At a sale, dresses were sold for $39 each. If the dresses originally cost $60 each, what percentage of its original price was a dress sold for?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

65%

Step-by-step explanation:

We're looking for how big a part of the original price the reduced price is.

This can be done using division.

E.g., if the reduced price was $1, and the original price was $10, we can find how big of a part $1 is of $10 by dividing them.

[tex]\frac{1}{10} = 0.1 = 10\%[/tex]

The reduced price is 10% of the original price. Remember that 0.1 in decimal is 10%, same as how 1.0 is 100%, and 0.3 is 30%.

Let's try this using our dresses. The reduced price was $39, and the original price was $60.

[tex]\frac{39}{60} = 0.65 = 65\%[/tex]

The dresses were sold at 65% of the original price.

Note, this does NOT mean that they were sold at a 65% discount. To find that, we'd have to find out how big the discount was. Then, we'd divide it by the original price.

For example, if the original price was $10, and the reduced price is $9, then the reduced price is 90% of the original price, but it's at a 10% discount.

[tex]\frac{9}{10} = 0.9 = 90\%[/tex]

[tex]10-9=1[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{10}=0.1=10\%[/tex]

Samuel currently has an account balance of $3,439.96. He opened the account five years ago with a deposit of $3,104.31. If the interest compounds quarterly, what is the interest rate on the account?

Answers

Answer:

The interest rate on the account is 2.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound interest is one that is added to the initial capital and on which new interests are generated. Money, in this case, has a multiplier effect because interest produces new interest. In other words, the initial capital increases in each period because the interests add up.

To calculate the final capital, the initial capital is multiplied by one plus the interest, raised to the number of periods:  

[tex]A=P*(1+\frac{r}{n}) ^{n*t}[/tex]

where

A = Accumulated amount (principal + interest) P = Principal amount r = the interest rate n = the number of times the interest is compounded per year t = Time Involved in years

In this case:

A = $3,439.96P = $3,104.31r = ?n = 4t = 5

Replacing, you get:

[tex]3,439.96=3,104.31*(1+\frac{r}{4}) ^{4*5}[/tex]

Now, solving:

[tex]\frac{3,439.96}{3,104.31} =(1+\frac{r}{4}) ^{20}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt[20]{1.1081} =(1+\frac{r}{4})[/tex]

[tex]1.00514 =1+\frac{r}{4}[/tex]

[tex]1.00514 -1=\frac{r}{4}[/tex]

[tex]0.00514=\frac{r}{4}[/tex]

r=0.0051*4

r= 0.02056

In percentage it is expressed as: r= 2.056 %≅ 2.1 %

The interest rate on the account is 2.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression:

We have to simplify the above expression.

[tex]2.\ a^b\times a^c = a^{b+c}[/tex]

Now, let us try to solve the given above expression using the formulas:

[tex]\Rightarrow (\dfrac{(3^{4}\times 3^2)}{(2^{2}\times 2^{1})})^\frac{7}{2} \times (\dfrac{(3^{5}\times 3^3)}{(2^{3}\times 2^{2})})^\frac{-5}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow (\dfrac{(3^{4+2})}{(2^{2+1})})^\frac{7}{2} \times (\dfrac{(3^{5+3})}{(2^{3+2})})^\frac{-5}{2}\\\Rightarrow (\dfrac{3^{6}}{2^{3}})^\frac{7}{2} \times (\dfrac{3^{8}}{2^{5}})^\frac{-5}{2}\\\Rightarrow (\dfrac{3^{\frac{42}{2}}}{2^{\frac{3\times 7}{2}}})\times (\dfrac{2^{5}}{3^{8}})^\frac{5}{2}\\\Rightarrow (\dfrac{3^{21}}{2^{\frac{21}{2}}})\times (\dfrac{2^{\frac{5\times 5}{2}}}{3^{\frac{8\times 5}{2}}})[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow (\dfrac{3^{21}}{2^{\frac{21}{2}}})\times (\dfrac{2^{\frac{25}{2}}}{3^{20}})\\\Rightarrow {3^{1}}\times {2^{\frac{25-21}{2}}}\\\Rightarrow 3\times 4 \\\Rightarrow \bold{12}[/tex]

stephanie has a recipe that calls for 2/3 tablespoons of vanilla to make 3 1/2 dozen cookies how many tablespoons of vanilla are needed per dozen cookies

Answers

Answer:

4 / 21 spoonful of vanilla

Step-by-step explanation:

3 1/2 dozens = 42 cookies

Let x = spoonful of vanilla for 1 dozen of cookies

2/3 : 42 cookies

x : 12 cookies

2/3 ÷ 42 = x ÷ 12

2/3 × 1/42 = x / 12

2 / 126 = x / 12

Cross product

2*12 = 126*x

24 = 126x

Divide both sides by 126

x = 24 / 126

= 4 / 21

x = 4 / 21 spoonful of vanilla

Per dozen of cookies requires 4/21 spoonful of vanilla

Check:

