HELPP PLEASE FAST!! a store has televisions on sale for 20% off the original price. The original price of a television is 150 before the sale what will be the sale price of the television set
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.

In a right-angled triangle
, one acute angle is 30°. Find the other acute angle
VII CLASS MATHEMATICS
Answer:
60°
Step-by-step explanation:
sum of all angles is 180
and it's a right-angled triangle so there is angle = 90
so the other acute angle = 180-30-90=60°
Answer:
60
Step-by-step explanation:
90+30= 120
180-120= 60

What is the present value of ₱30,000 due in 27 months at 3% compounded annually?
Answer:
32,063.06
Step-by-step explanation:
the formula for compound interest: [tex]A = P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt\\}[/tex]
so to use this you are essentially solving for a.
p is the principle (or initial) amount deposited.
r is the rate (in percent)
n is the number of time periods compounded (like annually, monthly, weekly, or daily)
t is the time period (in years)
In this instance the formula looks like: [tex]A = 30,000(1+\frac{0.03}{1})^{1*2.25}[/tex]
You then solve for A using the formula. It is important to remember to use the order of operations

Write 2 equations needed to solve this problem
Answer:
x = - 8, x = - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
8 | x + 7 | - 3 = 5 ( add 3 to both sides )
8 | x + 7 | = 8 ( divide both sides by 8 )
| x + 7 | = 1
The expression inside the bars can be positive or negative, thus
x + 7 = 1 or - (x + 7) = 1 ← 2 equations to be solved
x + 7 = 1 ( subtract 7 from both sides )
x = - 6
or
-(x + 7) = 1
- x - 7 = 1 ( add 7 to both sides )
- x = 8 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
x = - 8

What is the value of x in the solution of the system?
x + y = 3
y = -6x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 3 ---------------- eqn 1
y = -6x + 3 ------------- eqn 2
Substitute y for -6x + 3 in equation 1
x + -6x + 3 = 3
x - 6x + 3 = 3
-5x + 3 = 3
Collect like terms
-5x = 3 - 3
-5x = 0
Divide both sides by -5
x = 0
Hope this helped!
