In response to very high demand, a basketball jersey has been marked up by 25% and is now selling for $95.00. How much was the jersey before the mark-up?

Answers

Answer 1

76 is the correct answer

Answer 2

The price of the jersey before the mark-up = $76

What is percentage?

"A number that can be expressed as a fraction of 100."

What is an equation?

"It is a mathematical statement which consists of equal symbol between two algebraic expressions."

For given question,

A basketball jersey has been marked up by 25% and is now selling for $95.00

Let 'm' be the price of the jersey before the mark-up.

So, we get an equation,

⇒ m + (25 percent of m) = 95

25 percent of m

= [tex]\frac{25}{100}\times m[/tex]

= 0.25 m

so, the equation becomes,

⇒ m + 0.25 m = 95

⇒ 1.25 m = 95

⇒ m = 76

Therefore, the price of the jersey before the mark-up = $76

A junior baseball team plays 16 games each summer. Last summer the team scored an average of 3.25 runs per game during the first half of the season. The tteam scored a total of 29 runs during the second half of the season. How many runs were scored by the team last season?

Answers

Final answer:

To determine the total number of runs scored by the team last season, we calculate the runs from both halves of the season. The team scored 55 runs in total, with 26 runs in the first half and 29 runs in the second half.

Explanation:

To calculate the total number of runs scored by the junior baseball team last season, we need to add the runs from the first half of the season to the runs from the second half of the season. The team played a total of 16 games, so the first half constitutes 8 games. They scored an average of 3.25 runs per game during the first half. To find the total runs for the first half, we multiply the average runs per game by the number of games:

First-half runs = Average runs per game × Number of games in the first half

First -half runs = 3.25 runs/game × 8 games = 26 runs

For the second half of the season, the team scored a total of 29 runs. Therefore, the total runs scored last season is the sum of the first and second halves:

Total runs = First half runs + Second half runs

Total runs = 26 runs + 29 runs = 55 runs

So, the team scored 55 runs in total last season.

What is the measure of the angle formed by the minute hand and the hour hand of a clock when the clock shows 4:00?

Answers

The answer to this is 120. 

Answer:

[tex]120^o[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the measure of the angle formed by the minute hand and the hour hand of a clock when the clock shows 4:00.

Since we know that clock is a circle made of 360 degrees.

Angle described by minute hand in one minute equals to 6 degrees (360/60). Angle described by hour hand in 1 hour equals 30 degrees (360/12).

At 4:00 minute hand will be at 12 and hour hand will be at 4. So we will multiply 4 by 30 to find the measure of angle formed when the clock shows 4:00.

[tex]\text{Measure of angle}=4\times 30^o[/tex]

[tex]\text{Measure of angle}=120^o[/tex]

Therefore, the measure of the angle formed by the minute hand and the hour hand of a clock, when the clock shows 4:00 is 120 degrees.

Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the leg of the triangle

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse.

We know one of the legs is 6 and the hypotenuse is 10

6^2 +x^2 = 10^2

36+ x^2 = 100

Subtract 36 from each side

36-36 +x^2 = 100-36

x^2 = 64

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(64)

Sue plays on a soccer team. In one game this season, she scored 8 goals, which was one-fourth of the goals she scored for the whole season. How many goals in all did she score this season? (Please show work)

Answers

8 × 4 = 32
or
8 ÷ 1/4 = 32
or
x = number of goals Sue scored this season

x × 1/4 = 8
now divide both sides by 1/4
x × 1/4÷1/4 = 8÷1/4
x = 32

Answer: 32 goals in all scored Sue this season.
Final answer:

Sue scored 8 goals in one game, which was one-fourth of her total goals for the season. Multiply 8 goals times 4, we find that Sue scored a total of 32 goals for the season.

Explanation:

The problem describes Sue's performance in soccer which tells us that the 8 goals she scored in one game are equivalent to one-fourth of the total goals she scored for the season. To find the total score for the whole season, we have to multiply the periods' score by 4 which is the quotient of the total goals to the periods' goals. So, if 8 goals equals to one-fourth, her total score for that season is 8 goals * 4 = 32 goals. So, Sue, who plays on a soccer team, scored a total of 32 goals for the season.

