Miriam bought a barbecue grill on sale for 25% off the original price. Including an 8% sales tax, the final cost was $79.95. If Miriam wants to determine the original cost of the grill, what is an equation that she can use to solve the problem if x represents the original price?

Answers

Answer 1

The Original price of barbecue grill is 96.325.

What is Algebra?

A branch of mathematics known as algebra deals with symbols and the mathematical operations performed on them.

Variables are the name given to these symbols because they lack set values.

In order to determine the values, these symbols are also subjected to various addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division arithmetic operations.

Given:

The final cost  barbecue grill is $79.95.

Discount = 25%

and Tax = 8%

let the original price be x

x- 0.25x + 0.08x = 79.95

0.83x = 79.95

x= 79.95/0.83

x = $96.325

Hence, the Original price of barbecue grill is 96.325.

Answers

The area of two lawns will be 4000 square meters.

According to the question,

We have the following information:

Craig mows two lawns. The first lawn is 40 meters long and 20 meters wide. The second lawn has the same length, and a width that is 4 times as much as the first one.

So, the width of the second lawn = 4*20

Width of second lawn = 80 m

Now, formula to find area of rectangle:

Length*width

Area of first lawn:

40*20

800 square meters

Area of second lawn:

40*80

3200 square meters

Now, the area of two lawns = area of first lawn+ area of second lawn

Area = 800+3200

Area = 4000 square meters

Hence, the total area of two lawns is 4000 square meters.

The volume V of a fixed amount of a gas varies directly as the temperature T and inversely as the pressure P. Suppose that V = 70 cm^3 when T = 420 kelvin and P = 18 kg/cm^2. Find the pressure when T = 140 kelvin and V = 60 cm^3.

Answers

The pressure of the gas is 7kg/cm^2.

How to determine the pressure of the gas?

Joint Variation is a situation in which the value of one variable depends on two, or more, other variables when the other variables are held constant

Given that: The volume V of a fixed amount of a gas varies directly as the temperature T and inversely as the pressure P. This can be written as:

VαT and Vα 1/P

Combining the two relations gives:

Thus Vα T/P  

V = kT/P        (where k is a constant)

PV=kT

k = PV/T

P =kT/V

Given: V = 70 cm^3

when T = 420 kelvin

P = 18 kg/cm^2

k = 18×70 / 420

k = 1260/420

k = 3

Given: T = 140 kelvin and

V = 60 cm^3.

Find the pressure

P = kT/V

P = 3×140/60

= 420/60

= 7kg/cm^2

Therefore, the pressure when T = 140 kelvin and V = 60 cm^3 is 7kg/cm^2.

The equation for the word problem the difference of ten times a number and six is fourteen is (10x-6 = 14) and the value of x is 2.

According to the question,

We have the following information:

The difference of ten times a number and six is fourteen.

Now, let's take the number to be x.

So, we have the following expression:

10x-6 = 14

Now, moving 6 from the left hand side to the right hand side will result in the change of the sign from minus to plus:

10x = 14+6

10x = 20

x = 20/10

x = 2

a.) find the test statistic
b.) what is the p-value
c.)what is the conclusion about the null hypothesis
d.) what is the final conclusion?

Answers

Regarding the hypothesis tested in this problem, it is found that:

a) The test statistic is: t = 0.49.

b) The p-value is: 0.6297..

c) The null hypothesis is not rejected, as the p-value is greater than the significance level.

d) It appears that the students are legitimately good at estimating one minute, as the sample does not give enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

What is the test statistic?

The test statistic of the t-distribution is given by the equation presented as follows:

[tex]t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which the variables of the equation are given as follows:

[tex]\overline{x}[/tex] is the sample mean.[tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the hypotheses.s is the standard deviation of the sample.n is the sample size.

The value tested at the hypothesis is:

[tex]\mu = 60[/tex]

From the sample, using a calculator, the other parameters are given as follows:

[tex]\overline{x} = 62.47, s = 19.2, n = 15[/tex]

Hence the test statistic is obtained as follows:

[tex]t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{62.47 - 60}{\frac{19.2}{\sqrt{15}}}[/tex]

t = 0.49.

What are the p-value and the conclusion?

The p-value is obtained using a t-distribution calculator, with a two-tailed test, as we are testing if the mean is different a value, in this case 60, with:

15 - 1 = 14 df, as the number of degrees of freedom is one less than the sample size.t = 0.49, as obtained above.

Hence the p-value is of 0.6297.

Since the p-value is greater than the significance level of 0.01, the null hypothesis is not rejected, attesting to the ability of the students to estimate one minute.

Since the function is not one-to-one, the inverse function of f(x) = x³ + 3x² - 4 is not defined at x = -4.

How to obtain the numeric value of the inverse function?

An original function is composed by a set of points in the following format:

(x,y).

On the graph of the function, we have that:

The x-coordinate represents the input of the function, being the horizontal axis of the graph.The y-coordinate represents the output of the function, being the vertical axis of the graph.

On the inverse function, the input and the output are exchanged, hence the format of the point is:

(y,x).

To find the numeric value of the inverse function at x = -4, we need to identify the value of x on the original function where y = -4.

However, looking at the graph of the function given at the end of the answer, the function is not one-to-one at y = -4, since f(-3) = f(0) = 4, thus the inverse function is not defined at x = -4.
