An electronics store has a clearance sale
whereby everything in store is marked down
by 20% of the original price. Jay buys a
Bluetooth speaker with an original price of
R950.00. When he gets to the till, the cashier
lets him know that the speaker is marked
down a further 8% on the reduced price.
i. How much will Jay pay for the speaker?
ii. What is the final discount percentage Jay
gets off the original price?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

i. R699. 2

ii. 26.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

First discount (on original price) = 20%

Second discount (on reduced price) = 8%

Original price = R950.00

*To find how much Jay will pay*

First discount;

[tex] Discount = \frac {20}{100} * 950[/tex]

[tex] Discount = 0.2 * 950[/tex]

Discount = R190.00

Reduced price = 950 - 190

Reduced price = R760.00

Second discount;

[tex] Discount = \frac {8}{100} * 760[/tex]

[tex] Discount = 0.08 * 760[/tex]

Discount = R60.8

Selling price = 760 - 60.8

Selling price = R699.2

Therefore, Jay will pay R699.2 for the speaker.

ii. To find the final discount percentage;

[tex] Percent \; discount = \frac {original \;price - selling \; price}{original price} * 100[/tex]

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex] Percent \; discount = \frac {950 - 699.2}{950} * 100[/tex]

[tex] Percent \; discount = \frac {250.8}{950} * 100[/tex]

[tex] Percent \; discount = 0.264* 100[/tex]

Percent discount = 26.4%

Therefore, the final discount percentage Jay gets off the original price is 26.4%.

In a group of 50 children, 11 cannot swim. What percentage can swim?

Answers

Answer:

78% of the children can swim

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 50 children, 11 of them cannot swim. The fraction of children that cannot swim is 11/50. We have to change that into a percentage.

11/50 x 2 will equal our percentage

11 x 2 = 22

50 x 2 = 100

22/100 or 22%

We have the percentage of the children who cannot swim, now we have to find the percentage of children who can swim.

100% - 22% = 78%

Input in standard form the equation of the given line. The line that passes through (-3, 5) and (-2, -6)

Answers

Answer:

The equation in standard form is 11x + y = -28.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start with y = mx + b

5 = -3m + b

-6 = -2m + b

Let's take the second less the first.

m = -11

Plug back in the first equation to calculate b.

5 = 33 + b

b = -28

So y = -11x - 28

11x + y = -28

Answers

Answer:

x  = 50 mph        speed of the bus

y  = 75  mph       speed of the train

Step-by-step explanation:

Lt´s call  "x" speed of bus   and  "y" speed of train.

According to the problem statement

6*x  =  4*y                   (1)

y  =  x  + 25                 (2)

We solve for x and y the two equation system

y = ( 6/4)*x

( 6/4)*x  =  x  +  25

6*x = 4*x + 100

2*x  = 100

x  = 50 mph

And

y  =  (6/4)*x

y  = 300/4

y  = 75 mh

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of ways in which the word 'PHILOSOPHY' can be arranged is 453,600.

What is a factorial?

The product of a whole number 'n' with every whole number until 1 is called the factorial. The factorial of 4 is, for example, 43221, which equals 24.

As we can see that the word 'PHILOSOPHY' has 10 letters therefore, the letters of the word can be arranged in the 10! manner, but it contains the letter P, H and O twice therefore, there will be words that will look the same and are counted twice. Thus, the number of ways the word PHILOSOPHY can be arranged are,

[tex]\text{Number of ways} = \dfrac{10!}{2! \times 2! \times 2!} = 453,600[/tex]

Hence, the number of ways in which the word 'PHILOSOPHY' can be arranged is 453,600.
