Michael's parents doubled his pocket money. His sister paid $1 for ice-cream from her pocket money and he paid $3 of his poket money for an new toy. After making these payments, they have the same money left. If his sister's pocket money is $6, what was Michael's pocket money before doubling it?


1. How much money did they together have after making the payments?

2. How much money did Michael have after his pocket money was doubled. Find the value of x.

3. How much did Micheal's sister have before making the payment?

(ONLY THE ANSWER)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = $4

1. $10

2. $8

3. $6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Michael's doubled pocket money = 2x

He spends $3

Balance = 2x - 3

His sister's pocket money = $6

She spends $1

Balance = $6 - $1

= $5

2x - 3 = 5

2x = 5 + 3

2x = 8

x = 8/2

= 4

x = $4

After making the payments, they both together have $10

After Michael's pocket money was doubled, he has 2x

= 2(4)

= $8

His sister's has $6 before making the payments

At Greenwood Landscaping, rock costs $47.50 per ton. How much would 2.5 tons cost?

$94.25
$118.75
$107.75
$332.50

Answers

Answer:

Hey!

Your answer is $118.75!

Step-by-step explanation: How did I get this?

STEP 1: So we know that for a ton of rock costs us $47.50...

To get 2 tons all we have to do is to MULTIPLY $47.50 by 2...

(47.50 x 2 = 95)

STEP 2: So for $95, you will get 2 tons of rock!

Now to get the .5 tons of rock in price form, we have to get the price of the whole 2.5 tons and DIVIDE BY 2

(47.50 ÷ 2 = 23.75)

STEP 3: So now we have the costs for 2 tons and the price for HALF a ton.

What we do now is easy...we ADD THE VALUES TOGTHER!

(95 + 23.75 = $118.75)

The result of $118.75 after adding them together is the PRICE OF 2 TONS!

I HOPE THIS HELPED YOU!

Answer:

$118.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, we know a rock per ton is $47.50.

What we need to know is how much 2.5 tons cost.

So if we take our 2.5 tons and we multiply it with our $47.50, this is what it will look like:

($47.50 * 2.5) = $118.75

So 2.5 tons of rock costs $118.75

A department store purchases screen-printed t-shirts at a cost of $5 per shirt. They mark up the price 150% (making the selling price 250% of the store's purchase price) and put them on the sales floor. Every month that a t-shirt doesn't sell, the store reduces the selling price by 25%.Which expression shows the selling price after one monthly price reduction?

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Cost price = $5 per T - shirt

Markup = 150% or cost price

Every month which shirt doesn't sell, selling price drops by 25%

Selling price of Tshirt = (150% * $5) = $7.5

Price after 1 month = (100% - 25%) * $7.5 = $5.625

Hence, the equation could be expressed as :

Price after one month:

(1.5 * $5) - 0.75 * (1.5 * $5)

7.5 - 0.75(7.5)

is 10/2 an irrational number?

Answers

Answer:

yes it is because it is expressed in the form of a p/q

Step-by-step explanation:

If a number is expressed in the form of p/q then it is a rational number. Here p and q are integers, and q is not equal to 0. A rational number should have a numerator and denominator. Examples: 10/2, 30/3, 100/5.

so yes 10/2 is a rational number

oh and i mean yes its rational no its not irrational :)

No, it is not an irrational number.

Irrational numbers are those who cannot be turned into a fraction.

10/2 is a fraction. Therefore, it is a Rational number.

Triangle ABC will be dilated according to the rule

[tex]D_{F, 0.25} (x,y)[/tex], where point F is the center of dilation.

What will be the coordinates of vertex A' of the image?


a. (-8,-4)

b. (-2,-1)

c. (0, 0)

d. (1, 0)


The answer is (1,0), but could someone explain how you get it, please?

Answers

Usually dilations have a center of dilation at the origin (0,0). When this occurs all we need to do is multiply each coordinate by the dilation scale. Unfortunately things get a little more complicated when the center of dilation is not at the origin.

In this case the center of dilation is located at F: (3,1)

The first step we must take is to find how many units point F is from vertex A.

In this case, F is 4 unit up and 8 units right of vertex A. (Reference the first image below to see how I found this)

Now we must multiply these dimensions (4 units and 8 units) by the factor of dilation (0.25)

4 * 0.25 = 1

8 * 0.25 = 2

This shows us how many dimensions away point [tex]A^{1}[/tex] is from point F:

1 unit vertically

2 units horizontally

Now how do we know if [tex]A^{1}[/tex] is above or below, left or right from point F? Easy! There has been no translations so the directions will be the same as the original:

Point F: (3, 1) ---> (3-2, 1-1) ---> (1, 0)

Reference the second image to see this

Hopefully this helps and makes sense. Let me know if you need further explanation or clarification.

