Answer:

7/24

Step-by-step explanation:

All the items being grilled collectively equal 1.

Each item represents a fractional portion of 1.

Combine 3/8 and 1/3, then subtract that sum from 1.

3/8 + 1/3 = 9/24 + 8/24 = 17/24

This means that veggie burgers and corn contribute to 17/24 of the total.

To determine the fraction accounted for by mushrooms, we take 1 and subtract 17/24.

1 - 17/24 = 24/24 - 17/24 = 7/24.

Final answer: 7/24

A department store sells logo shirts at an original price of $20. Every month that a shirt doesn’t sell, the store reduces the s
Inessa [12570]

Answer: Macy's pre-tax shirt price is $5.63

Step-by-step explanation:

Details:

Original cost = 20

sale price drops by 25% every month it remains unsold.


First markdown month:

20 * (100%-25%) = 20 * 75% = 15


Second markdown month:

15 * 75% = 11.25


Macy, being an employee, enjoys a 50% discount on the current price.

11.25 * 50% = 5.625

11.25 - 5.625 = 5.625 or rounded to 5.63

Hope this helps!:)

Jacque needs to buy some pizzas for a party at her office. She's ordering from a restaurant that charges a \$7.50$7.50dollar sig
Svet_ta [12734]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Delivery charge = $7.50

Cost per pizza = $14

Budgeted total = $60

7.50 + 14p < 60

First, subtract 7.50 from both sides

14p < 60 - 7.50

14p < 52.50

Now divide both sides by 14

p < 52.50 / 14

p < 3.75

Each pizza consists of 8 slices

Therefore, the total number of slices she can buy = 3.75 × 8

= 30 slices

Which transformations can be used to carry ABCD onto itself? The point of rotation is (3, 2). Check all that apply.
Leona [12618]

Both A and B.

This is due to the fact that X=3 cleanly divides the rectangle into two equal halves, causing any reflection to resemble the original shape.

Additionally, any shape with two lines of symmetry, when rotated 180 degrees, will align with one of the axes of symmetry and appear the same as the original shape.