4/21 per dozen × 3 1/2 dozens

4/21 × 7/2

28 / 42

2/3 spoonful for 3 1/2 dozens

The total amount of dozen cookies = [tex]3\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

Stephanie requires [tex]\dfrac{2}{3} \ tablespoons[/tex] to make [tex]\mathsf{3\dfrac{1}{2}\ dozen \ cookies}[/tex]

Let assume that:

(x) represents the amount of the tablespoons Stephaine needs to prepare 1 dozen cookies:

Then; we can equate both equations together as follows:

[tex]\dfrac{2}{3} \ tablespoons[/tex] =  [tex]\mathsf{3\dfrac{1}{2}\ dozen \ cookies}[/tex]

x tablespoon = 1 dozen cookies

By cross multiply and making (x) the subject of the formula, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{x \times 3\dfrac{1}{2} dozen \ cookies = \dfrac{2}{3} \ tablespoons \times 1 \ dozen \ cookies}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x =\dfrac{ \dfrac{2}{3} \ tablespoons \times 1 \ dozen \ cookies}{3\dfrac{1}{2} dozen \ cookies}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x =\dfrac{ \dfrac{2}{3} \ tablespoons}{3\dfrac{1}{2} }}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x =\dfrac{ \dfrac{2}{3} \ tablespoons}{\dfrac{7}{2} }}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x = \dfrac{2}{3} \ tablespoons} \div {\dfrac{7}{2} }[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x = \dfrac{2}{3} \ tablespoons} \times {\dfrac{2}{7} }[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x = \dfrac{4}{21} \ tablespoons}}[/tex]

Therefore, the amount of tablespoons Stephaine will need to prepare a dozen cookies is: [tex]\mathbf{ = \dfrac{4}{21} \ tablespoons}}[/tex]

SCENARIO: ROAD CONSTRUCTION: Your state highway department hires high school students every summer to help with road construction projects. The hourly rate is $11.75 with the possibility of up to 10 hrs per week in overtime, for which you would be paid time and a half. Of course, the work is totally dependent on good weather, so the number of hrs you would work per week could vary. A road construction worker earns $11.75 per hour with up to 10 hours overtime. Write an equation, create a table, and create a graph for a road construction worker's weekly earnings with NO overtime, f(x), where x represents the total number of hrs the road construction worker would work. Is it Proportional or Non-proportional? Using the equation, table or graph, how much will a road construction worker earn for a typical 40 hr week​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

LET

x be the number of  regular work hours

overtime paid time and a half :(11.75+1/2(11.75))= 17.625 dollars

max time =10 hours

max overtime paid = 10*17.625=170.65 dollars per week

f(x) or y =11.75x

the graph is proportional because it passes through the origin( no work hours, no earning)

with no overtime the workers if the workers work 40 hours then :

y=11.75*40=470 dollars

Write a polynomial that represents the area of the shaded region

Answers

Answer: x^2-3x+36

=========================================

Explanation:

The larger rectangle has area of (x+1)(x+1) = x^2+2x+1 through the use of the FOIL rule or distribution

If you use distribution, then it might help to let y = x+1 so we'd have y(x+1) lead to xy+1y which becomes x(x+1)+1(x+1). From there it might be easier to see how to get x^2+2x+1 after everything distributes again and simplifies.

The smaller rectangle has area 5x-35 which is found by distributing 5(x-7)

To get the shaded area, we subtract the two rectangle areas found above

shaded area = (larger area) - (smaller area)

shaded area = (x^2+2x+1) - (5x - 35)

shaded area = x^2+2x+1 - 5x + 35

shaded area = x^2-3x+36

the definition of theorem?

Answers

Answer:

In mathematics, a theorem is a non-self-evident statement that has been proven to be true, either on the basis of generally accepted statements such as axioms or on the basis of previously established statements such as other theorems. A theorem is hence a logical consequence of the axioms, with a proof of the theorem being a logical argument which establishes its truth through the inference rules of a deductive system. As a result, the proof of a theorem is often interpreted as justification of the truth of the theorem statement. In light of the requirement that theorems be proved, the concept of a theorem is fundamentally deductive, in contrast to the notion of a scientific law, which is experimental.

Explanation:

The Zulus are a group of ethnic people from the Bantu tribe in Southern Africa. They also constitute the largest ethnic group in South Africa and were a separate kingdom before the attack by the Britishers in 1879.

Therefore, it is only reasonable to say that the resistance to the British rule in Southern Africa was led by the Zulus as it was their land. The Ethiopians, Egyptians, and Liberians were African nations but not a part of the Southern African area. Ethiopia is in the East, Liberia in the West, and the Egyptians in the North part of Africa.
