A 6-pound watermelon costs $2.40 before a 30% discount. Which equation would allow you to find the discounted price of the watermelon? PLEASE HELP!!!

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Price after discount = 2.4 (1-.3)

Price after discount = 2.4 (.7)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the cost after the discount.

Price after discount = original price - original price * discount rate

Factoring out the original price

Price after discount = original price (1- discount rate)

We know the discount rate = .3 and the original price is 2.4

Price after discount = 2.4 (1-.3)

Price after discount = 2.4 (.7)

Price after discount = 1.68

Answers

Answer:

976 421; 124 679

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A. Largest number

Leslie's number was 976 421.

This is because the largest numbers are in the positions of largest value.

For example, 9 in the hundred thousands place, the next largest number in the ten thousands place, and so on.

Estimate then record their products 3 × 46

Answers

Answer:

Estimate is 150 and actual product is 138.

Step-by-step explanation:

To estimate products, we round the numbers to nearest unit place, 10th, 100th, 1000th, and so on.

Given are the numbers 3 and 46.

We can round 46 ≈ 50.

So Estimation would be 3 x 46 ≈ 3 x 50

3 times 5 is 15 and we can add zeros after it.

So estimation is 3 x 46 ≈ 150.

Now actual product would be...

3 times 6 is 18, so we note down 8 and 1 goes to carry over 4.

3 times 4 is 12 and carry 1 will be added in it, so 12 + 1 = 13.

It means the actual product is 3 x 48 = 138.

The circumference of a particular circle is 18 cm. In square centimeters, what is the area of the circle? Express your answer as a common fraction in terms of pi.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]A=8.2 cm^2[/tex] or [tex]A=\frac{81}{\pi }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the the formula for the circumference of a circle is [tex]C=2\pi r[/tex] and C is 18, we can substitute and solve for r. After we solve for r, we substitute it into the area formula.

[tex]18=2\pi r\\\frac{18}{2\pi } =\frac{2\pi r}{2\pi }\\2.866=r[/tex]

The formula for the area is [tex]A=\pi r^{2} \\A=\pi 2.866^{2} \\A=8.2 cm^2[/tex]

As a fraction, we would not simplify to a decimal and the solution would be:

[tex]A=\pi r^{2} \\A=\pi (\frac{9}{\pi }) ^{2} \\A=\frac{81}{\pi }[/tex]

What is the equation of a perpendicular line?

If the slope of the line is m, then the slope of the perpendicular line will be negative 1/m.

The equation of the line is given as,

y = 2x + 8

Then the slope of the line is 2, then the slope of the perpendicular line will be - 1/2. Then the equation is given as,

y = - (1/2)x + c

The equation of the line is passing through (6, -2). Then we have

- 2 = - (1/2)6 + c

- 2 = - 3 + c

c = 1

Then the equation of the line is given as,

y = - (1/2)x + 1

The equation of the perpendicular line that passes through (6, -2) will be y = - (1/2)x + 1. Then the correct option is D.

write the equation of the line with x-intercept of -4 and y-intercept of 2. Hint:with those intercepts, (-4,0) and (0,2) are points on the line

Answers

Final answer:

The equation of the line with an x-intercept of -4 and a y-intercept of 2 is y = 0.5x + 2. We found this by calculating the slope using the two given points and then using the slope-intercept form to construct the equation.

Explanation:

To write the equation of the line with an x-intercept of -4 and a y-intercept of 2, we can use the two intercepts as points on the line: (-4,0) and (0,2). We can find the slope using the formula m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1), where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are points on the line. For our points this would be:

m = (2 - 0) / (0 - (-4)) = 2 / 4 = 0.5

Once we have the slope, we can use the slope-intercept form of a line, which is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Since the y-intercept is given as 2, we can write:

y = 0.5x + 2

This is the equation of the line with the given intercepts.

The coach has 3 positions to fill on his basketball team. There are 9 students who are interested in being on the team. How many combinations of the three positions can he choose for the team?

A: 94
B:84
C:27
D:12

Answers

Answer: Option 'c' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of students who are interested in being on the team = 9

Number of positions to fill on his basket ball team = 3

So, the combinations of the three positions he can choose for the team is given by

[tex]3\times 9=27[/tex]

Hence, Option 'c' is correct.

The coach can choose 84 different combinations of the three positions from 9 interested students for the basketball team.

The coach needs to choose 3 out of 9 students to fill the positions on his basketball team. This is a combination problem, and the number of ways to choose [tex]\( r \)[/tex] items from [tex]\( n \)[/tex] items is given by the combination formula:

[tex]\[ C(n, r) = \frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!} \][/tex]

Here, [tex]\( n = 9 \) (number of students) and \( r = 3 \)[/tex] (number of positions to fill).

