A local department store is going out of business and is selling every item for 40% off the original price. The discount will be taken at the register. Gene buys 2 pairs of shorts for $18.77 each, one polo shirt for $21.87, and a pair of shoes for $34.24. Gene wants to know approximately how much he will pay.

A) use your own words to describe the big-picture ideas in the scenario.

B) use your own words to list out each important detail in the scenario.

C) Estimate (round first) what Gene will pay for the items after the discount is taken.

1/3 + 1/3 ≠ 2/6 because 1/3 alone = 2/6  

step by step explanation:

1/3 + 1/3 = 2/3       2/3=4/6

x =-.20752

step-by-step explanation:

4^(x+2)=12

4^(x+2)=12

take the log base 4 on each side

log 4 (4^(x+2) = log 4(12)

we know log b(a^y) = y log b (a)

(x+2) log 4(4) = log 4 (12)

x+2 = log 4 (12)

we know   logb c = loga c/loga b

we want to convert to base 10   so a = 10

by default, we do not write the 10   c = 4   and b = 10

log4 10 = log 12/log 4

log4 10 = log 12/ log 4

x+2 = log 12/ log 4

subtract 2 from each side

x +2 -2 = log 12/ log 4 -2

x = 1.79248125 -2

x =-.20752

6x = 48

i hope this . 6 cards each and a total of $48. dvide each side by 6 and you will have your answer.
