if you pay $26.50 for an item, including 6% sales tax, what was the original price?

Answers

Answer 1
The original price was $24.91
Answer 2
You can do this by dividing by 1.06

26.5/1.06 = 25.00 dollars. You can check this by figuring out the sales tax separately

25 * (6/100) = 1.50

If you add 1.50 to 25 dollars, you get 26.5 just as you should.

On a map, 1.5 centimeters represents a distance of 45 kilometers. If two points on the map are 0.8 centimeters apart, what is the actual distance between the two points?

Answers

Write a proportion
centimeters / kilometers
1.5 / 45 = 0.8 / x
cross multiply
(1.5 * x ) = (45 * 0.8)
1.5x = 36
divide both sides by 1.5
x = 24

The actual distance between the two points is 24 kilometers.

The age of a father is 2 less than 7 times the age of his son. In 3 years, the sum of their ages will be 52. If the son age is s years, which equation models this situation?

a. (s+3)+[(7s-2)+3}=52
b. 3s+3+3(7s-2)= 52
c. s+(7s-2)=52
d. (s-3)+(7s-2)-3=52

Answers

First,
the age of the son: s
the age of the father is 2 less than 7 times the age of his son: 7s - 2
In 3 years, the sum of their ages will be 52,
In 3 years, the age of the sun will increase 3, so s+3. Also, the age of his father also increase 3, (7s - 2) + 3

(s+3) + [(7s-2) + 3] = 52 is the equation. 

If two figures are congruent, their perimeters are equal true or false?

Answers

This is true. The term congruent means that the shape is of exactly equal size. If this is true, then every side length would match for each shape. If this is true, the perimeter would also be exactly the same for each shape. Think of something that is congruent as being an exact copy of the original, with no change in size or shape.

What are the intervals where the function is increasing and decreasing, and what do they represent about the distance and height? (6 points) Part B: What is an approximate average rate of change of the graph from x = 22 to x = 26, and what does this rate represent? (4 points

Answers

the complete question in the attached figure

part A

the x intercept 0 is the point where the ball was hit, the x intercept 20 is the point where the ball fell back to the ground, 20 feet away from the kicker.

the function is increasing in the interval x∈(0, 10) and decreasing in x∈(10, 20) 
this means that the height is increasing in the interval  (0, 10) and decreasing as x goes through the interval (10,20)
the distance from the kicker is increasing during the whole interval (0, 20)

part B

the rate of change represents the slope of the secant line from A to B. It approximates the rate at which f(x) decreases or increases in the interval 

x =[A, B]

from x = 22 to x = 26-------------- > the function does not exist

*A 3-D rectangle 15 ft. length the back rectangle 12 ft. width the side 35 ft. width front*

Answers

first answer is 81.39 but can't picture the second one without a figure

Answer:

1)  the slant height of the pyramid is 50 meters.

2) there are (approximately) a total of 80 ft of laser beams.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The height of the pyramid (30 m) and half of the length of its base (40 m) form a rectangular triangle, where the slant height is its hypotenuse (H). From Pythagorean theorem:

H^2 = 30^2 + 40^2

H = √2500

H = 50 m

2) In the figure attached the rectangular prism is shown (point E was added).

The length of the laser beams is the addition of the segments AD to segment CB (which are equal).

We can make a rectangular triangle between points ECD. From Pythagorean theorem:

ED^2 = EC^2 + CD^2

ED = √(12^2 + 35^2)

ED = 37 ft

We can make a rectangular triangle between points AED. From Pythagorean theorem:

AD^2 = EA^2 + ED^2

AD = √(15^2 + 37^2)

AD ≈ 40

Then, there are (approximately) a total of 80 ft of laser beams.

Answer:

Pentagon and an OCTAGON

Step-by-step explanation:

Polygons are are plane figures with three or more sides. Since plane figures with 3sides are triangles and those with 4sides are quadrilaterals, I will take a plane figure of 5sides as one of the two polygons Ellen is drawing

A plane figure with 5sides and 5angles is a PENTAGON

If one of the polygons has 3 more angles than the other, then the other polygon she is drawing was a polygon with (5+3) i.e 8sides and 8angles. This polygon is known as an OCTAGON

Based on the conclusion, the shape Ellen could be drawing is a PENTAGON and an OCTAGON

C.] [tex] \frac{3}{8} [/tex]

Answers

These are five questions and five answers.

Part 1.] Identify the following series as arithmetic, geometric, both, or neither. Includes picture

Answer: arithmetic

Justification:

The arithmetic series are those in which the distance (difference) between any consecutive terms is constant, so you can find the term An adding the difference to the previous term, A(n-1).

In this case the series is:


∑ (3 + na) =>
n=1

Term1: 3 + a
Term2: 3 + 2a
Term3: 3 + 3a
Term3: 3 + 4a

As you see, the difference between two consecutive terms is a, which shows that it is an arithmetic series.


Part 2.] Evaluate C(3, 3)
A.] 1
B.] 6
C.] 24

Answer: option A) 1.

Explanation:

The formula for combinations is Cm,n = m! / [n! (m - n)! ]

So, for C3,3, C3,3 = 3! / [3! 0!] = 3! / 3! = 1.

From this you might learn that Cm,m for any m is always 1.

Part 3.] Evaluate C(6,3)
A.] 20
B.] 120
C.] 720

Answer: option A) 20

Explanation:

Use the same formula, Cm,n = m! / [n! (m - n)! ]

C6,3 = 6! / [3! 3! ] = 6*5*4 / (3*2*1) = 5*4 = 20

Part 4.] How many subsets of four elements each exist in a set of seven elements?
A.] 4!
B.] C(7, 4)
C.] P(7, 4) 

Answer: option B) C(7,4)

Explanation

You have to select collections of 4 elements from a set of 7 elements, and must realize that the order is irrelevant, i.e. it is the same the set ABCD as the set ACBD or DCAB or any combination of those four elements. So, the answer is a combination and not a permutation.

