what is the original price when the discount is 25% and the sale price is $40

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the original price was $53.33

Step-by-step explanation:

$x ---- 100%

$40 ------- 75% (this is because 25% of it's just 75% of the actual price)

[tex]75\cdot x = 100\cdot 40\\\\75x = 4000\\\\x=53.33[/tex]

Answer 2
Answer:  53.33 dollars

===============================================

Work Shown:

x = original price

25% = 25/100 = 0.25

25% of x = 0.25x = discount, or amount saved

final price = (original price) - (discount)

final price = (x) - (0.25x)

final price = 0.75x

0.75x = 40

x = 40/0.75

x = 53.333333

x = 53.33

The original price is $53.33

The discount, or amount saved, is 0.25*x = 0.25*53.33 = 13.3325 = 13.33 dollars.

This means the sale price is 53.33 - 13.33 = 40

We can also see this through computing 0.75*x = 0.75*53.33 = 39.9975 = 40, which matches with the given sale price.

Note how I'm rounding to the nearest penny when needed.

How many adults are in the supermarket?
pls answer quickly thanks :)

Answers

Answer: There are 75 Adults in the supermarket ask me why if you want a full on explanation. The full on reason of why it is 75 is because if you have a ratio of 1:5 and you now the one is for the kids and it is 15. Then you add 15 from 1 until you get to the 5th ratio. Hence, it brings you all the way to 75 adults. I hope this helped you, and anyone else

The population of a city is 51,000 and is decreasing at a rate of 1.75% per year. Use an exponential function to find the expected population in 5 years. Round to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer:

46,691

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Initial population, P = 51000

Decreasing rate = 1.75% = 0.0175

Time, t = 5 years

Using the relation :

A (t) = Po * ( 1 - r)^t

A(t) population after t years

Po = Initial population figure

r = rate of decrease

A(t) = 51000 * (1 - 0.0175)^5

A(t) = 51000 * (0.9825)^5

A(t) = 51000 * 0.91550937355400390625

A(t) = 46690.9780

Hence, population after 5 years will be : 46,691

complete the function table for the given domain and plot the points on the graph f(x)=(x-5)^2+1

Answers

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function

f(x) = (x-5)²+1

put x = 2

f(2) = (2-5)²+1 = (-3)²+1 = 9+1 = 10

put x = 3

f(3) = (3-5)²+1 = (-2)²+1 = 4+1 = 5

put x = 4

f(4) = (4-5)²+1 = (-1)²+1 = 1+1 = 2

put x = 5

f(5) = (5-5)²+1 = (0)²+1 = 0 + 1 = 1

put x = 6

f(5) = (6-5)²+1 = (1)²+1 = 1 + 1 = 2

Thus, the table wil be completed as:

x           2         3       4         5        6

f(x)         10        5       2         1        2
