Answer:
the original price of the book is $20
Step-by-step explanation:
sometimes in a question, they put things in the question that don't actually help us get to the answer. usually we ignore it, but i'm going to list them out just to help you a bit more.
Things that are useless:
his name is Jarred (his name could be gary, it doesn't affect us getting the answer)he went to a bookstore (he could've gone to the library, it wont affect us getting to the answer)the book is softcover (it could be any type of book, wont affect us getting to the answer)the item is a book (it could be anything that he bought, wont affect us getting to the answer.)Things that are helpful:
the book was on sale (helps us know that the price was reduced)the book was on sale 10% (helps us know how much it was reduced by)he spent $18 for the reduced price (helps us know how much he spent)Ok, now that we know those, let's work on the question.
let b be the original book price
we need to find 10% so we have to use 90% (because 100 - 10 = 90)
if we needed to find 20% we would use 80% (because 100 - 20 = 80)
and so on.
90% of b = 18 (90% of the og. book price equals 18)
90/100 × b = 18 (write a correct equation and make the percent a fraction)
9/10 × b = 18 (simplify both sides of the equation)
9 × b = 180 (multiply both sides of the equation to get rid of fraction)
b = 20 (divide both sides of the equ. to get b by itself)
the original price of the book is $20
hope this helped :D

The amount of workers varies inversely with the time, in days, to complete a project. Five workers can complete a certain project in 24 days. How many workers will be needed to complete the project in 15 days?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of days has gone down by a factor of 15/24. The number of workers is inversely proportional, so must increase by a factor of 24/15 = 8/5.
(5 workers) × (8/5) = 8 workers
8 workers are needed to complete the project in 15 days.
What is the volume of the tank?
Answer:
find the area of the base which is as circle
Base area = pi * R^2 = 3.14 * 400 = 1256

Solve for x:
y = a + cx
Answer:
[tex]\large{x=\frac{y-a}{c}}[/tex]
Simplified
[tex]\large{x=\frac{y}{c}-\frac{a}{c}}[/tex]
You can either choose simplified or the first one. Both solutions work.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we have to isolate x-term.
[tex]\large{y=a+cx}[/tex]
This form of equation is called "Literal Equation" where y-term is currently isolated. Now we are going to isolate x-term by subtracting both sides by a-term.
[tex]\large{y-a=a+cx-a}\\\large{y-a=cx}[/tex]
We can say that we simply move the term to the another side and change the sign to the opposite (From plus to minus)
The next thing we are going to do is to divide the whole equation by c-term. Remember, we do not just divide y-term or a-term. We divide the whole expression.
[tex]\large{\frac{y-a}{c}=\frac{cx}{c}}\\\large{\frac{y-a}{c}=x}[/tex]
Finally, the x-term is isolated and thus been solved.
The form of [tex]\large{\frac{y-a}{c}}[/tex] can be simplified to [tex]\large{\frac{y}{c}-\frac{a}{c}}[/tex]
Answer:
x = [tex]\frac{y-a}{c}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
subtract 'a' first
divide by 'c' second

What does a quadratic equation look like?
Answer:
[tex]a{x}^{2} + bx + c = 0[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
A quadratic equation is an equation of the second degree, meaning it contains at least one term that is squared. The standard form is ax² + bx + c = 0 with a, b, and c being constants, or numerical coefficients, and x is an unknown variable. One absolute rule is that the first constant "a" cannot be a zero.
Examples of quadratic equations include all of these:[tex]y = {x}^{2} + 3x + 1[/tex]

Options 2nd, 3rd and 4th are correct options.
What are similar objects?Two objects are similar if they have the same shape, or one has the same shape as the mirror image of the other.
Given that, Quadrilateral ABCD is similar to quadrilateral A'B'C'D'.
As we know, in similar objects, the ratio of corresponding sides are equal.
Therefore, AB/A'B' = BC/B'C' = CD/C'D' = AD/A'D'

If the volume of the polyhedron is 147π in^3, the value of x is ___ cm.
Answer:
x = 6.44 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Volume, V = 147π in³
Height, h = 9 cm = 3.54 in
We need to find the value of x. The formula of this polyhedron is given by :
[tex]V=\pi r^2 h\\\\r=\sqrt{\dfrac{V}{\pi h}} \\\\r=\sqrt{\dfrac{147\pi }{\pi \times 3.54}} \\\\r=6.44\ in[/tex]
or
r = 16.35 cm
So, the value of x is equal to 6.44 cm.

