A store is having a sale in which all items
are discounted 20%. Including tax, Colin paid $21 for a picture. If the
sales tax rate is 5%, what was the original price of the picture?

Answers

Answer 1

In linear equation,  that price of shorts before discount was $25

What in mathematics is a linear equation?

An x-y linear relationship, or two variables in which the value of one of them (often y) relies on the value of the other one, is what is known as a linear equation in two variables (usually x).The dependent variable in this scenario is y since it depends on the independent variable, x.

Assume that the price of shorts after the discount is x

Total payment = price of shorts + taxes

We know that:

total payment = $21

taxes = 5% = 0.05 of the price

This means that:

21 = x + 0.05x

21 = 1.05x

x = $20

Therefore, the price of the shorts is $20 after the discount

Now, we will get the price of the shorts before the discount:

Assume that the price of shorts before discount is y

We know that:

The discount was 20%

This means that Jennifer paid:

100% - 20% = 80% of the price of the shorts

Therefore:

80% of the price = $20

0.8y = 20

y = $25

This means that price of shorts before discount was $25.

If three points a, b, and c lie on the same line, then b is between a and c if and only if the distance from a to c is equal to the sum of the distances from a to b and from b to c. Write an absolute value equation to represent the definition of betweenness.

Answers

The absolute value equation to represent the definition of betweenness is

AB + BC = AC ↔ B ∈ A,C  

Absolute value equation:

An absolute value equation is a function that contains an algebraic expression within absolute value symbols.

Given,

Here we have the statement "If three points a, b, and c lie on the same line, then b is between a and c if and only if the distance from a to c is equal to the sum of the distances from a to b and from b to c.".

Here we need to find the absolute value function for this statement.

In order to find the absolute value equation,

First we have to identify the symbols for the terms mentioned in the statement they are,

between = ∈

if and only if = ↔

sum = +

Now, we have to divide the statement as two parts.

First one is, "c lie on the same line, then b is between a and c"

It can be written as,

B ∈ A,C

Then the second part is, "the distance from a to c is equal to the sum of the distances from a to b and from b to c."

Which can be written as

AB + BC = AC

When we combine it, the we get the absolute value equation as,

B ∈ A,C ↔  AB +BC = AC

Jenna bought a new car for $29,000. She paid a 10% down payment and financed
the remaining balance for 48 months with an APR of 4.5%. Determine the monthly
payment that Jenna pays.

Answers

If the remaining balance for 48 months with an APR of 4.5%. the monthly payment that Jenna pays is: $595.17.

How to find the monthly payment?

Using this formula to determine the monthly payment

P = A ×r × ( 1 +r)^n  ÷( 1+ r)^n -1

Where:

P = Principal = ?

A = Amount = $29,000 × ( 1- .10) = 26,100

r = Interest rate = 4.5% / 12 = 0.00375

n = number of months = 48 months

Let plug in the formula

P = 26,100 × 0.00375 × ( 1+ 0.00375)^ 48 ÷ ( 1+ 0.00375)^ 48 -1

P = 26,100 × 0.00375 × ( 1.00375)^ 48 ÷ ( 1.00375)^ 48 -1

P = 26,100 × 0.00375 × 1.196814377  ÷  1.196814377 -1

P = 26,100 × 0.00375 × 1.196814377  ÷  0.196814377

P = $117.1382456  ÷  0.196814377

P = $595.17

Therefore $595.17 is the monthly payment.

A bag contains:• 3 red marbles• 2 2 orange marbles• 1 yellow marble• 4 green marblesA marble is drawn from the bag and replaced 150times. How many times can you predict that a greenmarble or yellow marble will be drawn?

Answers

The probability of getting a green of a yellow marble can be determined like this:

Probability = (yellow marbles + green marbles) / total number of marbles

Probability = (1 + 4) / 10

Probability = 5 / 10

Probability = 1/2

By multiplying the given probability by the number of times a marble will be drawn, we get how many times we can predict that a green or a yellow marble will be picked, then we get:

Number of predictions = 150 × 1/2

Number of predictions = 75

Then, the answer is 75 times

Answer:

75 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a total of 10 marbles in the bag.

