Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Hey, ill do like 2 and you can do the rest

percent decrease or change is

new-old over old

So like #1

1) 60 is old, 48 is new

so 48-60=-12

now over old which is 60

-12/60

-1/5

20 percent decrease

2) 180 is old, 108 is new

108-180=-72

-72/180

40 percent decrease

Answers

Answer:

x = -1/5y +3

Step-by-step explanation:

add -y to both sides

5x + y + -y = 15 + -y

5x = -y + 15

step 2 divide both sides by 5

5x/5 = -y +15/5

x= -1/5 y +3

When you’re multiplying or dividing same sign numbers, what will your product or quotient be?

Answers

When you multiply two integers with the same signs, the result is always positive. Just multiply the absolute values and make the answer positive. When you multiply two integers with different signs, the result is always negative.

The answer will be the opposite of the sign so for example -5*-5= 25

The distribution of height of adult american women is approximately normal with a mean of 65.5 inches and a standard deviation of 2.5 inches what percentage of women are taller than 70.5 inches?

Answers

Answer:

2.275%

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by calculating the z-score

Mathematically;

z-score = (x-mean)SD

here, x = 70.5

mean = 65.5

SD = 2.5

Substituting these values;

z = (70.5-65.5)/2.5

= 5/2.5 = 2

So we want to calculate the probability that;

P( z> 2)

We check the standard normal distribution table for this

That will be

0.02275

In percentage, this is 2.275 %

[tex]\huge\boxed{3x+y=23}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, let's note that when given a slope and a point, we will write our equation in the form [tex]ax+by=c[/tex], where a is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

Since we know the slope, but not the y-intercept, we can start to fill in what we already know.

[tex]3x+y=c[/tex]

Therefore to finish this equation, we must find the y-intercept.

Since we know that the point (7, 2) runs through this line, we can plug it into our formula ([tex]3x+y=c[/tex]) to find the y-intercept, b.

2 is the y, 7 is the x, -3 is the slope, so we can plug it into the equation to find b.

[tex]3(7) + 2 = c[/tex] [tex]21+2=c[/tex] [tex]23 = c[/tex]

This means that the y-intercept for our graph is 23. Now that we know this, we can plug it into our equation ([tex]3x+y=c[/tex]) as b and finish up the equation for the line.

[tex]3x+y=23[/tex]

Find the length of the rectangle if the perimeter is 244 yards the length is 18 less than three times the width?

Answers

Answer:

The Length of rectangle is 87 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let width = w

Length = 3w-18

Perimeter of rectangle = 244 yards

We need to find length of rectangle.

First we need to find value of w

The formula used will be: [tex]Perimeter=2(length+width)[/tex]

Putting values and finding w

[tex]Perimeter=2(length+width)\\244=2(3w-18+w)\\244=2(4w-18)\\244=8w-36\\244+36=8w\\8w=280\\w=\frac{280}{8}\\w=35[/tex]

So, w= 35

The width of rectangle w = 35 yards

The length of rectangle l = 3w-18 = 3(35)-18 = 105-18 = 87 yards.

So, the Length of rectangle is 87 yards.

Answers

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

✔️Using trigonometric ratio, find width of the rectangle, BD:

Thus:

[tex] tan(\theta) = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} [/tex]

Where,

[tex] tan(\theta) = tan(60) = \sqrt{3} [/tex]

Opposite = BD

Adjacent = 7 cm

Plug in the values

[tex] \sqrt{3} = \frac{BD}{7} [/tex]

Multiply both sides by 7

[tex] 7\sqrt{3} = BD [/tex]

[tex] BD = 7\sqrt{3} [/tex]

✔️Using trigonometric ratio, find height of the rectangle, BF:

Thus:

[tex] tan(\theta) = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} [/tex]

Where,

[tex] tan(\theta) = tan(60) = \sqrt{3} [/tex]

Opposite = 6 cm

Adjacent = BF

Plug in the values

[tex] \sqrt{3} = \frac{6}{BF} [/tex]

[tex] BF = \frac{6}{\sqrt{3}} [/tex]