A quality control expert at Glotech computers wants to test their new monitors. The production manager claims they have a mean life of 95 months with a standard deviation of 5 months. If the claim is true, what is the probability that the mean monitor life would be greater than 96.3 months in a sample of 84 monitors
Answer:
The probability that the mean monitor life would be greater than 96.3 months in a sample of 84 monitors
P(X⁻ ≥ 96.3) = 0.0087
Step-by-step explanation:
Step(i):-
Given that the mean of the Population = 95
Given that the standard deviation of the Population = 5
Let 'X' be the random variable in a normal distribution
Let X⁻ = 96.3
Given that the size 'n' = 84 monitors
Step(ii):-
The Empirical rule
[tex]Z = \frac{x^{-} -mean}{\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{96.3 - 95}{\frac{5}{\sqrt{84} } }[/tex]
Z = 2.383
The probability that the mean monitor life would be greater than 96.3 months in a sample of 84 monitors
P(X⁻ ≥ 96.3) = P(Z≥2.383)
= 1- P( Z<2.383)
= 1-( 0.5 -+A(2.38))
= 0.5 - A(2.38)
= 0.5 -0.4913
= 0.0087
Final answer:-
The probability that the mean monitor life would be greater than 96.3 months in a sample of 84 monitors
P(X⁻ ≥ 96.3) = 0.0087

Step-by-step explanation:
Most water-treatment facilities monitor the quality of their drinking water on an hourly basis. One variable monitored is pH, which measures the degree of alkalinity of acidity in the water. A pH below 7.0 is acidic, one above 7.0 is alkaline, and a pH is 7.0 is neutral. One water-treatment plant has a target pH of 8.5. The mean and standard deviation of 1 hour's test results, based on 17 water samples at this plant, are 8.42 and 0.16, respectively. (a) Set up the null and alternative hypotheses to test whether the mean pH value mu of the water from the plant differs from 8.5. (b) What test statistic should be used based on the available sample information
Answer:
a) The null hypothesis is [tex]H_{0}: \mu = 8.5[/tex] and the alternate hypothesis is [tex]H_{a}: \mu \neq 8.5[/tex]
b) A test statistic of -2.06 should be used.
Step-by-step explanation:
Question a:
One water-treatment plant has a target pH of 8.5.
At the null hypothesis, we test if the mean is close to the target. So, the null hypothesis is:
[tex]H_{0}: \mu = 8.5[/tex]
At the alternate hypothesis, we test if it differs from 8.5, so the alternate hypothesis is:
[tex]H_{a}: \mu \neq 8.5[/tex]
Question b:
The test statistic is:
[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.
8.5 is tested at the null hypothesis:
This means that [tex]\mu = 8.5[/tex]
The mean and standard deviation of 1 hour's test results, based on 17 water samples at this plant, are 8.42 and 0.16, respectively.
This means that [tex]n = 17, X = 8.42, \sigma = 0.16[/tex]
Value of the test statistic:
[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
[tex]z = \frac{8.42 - 8.5}{\frac{0.16}{\sqrt{17}}}[/tex]
[tex]z = -2.06[/tex]
A test statistic of -2.06 should be used.

studied in an experiment. Which of these is most likely to be an extraneous
factor that could also affect test scores?
A. Student clothing
B. Color of the school hallways
C. Principal of the school
D. Length of class period
Answer:D
Step-by-step explanation:
The effect of the time of day a science class is taught on test scores being studied in an experiment will be the length of the class period. The correct option is D.
What is a test analysis?
A test score is a piece of data, typically a number, that describes how well a test-taker performed. It is "a summary of the evidence contained in an examinee's replies to the test items that are connected to the construct or constructs being tested," according to one formal definition.
Given that the effect of the time of day a science class is taught on test scores is being studied in an experiment.
The time of the class periods is affected by the length of the class period. The length of the class period of one subject should be optimum so that students get the concepts easily without getting bored.
Therefore, an effect of the time of day a science class is taught on test scores being studied in an experiment will be the length of the class period. The correct option is D.