Probability a green marble is drawn (in 1 draw) = 4/10 = 2/5.

In 150 draws you can expect to draw 150* 2/5 = 60 green marbles.

Probability a yellow marble is drawn (in 1 draw) = 1/10.

In 150 draws you can expect to draw 150* 1/10 = 15 yellow marbles.

So, the number of times for a green or yellow marble

= 60+15= 75.

an airplane, flying horizontally at 200 mph at an altitude of 3 miles, passes over a radar station. what is the rate of change of the angle of elevation between the radar station and the plane 3 minutes after the plane passes over the radar station? (the angle of elevation is the angle between the horizontal and a line between the radar station and the airplane.)

Answers

The rate of change of angle of elevation between the radar station and airplane is

                       [tex]\displaystyle \frac{-10}{109} \left(\frac{rad}{min}\right)[/tex]

The airplane is flying at the speed of 200 mph

The airplane is at an altitude of 3 miles over the radar station

The distance travelled by the airplane after 3 mins

      distance = speed x time

                     = 200 mi/hr x 3 min

         

Since the speed is hour let us convert it to mins

                     = 200 x 3 x 1/60

                     = 600 / 60

                    = 10 miles

So , let us assume that the airplane is exactly at the top of the radar station at an altitude of 3 miles

Then the elevation angle of the between radar station and airplane can be find by

                              tan θ = O / A
where O is the opposite side to the angle of elevation

          A is the adjacent side to the angle of elevation.

                       

But we need the find the rate of change of angle of elevation , so let us differentiate on both side with respect to time

     

                                [tex]\displaystyle sec^{2}\theta\frac{ d\theta }{dt} = \frac{A \frac{dO}{dt} - O \frac{dA}{dt} }{A^{2}}[/tex]

                                        [tex]\displaystyle \frac{ d\theta }{dt} = \frac{A \frac{dO}{dt} - O \frac{dA}{dt} }{sec^{2}\theta A^{2}}[/tex]

                                       [tex]\displaystyle \frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{10 (0) - 3 (200 mi/hr)}{sec^{2}(10)^{2}}[/tex]

The altitude is gonna be a constant , thus the derivative of altitude will be zero whereas , the the distance travelled by airplane is changing with respect to time.

               

                                   [tex]\displaystyle \frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{10 (0) - 3 (200 mi/hr)}{\frac{109}{100}(10)^{2}}[/tex]

We had found the value of sec²θ = (hyp/adj)²

                                    [tex]\displaystyle \frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{-600}{109} \frac{rad}{hr}[/tex]

Now , let us convert in terms of rad/min

                             

                                   [tex]\displaystyle \frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{-600}{109} \left(\frac{1}{60}\right)[/tex]

   

                                  [tex]\displaystyle \frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{-10}{109} \left(\frac{rad}{min}\right)[/tex]    

Therefore , the rate of change of angle of elevation is -10/109 (rad/min)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1st: The sum of the same side interior angles equal 180°. Use this to solve for x.

45x - 5 + 16x + 2 = 180

61x - 3 = 180

61x - 3 + 3 = 180 + 3

61x/61 = 183/61

x = 3

2nd: find the measure of angle 16x + 2

16x + 2

16(3) + 2

48 + 2

50°

3rd: the sum of the 50° angle and the angle 26y° is 180 since they make a straight angle. Make an equation and solve for y.

50 + 26y = 180

50 - 50 + 26y = 180 - 50

26y = 130

26y/26 =130/26

The rate of the slowest car is 86 km/hr using the concept of relative velocity.

What is Relative velocity?

Relative speed is the rate at which one moving body moves in relation to another. The differential between two moving bodies determines their relative speed while they are traveling in the same direction. However, when two bodies are traveling in opposition to one another, the relative speed is determined by averaging their respective speed.

Let the speed of 1st car is v₁.

Let the speed of 2nd car is v₂.

v₁- v₂ = 18 km/hr --- (1)

And using the concept of relativity.

S(rel) = D(rel)/time

S(rel) = 360 / 2

S(rel) = 190

v₁ + v₂ = 190 --- (2)

Adding equations 1 and 2 we get

v₁ = 104 km/hr
