A6-pound watermelon costs $2.40 before a 30% discount. what equation would allow you to find the discounted price of the watermel on?

$1.68.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a 6-pound watermelon costs $2.40 before a 30% discount.

The cost of watermelon after the discount will be original price of watermelon minus 30% of the price of watermelon.

We can represent this information in an equation as:

Therefore, the discounted price of watermelon is $1.68.

answer: the answer is one of

step-by-step explanation:   we are given to write a proper fraction where the whole is divided into an even number of equal parts less than ten, and an odd number of those parts exist.

an even number less than 10 may be one of 2, 4, 6 or 8. so, the whole may be one of these four evens.

now, an odd number of these parts must exist, so the numerator must be an odd number, one of 1, 3, 5 or 7. it cannot be 9 because then the fraction will become improper.

thus, our fraction may be one of the following

x is greater than 5

step-by-step explanation:

2x+7 is greater than 17

    -7                           -7

2x is greater than 10

divide by 2 each side

x is greater than 5