The number of subsets of 4 elements that you can form with 7 elements is: C(7,4), which is the option B.

Part 5.] What is the probability of having 3 children that are all boys?
A.] 1/2
B.] 1/8
C.] 3/8

Answer: option B: 1/8

Explanation:

The number of possible outcomes is 2 * 2 *  2 = 8

Only one of those outcomes is for all boys = 1

Therefore the probability is 1/8

You can see that representing the possible outcomes using B for boys and G for girls:

1) BBB (three boys)
2) BBG

3) BGB
4) BGG

5) GBB
6) GBG

7) GGB
8) GGG

Those are the 8 possible outcomes and as seen only one is for 3 boys.

A toy rocket is launched from a platform 42 feet above the ground at a speed of 91 feet per second. The height of the rocket in feet is given by the polynomial −16t^2 + 91t + 42, where t is the time in seconds. How high will the rocket be after 3 seconds? HELP ASAP!!

A. 122 feetB. 218 feetC. 93 feetD. 2570 feet

Answers

Lets get started!

height = -16t² + 91t + 42 
After 3 sec means, t = 3, so we substitute t with 3

H = -16(3)² + 91(3) + 42
    = -144 + 273 + 42
    = 171 feet

The height of the rocket after 3 seconds is 171 feet.

What is a function?

A function is defined as a relation between the set of inputs having exactly one output each.

The height = -16t² + 91t + 42

After 3 sec means, t = 3, so we substitute t with 3

In order to find the height of the rocket after t seconds we plugin t = 3 in the function.

height H = -16t² + 91t + 42

H = -16(3)² + 91(3) + 42

   = -144 + 273 + 42

   = 171 feet

Thus, the height of the rocket after 3 seconds = 171 feet.

Carly has 5 times as many markers as camden.Toegether they have 30 markers.How many markers does Carly have? How many markers does Camden have

Answers

Carly has 5 and Camden has 6

5x6=30

Answer:

number of markers Camden has = [tex]5[/tex]

number of markers Carly has = [tex] 25[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of markers Camden has = x

now it is given that Carly has 5 times as many markers as Camden has

Number of markers Carly has = 5 ( number of markers Camden has )

                                                   = [tex]5x[/tex]

now the total number of markers = 30

number of markers with Carly + number of markers with Camden = 30

so we have

[tex]5x+x = 30[/tex]

[tex]6x =30[/tex]   ( adding like terms x and 5x)

[tex]x=\frac{30}{6}[/tex] ( dividing both sides by 6)

[tex]x= 5[/tex]

hence we have

number of markers Camden has = [tex]x=5[/tex]

number of markers Carly has = [tex]5x= 5(5) = 25[/tex]

Slope from equation
Problem
What is the slope of the line?

Answers

y = -2x + 6 - 2
y = -2x + 4
The slope of the line is -2.

Please find below the given equation-

y + 2 = -2 ( x - 3 )

y + 2 = -2 x - 2(- 3)

y + 2 = -2 x + 6

y = -2 x + 6 - 2

y = -2 x + 4

Let's compare this equation with the form y = mx +c

By comparing we get,

m = -2 and c = 4

We know, in y = mx + c , slope of the line is given by m

Here m = -2, as discussed above

Therefore the slope of the given line is -2

Solve the following equation. Then place the correct number in the box provided. 9(x - 6) = 8(x + 6)

x=

Answers

Hello!

9(x - 6) = 8(x + 6)

The first step to take here is to apply the Distributive Property, which is
a(b + c) = ab + ac.

9(x - 6) = 8(x + 6)
9x - 54 = 8x + 48

After this, you want to begin to eliminate terms to ultimately isolate x; you can subtract 8x from both sides first:

9x - 54 = 8x + 48
x - 54 = 48

Finally, add 54 to both sides to get x by itself:

x - 54 = 48
x = 102

Answer:
x = 102
The answer is 102.
9(x -6) = 8(x+6)
9x - 54= 8x +48
x- 54= 48
x= 102

What is the solution of x+4/2x-1<0 ?

Answers

To solve the inequality x + 4/2x - 1 < 0, first find the critical value x = 1/2. Then, test the intervals to determine the solution set x < 1/2.

To find the solution of the inequality x + 4/2x - 1 < 0, we can follow these steps:

First, find the critical values by setting the denominator, 2x - 1, equal to zero and solve for x. The critical value is x = 1/2.

Next, test the intervals created by the critical value in the original inequality x + 4/2x - 1 < 0. This helps determine the solution set which is x < 1/2.

Carolyn has cut a piece of ribbon 29 centimeters long from a roll. which instrument would she use to measure the length of the piece of ribbon?

Answers

Final answer:

Carolyn would use a ruler to measure the length of the piece of ribbon.

Explanation:

To measure the length of a piece of ribbon, Carolyn would use a ruler as the instrument. A ruler is a tool used for measuring small items and distances. It is commonly used for measuring in inches, which is the appropriate unit for short lengths like a piece of ribbon. Carolyn can align one end of the ribbon with the zero mark on the ruler and then extend the ribbon along the ruler to measure its length accurately.

The ruler's precision in measuring small distances, typically in inches, allows Carolyn to obtain a detailed and accurate measurement for the ribbon's length. Aligning the ribbon's end with the ruler's zero mark ensures a standardized starting point for consistency in measurements. This straightforward method showcases the practicality and ease with which rulers facilitate precise length measurements, making them essential tools for tasks requiring accuracy in determining dimensions.
