The camera Melissa wanted for her birthday is on sale at 36% off the usual price. The amount of the discount is $180.00. What was the original price of the camera?
The original price of the camera was $1
Answer:
Original Price = $500
Step-by-step explanation:
The discount is 36%
and the discount amount is $180
Thus,
we can say that 180 is 36% of what number?
We let that number be "x" (original price). So we can say:
180 is 36% of x
In equation that will be:
180=36%*x
180=(36/100)*x
180=0.36x
So,
x = 180/0.36
x = $500
This is the original price.
Solve for w.
3w=84
Simplify your answer as much as possible.
w = 1
We can't really use w = 1 in this equation because it would be a false equation.
3w = 84
3(1) = 84
3 ≠ 84
If we were to solve for w then we can divide 3 to both sides.
3w = 84
3w/3 = 84/3
w = 28
______
Best Regards,
Wolfyy :)
Hey there!
3w = 84
DIVIDE 3 to BOTH SIDES
3w/3 = 84/3
CANCEL out: 3/3 because it give you 1
KEEP: 84/3 because it give you the w-value
NEW EQUATION: w = 84/3
SIMPLIFY IT!
w = 28
Therefore, your answer is: w = 28
Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!

A national park in Florida is approximately x 108 square meters in area. A New York State Park
is approximately 2 x 10?square meters in area. Based on these areas, how many times larger is the
national park than the state par?
Answer:
4. 35 times larger
Step-by-step explanation:
Doing Question #4 Only
4.
Before we see this problem's solution. Lets get a background.
Suppose something has an area of "A" sq. meters.
and
Suppose another land has an area of "B" sq. meters.
and suppose A > B
If we want to know how many times A is larger than B, we simply have to divide the larger one (A) by the smaller one (B).
Now, onto our question:
We want to know how many times larger the national is than state park. So we divide the area of national by the area of state. That would be:
[tex]\frac{7*10^8}{2*10^7}[/tex]
Since the numbers are in scientific notation, we look at the rule below on how to divide scientific notation numbers:
[tex]\frac{a*10^b}{c*10^d}=(\frac{a}{c})*10^{b-d}[/tex]
Now, we apply the rule:
[tex]\frac{7*10^8}{2*10^7}\\=\frac{7}{2}*10^{8-7}\\=3.5*10^1\\=3.5*10\\=35[/tex]
So, the national park is 35 times larger than the state park.
Simplify the expression |ab| if a<0 and b>0
Write the expression without the absolute value sign:
|2b|, where b<0
Write the expression without the absolute value sign:
|c|, where c<0
In simple terms, absolute value makes a negative number positive. So, |ab| simplifies to -ab when a<0 and b>0, |2b| simplifies to -2b when b<0, and |c| simplifies to -c when c<0.
Explanation:The expression |ab| simply represents the absolute value of the product of a and b. Absolute value is a mathematical function that determines the distance of a number from zero. In this case, as a is less than 0 (negative) and b is greater than 0 (positive), the product ab would be negative. But absolute value always returns a positive output or zero, so, |ab| would be -ab because absolute value would remove the negative sign.
The expression |2b|, where b is less than 0, would simplify to -2b, as b is negative so absolute value removes the negative sign.
Lastly, the expression |c|, when c is negative, simplifies to -c as the absolute value would remove the negative sign from c.

#SPJ2
Final answer:
To simplify expressions with absolute value signs, one must take into account the sign of the variables involved. If the result inside the absolute value sign is negative, then removing the absolute value signs will result in its positive counterpart.
Explanation:
When simplifying the expression |ab| given that a<0 and b>0, we consider that since a is negative and b is positive, their product ab will be negative. However, the absolute value signs indicate the positive magnitude of the result, thus |ab| = -ab.
For the expression |2b| where b<0, since b is negative, 2b will also be negative. Removing the absolute value sign should result in a positive number; thus |2b| = -2b.
Lastly, with |c| where c<0, the absolute value of a negative number c is the positive version of the number. Therefore, |c| = -c.

