At a sale this week, a desk is being sold for $285.60. This is 34% of the original price.
What is the original price?

Answers

Answer 1

well, let's say the original price is "x", which namely 100% of the price of the product, we also know that 285.60 is 34% of that.

[tex]\begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} x&100\\ 285.60&34 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{x}{285.60}=\cfrac{100}{34}\implies \cfrac{x}{285.60}=\cfrac{50}{17} \\\\\\ 17x=14280\implies x = \cfrac{14280}{17}\implies x = 840[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

-6x+6y=6.

I think that is the answer

Answer:

(3, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the system by elimination.

Divide the second equation by 3 and add to fist equation:

3x - 6y - 9x/3 + 12y/3 = -15 + 21/33x - 3x - 6y + 4y = -15 + 7-2y = - 8y = -8/-2y = 4

Find the value of x:

Zack bought 2 1/2 pounds of green grapes and 1/5 of a pound of red grapes. How much
more did the green grapes weigh than the red grapes?

Answers

Answer:23/10 pounds heavier

Step-by-step explanation:

first we transform the mixed fraction to a normal fraction

2 1/2 = 5/2

Now transform

5/2 = 25/10

1/5 = 2/10

25/10 - 2/10 = 23/10

So the green grapes weigh 23/10 pounds more than the red grapes.

Hello, can anyone help with this question?

Answers

Answer:

  C.  x-intercepts (1, 0) and (3, 0); y-intercept -3; vertex (2, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given y = -x² +4x -3.

For quadratic y = ax² +bx +c,  the sum of the x-intercepts is -b/a, and their product is c/a. Here, that means the sum of the x-intercepts must be -4/(-1) = 4. That eliminates choice A.

The y-intercept is the constant (c), so is -3. That eliminates choice D.

The x-coordinate of the vertex is -b/(2a), which is half the sum of the x-intercepts. Here, that is 4/2 = 2. That eliminates choice B.

The only remaining answer choice is the correct one: choice C.

Answer:

He runs 1 1/2 miles per practice.

Explanation:

First, you need to find the slope. This can be done by finding two points on the graph. Then you count the distance between the two y-values, and then the distance between the two x-values. Then you create a fraction with the numerator being the distance of y-values and the denominator the distance of x-values. For example, I chose the points (4,8) and (2,5) The distance between those two is 3/2. This simplifies to 1 1/2. Therefore, the slope of the graph is 1 1/2.

A survey found that 27% of high school students and 94% of teachers and school employees drive to school. The ratio of students to employees is about 10 to 1. Roger states

Answers

The complete question statement is: A survey found that 27% of high school students and 94% of teachers and school employees drive to school. The ratio of students to employees is about 10 to 1. Roger states that the number of students who drive to school is greater than the number of teachers and employees who drive to school. Explain how Roger’s statement could be correct.

Answer and Explanation:

What is given;

Students 27%. (s)

Teachers and employees 94%. (t)

The ratio between these two variable is 10:1, this means that for every 10 students there's one employee only, that is, students are 10 times more than teacher and employees.

So, 27% of 10 students is 2.7 students, and 94% of 1 employee is 0.94 employees and teachers. So, if there are 2,000 students, there must be 200 teachers, and the number of students that have cars are 0.27(2000)=540, and the number of teacher and employees that have cars are 0.94(200)=188.

As you can observe, with this ratio and percentages, the number of students who drive to school is greater than the number of teachers and employees who drive to school. That's why Roger's statement is correct.

Find the amount of sales tax for a board game that costs $25.00 at a 7% tax rate

A.$1.75

B.$2.00

C.$2.50

D.$5.00

Answers

To find the tax we have to multiply the percent by the cost.

Remember that in order to do this we need to convert the 7% into a decimal, which means we need to divide it by 100.

7 / 100 = .07

Now lets multiply:

25 * .07 = 1.75

This means that our sales tax is A) $1.75.

The angle of elevation of the top of a cliff from the point Q on the ground is 30°. On moving a distance of 20
m towards the foot of the cliff the angle of elevation increases to xº. If the height of the cliff is 17.3 m, then
find xo

Answers

On moving a distance of 20m towards the foot of the cliff the angle of

elevation increases to 60° .

The situation forms 2 right angle triangle.

The height of the cliff is the opposite side of the 2 triangles formed.

Using trigonometric ratio, the bigger triangle  can be represented as

follows:

tan 30 = opposite / adjacent

Let the distance from point Q to the foot of the cliff be d.

Therefore,

tan 30° = 17.3 / d

d = 17.3 / tan 30

d = 17.3 / 0.57735026919

d = 29.9644789709

d ≈ 30 m

Let's find the new angle when he moves 20 m towards the foot of the cliff.

The smaller triangle formed is used to find the new angle.

Therefore,

The new distance  from the foot of the cliff (adjacent side) = 30 - 20  = 10 m

tan x° = 17.3 / 10

tan x° = 1.73

x = tan ⁻¹ 1.73

x = 59.9705982385

x  ≈ 60°

Answer:

mean = 93

mode(s) = 90 and 94

median = 93

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean --> average value

[tex]\sf{mean = \frac{90 + 92 + 94 + 91 + 90 + 94 + 95 + 98}{8} }[/tex]

Compensation
10. You have a choice of receiving a wage of $34,000 per year, $2840 per month, $650 per week, or $18
per hour. Which pay choice would you take? Assume a 40-hour work week with 52 weeks per year.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Monthly rate:

So if we convert $2840 per month into year that would be: 2840 * 12 (that's how many months in a year) = 34,080

Weekly rate:

There are approximately 4.345  weeks per month since it sometimes changes. So, to find the wage per month: 650 * 4.345  = 2824.25. To find the yearly rate multiply it by 12. So, 2824.25 * 12 = 33,891
