Donna bought a notebook for $3.50 and then spent half of her money for a textbook. Next she bought sheet music for $4.00 and then spent half of the remaining money on a calculator. She had $8.00 left. How much money did she start with?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$43.50

Step-by-step explanation:

(Work out backward to find the answer)

Remaining money => $8

=> 8 x 2 = 16

=> 16 + 4 = 20

=> 20 x 2 = 40

=> 40 + 3.50 = 43.50

= $ 43.50

Hence, she had $ 43.50 at the beginning.

Angel invests money in an account paying simple interest. He invests $110 and no money is added or removed from the investment. After one year, he has $115.50. What is the simple percent interest per year?

Answers

Answer:

5%

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's find the interest,

$ 115.50 - $ 110

= $ 5.5

Now let's use this formula to find the simple percent interest.

Simple interest =  P × r × t / 100

Here,

P = Principle

r = rate

t = time

Let us find now.

[tex]5.5 =\frac{P *r*t}{100} \\5.5 = \frac{110*r *1}{100} \\550=110r\\\frac{550}{110} =\frac{110r}{110} \\5=r[/tex]

Therefore, the percentage is 5%

Hope this helps you.

If x−3=5, what is the value of 2(x+4)?

Answers

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

x-3=5, solve for x so that x=5+3

now put this in place of x in the expression 2(x+4)

2[(5+3)+4]

2(8+4)

2(12)

24

We have x - 3 = 5 => x = 8
So 2(x+4) = 2(8+4) = 2. 12 = 24

Haala buys 13 identical shirts and 22 identical ties for £363.01 the cost of the shirt is £15.35 find the cost of the tie

Answers

Using linear system of equations, the cost tie is £7.43.

Linear equations -

In everyday life, we can utilize linear equations to compare prices, make predictions, create budgets, and more. When all of the variables have a highest power of one, an equation is considered to be linear. Each variable is reliant on the others. A one-degree equation is another name for this kind of equation. Continue reading to learn how to solve a linear equation in one or two variables using its standard form, formula, graph, and rules.

Given,

Haala buys 13 identical shirts and 22 identical ties for £363.01 the cost of the shirt is £15.35,

According to question,

let cost of shirt = x

cost of tie = y

Now putting it in the equation,

13x + 22y = 363.01

given x = 15.35

⇒ y = 363.01 - 13(15.35) / 22

y = 363.01 - 199.55 / 22

y = 7.43

A shirt that normally cost $30 is on sale for $21.75 what percent of the regular price is the sale price

Answers

Answer: 72.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

I used trial and error to figure this out.

I first found a quarter of 30 which is 7.5, so the percentage is near 75% since when 7.5 is times by 3 it becomes 22.5 which is close. Then I found what one is by dividing 30 by 100 and guessed the percentages getting closer to the answer basing on whether my last answer was to low or high and found 72.5% of 30 is 21.75 so the answer is 72.5%.

Write an equation for the nth term of the arithmetic sequence –1, –3, –5, –7,

Answers

Answer:

[tex]a_n=-1+(n-1)(-2)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The arithmetic sequence formula looks like this:

[tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)d[/tex]

where aₙ is the nth term, a₁ is the first term, n is the index, and d is the common difference.

Each consecutive term is decreased by 2 over the last, so d = 2. The first term is -1 of course, so you can write this equation:

[tex]a_n=-1+(n-1)(-2)[/tex]

Just to confirm:

[tex]a_n=-1+(n-1)(-2)\\a_3=-1+(2)(-2)\\a_3=-1-4\\a_3=-5[/tex]

And it works, -5 is the 3rd term in the sequence.

Answer:

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = 1 - 2n

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = - 1 and d = a₂ - a₁ = - 3 - (- 1) = - 3 + 1 = - 2 , then

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = - 1 - 2(n - 1) = - 1 - 2n + 2 = - 2n + 1 = 1 - 2n

Answer: y = (5/3)x + -1

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is -5/3, so since its a reflection in the x - axis, the new slope would be the opposite, 5/3. Now for the +1, you just have to find the y intercept by plotting the dots at the opposite version of the y number that is already there. For example because the point (0,1) has 1 as its y number, you make it into -1, and for example if you have the point (3,-4) since -4 is the y number you change it to 4.

