On Monday Mrs. Wise bought 3 lbs of apples at $4 per lb. On Tuesday, apples were on sale for 20% off so she bought another 5 lbs. What was the price of apples on Tuesday? NEED ANSWER ASAP!

Answers

p=(3*4+5*4*(100-20)/100)/8

p=(12+16)/8

p=$3.50/lb

hopefully this is correct

It is given that on Tuesday, apples were on sale for 20% off. Now, we know that on Monday Mrs. Wise bought 3 lbs of apples at $4 per lb. This means that if we have a 20% off on Tuesday then this must be with respect to the price on Monday which is $4. Thus the price of Tuesday can be calculated as:

[tex] 4-\frac{20}{100}\times 4=4-0.8=3.2 [/tex]

Thus, the per pound price of apples on Tuesday was $3.2

Line r passes through points (2, 11) and (10, 4). Line s is perpendicular to r. What is the slope of line s?

Answers

Answer: 8/7

------------------------------------------------------

Work Shown:

Use the slope formula to find the slope of line r
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (4-11)/(10-2)
m = -7/8

The slope of line r is -7/8

Now we take the negative reciprocal. In other words, we flip the fraction and flip the sign from negative to positive.

Flip the fraction: -7/8 ---> -8/7
Flip the sign: -8/7 ----> +8/7

The slope of line s is 8/7

Note how multiplying the slope of line r (-7/8) and the slope of line s (8/7) yields -1. Multiplying any two perpendicular slopes leads to a product of -1. This is excluding vertical lines as the slope is undefined.

What is a circle?

The circle is the locus of a point whose distance from a fixed point is constant i.e center (h, k). The equation of the circle is given by

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where h, k is the coordinate of the center of the circle on the coordinate plane and r is the radius of the circle.

Here,
Given equation

(x+15)²+(y−12)²=25

The above equation is the equation of the circle, so the longest distance that person could be from the lamp and be detected is the radius of the circle,

Which is given as,
r² = 25
r = √25
r = 5

Thus, the required greatest distance, in feet, a person could be from the lamp and be detected is 5 ft. Option A is correct.

Hello there! I can help you! So there is one blue counter added to two green counters. To solve this problem, we can write and solve an equation. Set it up like this:

12 + 1x = 8 + 2x

We do this, because there are already some of each color in the bag. 1x makes one counter each and 2x is two counters for every blue counter in the bag. Let's solve it. Subtract 1x from each side. 1x - 1x cancels out. 2x - 1x is 1x or just simply x. That simplifies to 12 = 8 + x. Subtract 8 from each side to get the variable by itself. 8 - 8 cancels out. 12 - 8 is 4. That leaves 4 = x. Nothing else needs to be done. Let's plug the value in and see if it works. 1 * 4 is 4. 12 + 4 is 16. 2 * 4 is 8. 8 + 8 is 16. 16 = 16. There. x = 4. 4 blue counters and 8 green counters were added to the bag.

Solve by factoring write the steps.
x2−7x+10=0
Please help show me all the steps and the answers

Answers

x^2−7x+10=0

Step 1: Factor left side of equation.
(x−2)(x−5)=0
Step 2: Set factors equal to 0.
x−2=0 or x−5=0
x=2 or x=5
Answer:   x=2 or x=5
[tex] x^{2} - 7x +10 = 0 [/tex]

The middle term should be factored in such a way that the sum of two numbers is -7x and their product is 10x2. These two factors are -5x and -2x. So re-writing the equation, we get:

[tex] x^{2} - 5x - 2x +10 = 0[/tex]

Taking common, we get:

[tex]x( x - 5) -2 (x-5)=0 \\ \\ (x-5)(x-2)=0[/tex]

This means:
x - 5 = 0
⇒ x = 5

or

x - 2 = 0
⇒ x = 2

Therefore, the solution to the given equation are x = 2 and x = 5

What is the equation of the line described below written in slope-intercept form? the line passing through point (0, 0) and parallel to the line whose equation is 3x + 2y - 6 = 0

