Hi there!

First we need to realise that the 18% discount equals John's savings. Therefore 18% of the original price is $13.23.

When we know 18% of the price, we can also find 1% of the total price.

18% = $13.23
Divide both sides by 18.

1% = $0.735
To find the total price, which equals 100%, we know only need to multiply both sides by 100.

100% = $73.50.
Therefore, the original price for the coat is $73.50.

~ Hope this helps you!

Mr. Hoya brought 5 watermelons from his grocery store. The watermelons weighed 8 1/4 pound, 9 1/4 pound, 8 7/8 pound, 9 5/8 poun

First add all the watermelon weights together (to add the fourths and the eighths multiply the fourths by 2 (1/4x2=2/8) and add the numerators). Then multiply the number of people (153) by how much they each ate (1/4). Then subtract the total amount eaten (38 1/4) from the total weight (46 3/4) and compare that with 8 1/2... The left overs are actually equal to 8 1/2 pounds :)

an employer will do a 50% match on your investment to a 401k retirement plan. If you decide to contribute a monthly amount of $2
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

The amount that should be in the account after 15 years is $95,321.85

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given data, we have the following:

monthly amount of $220=R

interest rate is fixed at 2.05%. We require the monthly ineterest rate, hence monthly interest rate= 2.05%/12=0.1708%=0.0017

t=15years×12=180 months

In order to calculate how much should be in the account after 15 years, we would have to use the following formula:

Ap=<u>R(1-(1+i)∧-t)</u>

             i

Ap=<u>220(1-(1+0.0017)∧-180)</u>

                       0.0017

Ap=<u>162,04</u>

      0.0017

Ap=$95,321.85

The amount that should be in the account after 15 years is $95,321.85

Students were asked to write 6x^5 + 8x-3x^3+7x^7 in standard form
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

The standard form is 7x^7 +6x^5-3x^3 + 8x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

6x^5 + 8x-3x^3+7x^7

To Find :

standard form of 6x^5 + 8x-3x^3+7x^7

Solution:

A polynomial is in standard form when its term of highest degree is first, its term of 2nd highest is 2nd etc.

In order to write any polynomial in standard form, you look at the degree of each term. You then write each term in order of degree, from highest to lowest, left to write.

Now lets check the degree of each term in the polynomial

The degree of 6x is 5

The degree of 8x is 1

The degree of 3x is 3

 The degree of 7x is 7

Now rewrite  the polynomial in the order of the degree, from highest to lowest

7x^7 +6x^5-3x^3 + 8x
