Part 1:

From the table, in week 1, the price increased by $1.25, in week 2, the price decreased by $3.125, in week 3, the price increased by $0.625 and in week 4, the price increased by $1.5

After the 4 week the change in price is given by 1.25 - 3.125 + 0.625 + 1.5 = 0.25.
Therefore, the price changed over the 4 weeks period by $0.25.


Part 2:

After the 4 week the change in price is given by 1.25 - 3.125 + 0.625 + 1.5 = 0.25.

Therefore, the price increased over the 4 weeks period.


Part 3:

Given that the price of 1 gram of gold was $39.28 at the end of week 4. since the price of 1 gram of gold increased by $0.25 over the 4 weeks period, the price of 1 gram of gold at the beginning of week 1 is given by:

39.28 - 0.25 = $39.03

Which expression shows a way to find 20% of 950?<br> 950<br> 20<br> 20<br> What is it
Komok [63]
To find 20% of 950 you would set it up as a proportion. When doing percentages the prevent is always out of 100 so the first step would be 20/100. You are trying to find a number out of 950 so the second part would be ?/950. Now you want to cross multiply and divide. 20*950=19,000 then you divide it by 100 (your other number) 19,000/100=190. So 20% of 950 is 190.

All computers are on sale for 10% off the original price. If x is the original price of the computer, then the function that rep
prohojiy [21]
So the original price is "x".

the discounted price by 10% is P(x) = 0.9x.

the price minus a $150 coupon is C(x) = x - 150.

so, if you go to the store, the item is discounted by 10%, so you're really only getting out of your pocket 90% of that, or 0.9x, but!!! wait a minute!! you have a $150 coupon, and you can use that for the purchase, so you're really only getting out of  your pocket 0.9x - 150, namely the discounted by 10% and then the saving from the coupon.

C(   P(x)   ) = P(x) - 150

C(   P(x)   ) = 0.9x - 150