Answers

y=-1.5x or y=-(3/2)x

Answer:

The slope intercept form of the required line is [tex]y=\frac{-3}{2}x[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

If a line is defined as

[tex]Ax+By+C=0[/tex]        ... (1)

Then the slope of the line is

[tex]m=\frac{-A}{B}[/tex]

The given equation is

[tex]3x+2y-6=0[/tex]       .... (2)

From (1) and (2), we get

[tex]A=3, B=2, C=-6[/tex]

The slope of the line is

[tex]m=\frac{-3}{2}[/tex]

The slope of parallel line is same. So, the slope of required line is -3/2.

The slope intercept form of a line is

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

Where, m is slope and b is y-intercept.

The slope of required line is -3/2 and y-intercept is at (0,0).

[tex]y=\frac{-3}{2}x+0[/tex]

[tex]y=\frac{-3}{2}x[/tex]

Therefore the slope intercept form of the required line is [tex]y=\frac{-3}{2}x[/tex].

Please help!! Which of the following could represent the scale factor of the smaller figure to the larger figure?
Smaller figures volume is 216in.^3
Larger figures volume is 343in.^3

Answers

Final answer:

The scale factor from the smaller figure to the larger figure is found by taking the cube root of the ratio of their volumes, which is the cube root of 216/343.

Explanation:

The student asked: Which of the following could represent the scale factor of the smaller figure to the larger figure? When comparing the volumes of two geometric figures, we can determine the scale factor of their linear dimensions by understanding the relationship between volume and linear scale factor.

Given that the smaller figure's volume is 216 cubic inches and the larger figure's volume is 343 cubic inches, we are looking for the cube root of the ratio of these volumes to find the linear scale factor.


To find the scale factor from the smaller figure to the larger figure, divide the volume of the smaller figure by the volume of the larger figure and then calculate the cube root: Scale factor = ∛(216/343). This calculation will give you the scale factor of the linear dimensions from the smaller figure to the larger figure.

according to the tree diagram below what is the probability that someone buys a book that is paperback and fiction

Answers

Let us check out the diagram. The probability that a person buys a paperback is 0.65. The next leafs of the diagram (to the right of choosing paperback) show two events: the event that the buyer who has bought a paperback buys fiction and the probability he buys non-fiction. So 65% of the buyers buy paperback and 0.45 (=45%) of them buy fiction. Hence the probability that they buy both fiction and paperback is 0.65*0.45=0.2925. This is always a helpful thought procedure with such exercises; we can solve the same way for hardcover non-fiction etc.

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

[tex]0.65\ (65\%)[/tex] of the buyers buy paperback and [tex]0.45\ (45\%)[/tex] of them buy fiction.

Hence

The probability that they buy both fiction and paperback is equal to

[tex]0.65*0.45=0.2925[/tex]

That line is in point-slope form:

[tex]\sf y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

Where 'm' is the slope and (x1, y1) is a point on the line.

Perpendicular lines have opposite slopes. To get the opposite, we take the reciprocal and multiply it by -1.

Reciprocal:

[tex]\sf -\dfrac{3}{2}[/tex]

Multiply by -1:

We can plug this slope and the point into point-slope form, and then convert it to slope-intercept form.

[tex]\sf y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

[tex]\sf y-(-2)=\dfrac{3}{2}(x-(-2))[/tex]

Negatives cancel out:

Product of first and third term is [tex] (a^{2})(-28) = -28 a^{2} [/tex]

Second term is 3a, Re-write 3a as sum of 7a and -4a.

Lets check it Product of 7a and -4a is [tex] -28 a^{2} [/tex] wich is eaqual to product of first and third term and sum of 7a and -4a is 3a which is the second term.

Now factorise, we get

Hence, [tex] (a+7)(a-4) [/tex] is the factor of [tex] a^{2}+3a-28 [/tex].

Can anyone answer this for me?

Answers

For 24, the answer is 24.
For 19 to 21:

All you need to do is count the spaces between each line of the numerator and then the same with the denominator.

