A skateboard that sells for $65 is on sale for 15% off. Find the sale price?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: original price:          $65        
discount:         15% off        
sale price:         ?        

There are two ways you can solve this problem:

Here's the longer way (by one step):
65 * .15 (15% in decimal form) = 9.75
65 - 9.75 = 55.25
sale price = $55.25

Here's the method that's one step shorter:
65 * .85 (100-15 ~ because it's 15%[15/100] off) = 55.25
sale price = $55.25

Either way works for solving discounts/sales. 


Answer 2
Answer: The skateboard now sells for 55.25. Hope this helps.

An expression is shown below. What is the product of the two factors ?

Answers

Answer:  The required product is x^2.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the product of the following two factors.

P=(x^(4)/(3))(x^(2)/(3)).

We will be using the following property of exponents:

a^x* a^y=a^(x+y).

We have

P\n\n=(x^(4)/(3))(x^(2)/(3))\n\n=x^(4+2)/(3)\n\n=x^(6)/(3)\n\n=x^2.

Thus, the required product is x^2.

Simplify the expression....
you have...
( x^{ (4)/(3) } )( x^{ (2)/(3) } )
simplifying it...
x^(2)
The product of the two factors....
Thus, your answer. 

Find the average distance each data value in the set is from the mean.Model years of used cars:2010, 2002, 2005 , 2007, 2001

Answers

To find the mean, you have to add all of the data together and divide by the amount of data sets there are. 2010+2002+2005+2007+2001=10025
10025 divided by 5 sets of data is 2005.
The mean or average is 2005

Adding 8 to both sides, we get

2n=18

so n=9

Hope this helped!!

Answer:
