A menswear store is having a sale: "Buy one shirt at full price and get another shirt for 20% off." If Charlie buys two shirts, each with a regular price of $49, how much money will he save?
| 17 | |
| $24.50 | |
| $9.80 | |
| $12.25 |
By buying two shirts, Charlie will save $49 x \( \frac{20}{100} \) = \( \frac{$49 x 20}{100} \) = \( \frac{$980}{100} \) = $9.80 on the second shirt.
What is the next number in this sequence: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, __________ ?
| -1 | |
| 2 | |
| 6 | |
| 14 |
The equation for this sequence is:
an = an-1 + 1
where n is the term's order in the sequence, an is the value of the term, and an-1 is the value of the term before an. This makes the next number:
a6 = a5 + 1
a6 = 5 + 1
a6 = 6
