b
The sale was for a 76% increase.

c
The sale was for a 76% decrease.

d
The sale was for a 43% increase.

a

The sale was for a 43% decrease.

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the percent off of the coat during the sale is shown below:

Regular price is $35.25

And, in the sale the price is $19.99

So, the percent off would be

= ($35.25 - $19.99) ÷ ($19.99)

= 43% decrease

hence, the percent off of the coat during the sale is 43% decrease

Therefore the correct option is a.

And, all the other options are incorrect

question 1 is 8, question 2 is 9, question 3 is 24

step-by-step explanation:

now, the numbers they give you at the top are the key. from there, you just have to plug and chug! let's try 1, 2, and 3!

key: a=3, b=5, c=6

1. a+5

remember, a=3, so we plug that in to get 3+5=8

2. 15-c

c=6, so we plug that in to get 15-6=9

3. 4b

b=6, so we plug it in to get 4*6=24

time to try the rest on your own! if you put the answers below in a comment, i'll check them for you!

you probably already have the answer but anyways it's b. 15.0
