Answer 1

Answer:

this is an example

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a few different ways to approach this problem, including the following two methods.

 

1) Find 20% of the original price, then subtract that amount from the original price. 

    To find a percentage of a number, you multiply the number by the percentage.  (You are finding a part of a whole.)

    

                   20% = 20/100 = 1/5    or   20% = 0.20

 

    Original Price: $24   Find 20% of $24.                         (Note: "of" is taking part of a whole, so you multiply.)

                

                    0.20 x 24 = 4.80            This is the mark down, or the amount you subtract from original price.

   

    Sale Price = Original Price - Mark Down   

                   =   24.00 - 4.80

                   =   19.20

 

2) If you save 20%, you are still paying 80%. (100-20 = 80) Therefore the sale price is 80% of the original price.

 

                    80% = 80/100 = 4/5     or    80% = 0.80

 

     Sale Price = 80% of Original Price

                    = 0.80 x 24

                    = 19.20

a wildlife photographer photographs a crocodile and then paddles against a river current for 6 km. Then, hoping to photograph a hippopotamus, she paddles 15 km across a lake. She paddles across the lake for one hour longer than she paddled up the river. find the speed of the boat as she paddles the lake if the river current is 2 km/h. Pls answer. You'll get 100 points.

Answers

Answer:

5 km/h or 6 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of the boat be xSpeed against the current in the river is x - 2

Time in the river:

6/(x - 2)

Time in the lake:

15/x

The difference:

6/(x - 2) = 15/x - 1

Solve for x to find the speed of the boat

Multiply both sides by x(x - 2) to clear the fraction:

6x = 15(x - 2) - x(x - 2)6x = 15x - 30 - x² + 2xx² - 11x + 30 = 0(x - 5)(x - 6) =0x -5 = 0, x - 6 = 0x = 5 km/h, x = 6 km/h

The cost of a hamburger is $1.15 more than an order of large fries. Bill bought two hamburgers and an order of fries for a total of $8.60. What is the price of each item? Give your answer in full sentences.

Answers

Answer:

The order of large fries costs $ 2.10, while each hamburger costs $ 3.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the cost of a hamburger is $ 1.15 more than an order of large fries, and Bill bought two hamburgers and an order of fries for a total of $ 8.60, to determine what is the price of each item, the following calculation must be performed:

X + X + 1.15 + X + 1.15 = 8.60

3X + 2.30 = 8.60

3X = 8.60 - 2.30

X = 6.30 / 3

X = 2.10

Thus, each order of large fries costs $ 2.10, while each hamburger costs $ 3.25.

By eating 1 egg, 1 cupcake, and 1 slice of pizza, a child consumes 300 mg of cholesterol. If the child eats 3 cupcakes and 4 slices of pizza, he or she takes in 86 mg of cholesterol. By eating 2 eggs and 1 cupcake, a child consumes 566 mg of cholesterol. How much cholesterol is in each item?

Answers

Answer:

cholesterol in egg= 273 mg

cholesterol in cupcake = 18 mg

cholesterol in slice of pizza = 9 mg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

1 egg , 1 cupcake , 1 slice of pizza  = 300mg

3 cupcakes , 4 slices of pizza = 90mg

2 eggs , 1 cupcake = 564mg

Let egg be x , let cupcake be y and let pizza be y

x + y + z = 300 (equation 1)

0x + 3y + 4z = 90 (equation 2)

2x + y + 0z = 564 (equation 3)

Using equation 1 and equation 2

x + y + z = 300 (Multiply equation by 3)

0x + 3y + 4z = 90

3x + 3y +3z =900

0x +3y +4z = 90  (Subtracting the equations)

3x - z = 810  (equation 4)

Using equation 2 and equation 3

0x + 3y + 4z = 90

2x + y + 0z = 564 (Multiply equation by 3)

0x + 3y + 4z = 90

6x +3y + 0z = 1692 (Subtracting the equations)

-6x +4z =-1602  (equation 5)

Solving equation 4 and equation 5

3x - z = 810  therefore z =3x -810

Substituting z into equation 5

-6x +4(3x - 810) =-1602  

-6x + 12x - 3240 = -1602

6x = -1602+3240

6x = 1638

x = 273

Substituting x into z = 3x - 810

z = 3(273) - 810

z = 819-810

z = 9

Using equation 1 to find y

x + y + z = 300

273 + y + 9 = 300

282 + y = 300

y = 300-282

y = 18

Security A rounds every 2 minutes and 20 seconds in the gate 1. Security B rounds every 1 minute and 40 seconds in the gate 2. If they conduct rounds at the same time. After how many minutes they will rounds together again?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Time = 11\frac{2}{3}\ min[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Security\ A = 2\ mins, 20\ secs[/tex]

[tex]Security\ B = 1\ mins, 40\ secs[/tex]