Can someone help me with this problem? It’s Special Right Triangles: Decimal Answer. Round to the nearest tenth. Thank you ! 10 points
Answer:
h = 1.4
c = 2.8
Step-by-step explanation:
For each problem, remember the special triangle side ratios then use a proportion. To solve, isolate the variable.
For the triangle with the variable h:
Since two of the angles are 45, this is an isosceles triangle. All isosceles triangles have two equal sides that are not the hypotenuse.
In a right isosceles triangle, the ratio for regular side to hypotenuse is 1 to √2.
[tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt2} =\frac{h}{2} \\h = 2\frac{1}{\sqrt2} \\h = \frac{2}{\sqrt2} \\h = \frac{2\sqrt2}{2} \\h = \sqrt{2}[/tex]
h = √2
h ≈ 1.4
For the triangle with the variable c:
The is an equilateral triangle cut in half because the angles are 30 and 60.
The side ratio of altitude to hypotenuse is √3 to 2.
[tex]\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} =\frac{c}{4} \\\sqrt{3} = \frac{c}{2}\\2\sqrt3 = c[/tex]
c = 2√2
c ≈ 2.8
Given O below, the arcs wx and 72 must be congruent.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
For the arcs WX and YZ to be congruent.
The angles subtended at the centre of the circle must be congruent.
This is not the case here as arc WX subtends 80° and arc YZ subtends 35°
Thus arc WX and arc YZ are not congruent.
A bag contains green marbles and red marbles, 42 in total. The number of green
marbles is 6 more than 5 times the number of red marbles. How many green marbles
are there?
Answer:
The number of green marbles are 36.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Total number of marble bag contains is 42.
The number of green marbles is 6 more than 5 times the number of red marbles.
Let the number of red marbles be [tex]x[/tex].
So, the number of green marbles = [tex]6+5x[/tex]
Now, to get the number of green marbles.
According to question:
[tex]x+(6+5x)=42[/tex]
[tex]6x+6=42[/tex]
Subtracting 6 in both sides :
[tex]6x+6-6=42-6[/tex]
[tex]6x=36[/tex]
Now, by dividing 6 on both sides:
[tex]6x\div 6=36\div 6[/tex]
[tex]x=6[/tex]
The number of red marbles are 6.
And, the number of green marbles are [tex]6+5x[/tex]
= [tex]6+5\times 6[/tex]
=[tex]6+30[/tex]
= [tex]36[/tex]
Therefore, the number of green marbles are 36.

The price of a video game was reduced from $60 to $45. by what percentage was the price of the video game reduced what is the answer show the steps
Answer:
Hey.
By what percentage was the price of the video games reduced ?
By 25%.
Step-by-step explanation:
$60 is the 100% price.
Now we have to find what percentage belongs to the reduced price, $45.
45×100/60 = 75.
75% is the percentage of the reduced price.
We can find the difference between them by doing a substraction.
100%-75% = 25%.
Hope I helped you !
a solid consists of a hemisphere and a cone which shares the common base. the cone has a base radius of 21 cm.l, a height of 28cm and a slant height of 35cm. find the volume and the total surface area of the solid.
Answer:(i) 84 cm.
(ii) 5635π cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
(i)
The volume of the cone = 1/3 π r^2 h
= 1/3 π 35^2 h.
The volume of the hemisphere = 2/3 π 35^3.
As the volume of the cone is 1 1/5 ( = 6/5) times the volume of the hemisphere:
1/3 π 35^2 h = 2/3 π 35^3 * 6/5
h = 2/3 π 35^3 * 6/5 / 1/3 π 35^2
h = 84 cm (answer).
(ii) Surface area of the hemisphere = 2 π * 35^2 = 2450π cm^2.
Surface area of the cone = π r l where l = slant height.
l = √(35^2 + 84^2) = 91 cm.
So the surface area of the cone = 35*91 π = 3185π.
So the total surface area of the solid is 3185π + 2450π
= 5635π cm^2.

A taxi charges a base fee plus $0.75/km.
A 10-km trip costs $8.70.
a) What is the rate of change in this situation?
b) Write an equation for the cost of hiring a taxi in terms of length of the trip.
c) What does initial value represent in this situation.
a) The rate of change in this situation is 0.75 dollars/km
b) The equation for the cost of hiring a taxi in terms of length of the
trip is y = 0.75 x + b
c) The initial value represents in this situation is $1.2
Step-by-step explanation:
The given is:
A taxi charges a base fee plus $0.75/km.A 10-km trip costs $8.70∵ A rate of change is a rate that describes how one quantity
changes in relation to another quantity
∵ The unit cost of a taxi is 0.75 dollars for each 1 kilometer
∴ The rate of change = 0.75 dollars/km
a) The rate of change in this situation is 0.75 dollars/km
Assume that the cost of hiring a taxi is $y for length of a trip x km
and a base fee of $b
∵ The length of the trip = x km
∵ The cost per km = $0.75
∵ The base fee = $b
∵ The cost of hiring a taxi = $y
- Write an equation for the the cost of hiring a taxi
∴ y = 0.75 x + b
b) The equation for the cost of hiring a taxi in terms of length
of the trip is y = 0.75 x + b
∵ The length of the trip is 10 km
∴ x = 10
∵ The cost of the hiring a taxi is $8.70
∴ y = 8.70
- Substitute these values in the equation of part (b)
∵ y = 0.75 x + b
∴ 8.70 = 0.75(10) + b
∴ 8.70 = 7.5 + b
- Subtract 7.5 from both sides
∴ 1.2 = b
∵ b is the base fee
∴ b is the initial value
∴ The initial value = $1.2
c) The initial value represents in this situation is $1.2

