someone bought a shirt on sale for 25% off the original price and another 25% off the discounted price. If the final price was $16, what was the price before the first discount?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

28.44$

Step-by-step explanation:

The original price of a shirt is A.

This shirt is on sale for 25% => the price of that shirt after being sale:

P1 = A - A x 25% = A - A x (25/100) = A - A x (1/4) = A x (3/4)

This shirt is discounted one more time for 25% => the price of that shirt after being discounted second time.

P2 = P1 - P1 x 25% = P1 - P1 x (25/100) = P1 - P1 x (1/4) = P1 x (3/4) = A x (3/4)^2

P2 is given to be equal to 16$, then there is an expression:

P2 = 16

or

A x (3/4)^2 = 16

=> A x (9/16) = 16

=> A = 16 x (16/9) = 28.44$

Hope this helps!

what is algebric identities?

Algebraic identities are equations where the value of the left-hand side of the equation is identically equal to the value of the right-hand side of the equation. Unlike algebraic expressions, algebraic identities satisfy all the values of the variables.

The basic algebraic identities are primarily helpful to work out the numerous math problems. The four basic algebraic identities are as follows.

(a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²(a - b)² = a² - 2ab + b²(a + b)(a - b) = a² - b²(x + a)(x + b) = x² + x(a + b) + ab

Given:

64²

Now, we have to split the 64 into 60+4

(60 + 4)²

Now using the algebric identity

(a+ b)² = a² + b² + 2ab

So,

(60 + 4)²

=60²+2*60*4+4²

=3600+ 480+16

=3600+496

=4096

Hence, the simplified value is 4096.

Cynthia earns $680 in commissions and is paid $10.25 per hour. Javier earns $410 in commissions and is paid 12.50 per hour. What will you find if you solve for x in the equation 10.25x + 680 = 12.5x +410.

Answers

Answer:

x = 120

Step-by-step explanation:

10.25x + 680 = 12.5x +410.

Subtract 10.25x from each side

10.25x-10.25x + 680 = 12.5x-10.25x +410.

680 = 2.25x +410

Subtract 410 from each side

680-410 = 2.25x +410-410

270 = 2.25x

Divide each side by 2.25

270/2.25 =2.25x/2.25

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that 9 cat owners and 13 dog owners chose "Wet food". 10 cat owners and 14 dog owners chose "Dry food".

Cat owners-Wet food = 9

Dog owners-Wet food =13

Cat owners-Dry food = 10

Dog owners-Dry food =14

We need to construct a two-way frequency table for the data.

Take owners in the first row and type of food in first column and construct a two-way frequency as shown below:

                          Cat owner           Dog owner           Total

Wet food                    9                         13                    22

Which is the better buy?
8-kilogram bag of rice for $26.04
9-kilogram bag of rice for $29.15

Answers

Answer:  9-kilogram bag of rice for $29.15

=============================================================

Explanation:

Calculate the unit rate for the first bag

8 kg = 26.04 dollars

8/8 kg = 26.04/8 dollars ... divide both sides by 8

1 kg = 3.255 dollars

1 kg = 3.26 dollars  .... rounding to nearest cent

For the first bag, the unit rate is about 3.26 dollars per kg

---------------

Repeat for the second bag

9 kg = 29.15 dollars

9/9 kg = 29.15/9 dollars ........ divide both sides by 9

1 kg = 3.23888888888889 dollars (approx)

1 kg = 3.24 dollars  .... rounding to nearest cent

The unit rate for the second bag is roughly 3.24 dollars per kg

We see that the second bag's unit rate is cheaper by 2 cents, so it is the better deal. This is despite the fact that the entire bag costs more.

Find the distance from the point (1,4) to the line y = 1/3x - 3

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If I'm not mistaken, and I very well could be, this is a calculus problem(?). In order to find the distance without calculus you'd need a point on the given line to use to find the distance in the distance formula. But you don't have a point on the given line, so we can find the shortest distance between the point (1, 4) and the given line using the derivative of the polynomial formed when using the distance formula.

[tex]d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex] and we have the x and y for x2 (or x1...it doesn't matter which you choose to fill in):

[tex]d=\sqrt{(1-x)^2+(4-y)^2}[/tex]

but what we find is that we have too many unknowns here, namely, the distance, the x coordinate, and the y coordinate. So we can replace the y coordinate with what y is equal to in terms of the linear equation:

[tex]d=\sqrt{(1-x)^2+(4-\frac{1}{3}x-3)^2 }[/tex] and simplify:

[tex]d=\sqrt{(1-x)^2+(7-\frac{1}{3}x)^2 }[/tex]

. No we'll expand each binomial by squaring:

[tex]d=\sqrt{(1-2x+x^2)+(49-\frac{14}{3}x+\frac{1}{9}x^2) }[/tex]

.  Combining like terms gives us

[tex]d=\sqrt{\frac{10}{9}x^2-\frac{20}{3}x+50 }[/tex]

The distance between the point (1, 4) and the given line will be at a minimum when the polynomial above is at a minimum. We find the value of x for which the polynomial is at a minimum by finding its derivative, setting the derivative equal to 0, and then solving for x. The derivative of the polynomial is

[tex]\frac{20}{9}x-\frac{20}{3}[/tex]

Setting equal to 0 and getting rid of the denominators gives us

20x - 60 = 0

Solving for x gives us

20x = 60 and x = 3.

That's the value of x that gives us the shortest distance between (1, 4) and the line y = 1/3x - 3. Sub into the distance formula that x value to find the distance:

[tex]d=\sqrt{(\frac{10}{9})(3)^2-(\frac{20}{3})(3)+50 }[/tex]

which simplifies down, finally, to

x ≈ 6.325 units
