If everything in a store is 20% off, and the discounted price of an item is $18.00, what is
the regular price?

Answers

Answer 1

The regular price is $22.5 if everything in a store is 20% off, and the discounted price of an item is $18.00

What is the percentage?

It's the ratio of two integers stated as a fraction of a hundred parts. It is a metric for comparing two sets of data, and it is expressed as a percentage using the percent symbol.

We have:

If everything in a store is 20% off, and the discounted price of an item is $18.00

Let's suppose the regular price is x

(100-20)% of x = 18

80x/100 = 18

x = $22.5

Thus, the regular price is $22.5 if everything in a store is 20% off, and the discounted price of an item is $18.00

Evergreen Landscaping bought 4 tons of topsoil and 3 tons of mulch for $1460. The next week the
firm bought 5 tons of topsoil and 2 tons of mulch for $1391. Find the price per ton for each item.

Answers

Answer:  The price per ton of topsoil is $179

and price per ton of mulch is $248.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let price of 1 ton of topsoil be x

and price 1 ton of mulch be y

According to question

4x + 3y = $1460   -(i)

and 5x + 2y = $1391    -(ii)

Now solving these linear equations

By multiply (i) equation with 5 and divide it by 4

we get 5x + [tex]\frac{15}{4}[/tex]y = $1825  -(iii)

Subtract equation (ii) from equation (iii)

5x +[tex]\frac{15}{4}[/tex] y - 5x - 2y = $1825-$1391

[tex]\frac{7}{4}[/tex]y=$434

y = $434х[tex]\frac{4}{7}[/tex] = $248

put value of y in equation (i)

4x + 3($248) = $1460

4x - $744 =$1460

4x = $716

x = $179

The price per ton of topsoil is $179

the price per ton of mulch is $248.

Describe in detail how you created and labeled this number line, and what it looks like in detail. (5 points)


Part B: Determine whether Daniel or Libby owes the bank more. Use absolute values and inequalities to write statements that justify your conclusion. (5 points)

Answers

Answer:

Using the concept of number line, we find that Libby owes more than Daniel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the account balance of Daniel is -$1.25 and of Libby is -$2.00. Sandra has as much savings in her account as the amount Daniel owes the bank. So, her account balance is +$1.25.

The numbers to be plotted on the number line are -2.00, -1.25 and 1.25.

The number line is in the attachment.

These numbers are related as: -2 < -1.25 < 1.25.

From the number line, all the names that come left to the origin owe some amount to the bank while all the names that come right to the origin have some money as savings in their account.

Clearly, Daniel and Libby owe the bank.

But since Libby comes before Daniel, Libby owes more than Daniel.

Answers

Answer:

d.

Step-by-step explanation:

Left line is defined when x < 1 (x is less than 1). The point is not full and that means that x = 1 is not included.

Right line is defined when x is greater or equal to one x ≥ 1.

Options that have x < 1 and x ≥ 1 are b and d, so the answer is one of those.

Equations of the lines are in slope-intercept form y = mx + b, where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

Right line has steeper slope than left line, so the slope of right line will have bigger absolute value. That is the case with option d. (Left line has slope -1 and right one has slope -2, absolute value of right slope is bigger.)

You could also check with y-intercepts. Left line has y-intercept at y = 2 and left line is defined when x < 1. Only option d meets these conditions.

The law of cosines is a² + b² - 2abcosC = c². Find the value of 2abcosC.
A. 20
B. 40
C. 37
D. -40​

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 4

b = 5

c = 2

C = arccos((a² + b² - c²) / 2ab)

C = arccos((16 + 25 - 4) / 2(4)(5))

C = arccos(37 / 40)

C = 22.33°

2abcosC

2(4)(5)cos(22.33)

40(0.925)

37

Option C is correct, if the law of cosines is a² + b² - 2abcosC = c² then the value of 2abcosC is 37.

What is Trigonometry?

Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that studies relationships between side lengths and angles of triangles.

We have from law of cosines that a² + b² - 2abcosC = c²

We have to find the value of 2abcosC.

Now let us find the value of C

C = arccos((a² + b² - c²) / 2ab)

C = arccos((16 + 25 - 4) / 2(4)(5))

C = arccos(37 / 40)

C = 22.33°

Now plug in the value of C in  2abcosC.

2abcosC

=2(4)(5)cos(22.33)

=40(0.925)

=37

Hence, option C is correct, if the law of cosines is a² + b² - 2abcosC = c² then the value of 2abcosC is 37.

