Answer:


Step-by-step explanation: The student divided the number of wins by the number of losses.

The student should have divided the number of wins by the total number of games.

The student should have first added 20 and 10 to find that there were a total of 30 games.

A manufacturer of skis offered chain discounts of 10/5/4 to many of its customers. Joe Jones ordered skis that had a total list
expeople1 [14]
,Okay, so here is how to calculate the amount of the trade discount:

I: $149,500 * .10 (10%) = 14,950 (this is the 10% discount)
149,500 - 14,950 = 134,550 (how much it costs with a 10% discount)

II: 134,550 * .5 (5%) = 6727.50
134,550 - 6727.50 = 127,822.50

III: 127,822.50 * .4 (4%) = 5112.90

The amount of the trade discount is: $14,950 + $6727.50 + $5112.90 = 26,790.40 dollars.

The equation of a line is y = 1.5x − 2. What are its slope and y-intercept?
irakobra [83]
Slope: 1.5
y-intercept: -2

Explanation:
The slope is the number attached to 'x' in the equation. In this case, 1.5 would be the slope because it's attached to x.

The y-intercept is the constant the number not attached to any variables. In this case, -2 is all by itself.

Hope that helps!

Rewrite the given expression in the form 3^u where u is a constant or an algebraic expression.
lawyer [7]
Simplifying the given expressions we proceed as follows:
(5sqrt3)^x
=5^x*(3^1/2)^x
=5^x*3^x/2
=5^x3^u
where u=x/2


(1/2)^(x-3)
=1/2^(x-3)
=2^-(3-x)
=2^u
where u=-(3-x)

9/3sqrt(3)
=3/(3)^(1/2)
=3(3)^(-1/2)

16/(3sqrt (2^x))
=1/3*(2^4*2^(-x/2))
=1/3*2^(4-x/2)
=1/3*2^u
where:
u=4-x/2

Tatami mats are used as a floor covering in Japan. one possible layout uses four identical rectangular mats and one square mat.
Basile [38]
So by definition, area is equal to the length (x) times the width (y). The area of the square mat is = x × y, or xy
If the area of<span> the rectangular mat is twice that of the square mat, the area of the rectangular mat would have to be = 2 </span>× x × y<span>
This can be written as 2x </span>× y, making the length of the rectangular mat twice that of the square mat's length, and the width the same as the square mat's width.<span>
