A pair of pants was on sale for 40% off. The sale price of the pants was $18.00. What was the original price of the pants?

The original price of the pants was $30.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be equal to the original price of the pants.

Because the pants are 40% off, their final price was 60% of the original price. 60% as a decimal is 0.6. Using this information, we can set up the following equation and solve:

0.6x=18

Divide both sides by 0.6

0.6x/0.6=18/0.6

x=30

I hope this helps!

answer: c, the green line

step-by-step explanation:

there is no black line, eliminate b.

simple interest implies periodic payments, but the red line shows no payments, eliminate d.

simple interest has equal payments. if paid say every day, the graph is about a straight line (actually a stairstep).

the yellow line is not straight, eliminate a.

check: the green line is straight, answer is c.

simple interest with positive interest rate gives a straight line sloping up to the right. green line:

g(t) = $100 + ($200-$100) ÷ (20 years) × (t years)

= $100 + (4%/year) × ($100)(t years)

incidentally, the yellow line curving upward represents continuously compounded interest

y = $100 × 2^(t years / (14 assuming the yellow line hits $200 at 14 years. 2^0 is 1, so y(0) = $100; 2^(14/14) is 2, so y(14) = $200.

with btw u said 100pts but it clearly says

i answerd and just got 10pts

no hate
