Solve. Use the discount equation

Mathematics
1 answer:
mote1985 [20]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

\$ 400.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, S (sales price) and r (discount rate) are both given. The unknown is the regular price, R.

Rearrange the discount equation to solve for R in terms of S and r.

S = R - r\, R.

S = (1 - r)\, R.

Divide both sides by (1 - r):

\displaystyle \frac{S}{1 - r} = \frac{(1 - r)\, R}{1 - r}.

\begin{aligned}R &= \frac{S}{1 - r}\end{aligned}.

It is given that S = 320. A mark-down of 20\% is equivalent to a discount rate of r = 20 / 100 = 0.20. Substitute in S and r to find the value of R:

\begin{aligned}R &= \frac{S}{1 - r} \\ &= \frac{320}{1 - 0.2} \\ &= \frac{320}{0.8}  \\ &= 400\end{aligned}.

Thus, the regular price would be \$ 400.

Find a linear equation whose graph is the straight line with the given property.
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

y = 3/4x - 9/8

Then read explanation and see here with 2 coordinates would make

if 3/4 = -6 then 1 = -8

y = -6x + c

-6 / 3/4  + 9/8 / - 0.5  = -2.25

therefore c = -2.25

y = -6x - 2.25

y = -6x - 9/4  and again 9/4 can be found easily if round up fraction decimal to 225/100 and divide by 4

Step-by-step explanation:

C1)    (0.5 , -0.75)

C2)   ( 1. -3.75)

y = mx + c

-3.75 - - 0.75  /   1 - 0.5  = -3.75 + 0.75 / 0.5

= -3 / 0.5 = m

m = -6

y = -6x + c

then this works given just one coordinate to solve for 1 or 2 sets given points

y - y1 = mx+c

y - - 0.75 =  0.75 (x - x1)

y + 0.75 = 0.75 (x - 0.5)

y + 0.75 = 0.75x - 0.375

y = 0.75 - 0.75   =  0.75x( - 0.375 - 0.75)

y = 0.75x -1.125

y = 3/4x - 9/8    as common denominators of 1125/1000 is 9/8 as we divide by  125 into the fraction as we start at 250 and check its half just like when finding common denominators we 1/4 the lower number and see if we can find its half or its double etc with the other num er as first step for 3sf numbers.