Required

After how many minutes, will they round together

First, convert the given time to minutes

[tex]Security\ A = 2\ mins, 20\ secs[/tex]

[tex]Security\ A = 2\ mins+ 20\ secs[/tex]

[tex]Security\ A = 2\ mins+ \frac{20}{60}\ min[/tex]

[tex]Security\ A = 2\ mins+ \frac{1}{3}\ min[/tex]

[tex]Security\ A = 2\frac{1}{3}\ min[/tex]

[tex]Security\ B = 1\ mins, 40\ secs[/tex]

[tex]Security\ B = 1\ mins+ 40\ secs[/tex]

[tex]Security\ B = 1\ mins+ \frac{40}{60}\ min[/tex]

[tex]Security\ B = 1\frac{2}{3}\ min[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Security\ A = 2\frac{1}{3}\ min[/tex]

[tex]Security\ B = 1\frac{2}{3}\ min[/tex]

List out the multiples of the time of both security personnel take round.

[tex]Security\ A = 2\frac{1}{3}min,\ 4\frac{2}{3}min,\ 7min,\ 9\frac{1}{3}min,\ 11\frac{2}{3}min...[/tex]

[tex]Security\ B = 1\frac{2}{3}min,\ 3\frac{1}{3}min,\ 5min,\ 6\frac{2}{3}min,\ 8\frac{1}{3}min,\ 10min\ ,11\frac{2}{3}min,...[/tex]

In the above lists, the common time is:

[tex]Time = 11\frac{2}{3}\ min[/tex]

This implies that they go on round after [tex]11\frac{2}{3}\ min[/tex]

A company produces two types of jackets; windbreakers and rainbreakers. The company has at most 61 hours of finishing time per week and 67 hours of packaging time per week. Each windbreaker jacket takes 59 minutes of finishing time and 21 minutes of packaging time per week, whereas each rainbreaker jacket takes 58 minutes of finishing time and 34 minutes of packaging time per week. The company's profit for each windbreaker and rainbreaker jacket is 28 and 41, respectively. Let x denote the number of windbreaker jackets they should produce and y denote the number of rainbreaker jackets they should produce. The company wants to maximize profit. Set up the Linear Programming Problem for this situation.

Answers

Answer:

Max p = 28x + 41y

Subject to

59x + 58y ≤ 3660

21x + 34y ≤ 4020

x  ≥  0, y ≥ 0

Step-by-step explanation:

As given ,

                                       Windbreakers          Rain breakers              Total

Finishing time                         59 min                     58 min                   61 hr

Packaging time                        21 min                      34 min                   68 hr

Profit                                          28                                41

Let

The number of windbreaker jackets they should produce = x

The number of rain breaker jackets they should produce = y

As given,

The company wants to maximize profit.

⇒ Maximum Profit , p = 28x + 41 y

Now,

As 1 hour = 60 min

⇒61 hours = 61×60 = 3660 min

and 67 hours = 67×60 = 4020 min

∴ we get

The equations become

59x + 58y ≤ 3660

21x + 34y ≤ 4020

x  ≥  0, y ≥ 0

So, the Linear Programming Problem (LPP) for this problem is -

Max p = 28x + 41y

Subject to

59x + 58y ≤ 3660

21x + 34y ≤ 4020

x  ≥  0, y ≥ 0

If a+b=8, b+c=10 and c+a=12, what is the value of a+b+c?

The puzzle is solved by defining each variable in terms of another variable & a number & then making substitutions. Begin by taking each sum to define one of the variables in terms of the other. (Different combinations are available, but I’ll follow the a,b,c order.)

a+b=8 becomes a=8-b

b+c=10 becomes b=10-c

c+a=12 becomes c=12-a

Now subtract two of the equations that contain the same variable. I’ll pick two that contain an a: c+a =12 & a+b=8. Subtracting the latter from the former eliminates the “a”s, leaving c-b=4. Adding b to both sides to isolate c gives c=b+4. From above we can take b=10-c to substitute for b in c=b+4, giving us c=(10-c) + 4). Simplify the right side to c=14-c, add c to both sides, giving 2c=14, & then divide both sides by 2 to obtain c=7.

Replace the c in b=10-c with 7 to

If A = B and B = C, does A = C?

In mathematics = is assumed to be a transitive relationship. Transitivity means precisely what you stated: A = B and B = C implies A = C.

While it’s possible to use = to represent a non-transitive relationship this would be considered an abuse of notation. A ~ B or R(A, B) would be a better way to express the relation in this case.

Similar assumptions are made about operators like + and *. + is generally assumed to be commutative, whereas * can be used for noncommutative operations like matrix multiplication. E.g. A * B != B * A.

Equality in programming is another story entirely.

In many languages = is the assignment operator and == is the equality operator. Assignment is not transitive - it’s not even a relation.There are cases where the equality operator doesn’t define a transitive relation.
