A company charges a restocking fee on returned items. Customers must pay a fee of 5% of the cost of the returned item. (a)
Part A
Which equation represents the amount a customer pays, p, in dollars, when returning an item that cost c dollars?
A c=0.05p
p = (1 - 0.05)
p=0.05c
p = (1+0.05)

Part B

(b) 240

step-by-step explanation:

first, we use the pythagorean formula using the given side lengths to find x. then we use x to find the side lengths. then we add the side lengths to find the perimeter.

pythagorean theorem formula:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(x - 20)^2 + (x - 40)^2 = x^2

x^2 - 40x + 400 + x^2 - 80x + 1600 = x^2

x^2 -120x + 2000 = 0

(x - 100)(x - 20) = 0

x - 100 = 0 or x - 20 = 0

x = 100 or x = 20

we see that the solution x = 20 must be discarded because it will give a negative side length and a side length of 0. the only valid solution is x = 100.

perimeter = sum of the lengths of the sides

perimeter = x + x - 20 + x - 40

perimeter = 3x - 60

replace x with 100.

perimeter = 3(100) - 60

perimeter = 300 - 60

perimeter = 240

the answer is 54 sq. ft. i just did this question, on odyssey ware, and it was right. make brainliest.

step-by-step explanation:

simple you would first have to get   a negative number where as 1 to be multiplied by 24 and then you would have to multiply 6 time 4 and then repeat that process until you reach your term