Answer:
a) $0.75/Km
b) [tex]F(x)=1.2+0.75x[/tex]
c) The fixed base charge
Step-by-step explanation:
We know the taxi charges $0.75 per km and we are told a 10-Km trip costs $8.70. We can clearly see there is a base charge and a variable charge
a) The rate of change tells us the variation of the charges with the distance of the trip. In this case, the rate of change is $0.75/Km
b) If x is the length of the trip in Km, the equation of the total fare F(x) is
[tex]F(x)=A+0.75x[/tex]
We know a 10-Km trip costs $8.70. Replacing those values would give us the value of A
8.70=A+0.75(10)
8.70=A+7.5
[tex]=> A=8.70-7.5= 1.2[/tex]
Using the value of A we have
[tex]\boxed{F(x)=1.2+0.75x}[/tex]
c) The initial value represents the charge a customer has to pay even if they don't travel any distance, i.e. the fixed base charge
The table below shows the numbers of tickets sold at a movie theater on Friday.
NUMBER OF TICKETS SOLD
Day
Adult Tickets
Children's
Tickets
1,678
976
Friday
Saturday
The number of each type of ticket sold on Saturday is described below.
• Adult tickets-2 times as many as the number of adult tickets sold
on Friday
• Children's tickets-3 times as many as the number of children's
tickets sold on Friday
Complete the table above to show the numbers of tickets sold on Saturday.
What is the total number of tickets sold over these two days?
Answer:
Number of Adult's tickets sold on Saturday = 3,356
Number of Children's tickets sold on Saturday = 2, 928
Total number of tickets sold over these two days is 8,938.
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, the number of tickets sold on FRIDAY:
Adult Ticket sold = 1,678
Children's Tickets sold = 976
So, the total number of tickets sold on Friday
= Sum of ( Adult + Children's ) tickets = 1,678 + 976 = 2,654 .... (1)
The number of tickets sold on SATURDAY:
Adult Ticket sold = 2 times the number of adult tickets sold on Friday
= 1,678 x 2 = 3,356
Children's Tickets sold = 3 times the number of children's tickets sold on Friday.
= 976 x 3 = 2, 928
So, the total number of tickets sold on Saturday
= Sum of ( Adult + Children's ) tickets = 3,356 + 2,928 = 6, 284 .... (2)
Now, the total number of tickets booked in these two days :
Sum of tickets booked on (Friday + Saturday)
= 2,654 + 6, 284 = 8,938
Hence, total number of tickets sold over these two days is 8,938.
A flock of 20 seagulls merges with a flock of cardinals. The new flock is bigger than either of the original ones, but still, it is no larger than 100 birds. How many birds were in the flock of cardinals?
There are 80 birds in the flock of cardinals.
Solution:Given:- A flock of 20 seagulls or we can say
Number of seagulls in a flock = 20
The new flock is no larger than 100 birds
So, let Total number of birds of new flock = 100
To find out the number of birds in cardinals we have to subtract number of seagull in flock from total number of birds of new flock.
Number of birds in cardinal = Total number of birds of new flock - Number of seagulls in a flock
Number of birds in cardinal = 100 – 20 =80
Hence there are 80 birds in the flock of cardinals.
The answer explains how to determine the number of birds in the flock of cardinals based on the given conditions.
The number of birds in the flock of cardinals can be calculated as follows:
Let x be the number of birds in the flock of cardinals.
Since the new flock is no larger than 100 birds, the total number of birds after merging is 20 (seagulls) + x (cardinals).
Therefore, the equation to represent this situation is x + 20 ≤ 100, and solving for x, we get x ≤ 80. Thus, there were at most 80 birds in the flock of cardinals.
What is the equation of a line with a slope of −4 and a point (−2, 5) on the line? Express the equation in the form of y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Answer:
y = - 4x - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + b ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Here m = - 4, thus
y = - 4x + b ← is the partial equation
To find b substitute (- 2, 5) into the partial equation
5 = 8 + b ⇒ b = 5 - 8 = - 3
y = - 4x - 3 ← equation of line
Answer:
y= -4x-3
Step-by-step explanation:
to find this, the first step is easy. We know the slope is -4 so we have y= -4x+b. Then we to find the y intersept, so we take the point that we have (-2,5) and make x (the first number) equal to 0. to do this we add two, which means to subtract 8 from give because the slope is -4. This gives the point (0,-3). So the equation is y= -4x-3.

