Method 1: A pure algebraic approach

The unknown in this problem is the percent of decrease. A percent of decrease is the percentage of the original price that was deducted from the original price to obtain the sale price. We could write a "word equation" for this process like this:

original price - (percent of decrease)(original price) = sale price

Since the percent of decrease is the unknown in this problem, we'll call the percent of decrease x%.

Here's what we know so far:

The original price was $200

The sale price was $170

The percent of increase was x%

Putting this information in our word equation gives us an algebraic equation:

200 - (x%)(200) = 170

What do we do with the percent sign in this equation? "Percent" means "out of 100", so x% means x out of 100, or . Now we have this:

200 - (200) = 170

Now we'll solve our equation:

200 - (200) = 170

200 - 2x = 170

-2x = -30

x = 15

So the percent of decrease is 15%

Method 2: A method involving pure arithmetic.

If we know the original price and the sale price, we can find the percent of decrease in two steps:

Find the amount of decrease

Divide the amount of decrease by the original amount

This will give us the percent of decrease (written as a decimal number). We can then write the decimal as an equivalent percent to find our final answer.

Let's use method 2 on the same problem:

Frank bought a new television set on sale. If the TV's original price was $200 and Frank paid $170 for the TV, what was the percent of decrease?

First, let's find the amount of decrease:

Amount of decrease = 200 - 170 = 30

So the price decreased by $30.

Next, we'll find the percent of decrease, and rewrite the decimal answer as a percent:

Percent of decrease =  = = .15 = 15%

So the percent of decrease is 15%

Before we leave the problem, let's check our answer:

Original price = $200

Price reduced by 15% of original price = 200(.15) = $30

Sale price would then be = $200 - $30 = $170

Our answer checks. We're done!    Me not know if correct.

Answer:

  P(B) = 0.65

Step-by-step explanation:

The appropriate formula is ...

  P(A or B) = P(A) +P(B) -P(A and B)

Then P(B) is ...

  P(B) = P(A or B) +P(A and B) -P(A)

  P(B) = 0.8 +0.15 -0.3

  P(B) = 0.65

Answer:

0.8 miles in a minute, which would be 40 miles a hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

2/5 = 0.4

0.4 times 2 = 0.8

30 seconds times 2 = 60 seconds or 1 minute

60 times 0.8 = 40

60 times 1 minute = 60 minutes or 1 hour

40 miles in an hour or known as 40 miles a hour.

Answer:

Option 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of breakdowns of the photocopiers in year 2011,

A1 = 15

A2 = 21

B1 = 34

B2 = 32

B3 = 23

Option (1)

A1 had just under a half the number of breakdowns compared to photocopier B3.

Half of B3 = 12

And A1 = 15

Therefore, A1 > B3

So the statement is False.

Option (2)

A1 had just under 50% of the breakdowns compared to photocopier B2

50% of the breakdowns of B2 = 16

A1 = 15

So, A1 < 50% of B2

Statement (2) is True.

Option (3)

A1 had more than 25 extra breakdowns compared to B1.

A1= 15

B1 = 34

A1 < B1

Therefore, statement is False.

Option (4)

A1 had 6% less breakdowns than photocopier A2.

A1 = 15

A2 = 21

A2 - A1 = 21 - 15 = 6

Percentage less breakdowns = [tex]\frac{6}{21}\times 100[/tex] = 28.6%

So this Option is False.

Therefore, Option (2) is the correct option.

Sorry for the shadow.

Answer:

The are 8 dimes and 12 nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

1.We set n+d=20 because 20 is the total number of dimes and nickels in the jar.We have $0.05 n because for ever nickel,we earn $0.05.Adding this to the value of dimes,represented similarly by $0.1,then we set this to the amount of money we have in total,which is $1.40.

2.Subtract d from both sides of the first equation to get it by itself.Substitute-d for n in the second equation.The divide both sides by 0.5 to obtain the answer.

3.Substitute 8 in for d to obtain the value or n.

Answer:

  16.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the 5% was taken off of the already-discounted price, then the original price was multiplied by ...

  (1 -12%)(1 -5%) = 0.88×0.95 = 0.836 = 1 -16.4%

The total decrease was 16.4%.

Answer:

35*0.25= 8.75 (multiply by the discount converted into a decimal)

35- 8.75= 26.25  (subtract that from the original to find the discount price)

or

35* 0.75= 26.25 (multiply by the percentage of the original price that you bought the jeans at)

Step-by-step explanation:

either way the answer is $26.25 is the discounted price

99 + 99x = 0

Subtract 99 from both sides:

99x = -99

Divide both sides by 99

X = -1

Answer:

[tex]x = - 1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]99 + 99x = 0 \\ collecting \: like \: terms \\ 99x = - 99 \\ divide \: by \: 99 \: on \: both \: sides \\ \frac{99x}{99} = \frac{ - 99}{99} \\ x = - 1[/tex]

Answer:

Assuming that 126 is expressed in miles (mi), the answer is 72 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed is calculated using the following formula: distance/time.

Knowing that he travels 126 miles in 1 hour and 45 minutes, we obtain 126 miles divided by 1.75 = 72 mph.

Answer:

Not possible

Step-by-step explanation:

Given quadratic polynomial = x² + 2x + 3.

Possible factors of 3 are , 1 & 3 .

And we can get 2 from 3 and 1 in only one way that is 3 - 1 .

=> x² + 2x + 3 .

=> x² + 3x - x + 3 .

=> x ( x + 3 ) - 1 ( x - 3 )

Hence the factorisation is not possible .