75 percent of 88 is the same as 60 percent of what number?

Answers

First we need to know 75% of 88.
To find this number we multiply 88 by 0.75. 
Hence, 0.75 * 88 = 66

Therefore, 60% of a certain number equals 66.
Then 1% of that certain number equals 66 / 60
Finally, to find our number (which equals 100%) we multiply by 100.
So 66 / 60 * 100 = 110.

Hence, 75 percent of 88 is the same as 60 percent of 110.

James believes the honor roll students at his school have an unfair advantage in being assigned to the math class they request. He asked 500 students at his school the following questions: "Are you on the honor roll?" and "Did you get the math class you requested?" The results are shown in the table below:

Honor roll Not on honor roll Total
Received math class requested 315 64 379
Did not get math class requested 41 80 121
Total 356 144 500

Help James determine if all students at his school have an equal opportunity to get the math class they requested. Show your work and explain your process for determining the fairness of the class assignment process.

Answers

Based on the table:

 Honor students:

315/356 = 88.48% is the total number of people who got the math class requested whereas

 Non-honor students:

64/144 = 44.44% did not get the math class requested

 

So…

 

They will not have equal chance to get the math class they demanded, if both percent’s were equal, it would be just. For honors students, 88% of them will get the class they demanded, but for non honors students it's 44%.

A trinket company has a warehouse that contains 50,000 trinkets. At the end of each day, a truck picks up 4,000 trinkets to deliver to the trinket store. When the warehouse drops below 15,000 trinkets, the company will begin producing more trinkets to restore the inventory. 1) Write an equation for the number of trinkets in the factory after days. 2) After how many days will the factory begin producing trinkets?

Answers

After 9 days they will begin producing new trinkets.

The expression for the number of trinkets in the company after d days would be 50000-4000d.  The inequality going along with it would be:

50000-4000d<15000

We start by cancelling 50000 from both sides by subtracting:
50000-4000d<15000-50000
-4000d<-35000

Divide both sides by -4000:
-4000d/-4000 < -35000/-4000
d > 8.75

This would round up to 9 days.

What is Unitary Method?

The unitary technique involves first determining the value of a single unit, followed by the value of the necessary number of units.

For example, Let's say Ram spends 36 Rs. for a dozen (12) bananas.

12 bananas will set you back 36 Rs. 1 banana costs 36 x 12 = 3 Rupees.

As a result, one banana costs three rupees. Let's say we need to calculate the price of 15 bananas.

This may be done as follows: 15 bananas cost 3 rupees each; 15 units cost 45 rupees

Given:

A female bunny gained one pound per week for six weeks.

So, Female Bunny Weigh in Six weeks= 6 Pounds.

Now, male bunny gained two pounds per week for six weeks.

So, Male Bunny Weigh in Six weeks= 12 Pounds.

Thus, Male Bunny weigh more by (12 - 6)= 6 pounds.

Hence, Male Bunny has 6 Pounds more than female Bunny.

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the line y = x + 4 and passes through the point (6, 5)?

y = x + 3
y = x + 7
y = 3x – 13
y = 3x + 5

Answers

Answer:

b

Step-by-step explanation:

Final answer:

The equation of the line parallel to y = x + 4 passing through the point (6, 5) is y = x - 1, which has the same slope as the given line but a different y-intercept, determined by the given point.

Explanation:

The question asks for the equation of a line that is parallel to y = x + 4 and passes through the point (6, 5). Since the line we are looking for must be parallel, it will have the same slope as the given line, which in this case is 1 (since the coefficient of x is 1 in the given equation). The general form of the line we're looking for is y = x + b, where b is the y-intercept. To find the specific equation, we substitute the point (6, 5) into the equation to solve for b:

5 = (1)(6) + b
5 = 6 + b
b = 5 - 6
b = -1

Thus, the equation of the line that meets the conditions is y = x - 1, which is not represented in the options given. Since none of the options match, it's possible that there might have been a mistake in the options provided or an error in the transmission of the question. However, based on the information given, this is the correct equation for the line parallel to y = x + 4 that passes through (6, 5).