At school B, 108 year 8 students study French.
This is 60% of the year group.
How many students do not study French in year 8 in school B?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

108 = 60%

1% = 60%/60 = 108/60 = 1.8

100% = 1%×100 = 1.8×100 = 180

how many do not study French ?

the remainder of the students. that is 40% (100% - 60%) or 72 students (40×1.8 or simply 180-108).

Answer:

72 students do not study French.

Step-by-step explanation:

60% = 108 students

1. 108 ÷ 60 = 1.8 ( this is to find 1% of the students)

2. 1.8(1%) × 40 = 72

To check the answer:

108 + 72 = 180

The Rainbow Motor Motel is a 50-room facility with a restaurant to accommodate its guests.

On the average, 98% of the rooms are available for sale. For the year just ended, the actual number of rooms sold totaled 15,000 and the number of guests for the year totaled 20,000. The projected occupancy rate for the next year is 82% of the available rooms based on past experience. The food information is as follows:

Sales $150,000, Beg Inventory 8,000, Purchases $70,000, Ending Inventory, $ 13,000 Consumption by employees (free of charge) $3,000, Number of checks 64,139. Cost of sales ?

Answers

From the information given, the cost of sales is $65,000. See the explanation below.

What is the definition of cost of sales?

Add your initial inventory to the purchases made over the time period, remove that amount from your ending inventory, and that is your cost of sales.

Cost of Sales = (Bi + P) - Ei

Where Bi is Beginning Inventory

P is Purchases; and

Ei is Ending Inventory.

So the derivation of the solution above is?

Beginning Inventory = 8,000

(add)          Purchase = 70,000

Bi + P                          = 78,000

Ending Inventory  = 13,000

Cost of sales = 78,000 - 13,000

= $65,000

y = 1/2x + 4

y = 2x + 8

y = 2x + 4

y = -1/2x + 8

Answers

Answer:

y = 2x + 8

Explanation:

Equation: y = 2x - 4

Comparing it with slope intercept form "y = mx + b" where 'm' is slope and 'b' is y-intercept. This function has slope: 2 and y intercept of -4

Parallel lines has same slope.

Passes through (-2, 4)

[tex]\sf y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)[/tex]

[tex]\sf y - 4 = 2(x - (-2))[/tex]

[tex]\sf y - 4 = 2(x + 2)[/tex]

[tex]\sf y = 2x + 4 + 4[/tex]

[tex]\sf y = 2x + 8[/tex]

Answer: y = 2x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a fairly simple problem. I hope this helps!

So, to find a line parallel, it's simple, and it only requires that for the other line to have the same slope and a different y-intercept (or same "m" and different "b" in the equation y = mx + b).

To find a line parallel to a point is slightly harder, but don't worry, I'll teach you how.

To do this, we have to recognize the point. The point given is (-2, 4) where -2 is the x-value and 4 is the y-value. Remember, points always go by (x, y).

So, we set y to 4, and we set x to -2.

When testing out lines that are parallel to a point, you must always be careful that you end up with the same value. Such as 4 = 4 or 8 = 8, etcetera.

We get:

4 = 2 × (-2) + 8

Simplifying, we get:

4 = -4 + 8

Adding -4 to 8, we get 4:

4 = 4

Thus, y = 2x + 8 is parallel to the point (-2, 4)

find value o x 235 degree arc

Answers

The length of the arc given in the question is; 4.1r

How to find the length of an arc?

We are given;

Angle at which arc is subtended; θ = 235°

Formula for arc length subtended at an angle θ is;

Arc Length = (θ/360) * 2πr

where r is radius of circle.

Thus;

Arc Length = (235/360)  * 2πr

Arc Length = 4.1r

The complete question is;

Find the value of the length of an arc that subtends an angle of 235 degrees to the circle's center.

Value of x or y so that the line through the points has the given slope:

(X,9) and (9,-3), slope is -6/7

Sorry if it’s not worded great.

Answers

If we want the slope to be -6/7, then the value of x must be -5.

How to find the value of x?

Remember that if a linear equation passes through (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂), then the slope is:

[tex]a = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

Here we have the points (x, 9) and (9, -3), and the slope must be -6/7, so we need to solve:

[tex]\frac{- 3 - 9}{9 - x} = \frac{-6}{7} \\\\\frac{-12}{9 - x} = \frac{-12}{14}[/tex]

Where on the second line we multiplied and divided the right fraction by 2.

Comparing the fractions, we see that we must have:

9 -x = 14

9 - 14 = x

-5 = x

So the value of x must be -5.
