A certain brand of laundry detergent is manufactured for $3.85 and then marked up 40% by the local store before selling. The store offers a 20% discount with the purchase of three or more bottles of the detergent. Showing all work, determine the total cost, before tax, of five bottles of detergent. (10 points)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$21.56

Step-by-step explanation:

Original price = $3.85Marked up by 40% = 3.85 x 1.4 = $5.39 per bottle

Cost and discount of 5 bottles

Cost = 5 x 5.39 = $26.95Discount of 20% = 26.95 x 0.8 = $21.56
Answer 2

Answer:

$21.56

Step-by-step explanation:

Original cost of one bottle of detergent = $3.85

Cost of one bottle after 40% mark up = 1.4 × $3.85 = $5.39

Cost of 5 bottles = 5 × $5.39 = $26.95

Cost of 5 bottles after applying 20% discount = 0.8 × $26.95 = $21.56

Therefore, the total cost of 5 bottles of detergent is $21.56

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

Information about percetange increase/decrease

If you increase the price of something by 40% then it will be 140% of the original price (the original price is 100% and 100% + 40% = 140%).

Convert to decimal form:  140% = 140/100 = 1.4

Therefore, to calculate an increase of 40%, multiply the original price by 1.4

If you decrease the price of something by 20% then it will be 80% of the previous price (the original price is 100% and 100% - 20% = 80%).

Convert to decimal form:  80% = 80/100 = 0.8

Therefore, to calculate a decrease of 20%, multiply the previous price by 0.8

Choose the multiplication problem that correctly shows partial products.
A) A
B) B
C) C

Answers

Answer:

B) B

Step-by-step explanation:

   2 times 4 is 8, so in this case the option is option b as none of the other options show this.

    In total,

2 * 4 = 8

60 * 4 = 240

240 + 8 = 248

B) We are multiplying 4 by 2 we got 8 then we should multiply 4 by 6 it is 24 and then we are putting 24 under 8 , we should put 8 at the end and at the beginning 24 so it is 248

Regis leans a 10-foot ladder against a wall. The base of the ladder makes a 65 angle with the ground.
(a)
What is the distance, In feet, from the base of the ladder to the base of the wall? Round to the nearest tenth of a foot.
(b) Regis needs to move the ladder so that it reaches a window 9.6 feet above the ground.
How many feet closer to the building does he need to move the base of the ladder?

Answers

The distance, In feet, from the base of the ladder to the base of the wall is 4.2 ft.

He needs to move the ladder 0.1 ft closer to the base of the building.

The situation forms a right angle triangle.

Right angle triangle

Right angle triangle has one of its angles as 90 degrees. The sides and angle can be found using trigonometric ratios.

The length of the ladder is the hypotenuse of the triangle formed. Therefore, the distance, In feet, from the base of the ladder to the base of the wall can be calculated as follows;

cos 65° = adjacent / hypotenuse

cos 65° = d / 10

d = 10 × 0.42261826174

d = 4.22618261741

d = 4.2 ft

She needs to move the ladder so it reached a window 9.6 feet above the ground. Therefore, the distance from the base of the ladder and the wall is as follows;

cos 65 = d / 9.6

d = 9.6 × 0.42261826174

d = 4.05696

d = 4.1

Therefore, he needs to move the ladder 0.1 ft closer to the building.

How many factors do numbers of the form p^n and q^m have if p and q are two different prime numbers and m and n are natural numbers?

Answers

The only common factor between these two numbers will be 1.

How many factors do these numbers share?

Remember that any number can be decomposed as a product of prime numbers. For example for 18 we have:

18 = 2*3*3

There 18 is written as a product of its prime factors.

Now, for our case of p^n and q^m we will have:

p^n = P = p*p*p...*p     n times.

q^m = Q = q*q*q*...*q     m times.

Now, notice that because q and p are primes, there is no common factor in these two decompositions. (and we can't decompose it furthermore). Then we conclude that the only factor that these numbers share is the trivial one, which is 1.

cm
Length of the shorter leg: 0
Length of the longer leg: 0
Length of the hypotenuse: 0
cm
cm

Answers

Answer:

Shorter leg = 20 cm.

Longer leg = 21cm.

Hypotenuse = 29 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the shorter leg be x cm long

Then longer leg = x + 1 and hypotenuse = x + 9 cm long

So by Pythagoras:

x^2 + (x + 1)^2 = (x + 9)^2

0 = x^2 + 18x + 81 - x^2 - (x^2 + 2x + 1)

x^2 + 18x + 81 - x^2 - x^2 - 2x - 1 = 0

-x^2 + 16x + 80 = 0

x^2 - 16x - 80 = 0

(x - 20)(x + 4) = 0

So x = 20   (we ignore the negative root).

So longer leg = 20 + 1 and hypotenuse = 20 + 9.

If my dot plot is not skewed or symmetrical which measure of variability should I use? (15 data points) PLEASE HELP THE ASSIGNMENT IS DUE TONIGHT!
these are the data points: 5,6,7,7,7,8,8,9,9,9,9,9,10,10,11
I also need the best measure of center!

Answers

If the data is not skewed, then the mean is the best measure of center.

This then also includes the standard deviation because the standard deviation relies on the mean.

To get the mean, add up the data values:

5+6+7+7+7+8+8+9+9+9+9+9+10+10+11 = 124

Then divide by the sample size n = 15

124/n = 124/15 = 8.267 approximately

Once you determine the mean, you can then determine the standard deviation which involves a bit more complicated steps. The rough outline is:

Subtract each data value from the mean. So right off the bat, we can see how important the mean is when it comes to calculating the standard deviation.Square those differences from step one.Add up the squares to get the Sum of the Squared Errors (SSE)Divide the SSE by n-1 to get the sample variance, or divide by n to get the population variance. It will depend on context which version you go for.Apply the square root to the variance to get the standard deviation.

Once again, step 1 shows how critical the mean is to finding the standard deviation. The standard deviation measures how far each value is from the mean on average. In other words, it's like a measure of the average distance from the mean.

Use of spreadsheet software is strongly recommended to keep track of everything. You can also use a standard calculator to compute the standard deviation. There are also tons of free online calculators that can help out with that as well.

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

If the data was skewed to one side, then the median is the better measure of center because it is not affected by outliers. The IQR (interquartile range) is used instead of the standard deviation for skewed distributions.
