue and brown pins. She received 100 pins, and 30% of them were blue. How many blue pins did Kendra rec

natka813 [3]

Answer:

30 blue pins

Step-by-step explanation:

30% is the same as 30 out of 100, so this can be written in this fraction: $\frac{30}{100}$

now, you should multiply this fraction by the total number of pins she ordered:

100 x $\frac{30}{100}$

to solve this, you can simplify by dividing 100 by 100, this equals 1

30 times 1 is 30

there are 30 blue pins
