Apair of jeans cost $34.00. you have a coupon for 30% off the regular price. what is the sale price of the jeans after you use your coupon?

$23.80

Step-by-step explanation:

The price would be 30% LESS than the original tag price of $34.

First we need to find 30% of 34 and then subtract it from original price (34).

To get percentage, we divide 30 by 100 and then multiply by 34:

30% = 30/100 = 0.3

0.3 * 34 = 10.2

Now we subtract:

$34 - $10.20 = $23.8

The sale price = $23.80

john earns $14.00 for two hours of work.

step-by-step explanation:

a drawing really does here:

so i draw the horizontal line y=2 and the vertical line x=-2 at this intersection i put b (this is where my right angle is going to be).   so point b is at (-2,2).   point a is 5 units long and is also on y=2 so this point has to be (3,2) or (-7,2) -doesn't matter i will go with (3,2).

now we know c is at (-2,y) we don't know the y yet bet we know that c is on x=-2.

we have the area of the triangle is .5bh=12.5

we know the base length is 5 (ab)

we have the height is (2-y) if you look at your

plug in

.5(5)(2-y)=12.5

solve for y to get the y-coordinate for c

2.5(2-y)=12.5

divide both sides by 2.5 giving:

2-y=5

now subtract 2 on both sides

-y=3

y=-3
