Wendy is looking over some data regarding the strength, measured in Pascals (Pa), of some rope and how the strength relates to the number of woven strands in the rope. The data are represented by the exponential function f(x) = 2x, where x is the number of woven strands. Explain how she can convert this equation to a logarithmic function when strength is 256 Pascals.

Since 15% of $60 is $9, that means you increase your $60 by $9, so you now have $69. Notice that we did this calculation in two steps: first we multiplied $60 by 0.15 to find 15% of $60, then we added this amount to our original $60. Explain why it makes sense that increasing $60 by 15% can also be accomplished in one step by multiplying $60 times 1.15. 3) Suppose you have $60 and want to decrease this amount by 15%. Since 15% of $60 is $9, that means you will decrease your $60 by $9, so you now have $51.

Does this mean you get the jacket for free? Let's really think about what would happen at the checkout. First, the teller would scan the price tag on the jacket, and the computer would show the price is $100. After the teller scans the first coupon, the computer will take 10% off of $100, and show the price is $90. (Right? Think about why this is.) Then after the teller scans the second coupon, the computer will take 10% off of $90.
