Answer 1

9514 1404 393

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%.

Answer:

5/14

Step-by-step explanation:

To work this out, we simply need to divide 1 3/4 miles by 4 9/10 miles.

1 3/4 ÷ 4 9/10

Start by converting both terms to improper fractions:

(4/4 + 3/4) ÷ (40/10 + 9/10)

= 7/4 ÷ 49/10

To divide, we simply multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction:

7/4 * 10/49

= 70 / 196

Now we can take out common factors of the 70 / 196

70 / 196

= (5 * 2 * 7) / (14 * 2 * 7)

= 5 / 14

So the straight section of the track is five fourteenths of the entire length.

The system is consistent; it has one solutionD

Step-by-step explanation:

A consistent system of equations has at least one solution

The consistent independent system has exactly 1 solutionThe consistent dependent system has infinitely many solutions

An inconsistent system has no solution

In the system of equations ax + by = c and dx + ey = f, if

a = d, b = e, and c = f, then the system is consistent dependent and has infinitely many solutionsa = d, b = e, and c ≠ f, then the system is inconsistent and has no solutiona ≠ d, and/or b ≠ e, and/or c ≠ f, then the system is consistent independent and has exactly one solution

In the given system of equations

∵ -2y + 2x = 3 ⇒ (1)

∵ -5y + 5x = 12 ⇒ (2)

→ By comparing equations (1) and (2)

-2 ≠ -5

2 ≠ 5

3 ≠ 12

→ By using the 3rd rule above

∴ The system is consistent independent and has exactly one solution

The system is consistent; it has one solution

What are the domain and range of each relation?
Drag the answer into the box to match each relation.

Answers

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the domain of a function is the set of input or argument values for which the function is real and defined.

Thus, the domain of the first relation is: {-2, -1, 0, 2}

We also know that the range of a function is the set of values of the dependent variable for which a function is defined.

Thus, the range of the first relation is: {-4, -2, 2}

Given the second relation

x        y

-4      -2

-2       1

1         4  

4         4

We know that the domain of a function is the set of input or argument values for which the function is real and defined.

Thus,

The domain of the second relation is: {-4, -2, 1, 4}

We also know that the range of a function is the set of values of the dependent variable for which a function is defined.

Thus,

The range of the second relation is: {-2, 1, 4, 4}

The equation of your best fit line is
y= 0.404x - 0.003
Use that equation to calculate how high the line will be when
x = 100

Answers

Answer:

The answer will be 40.397.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the equation of your best fit line is y= 0.404x - 0.003 and they want you to calculate how high the line will be when x=100, plug in 100 in x which will be y= 0.404(100) - 0.003 and you'll get an answer of 40.397.

Answer:

40.397

Step-by-step explanation:

0.404(100)-0.003=40.397

Just plug in the X value for X in the equation and solve. it gives you your answer.

Find the slope of each piece of the antler on the graph below. Write answers in the simplest form into the table.

Answers

Answer:

1.) slope = 2

2.) slope = [tex]-2\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

3.) slope = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

4.) slope = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

5.) slope = [tex]1\frac{8}{9}[/tex]

6.) slope = -2

7.) slope = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the slope we have to divide they "y" value (the number of units by which the piece of antler goes up) by the "x" value the number of units by which the piece of antler goes to the side). Notice the if the antler moves to the left as it foes up then the "x" value is negative.

Now as I said before we know this......

Let "m" be the slope, then....

[tex]m = \frac{y}{x}[/tex]

So now we just have to plug in the y and x values for each antler and we will get the slopes for each one of them.

1.)

[tex]m = \frac{y}{x}[/tex]

[tex]m= \frac{4}{2}[/tex]

[tex]m = 2[/tex]

2.)

[tex]m = \frac{y}{x}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{4}{-1.5}[/tex]

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

3.)

[tex]m = \frac{y}{x}[/tex]

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

4.)

[tex]m = \frac{y}{x}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{1}{4}[/tex]

5.)

[tex]m = \frac{y}{x}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{8.5}{4.5}[/tex]

[tex]m = 1\frac{8}{9}[/tex]

6.)

[tex]m = \frac{y}{x}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{2}{-1}[/tex]

[tex]m= -2[/tex]

7.)

[tex]m = \frac{y}{x}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{3}{-1}[/tex]

[tex]m = -3[/tex]

Find f(-10)
NEED IT FAST

Answers

Answer:

[tex]f(-10)=186[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use substitution to find the value of [tex]f(-10)[/tex].

[tex]f(x) = 2x^2+x-4[/tex]

[tex]f(-10) = 2(-10)^2-10-4[/tex]

[tex]=200-10-4[/tex]

[tex]=186[/tex]

∴ [tex]f(-10) =186[/tex]

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

The value of f(-10) is equal to 186.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the function:

[tex]f(x) = 2x^2 + x - 4[/tex]

We are told to find the value of:

[tex]f(-10)[/tex]

If we pay close attention, we can see a transition between:

[tex]f(x) \rightarrow f(-10)[/tex]

We have turned x into -10, making x = -10.

Therefore, we can change the value of x in the entire function to -10.

[tex]f(-10)=2(-10)^2+(-10) - 4\\\\f(-10) = 200 - 10 - 4\\\\f(-10) = 186[/tex]

Therefore, f(-10) = 186.

Calculate the frequency of light that has a wavelength of
4.25 x 10^-9m and a velocity of 300 m/s.

Answers

Answer:

The velocity of light, v, is the product of its wavelength, λ , and its frequency, f. This means that the wavelength is the velocity, v, divided by the frequency, f.

Wavelength of light = velocity of light / frequency of light

λ = v/f

λ = Wavelength of light, meters

v = Velocity of light (c = 3.0 x 108 m, for speed of light if not otherwise defined)

f = frequency of light, Hz

A bookstore costs $96 a day to keep open, and it spends $12 for each book that it sells. If each book sells for $18, what is the break-even point
for this bookstore?

Answers

Answer: The break even point is when they have sold 16 books and have made $288

Step-by-step explanation:  The costs are modeled in the equation y = 12x + 96.  x is the number of books sold.

The earnings are modeled by he equation y = 18x.

Substitute 18x for y and solve for x.

18x = 12x + 96  Subtract 12x from both sides.

6x = 96 Divide both sides by 6

x = 16

Substitute into the original equations to solve  for y

y = 12(16) + 96

y = 192 + 96

Y = 288

y = 18(16)

y = 288

which relation is NOT a function?​

Answers

Answer:

The relation represented by diagram 4 is NOT a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

To tell if a relation is not a function, pay attention to the x-intercepts. If there is more than one y-intercept with the same x-intercept, then it is not a function, because a function can only have one output (y-value) for each input (x-value).

According to the fourth diagram, the domains include 1, 2, and 3 while the range includes A, B, and C. Also, the ordered pairs would go as follows according to the arrows:

(1, A), (2, A), (2, B), (3, C)

While the y-values, A and B, are different, they share the same input, 2. Therefore, the relation represented by the 4th diagram is NOT a function.