19. You can see that there are 4 spaces between Point A and Point B. There are 6 spaces between point A and Point C. So if you will get ratio you will get:

[tex] \frac{4}{6} [/tex] Then you simplify the expression.
[tex] \frac{2}{3} [/tex]

20. There are 2 spaces from points B to C. There are 3 spaces from points C to D. So the ration then will be:
[tex] \frac{2}{3} [/tex] 

This is already in its simplest form. You may be wondering why we did not count from 0. This is because the reference point for the two lines are given. For the first it is B and for the second is C.

21. Moving on to number 21. The distance from point B to D is 5 spaces, and the distance from point A to E is 12 spaces. So you can say that the ratio would be:

[tex] \frac{5}{12} [/tex] Again, this is already in its simplest form. 

22. 
To get the geometric mean between two numbers you first need to multiply them and then get the square root:

STEP 1: Multiply 7 and 28
                            7 x 28 = 196
STEP 2: Get the square root of the product
              √196 = 14

14 is the geometric mean.

23. Simplifying ratios is relatively easy. When you simplify the ratio between two values that are of different units, you first need to make both units the same. 
In your case, we need to either convert 10ft to inches or convert 30 inches to feet. So we will not come up with a decimal, let us just convert 10 ft into inches. 

[tex] 10 ft [/tex] x [tex] \frac{12in}{1ft} [/tex] = 120 inches

So our new ratio is:
[tex] \frac{120in}{30in} [/tex]
Now we simplify it to its simplest form:
[tex] \frac{4in}{1in} [/tex]

24. The two figures are what we call similar figures. This means that the lengths of each side are proportional to their corresponding sides. 

AB is proportional to line FG. 
AB = 4 and FG =8
This means that the sides of ABCDE is half the lengths of the sides of FGHJK. Thus we can say that the perimeter of ABCDE is half the perimeter of FGHJK
To get the perimeter of a polygon, all you have to do is add all the sides. 
Let's get the perimeter of FGHJK
8 + 8 + 10 + 12 + 10 = 48
Half of 48 =24 
So the perimeter of ABCDE is 24

If you want to double check your answer you can get the sides of polygon of ABCDE by getting half of each corresponding side. 
AB = 4
BC = 4
CD = 5
DE = 6
EA = 5

If you get the sum of all sides, you can get the perimeter:
4 +4 +5 + 6 + 5 = 24

Answer:

In first blank : y = - 2,

In second blank : ( 0, 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function is,

[tex]f(x)=3^{x+1}-2[/tex]

The horizontal asymptote of the function f(x),

[tex]y=lim_{x\rightarrow \infty} f(x)[/tex]

[tex]y=lim_{x\rightarrow \infty} 3^{x+1}-2[/tex]

[tex]y=3^{\infty+1}-2[/tex]

[tex]y=3^\infty - 2[/tex]

[tex]y=0-2[/tex]

y = -2

First option is correct.

Also, the function has no vertical asymptote,

2. For finding the y-intercept, x = 0,

[tex]f(0)=3^{0+1}-2=3-2=1[/tex]

Hence, the y-intercept = (0,1)

Third option is correct.

Final answer:

The function f(x) = 3x + 1 – 2 is a linear function and does not have an asymptote, contrary to the options provided. The y-intercept is found by setting x to 0, which results in the point (0, – 1).

Explanation:

The function in question is f(x) = 3x + 1 – 2. To determine its asymptote and y-intercept, we analyze its structure.

Since this is a linear function and not a rational function, it does not have an asymptote like those found with rational functions, whose denominators can become zero. Instead, the original function is a modification of the function f(x) = 3x, with vertical shifts up by 1 and down by 2, effectively canceling each other out. Therefore, the asymptote is essentially the x-axis, which can be represented by the equation y = 0. However, since none of the provided options include y = 0, and the function we are analyzing is, in fact, linear without any asymptotes, there must be an error in the question regarding this part.

To find the y-intercept, we set x equal to 0 and solve for f(0):

f(0) = 3(0) + 1 – 2 = 1 – 2 = – 1.