Charlene Langhorst's gross weekly salary is $680. Her federal withholding is $101.62. Her employer takes out the standard rates for FICA (Social Security/Medicare). The state tax is 1.5% of gross pay. Each week she pays $32.40 for medical insurance. What are Charlene's total weekly deductions? *

Answers

Answer:

Total deductions =  $196.24

Step-by-step explanation:

Gross weekly salary = $680

federal holding = $101.62

FICA standard rate = 7.65% of gross earnings

= 7.65% of $680 = 0.0765 × 680 = $52.02

∴ FICA deductions = $52.02

state tax = 1.5% of gross pay = 1.5% of $680

state tax = 0.015 × 680 = $10.2

∴ state tax = $10.2

Medical insurance = $32.40

Total Deductions = 101.62 + 52.02 + 10.2 + 32.40 = $196.24

The average fun size Snickers bar has the mass of 20.1 grams with a standard deviation of 0.7 grams What percent of Snickers bars have a mass more than 21.5 grams?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

The “fun size” of a Snickers bar is supposed to weigh 20 grams. Because the penalty for selling Snickers candy bars that weigh less than 20 grams is so severe, the manufacturer calibrates the machine so that the mean weight is 20.2 grams. The quality control manager at the candy company is concerned that the candy produced does not weigh 20.2 grams. She obtains a random sample of 64 candy bars and weighs them. She finds that the mean weight of this sample is 20.05 grams with standard deviation 0.72. By answering the following questions, test the claim that the Snickers bars have a mean weight less than 20.2 grams at the level of α = 0.01.

1. Select from the following list all the requirements that are met in this problem scenario for this test: (circle your choice(s))

a. The population is approximately normal.

b. The population standard deviation is known.

c. The sample taken is a random sample.

d. The population standard deviation is unknown. e

f. The sample size is greater than 30.

2. Which of the following statements is correct?

a) Parameters describe sample characteristics.

b) Statistics describe population characteristics.

c) We use statistics to estimate the value of parameters.

d) We use parameters to estimate the value of statistics

Expert Answer

The percent of Snickers bars which have a mass more than 21.5 grams is equal to 2.28%.

To find the percentage of Snickers bars with a mass more than 21.5 grams,

use the concept of standard normal distribution.

Calculate the z-score for 21.5 grams.

The z-score is a measure of how many standard deviations a particular value is away from the mean. It can be calculated using the formula:

z = (x - μ) / σ

where x is the value we want to find the z-score for, μ is the mean, and σ is the standard deviation.

Here

x = 21.5 grams

μ = 20.1 grams (mean)

σ = 0.7 grams (standard deviation)

z = (21.5 - 20.1) / 0.7

z = 1.4 / 0.7

z = 2

The percentage of values greater than the z-score in the standard normal distribution calculator.

The percentage of values greater than 2 standard deviations from the mean is approximately 2.28%.

Therefore, approximately 2.28 percent of Snickers bars have a mass more than 21.5 grams.

Answer:

x = 32.5

y = 65

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 65 degrees

65 and y are the base angles in an isosceles triangle ( single lines)  so they are equal

y+z = 180 since they form a straight line

65+z = 180

z = 180-65

z = 115

The second triangle is also an isosceles triangle so the base angles are the same as shown by x

180 = x+x+z

180 =2x+ 115

65 = 2x

x = 32.5

In the equation above, a and b are positive
constants and a ≠ b. How many distinct x-intercepts
does the graph of the equation in the xy-plane have?

Answers

The x-intercepts of an equation are simply the zeros of the equation

The equation [tex]\mathbf{y = bx(x - a)(x -a)(x + b)(x - b)}[/tex] has 4 distinct x-intercepts

The equation is given as:

[tex]\mathbf{y = bx(x - a)(x -a)(x + b)(x - b)}[/tex]

Set the equation to 0; i.e. calculate the zeros

[tex]\mathbf{bx(x - a)(x -a)(x + b)(x - b) = 0}[/tex]

Divide both sides by constant b

[tex]\mathbf{x(x - a)(x -a)(x + b)(x - b) = 0}[/tex]

Split the above equation, as follows

[tex]\mathbf{x= 0\ or\ x - a = 0\ or\ x -a = 0\ or\ x + b = 0\ or\ x - b = 0}[/tex]

Solve for x in each of the equation

[tex]\mathbf{x= 0\ or\ x = a\ or\ x = a\ or\ x= -b\ or\ x = b}[/tex]

Remove repeated solutions

[tex]\mathbf{x= 0\ or\ x = a\ or\ x= -b\ or\ x = b}[/tex]

The count of solutions above is 4

Hence, the equation has 4 distinct x-intercepts