Rationalize

[tex] BF = \frac{6 \times \sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3} \times \sqrt{3}} [/tex]

[tex] BF = \frac{6\sqrt{3}}{3} [/tex]

[tex] BF = 2\sqrt{3} [/tex]

✔️Perimeter of rectangle BDEF:

Perimeter = 2(BD + BF)

Plug in the values

[tex] Perimeter = 2(7\sqrt{3} + 2\sqrt{3}) [/tex]

[tex] Perimeter = 2(9\sqrt{3}) [/tex]

[tex] Perimeter = 18\sqrt{3} [/tex]

✔️Area of the rectangle BDEF:

Area = BD × BF

Plug in the values

[tex] Area = 7\sqrt{3} \times 2\sqrt{3} [/tex]

[tex] Area = 7 \times 2\sqrt{3 \times 3} [/tex]

[tex] Area = 14 \times 3 [/tex]

[tex] Area = 42 [/tex]

A store has x number of shirts. Each shirt was sold for $16, but the last dozen was sold on sale for $14 each. When all shirts were sold, the store gained $616. Find the number of shirts sold at the regular price.

Answers

Answer:

28 shirts

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's see what we are given.

there are x amount of shirts ($616 total)

there are 12 in a dozen

the regular shirts are $16

the last 12 shirts are $14

Lets make an equation.

616= 14(12) + 16x

616=168+16x

448=16x

x=28

Answers

Answer:

CD = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the triangles are congruent, then corresponding sides are congruent, that is

CD = AB , substitute values

3y + 1 = 15 - 4y ( add 4y to both sides )

7y + 1 = 15 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

7y = 14 ( divide both sides by 7 )

y = 2

Thus

CD = 3y + 1 = 3(2) + 1 = 6 + 1 = 7

Elena is binding a small booklet with a spine that is 21/4 inches long. She uses staples that are 7/16-inch long. If she puts the staples end-to-end through the booklet, without gaps or overlaps between them, how many staples would it take to bind the booklet?

Answers

Answer:

12 staples

Step-by-step explanation:

So the first thing we have to do is find the G.C.D (Greatest Common Denominator) between 21/4 and 7/16 which of course is 16 so your new fractions would be 84/16 and 7/16.

Now we have to divide both numbers I just used a fraction calculator for this but basically you multiply 84/16 by the reciprocal of 7/16 which is 16/7 and simplify which equals 12.

So it would take 12 staples to bind the booklet

Because of PEMDAS, Simplify 15x72 first. That will bring you to 1080. After that we add 6 to the 1080 because you always do Multiplication first. Your answer would be 1086 if you followed PEMDAS correctly.

Emma throws an object upward from a hill that is 64 feet high. The object has an initial velocity of 48 feet per second. The function y = -16x2 + 48x + 64 represents the height of the object, y, in terms of the time elapsed after the object is thrown, x.

Answers

Answer:

100feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the height of the object modelled by the equation

y = -16x^2 + 48x + 64

We can find the maximum height reached by the object since we are not told what to find.

The velocity of the object at its max height is zero.

dy/x = 0

dy/dx = -32x + 48

0 = -32x + 48

32x = 48

x = 48/32

x = 1.5secs

get the max height by substituting x = 1.5 into the given equation:

y = -16x^2 + 48x + 64

y = -16(1.5)^2 + 48(1.5)+ 64

y =  -36+72+64

y = 100 feet

Hence the maximum height reached by the object is 100feet

The perimeter of a rectangle is 50ft. If the length is one more than twice the width,
what is the length, width and area?

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the rectangle be x

Since the length is one more than twice the width. Therefore, the length will be: = 2x + 1

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(length + breadth)

50 = 2(2x + 1 + x)

50 = 2(3x + 1)

50 = 6x + 2

6x = 50 - 2

6x = 48

x = 48/6

x= 8

Width = 8ft

Length = 2x + 1 = 2(8) + 1 = 16 + 1 = 17ft

Area = Length × Width = 17 × 8 = 136ft^2
