Answer:

$787.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original price of the bicycle be $x.

If the original price was first discounted by 50% and then discounted an additional 10%, the total percentage discount will be 60%.

Using the formula

S = p(1-r) where

S is the sales price of the bicycle

p is the original price of the bicycle

r is the percentage discount

Given sales price = $315

Total percentage discount = 60% = 0.6

Substituting this in the formula above we have:

$315 = p(1-0.6)

$315 = 0.4p

P = $315/0.4

P = $787.5

The original price of the bicycle = $787.5

This means that the bicycle was discounted in total by 60%, so $315 is 40% of the original price to get 40% to 100% youd multiply it by 2.5 so so the same to the price 315 x 2.5= 787.5

At first, Anita looks like her account would grow faster. By month 4, shes at $1,200 while Miguel is at $400. However, Anita is only getting $200 a month. While Miguel gets double of whatever amount he has in his bank account. By month 10, Anita is at $2,400 while Miguel has $25,600. That is a $23,200 difference. So Miguel's bank account will grow faster than Anita.

Compute E(X) for the following random variable X : X=Number of tosses until all 10 numbers are seen (including the last toss) by
julsineya [31]

Answer:

For 10 tosses we have that E(X)=10

Therefore E(i)= 1/10 +2/10 +3/10....10/10

This implies that 40/10=E(i)

Therefore E(10) =40/10

= 4.

When 27x^2z/-3x^2z^6 is completely simplified, the exponent on the variable z is _____.
Savatey [412]
<span>The expression given (27x^2)z/(-3x^2)(z^6), can be simplify as below:

 By properties of powers, if you have the same base, you can substract the exponents. Then:

 =(</span>27x^2)z/(-3x^2)(z^6)
 =-9z/z^6  (As you can see: x^2-2= x^0=1)
 =-9/z^5    (Then, z^6-1=z^5)
<span>
 Therefore, the answer is: The exponent on the variable z is 5.</span>
