A shoe store is offering a series of markdowns for its customers due to its need for quick cash. The shoe store is offering the markdowns in the following order: 35%, 20%, and 10%. What would be the sale price of a pair of boots, if it originally costs $165.00?

Step-by-step explanation:

so, let's do the multiplications and squaring. and then compare the result with the target.

(x + a)² + b = x² + 2ax + a² + b

and the original expression is

x² - 4x + 19

x² = x² done

2ax = -4x

2a = -4

a = -2

a² + b = 19

(-2)² + b = 19

4 + b = 19

b = 15

so, the result is

(x - 2)² + 15

Answer: (x-2)^2+15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given x^2-4x+19

=here b=-4 and c=19

B=b/2=-4/2=-2

C=c-B^2=19-(-2)^2=19-4-15

so

(x-B)^2+C

(x-2)^2+15

The correlation coefficient that is most likely to match a line of best fit of the form y = mx + b for this situation is of:

0.9.

The correlation coefficient is an index that measures correlation between two variables, assuming numeric values between -1 and 1.

If the correlation coefficient is positive, the relation is positive, that is, they are direct proportional. If the correlation coefficient is negative, they are inverse proportional.

If the absolute value of the correlation coefficient is greater than 0.6, the relationship between the two variables is classified as strong.

In the context of this problem, the variables are listed as follows:

The total price increases with the number of bananas bought, and there is a strong positive relationship between these two variables, hence the coefficient should be greater than 0.6 and the correct option is:

0.9.

Estelle has deposited $6350 in her bank account when the simple interest was 2.5% per year.

According to the question,

We have the following information:

In 8 years, Estelle's bank account earned $1,270 simple interest at 2.5%.

Now, let's take the principal amount to be $x.

We know that the following formula is used to find simple interest:

Simple interest = (principal*rate*time)/100

(x*2.5*8)/100 = 1270

Using the cross multiplication method:

20x = 127000

x = 127000/20

x = $6350

Hence, Estelle has deposited $6350 in her bank account when the simple interest was 2.5% per year.

The null and alternative hypothesis regarding the test on whether the mean error is of zero is given by the following option:

D. H0: μ = 0 minutes, H1: μ ≠ 0 minutes.

The first step in identifying the hypothesis is to identify the claim tested, given as follows:

The mean prediction error is equals to zero.

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if there is not enough evidence to go against the claim, hence we suppose that the mean is of zero minutes, as follows:

H0: μ = 0 minutes.

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if there is enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, that is, if there is enough evidence to conclude that the mean prediction error is different of zero minutes, hence it is given as follows:

H1: μ ≠ 0 minutes.

Thus option D gives the correct null and alternative hypothesis in the context of this problem.

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume our task is to find that point of time, when it reaches the highest point.

and the function is

h(t) = -16t² + 96t + 112

well, a maximum or minimum of a curve (function) is found as a zero solution of the first derivative of the function.

given the nature of the function, the extreme point has to be a maximum (the firecracker goes up and then down again).

h'(t) = -32t + 96

we are looking for the zero :

0 = -32t + 96

32t = 96

t = 3 seconds

so, after 3 seconds, the firecracker reaches its highest point, which is at

-16×3² + 96×3 + 112 = -16×9 + 96×3 + 112 =

= -144 + 288 + 112 = 256 ft

FYI - we know for x = 0 (the starting point) the height of the starting window was 112 ft.

The value of d in the expression, 4d/5+3 = -2-d/5, is -5.

According to the question,

We have the following expression:

4d/5+3 = -2-d/5

Now, moving the terms with the same variables on the left hand side will result in the change of the sign from minus to plus:

4d/5+d/5 -3 = -2

5d/5+3 = -2

d+3 = -2

Now, moving 3 from the left hand side to the right hand side will result in the change of the sign from plus to minus:

d = -2-3

We know that two negative integers are added but the sign before the result remains negative.

d = -5

Hence, the value of d is -5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Andy and Emily each go to a hardware store to buy wire. The table shows the cost y in dollars for x inches of the wire they need. Andy needs 24 feet of the wire. Emily needs 15 yards of the wire. How much will each of them spend for wire?​

Looking at your chart:

cost/length in inches

6/100 = $0.06 per inch

8.1/135 = $0.06 per inch

9.6/160 = $0.06 per inch

10.8/180 = $0.06 per inch

So the rate stays at a constant rate of $0.06 per inch.

Andy needs 24 feet or 288 inches at a constant rate of $0.06 per inch.

= 288 * $0.06  

= $17.28

Emily needs 15 yards or 540 inches at a constant rate of $0.06 per inch.

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if the mean is not less than 14 hours, hence:

[tex]H_0: \mu \geq 14[/tex]

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if there is enough evidence that the mean is less than 14 hours, hence:

[tex]H_1: \mu < 14[/tex]

The test statistic is given by the equation presented as follows:

[tex]t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which the parameters are defined as follows:

In the context of this problem, the values of these parameters are:

[tex]\overline{x} = 13.5, \mu = 14, s = 3, n = 64[/tex]

Hence the test statistic is:

[tex]t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{13.5 - 14}{\frac{3}{\sqrt{64}}}[/tex]

Hence the first sequence of reflection was such that:

∆ABC reflects onto ∆A′B′C′ across the line x = -3; followed by

Given the interval is [-2, 0]:

Substitute the endpoints of the interval into the function and solve:

The plane flies at a speed of 150mph

A plane can fly 300 miles in the same time as it takes a car to go 120 miles

Let the time taken be t

Let the speed of the plane be x

the car travels 90 mph slower than the plane,

Speed of the car is x - 90

Speed = distance / time

Time taken by plane = time taken by car

300/ x = 120/x - 90

300(x - 90) = 120x

300x - 27000 = 120x

300x - 120x = 27000

180x = 27000

x = 27000/180
