2. I think of a number and I reduce it by 60%. Then I add 60 to the number. The number I end
up with is 240. What was my starting number?

Answers

Answer 1
x * (1-60/100) = 0.4x
0.4x + 60 = 240
0.4x = 240 - 60
0.4x = 180
x = 180/0.4
x = 450
The starting number is 450
What I did was decrease x “unknown starting number” by 10% giving 0.4x then I made a second equation by adding 60 and equaling to 240 then I simplified to find x.


ANSWER
Original “starting number” = 450

Answers

Answer:

1.86

Step-by-step explanation:

Since decimals are the same as fractions, we can convert 4/5 to .80. And since "of" means multiply, we can convert .80 of 9.3 to:

.8 x 9.3 = 7.44

This is the amount of pears, so we subtract:

9.3 - 7.44 = 1.86

The weight of the apples is 1.86.

In how many months will the total cost of both options be the same? What will that cost be?

In months the total cost of both options will be the same. That cost will be $.

Answers

Answer:

8 months and $320

Step-by-step explanation:

To find when 30m + 80 = 40m, isolate m.

30m + 80 = 40m

Subtract 40m from both sides.

-10m + 80 = 0

Subtract 80 from both sides.

-10m = -80

Divide both sides by -10

m = 8

To find the cost, substitute 8 as m in one of the equations.

40(8) = 320

Show your work, thanks!​

Answers

Answer:

[tex] \rm\displaystyle \displaystyle \displaystyle θ= {60}^{ \circ} , {300}^{ \circ} [/tex]

[tex] \rm \displaystyle a = - \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} - 1, \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} - 1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given two coincident points

[tex] \displaystyle P( \sin(θ)+2, \tan(θ)-2) \: \text{and } \\ \displaystyle Q(4 \sin ^{2} (θ)+4 \sin(θ) \cos(θ)+2a \cos(θ), 3 \sin(θ)-2 \cos(θ)+a)[/tex]

since they are coincident points

[tex] \rm \displaystyle P( \sin(θ)+2, \tan(θ)-2) = \displaystyle Q(4 \sin ^{2} (θ)+4 \sin(θ )\cos(θ)+2a \cos(θ), 3 \sin(θ)-2 \cos(θ)+a)[/tex]

By order pair we obtain:

[tex] \begin{cases} \rm\displaystyle \displaystyle 4 \sin ^{2} (θ)+4 \sin(θ) \cos(θ)+2a \cos(θ) = \sin( \theta) + 2 \\ \\ \displaystyle 3 \sin( \theta) - 2 \cos( \theta) + a = \tan( \theta) - 2\end{cases}[/tex]

now we end up with a simultaneous equation as we have two variables

to figure out the simultaneous equation we can consider using substitution method

to do so, make a the subject of the equation.therefore from the second equation we acquire:

[tex] \begin{cases} \rm\displaystyle \displaystyle 4 \sin ^{2} (θ)+4 \sinθ \cos(θ)+2a \cos(θ )= \sin( \theta) + 2 \\ \\ \boxed{\displaystyle a = \tan( \theta) - 2 - 3 \sin( \theta) + 2 \cos( \theta) } \end{cases}[/tex]

now substitute:

[tex] \rm\displaystyle \displaystyle 4 \sin ^{2} (θ)+4 \sin(θ) \cos(θ)+2 \cos(θ) \{\tan( \theta) - 2 - 3 \sin( \theta) + 2 \cos( \theta) \}= \sin( \theta) + 2 [/tex]

distribute:

[tex]\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle 4 \sin ^{2}( θ)+4 \sin(θ) \cos(θ)+2 \sin(θ ) - 4\cos( \theta) - 6 \sin( \theta) \cos( \theta) + 4 \cos ^{2} ( \theta) = \sin( \theta) + 2 [/tex]

collect like terms:

[tex]\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle 4 \sin ^{2}( θ) - 2\sin(θ) \cos(θ)+2 \sin(θ ) - 4\cos( \theta) + 4 \cos ^{2} ( \theta) = \sin( \theta) + 2 [/tex]

rearrange:

[tex]\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle 4 \sin ^{2}( θ) + 4 \cos ^{2} ( \theta) - 2\sin(θ) \cos(θ)+2 \sin(θ ) - 4\cos( \theta) + = \sin( \theta) + 2 [/tex]

by Pythagorean theorem we obtain:

[tex]\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle 4 - 2\sin(θ) \cos(θ)+2 \sin(θ ) - 4\cos( \theta) = \sin( \theta) + 2 [/tex]

cancel 4 from both sides:

[tex]\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle - 2\sin(θ) \cos(θ)+2 \sin(θ ) - 4\cos( \theta) = \sin( \theta) - 2[/tex]

move right hand side expression to left hand side and change its sign:

[tex]\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle - 2\sin(θ) \cos(θ)+\sin(θ ) - 4\cos( \theta) + 2 = 0[/tex]

factor out sin:

[tex]\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle \sin (θ) (- 2 \cos(θ)+1) - 4\cos( \theta) + 2 = 0[/tex]

factor out 2:

[tex]\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle \sin (θ) (- 2 \cos(θ)+1) + 2(- 2\cos( \theta) + 1 ) = 0[/tex]

group:

[tex]\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle ( \sin (θ) + 2)(- 2 \cos(θ)+1) = 0[/tex]

factor out -1:

[tex]\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle - ( \sin (θ) + 2)(2 \cos(θ) - 1) = 0[/tex]

divide both sides by -1:

