Answer:

Ok, so the discount is given in a percentage, in this case 10%.  The sale price is going to reflect 10% of the original price minus the discount, so...

Sale $ = original$ - original $ x .10

If we use some algebra, we can reorganize the equation to solve for the original price...

Sale $ = original$ - original $ x .10

Sale $ = original$ (1 - .10)

Sale $ = original$ x .90

original$ = sale$/.90

So now we can plug in our values

original price = 50/.90

original price = 55.55555 = $55.55 to the nearest nickel

If p= (-2,7) find: Rx-axis(P)​
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

P(-2,7)

P'(-2,-7), ANSWER

reflection across the x-axis rule:

(×,y) ===> (x,-y)

Easy way to do this is draw the point on graph paper and count the same units above/below the x-axis. This example you are 7 units above the x-axis so you would count 7 units below the x-axis giving you the point.

Carlie runs two different business. She needs to pay $100 for materials, and pay her associates $12 per hour for
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

375+12ct_c+10lt_l

Step-by-step explanation:

Carlie is running two different business.

She needs to pay:

- For the childcare business,

100$ for the materials

12$ per hour for each associate for her childcare business, so if we call:

t_c = the number of hours worked by each associate

c = the number of associates

The total cost for the childcare business is:

C=100+12ct_c (1)

- For the lawn care business,

275$ for the materials

10$ per hour for each associate for her lawn care business, so if we call:

t_l = the number of hours worked by each associate

l = the number of associates

The total cost for the lawn care business is:

L=275+10lt_l (2)

Therefore, the total expenses from both businesses is the sum of (1) and (2):

T=C+L=100+12ct_c+275+10lt_l = 375+12ct_c+10lt_l

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

The number for Aisha's highest score will be <u>turn 2</u> on the number line.

That number is <u>10</u>.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the options of the drop down menu are not included, you should choose any option similar to lowest.

Aisha's highest score was obtained in turn 2 and that is 10.

Aisha is comparing absolute terms, that is why she believes that -16 represents a good score, while in reality is the worst she got.

What single decimal multiplier would you use to increase by 15% followed by a 14% increase?
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The single decimal multiplier that I will use to increase by 15% followed by a 14% increase is 1.311

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number

Remember that

100\%+15\%=115\%=115/100=1.15

100\%+14\%=114\%=114/100=1.14

we know that

Increase a number by 15% followed by a 14% increase is the same that multiply the number for (1.15)(1.14)

so

x(1.15)(1.14)=1.311x

therefore

The single decimal multiplier that I will use to increase by 15% followed by a 14% increase is 1.311
