April. The actual rainfall
was 5.8 inches. What
was the percent error of
the estimate to the
nearest tenth of a
percent?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

39.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

(actual value - estimated value) / actual value

5.8 - 3.5 = 2.3

2.3 / 5.8 = 0.3965 = 39.65%

A store is having a sale on walnuts and chocolate chips. For 4 pounds of walnuts and 8 pounds of chocolate chips, the total cost is $25. For 2 pounds of walnuts and 3 pounds of chocolate chips, the total cost is $10. Find the cost for each pound of walnuts and each pound of chocolate chips.

Answers

Answer:

The cost of each pound of walnuts is $1.25 and each pound of chocolate chips is $2.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

x be the price per pound of walnuts

y be the price per pound of chocolate chips

According to given statement,

4x+8y=25     Eqn 1

2x+3y=10      Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 2 by 2

2(2x+3y=10)

4x+6y=20    Eqn 3

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 1

(4x+8y)-(4x+6y)=25-20

4x+8y-4x-6y=5

2y=5

Dividing both sides by 2

[tex]\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{5}{2}\\y=2.50[/tex]

Putting y=2.50 in Eqn 2

2x+3(2.50)=10

2x+7.50=10

2x=10-7.50

2x=2.50

Dividing both sides by 2

[tex]\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{2.50}{2}\\x=1.25[/tex]

Hence,

The cost of each pound of walnuts is $1.25 and each pound of chocolate chips is $2.50

PLEASE HELP!!
Write a paragraph to proof to show that if <1 and <2 are congruent supplementary angles, then <1 and <2 are right angles

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles are two or more angles whose the addition of their measures add up to [tex]180^{o}[/tex].

Given: <1 and <2.

<1 + <2 =  [tex]180^{o}[/tex] (supplementary angles)

If <1 ≅ <2 (congruent property), then we have;

<1 + <1 =  [tex]180^{o}[/tex]

2<1 =  [tex]180^{o}[/tex]

<1 = [tex]\frac{180}{2}[/tex]

   = [tex]90^{o}[/tex]

<1 = [tex]90^{o}[/tex]

So that since <1 and <2 are congruent, then;

<1 ≅ <2 ≅ [tex]90^{o}[/tex]

Therefore if <1 and <2 are supplementary and congruent, then they are right angles.

1) What is the nth term of the sequence?

2) Use the nth term to work out the 21st term of the sequence.

Answers

First difference,

[tex]\Delta_{1} = a_{2} - a_{1} = 3 - 1 = 2 = 1 + 1[/tex]

Second difference,

[tex]\Delta_{2} = a_{3} - a_{2} = 6 - 3 = 3 = 2 + 1[/tex]

Third difference,

[tex]\Delta_{3} = a_{4} - a_{3} = 10 - 6 = 4 = 3 + 1[/tex]

And so on.

Assuming the pattern holds on, we see that

i-th difference,

[tex]\Delta_{i} = a_{i + 1} - a_{i} = i + 1[/tex]

[tex]\implies a_{i + 1} = a_{i} + i + 1[/tex]

Then, nth term is,

[tex]\implies a_{n} = a_{n - 1} + n[/tex]

[tex]= a_{n - 2}+ (n + (n - 1))[/tex]

[tex]= a_{n - 3} + (n + (n - 1) +(n - 2))[/tex]

[tex]= a_{n - (n - 1)} + \sum \limits^{n - 2}_{k = 0}(n - k)[/tex]

[tex]= a_1 + \sum \limits^{n - 2}_{k = 0}n- \sum \limits^{n - 2}_{k = 0}k[/tex]

[tex]= a_1 +n(n -2 + 1 )- \frac{1}{2} (n - 2)(n - 1)[/tex]

[tex]= a_1 +n(n -1 )- \frac{1}{2} (n - 2)(n - 1)[/tex]

[tex]= a_1 +(n -1 )(n- \frac{1}{2} (n - 2))[/tex]

[tex]= a_1 + \frac{1}{2} (n -1 )(2n- n + 2)[/tex]

[tex]= a_1 + \frac{1}{2} (n -1 )(n + 2)[/tex]

[tex]\implies a_{n} = 1 + \frac{1}{2} (n -1 )(n + 2)[/tex]

Now, the 21st term in the sequence is,

[tex]\implies a_{21} = 1 + \frac{1}{2} (21 -1 )(21 + 2)[/tex]

[tex]= 1 + \frac{1}{2} \times 20 \times 23[/tex]

Answer:

  A.  40.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

The selling price for a $5 profit will be ...

  $12.75 +5.00 = $17.75

From $29.95, this represents a change of ...

  (17.75 -29.95)/29.95 × 100%

  = -12.20/29.95 × 100% ≈ -40.7346%

The bookstore can offer a maximum discount of about 40.7%.

Sal's Sandwich Shop sells wraps and sandwiches as part of its lunch specials. The profit on every sandwich is $2 and the profit on every wrap is $3. Sal made a profit of $1,470 from lunch specials last month. The equation 2x + 3y = 1,470 represents Sal's profits last month, where x is the number of sandwich lunch specials sold and y is the number of wrap lunch specials sold.

1. Change the equation to slope intercept form. Identify the slope and y- intercept of the equation. Be sure to show all your work.

2x + 3y= 1470
2x + 3y -2 = 1470 subtract 2x from both sides
3y= 1470 -2x simplify
3y/3= 1470/3 -2x/3 divide both sides by 3
y= -2/3x +490 simplify
-⅔ is the slope and 490 is the y- intercept

2. Describe how you would graph this line using the slope- intercept method. Be sure to write in full sentences.

Start at 490 on the y axis. After that you would use rise over run, down 2 units and right three. Do this until you reach the end of the graph, then go oppisite; up 2 left 3

3. Write the equation in function notation. Explain what the graph of the function represents. Be sure to use complete sentences.

Answer:

a) 67

b) x= -8 and 4

c) 31

Step-by-step explanation:

a) if m<1 = (6x - 5) and m<5 = (5x+7), find m<3.

6x - 5 = 5x + 7

-5x + 5 - 5x + 5

x = 12

6(12) - 5 = 5(12) + 7

72 - 5 = 60 + 7

67 = 67

b) if m<4 = 32 and m<8 = (x^2 - 4x), find x.

32 = x^2 - 4x

- 32 - 32

x^2 - 4x - 32

(x - 8)(x + 4)

x - 8 = 0 x + 4 = 0

+ 8 + 8 - 4 - 4

x = -8 and 4

c) if m<4 = (4x - 17) and m<5 = (5x - 29), find m<1.

4x - 17 = 5x - 29

-5x + 17 -5x + 17

-x = -12

/-1 /-1

x = 12

4(12) - 17 = 5(12) - 29