Therefore, the y-intercept of the function is the point (0, – 1).

The given arithmetic series is

[tex] \sum_{t=1}^{18} (3t-4) [/tex]

When t =1, we will get the first term,a, which is

[tex] 3(1)-4 =3-4=-1 [/tex]

When t =18, we will get the last term,l , which is

[tex] 3(18)-4 = 50 [/tex]

Now we use the formula of sum of n terms which is

[tex] S = \frac{t}{2} (a+l) [/tex]

Substituting the values of t,a and l, we will get

[tex] S = \frac{18}{2} (-1+50) = 9*49 =441 [/tex]

Consider the arithmetic series [tex] _{t=1}\Sigma^{t=18} (3t-4) [/tex]

Let t=1 in the given series, we get

first term = [tex] a_{1} [/tex] = 3-4 = -1.

Let t=2 in the given series, we get

second term = [tex] a_{2} [/tex] = [tex] (3 \times 2)-4 = 2 [/tex]

Let t=3 in the given series, we get

third term = [tex] a_{3} = (3 \times 3)-4=5 [/tex]

Now, let t=18 in the given series, we get

last term = l = [tex] l = (3 \times 18)-4 = 50 [/tex]

We get the series as

-1, 2, 5,..... 50

Sum = [tex] \frac{n}{2}(a+l) [/tex]

= [tex] \frac{18}{2}(-1+50) [/tex]

= [tex] = 9 \times 49 [/tex]

= 441

Therefore, the sum of the given arithmetic series is 441.

How far does a ball that is hit from a height of 3 feet at a speed of 120 feet per second travel before it hits the ground if it is hit at an angle of 45 degrees? Round your answer to the nearest integer.

A) 376 Feet
B) 395 Feet
C) 426 Feet
D) 453 Feet

Answers

Selection D is appropriate.

It is convenient to solve for the time of flight, then compute the distance traveled in that time. The ball is in the air about 5.338 seconds.

One number is one less than five times another. if their sum is decreased by three, the result is eight. find the numbers.

Answers


One number is one less than five times another ....
Let one number be x
The other number is 5x - 1

Their sum ... 
x + 5x - 1 = 6x - 1

Their sum is decreased by 3
6x - 1 - 3 = 6x - 4

The result is eight
6x - 4 = 8
6x = 8 + 4
6x = 12
x = 2

x = 2
5x - 1 = 5(2) - 1 = 9
One number is 2 and the other is 9.

Answers

3x - 4y = 28
 4x + 10y = 20
 First we rewrite the system of equations:
 Equation 1:
 3x - 4y = 28
 3x - 28 = 4y
 (3/4) x - 7 = y
 Equation 2:
 4x + 10y = 20
 10y = 20 - 4x
 y = 2 - (2/5) x
 We have then:
 y = (3/4) x - 7
 y = - (2/5) x + 2
 One line has a positive slope and the other line has a negative slope.
 Thus, both lines are connected.

 Answer: 
 D) y = 3/4 x - 7; y = -2/5 x + 2; intersecting lines

The slope - intercept form of the equations are : [tex]y = \frac{3}{4} x - 7 [/tex] and [tex]y = - \frac{2}{5} x + 2[/tex]

Given the standard form of the equations :

3x - 4y = 28 - - - - (1)

4x + 10y = 20 - - - - - (2)

The General form of a slope - intercept equation :

y = bx + c

For equation (1) :

3x - 4y = 28

Make y the subject

-4y = 28 - 3x

Divide both sides by - 4 to isolate y

y = -7 + 3/4x

[tex]y = \frac{3}{4} x - 7 [/tex]

For equation (2) :

4x + 10y = 20

Make y the subject

10y = 20 - 4x

Divide through by 10 to isolate y

y = 2 - 2/5x

[tex]y =- \frac{2}{5} x + 2[/tex]

Hence, the slope - intercept equations are : [tex]y = \frac{3}{4} x - 7 [/tex] and [tex]y = - \frac{2}{5} x + 2[/tex]