Step-by-step explanation:
If f(x)=2x^6+x^5+32x+32, is (x+2) a factor of f(x).
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
By the factor theorem if (x + 2) is a factor of f(x) then f(- 2) = 0
f(- 2)
= 2[tex](-2)^{6}[/tex] + [tex]-2)^{5}[/tex] + 32(- 2) + 32
= 2(64) - 32 - 64 + 32
= 128 - 32 - 64 + 32
= 64 ≠ 0
Hence (x + 2) is not a factor of f(x)
Answer: By the factor theorem if (x + 2) is a factor of f(x) then f(- 2) = 0
f(- 2)
= 2(-2)^{6} + -2)^{5} + 32(- 2) + 32
= 2(64) - 32 - 64 + 32
= 128 - 32 - 64 + 32
= 64 ≠ 0
Hence (x + 2) is not a factor of f(x)
An explosion causes debris to rise vertically with an initial speed of 120 feet per second. The formula h equals negative 16 t squared plus 120 t describes the height of the debris above the ground, h, in feet, t seconds after the explosion. When will the debris be 56 feet above the ground?
Answer:
The debris will be at a height of 56 ft when time is 0.5 s and 7 s.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Initial speed of debris is, [tex]s=120\ ft/s[/tex]
The height 'h' of the debris above the ground is given as:
[tex]h(t)=-16t^2+120t[/tex]
As per question, [tex]h(t)=56\ ft[/tex]. Therefore,
[tex]56=-16t^2+120t[/tex]
Rewriting the above equation into a standard quadratic equation and solving for 't', we get:
[tex]-16t^2+120t-56=0\\\textrm{Dividing by -8 throughout, we get}\\\frac{-16}{-8}t^2+\frac{120}{-8}t-\frac{56}{-8}=0\\2t^2-15t+7=0[/tex]
Using quadratic formula to solve for 't', we get:
[tex]t=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\t=\frac{-(-15)\pm \sqrt{(-15)^2-4(2)(7)}}{2(2)}\\\\t=\frac{15\pm \sqrt{225-56}}{4}\\\\t=\frac{15\pm\sqrt{169}}{4}\\\\t=\frac{15\pm 13}{4}\\\\t=\frac{15-13}{4}\ or\ t=\frac{15+13}{4}\\\\t=\frac{2}{4}\ or\ t=\frac{28}{4}\\\\t=0.5\ s\ or\ t=7\ s[/tex]
Therefore, the debris will reach a height of 56 ft twice.
When time [tex]t=0.5\ s[/tex] during the upward journey, the debris is at height of 56 ft.
Again after reaching maximum height, the debris falls back and at [tex]t=7\ s[/tex], the height is 56 ft.
Final answer:
To find when the debris will be 56 feet above the ground, we solve the quadratic equation -16t² + 120t = 56 using the quadratic formula. This will yield two possible solutions for t, which are the times at which the debris reaches 56 feet.
Explanation:
To determine when the debris will be 56 feet above the ground, we need to solve the given quadratic equation for t, which represents time in seconds. The equation provided is:
h = -16t² + 120t
Where h is the height in feet. To find the times when the debris is 56 feet above the ground, we set h to 56:
56 = -16t² + 120t
This equation can be solved by factoring or using the quadratic formula. To factor, we first set the equation to zero:
-16t² + 120t - 56 = 0
16t² - 120t + 56 = 0
Dividing by 4
4t² - 30t + 14 = 0
Again reducing by dividing by 2
2t² - 15t + 7 = 0
Now, we need two numbers which add to give 15 and multiply to give 14.
The two numbers are 1 and 14.
2t²- 14t - t + 7 = 0
2t (t - 7) - 1(t - 7) = 0
(t - 7)(2t - 1) = 0
t = 7 or 1/2
Since 1/2 second cannot be an answer, the required answer is 7 seconds

Answer:
-6/7? I think I'm right but make sure to comment me to let me know!
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay so the equation for slope intercept form is y2-y1/x2-x1. So we can substitute -3-3=-6 and -2-5=-7 So I think you get -6/7

EXPERT ANSWER,WILL GIVE BRAINLEST
Answer:
yes you can look below for details
Step-by-step explanation:
one reason is because opposite sides are congruent, which means that it is a parallelogram.
another way is to see if the two triangles created by an diagonal is congruent:
construct AC to get two triangles ABC and ADC
AC =CA because of reflection
BA=DC because its given
BC=DA because its also Given
so
triangle ABC= triangle CDA because of SSS(side side side)