[tex]\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle ( \sin (θ) + 2)(2 \cos(θ) - 1) = 0[/tex]

by Zero product property we acquire:

[tex] \begin{cases}\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle \sin (θ) + 2 = 0 \\ \displaystyle2 \cos(θ) - 1= 0 \end{cases}[/tex]

cancel 2 from the first equation and add 1 to the second equation since -1≤sinθ≤1 the first equation is false for any value of theta

[tex] \begin{cases}\rm\displaystyle \displaystyle \sin (θ) \neq - 2 \\ \displaystyle2 \cos(θ) = 1\end{cases}[/tex]

divide both sides by 2:

[tex] \rm\displaystyle \displaystyle \displaystyle \cos(θ) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

by unit circle we get:

[tex] \rm\displaystyle \displaystyle \displaystyle θ= {60}^{ \circ} , {300}^{ \circ} [/tex]

so when θ is 60° a is:

[tex] \rm \displaystyle a = \tan( {60}^{ \circ} ) - 2 - 3 \sin( {60}^{ \circ} ) + 2 \cos( {60}^{ \circ} ) [/tex]

recall unit circle:

[tex] \rm \displaystyle a = \sqrt{3} - 2 - \frac{ 3\sqrt{3} }{2} + 2 \cdot \frac{1}{2} [/tex]

simplify which yields:

[tex] \rm \displaystyle a = - \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} - 1[/tex]

when θ is 300°

[tex] \rm \displaystyle a = \tan( {300}^{ \circ} ) - 2 - 3 \sin( {300}^{ \circ} ) + 2 \cos( {300}^{ \circ} ) [/tex]

remember unit circle:

[tex] \rm \displaystyle a = - \sqrt{3} - 2 + \frac{3\sqrt{ 3} }{2} + 2 \cdot \frac{1}{2} [/tex]

simplify which yields:

[tex] \rm \displaystyle a = \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} - 1[/tex]

If $9x^2 - 16x + k$ is a perfect square trinomial, find $k$.

Answers

The answer to the above statement is: $k$ has a perfect square trinomial value of 16.

To determine the value of $k$ such that $9x^2 - 16x + k$ is a perfect square trinomial, we can follow these steps:

Identify the form of a perfect square trinomial. A perfect square trinomial can be written in the form $(ax + b)^2$, where $a$ and $b$ are constants.

Examine the $9x2 - 16x + k$ trinomial in comparison to the perfect square trinomial form.  We need to match the quadratic term and the linear term.

The quadratic term in the perfect square trinomial is $(ax)^2 = a^2x^2$, which corresponds to $9x^2$ in our trinomial.

The linear term in the perfect square trinomial is $2abx$, which corresponds to $-16x$ in our trinomial.

By comparing the terms, we can set up the following equation: $2abx = -16x$. This implies that $2ab = -16$.

Solve for $a$ and $b$ using the equation $2ab = -16$.

Let's consider possible factor pairs of $-16$: $(1, -16)$, $(2, -8)$, and $(4, -4)$.

We need to find a pair $(a, b)$ such that $2ab = -16$. Checking the options, we find that $(a, b) = (2, -4)$ satisfies the condition since $2(2)(-4) = -16$.

To determine the value of $k$, substitute the values of $a$ and $b$ into the perfect square trinomial form.

The perfect square trinomial form is $(ax + b)^2 = (2x - 4)^2 = 4x^2 - 16x + 16$.

We can see that $k = 16$ by comparing the derived form to the supplied trinomial $9x2 - 16x + k$.

As a result, $k$ has a Perfect Square Trinomial value of 16.

Write out the five number summary for each data set.

Answers

I'll do problem 1 to get you started

First sort the values from smallest to largest and you should end up with this set

{1, 6, 7, 11, 13, 16, 18, 21, 22, 23}

The smallest value is 1 and the largest value is 23, so the min and max are 1 and 23 in that order.

We have ten values in this set. The middle-most number is going to be between the 10/2 = 5th slot and the 6th slot. The numbers 13 and 16 are in the fifth and sixth slots respectively. Average those values to get (13+16)/2 = 29/2 = 14.5

The median is 14.5 which is another name for the second quartile (Q2).

Now split the data set into two halves

L = lower half of values smaller than the median

U = upper half of values larger than the median

In this case,

L = {1, 6, 7, 11, 13}

U = {16, 18, 21, 22, 23}

sets L and U have five items each

Find the median of set L and U to get 7 and 21 respectively. These medians of L and U represent the values of Q1 and Q3 in that order.

Q1 = first quartile = 7

Q3 = third quartile = 21

A limousine costs $75000 new, but it depreciates at a rate of 12% per year. How many years would it take to be worth $45000? Round to the nearest year.

Answers

it will take 4 years.

Number of years to make a worth of $45000 with Depreciation rate of 12% and Total worth $45000 is 4 years

Years= 4 year

What is Depreciation?

The term depreciation refers to an accounting method used to allocate the cost of a tangible or physical asset over its useful life. Depreciation represents how much of an asset's value has been used. It allows companies to earn revenue from the assets they own by paying for them over a certain period of time.

Given that:

limousine costs $75000

Depreciation rate = 12% per year= 0.12

Total worth= $45000

By using the formula for year we have

total worth = cost of object [tex](1- Depreciation \;rate)^{year}[/tex]

45000= 75000x [tex](1-0.12)^{year}[/tex]

0.6= [tex](0.88)^{year}[/tex]

Now taking log on both side we have

log 0.6= year x  log0.88

-0.2218 = year x -0.05551

year= 4.049

year≈ 4 year(rounding off nearest year)
