Answer:
thx lol
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the old price
X= 1200$
The price decreased 20% after 1 year to become price y :
Y= 0.8x
= 0.8 (1200)
= 960$
In the year after y also decreased 20% to be price y’:
Y’= 0.8y
= 0.8 (960)
= 768 $
The price y’ then decreased 20% to become price y’’:
Y’’ = 0.8 y’
= 0.8 (768)
= 614.4 $
Then the price will be 614.4 $ after 3 years
Answer:
$720
$360
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of couch be A and that of coffee table be B
Given couch and coffee table cost $1080
That’s
A + B = $1080
Also, the cost of couch A is 2 times the cost of coffeee table B.
That’s
A = 2B
We now have two equations
A + B = 1080
A = 2B
Now ,substitute 2B for A in the first equation .
We have
A + B = 1080
2B + B = 1080
3B = 1080
Divide both sides by 3
3B/3 = 1080/3
B = 360
The coffee table cost $360
Remember A = 2B
Therefore
A = 2 x $360
A = $720
The couch cost $720 while the coffee table cost $360
Answer:
92 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume the garden has the shape shown below.
The length of fencing equals the distance around three sides of the rectangle plus that around the semicircle.
1. Around the rectangle
Distance = 28 ft + 14 ft + 28 ft = 70 ft
2. Around the semicircle
For a circle.
C = 2πr
For the semicircle,
½C =½(2πr) = πr
D = 14 ft, so
r = 7 ft
3. Total distance
Distance = 70 ft + 22 ft = 92 ft
Jordan will need 92 ft of fencing.
Answers:
hypotenuse = 20 feet
longer leg = 16 feet
======================================================
Explanation:
c = x = length of the hypotenuse
a = x-4 = length of one of the legs
b = 12 = length of the other leg
Use the pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
12^2 + (x-4)^2 = (x)^2
144 + x^2 - 8x + 16 = x^2
144 - 8x + 16 = 0 .... the x^2 terms cancel
160-8x = 0
160 = 8x
8x = 160
x = 160/8
x = 20 is the hypotenuse
x-4 = 20-4 = 16 is the longer leg
--------
Check:
12^2+16^2 = 144+256 = 400
20^2 = 400
Since 12^2+16^2 = 20^2 is true, this means we have a right triangle with legs of 12 and 16, while the hypotenuse is 20. The answer is confirmed.
