Hello there! So, let's do this a bit at a time. Mike's Bikes sells a bike for $300, but gives a 25% discount for any bike in the store. To find out how much he would pay for the bike, multiply 300 by 75% (0.75). This is because you are still paying 75% of the original price for that bike. When you do, you get 225. That's $225 for the bike at Mike's Bikes. Now, the one at Cycle Center sells a bike for $275, but gives a rebate of $40 after purchasing the bike. A rebate is basically a refund: you get money paid back to you. In this case, we would subtract 40 from 275, because you're basically getting paid back some of what you did pay. 275 - 40 is 235. That's $235 for the bike at Cycle Center. I'll write the prices of the bikes out to make it easier to read.

Mike's Bikes: $225
Cycle Center: $235

Okay. so when you look at the prices for the mountain bikes, you see that the bike at Mike's Bikes is $10 cheaper than the bike at Cycle Center. Dante should purchase his mountain bike at Mike's Bikes, because he will pay less money there. The Cycle Center does give $40 back, but Mike's Bikes has the bike that costs less. 225 < 235.

What is the 46th term in the arithmetic sequence? -1.5,-1.3, -1.1,-0.9...?
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

a(46) = -1.5 + 0.2(45) = -1.5 + 9 = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Each term of this sequence is 0.2 greater than the previous term.  The formula for this arithmetic sequence is

a(n) = -1.5 + 0.2(n - 1)

and so the 46th term is:

a(46) = -1.5 + 0.2(45) = -1.5 + 9 = 7.5

Help ASAP - Find the area of the composite figure made up of a square and a semicircle. Use 3.14 as an approximation for and giv
rodikova [14]

Answer:

200.52 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the area of a circle, you square 6 and multiply it by pi in this case 3.14.

that gives you 113.04 but because this is only a half circle, it is 56.52 in^2.

Next, you need to find the rectangle. multiply 12(length) by 12(Width) to get 144 add 144 to 56.52 to get 200.52.

Hope this helped if it did please give me brainliest it helps me a lot. :)

Have a good day!

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

15.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Patty is building a rope ladder tree house she needs two 4 foot pieces of rope for the sides of the ladder.

She needs 6 pieces of rope each 15 inches long for the steps.

Question asked:

How many feet of rope does patty need to make the ladder ?

Solution:

She needs for the sides of the ladder = Two 4 foot pieces of rope

                                                                = 2 \times 4 feet = 8 feet

She needs for the steps of the ladder = 6 pieces of 15 inches long rope

                                                               = 6 \times 15 inches = 90 inches

Convert 90 inches into feet:-

12 inches = 1 feet

1  inches = \frac{1}{12} \ feet

90 inches = \frac{1}{12} \times90=\frac{90}{12} =7.5\ feet

Patty needs total rope = 8 feet + 7.5 feet

                                     = 15.5 feet

Thus, Patty needs 15.5 feet of rope to make the ladder.