Richard is years old, and Teo is years old.
(Type whole numbers.)

Answers

Answer:

Richard is twenty-six and Teo is ten.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Richard's age and y = Teo's age

x = 2y + 6

(2y + 6) + y = 36

3y + 6 = 36

-6            -6

3y = 30

y = 10

x = 2(10) + 6

x = 20 + 6

x = 26

Richard is 26

Suppose an annuity pays 7.0% annual interest, compounded annually. If you invest $3,000 every year for 5 years, what percentage of the balance in the account is interest earned?
Round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a percent.

Answers

Answer:

  13.05%

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of an ordinary annuity earning interest compounded annually is ...

  A = P((1 +r)^n -1)/r . . . . . interest rate r for n years on principal payments P

For this account, the balance after 5 years will be ...

  A = 3000((1 +.07)^5 -1)/0.07 = 3000·5.750739

The sum of payments is ...

  payment total = 3000·5

Then the amount of interest is ...

  3000·(5.750739 -5) = 3000·0.750739

and the fraction that is of the account balance is ...

  (3000·0.750739)/(3000·5.750739) × 100% ≈ 13.05%

About 13.05% of the balance is interest earned.

sets if 98% of households have at least one television set and 4 households are selected, find the probability that at least one household has a television set.

Answers

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.99999984 = 99.999984% probability that at least one household has a television set.

For each household, there are only two possible outcomes, either it has at least one television set, or it does not. The probability of a household having at least one television set is independent of any other household, which means that the binomial distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

The parameters are:

x is the number of successes. n is the number of trials. p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

In this problem:

4 households are selected, hence [tex]n = 4[/tex].98% have at least one television set, hence [tex]p = 0.98[/tex]

The probability that at least one household has a television set is:

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]

In which:

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{4,0}.(0.98)^{0}.(0.02)^{4} = 0.00000016[/tex]

Then:

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.00000016 = 0.99999984 [/tex]

0.99999984 = 99.999984% probability that at least one household has a television set.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex][n][/tex] denote the area of some polygon [tex]n[/tex].

The sum of the area of quadrilaterals BCDE and MNDE is equal to [tex][ABC]-([MBE]+[NDC]+AMN])[/tex] (big triangle subtracting the three smaller triangles that aren't part of BCDE or MNDE).

Let the area of triangle ABC be [tex]\alpha[/tex].

Triangle AMN is similar to triangle ABC. Because their side lengths are in ratio 1:2 respectively, the ratio of the area of triangle AMN to triangle ABC is [tex]1:2^2=1:4[/tex].

Therefore, [tex]\displaystyle [AMN]=\frac{1}{4}[ABC]=\frac{1}{4}\alpha[/tex].

Now for triangle NDC, NDC is similar to triangle AMC. Since M is the midpoint of AB, AMC is half the area of ABC. The ratio of the side lengths between triangle NDC and triangle AMC is [tex]1:2[/tex] because the D is the midpoint of MC, so it follows the ratio of their areas must be [tex]1:4[/tex], respectively.

Therefore, [tex]\displaystyle[NDC]=\frac{1}{4}[AMC]=\frac{1}{8}[ABC]=\frac{1}{8}\alpha[/tex].

We can use the same concept for triangle MEB. Triangle MEB is similar to triangle ANB, and the ratio of their sides is also [tex]1:2[/tex], since E is the midpoint of BN. Their areas are in the ratio [tex]1:2^2=1:4[/tex] and we have [tex]\displaystyle [MBE]=\frac{1}{4}[ANB]=\frac{1}{8}\alpha[/tex].

Thus,

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{[ABC]}{[BCDE]+[MNDE]}=\frac{\alpha}{\alpha-\frac{1}{4}\alpha-\frac{1}{8}\alpha-\frac{1}{8}\alpha}=\frac{\alpha}{0.5\alpha}=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{2}}=\boxed{2}[/tex]
