Answer:

Well, you didnt include answers, but... here's the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so, the sale is 15% off. As an example, lets use $10 as the original price. 15% off of $10 = 1.5, so we subtract 10 - 1.5 = 8.5. Now, if the sale tax is 8%, we need to add 8% of 10, which is 0.8 - Now we get our final equation to calculate p, which is 8.5 + 0.8 = P. 8.5 + 0.8 = 9.3, and so the final price after discount AND sales tax are included is $9.3 - Hope this helped.

Jalil and Victoria are each asked to solve the equation ax – c = bx + d for x. Jalil says it is not possible to isolate x becaus

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Give the expression ax – c = bx + d, we are isolate x i.e we are to make x the subject of the formula.

ax – c = bx + d

Step 1: subtract bx from both sides

ax – c = bx + d

ax-bx = d+c

Step 2: Factor out x in the left hand side of the resulting expression

x(a-b) = d+c

Step 3: Divide both sides by the coefficient of i.e (a-b)

$\frac{x(a-b)}{a-b} = \frac{d+c}{a-b}$

$x = \frac{d+c}{a-b}$

Hence Victoria can justify the step 3 of her work by dividing both sides of the expression in 2 by a-b

A composition of transformations ΔKLM maps ΔK"L"M" to . Triangle K L M is rotated 270 degrees about point P to form Triangle K p

telo118 [61]

Answer:

a 270° rotation about point P

Step-by-step explanation:

Because after transformation MK and M'K 'are at 90°, that implies that MK is rotated as 90 ° clockwise around P or 270 ° counterclockwise around P.

Therefore the transformation composition that maps $\triangle KLM$ to $\triangle$ K"L"M",

So, for this composition, the first transformation is 270° is the 270° rotation i.e to be counterclockwise about point P.

While the transformation of the second would be down translation that goes to the right.

hence, the last option is correct

Air pressure may be represented as a function of height above the surface of the Earth as shown below. P(h)=PoE^-.00012h In this

AlexFokin [52]

The equation to find the air pressure (P(h)) at a height above sea level (h) is given by

$P(h)=P_{0} e^{-0.00012h}$

Where,

P(h) is the new pressure at height h
$P_{0}$ is the air pressure at sea level, and
h is the height (measured in meters).

We want to know the new pressure that is 65% of $P_0$ . So we should substitute $0.65P_0$ in P(h) (new pressure) to get the equation:

$0.65P_0=P_0e^{-0.00012h}$ . Answer choice B is the correct one.

Sadie simplified the expression StartRoot 54 a Superscript 7 b cubed EndRoot, where a greater-than-or-equal-to 0, as shown colon

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

Sadie's error is " she made error in step 2 $=\sqrt{3^2\times 6\times a^2\times a^5\times b^2\times b}$ where $a\geqslant 0$ "

Because she made error in splitting the powers to simplify the square root

<h3>Therefore the correct answer for Sadie's expression is $3ab\sqrt{6ab}$ where $a\geqslant 0$ </h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that " Sadie simplified the expression StartRoot 54 a Superscript 7 b cubed EndRoot, where a greater-than-or-equal-to 0, "

It can be written as $\sqrt{54a^7b^3}$ where $a\geqslant 0$

The given expression is $\sqrt{54a^7b^3}$ where $a\geqslant 0$

To find Sadie's error and explain the correct answer :

Sadie's steps are

$\sqrt{54a^7b^3}$ where $a\geqslant 0$

$=\sqrt{3^2\times 6\times a^2\times a^5\times b^2\times b}$

$=3ab\sqrt{6a^5b}$

<h3> $\sqrt{54a^7b^3}=3ab\sqrt{6a^5b}$ where $a\geqslant 0$ </h3><h3><u>Now corrected steps are</u></h3>

$\sqrt{54a^7b^3}$ where $a≥0$

$=\sqrt{(9\times 6)(a^{6+1})(b^{2+1})$

$=\sqrt{(3^2\times 6)(a^6.a^1)(b^2.b^1)$ (by using the identity $a^{m+n}=a^m.a^n$

$=\sqrt{3^2\times 6\times ((a^3)^2.a)(b^2.b)$ (by using the identity $a^{mn}=(a^m)^n$ )

$=3ab\sqrt{6ab}$

Therefore $\sqrt{54a^7b^3}=3ab\sqrt{6ab}$ where $a\geqslant 0$

<h3>The correct answer is $3ab\sqrt{6ab}$ where $a\geqslant 0$ </h3>

Sadie's error is " she made error in step 2 $=\sqrt{3^2\times 6\times a^2\times a^5\times b^2\times b}$ " where $a\geqslant 0$

Because she made error in splitting the powers to simplify the square root

<h3>Therefore the correct answer for Sadie's expression is $3ab\sqrt{6ab}$ where $a\geqslant 0$ </h3>