[tex]\[ C(9, 3) = \frac{9!}{3!(9-3)!} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ C(9, 3) = \frac{9!}{3!6!} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ C(9, 3) = \frac{9 \times 8 \times 7}{3 \times 2 \times 1} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ C(9, 3) = \frac{504}{6} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ C(9, 3) = 84 \][/tex]

So, the coach can choose from 84 different combinations for the team positions.

A rectangular coffee table has an area measure of 10x² + 13x - 3 square units. which of the following could represent the perimeter of the rectangle in terms of x?

Answers

Final answer:

To find the perimeter of a rectangle in terms of x, add up the length and width and multiply by 2.

Explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle can be found by adding up all four sides. In this case, the length and width of the rectangle are represented by the factors of the area measure:

10x² + 13x - 3 = (2x - 1)(5x + 3)

So the length is (2x - 1) and the width is (5x + 3). The perimeter can be calculated using the formula:

Perimeter = 2(length + width)

Substituting the values, the perimeter in terms of x is:

Perimeter = 2((2x - 1) + (5x + 3))

Simplifying further:

Perimeter = 2(7x + 2)

Perimeter = 14x + 4

What is the total number of students in Ms. perron class

Answers

Answer:

24 total students

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply 25 times 18 to get 450 then divide 450 by 75 then you get 6, which is the total amount of girls, so 6 + 18 = 24

x = number of students

75% of x = number of boys

(75/100)*x = 18

0.75x = 18

x = 18/0.75 <--- divide both sides by 0.75 to isolate x

x = 24

So there are 24 students in the class

Note how 18/24 = 3/4 = 0.75 = 75% represents the percentage of boys

You are planning a trip to the United States. The exchange rate is $1 = 78p Approximately how many dollars will you get if you change 160 pounds for dollars?

Answers

Answer: If the rate of change is $1 = 78p, then if you have 160p, how much dollars you will get?

(if p are penys)

100p = 1 pound

if $1 = 78p = 0.78 pound

→ 1  pound = $1/0.78 = $1.28

→ 160*1 pound = $160/0.78 = $205.13

So if you change 160 pounds, you will get 205 dollars and 13 cents.

The number of dollars when 160 pounds is exchanged will be 205.13.

You may multiply the pounds by the exchange rate to get how many dollars you will receive for 160 pounds if the exchange rate is $1 = 78p.

160 pounds multiplied by the 78p to the dollar conversion rate results in:

160 pounds multiplied by 100 pence equals 16,000 pence.

Since there are 100 pence in a pound, we divide the amount in pence by 100 to get dollars:

16,000 p divided by 78p is $205.13

Consequently, if you convert 160 pounds to dollars at the current exchange rate of $1 = 78p, you will get around 124.80 dollars in return.

at a concession stand 9 slices of pizza and 5 soft pretzels cost $33.25. If 4 slices of pizza and 6 soft pretzels cost $19.50. What is the cost of a soft pretzel?

Answers

Answer:

The cost of soft pretzel is $1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x be the price of one slice of pizza and $y be the price of one soft pretzel.

1. 9 slices of pizza cost $9x and 5 soft pretzels cost $5y. Together they cost $33.25, then

9x+5y=33.25.

2. 4 slices of pizza cost $4x and 6 soft pretzels cost $6y. Together they cost $19.50, then

4x+6y=19.50.

3. Solve the system of two equations:

[tex]\left\{\begin{array}{l}9x+5y=33.25\\4x+6y=19.50\end{array}\right..[/tex]

Multiplythe first equation by 4, the second equation by 9 and subtract them:

[tex]4(9x+5y)-9(4x+6y)=4\cdot 33.25-9\cdot 19.50,\\ \\36x+20y-35x-54y=133-175.5,\\ \\-34y=-42.5,\\ \\y=\$1.25.[/tex]

Then

[tex]4x+6\cdot 1.25=19.50,\\ \\4x=19.50-7.50,\\ \\4x=12,\\ \\x=\$3.[/tex]

Answer: Each soft pretzel cost $1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, we have to write an equation for each case:

9 x + 5 y = 33.25

4x +6 y = 19.50

Where x is the price of 1 slice of pizza, and y is the price of each soft pretzel.

Multiplying the first equation by 4, and the second equation by 9

36x +20y =133

36x +54y =175.5

And subtracting the first equation to the second equation

36x +54y =175.5

-

36x +20y =133
