John's Mathematics exam mark this year is increased by 5% to 84. Find his Mathematics exam mark
last year. ​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

80%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the past exam mark m,

m*105%=84

m*105/100=84

m=84/(105/100)

m=80

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer:

80

Step-by-step explanation:

new value = 84

old value = n

can use percent change formula:  (new value - old value) / old value = 5/100

[tex]\frac{84-n}{n}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5}{100}[/tex]

cross-multiply (you can simplify 5/100 to be 1/20 first):  20(84 - n) = n

1680 - 20n = n

1680 = 21n

n = 80

pls answer,I will also mark the brainest and I will rate 5 out of 5 stars pls show working out ​

Answers

Answer:

the value in the five years is  £2,621.44

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the value in the five years is given below:

= The value of the second car × (1 - losses percentage)^number of years

= £8,000 × (1 - 0.20)^5

= £8,000 × 0.80^5

= £8,000 ×  0.32768

=  £2,621.44

Hence, the value in the five years is  £2,621.44

We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come

A school club wants to collect at least 500 canned goods for a school food drive. The club has already collected 30 canned goods
Part A
If 10 club members each collect the same number of canned goods, which inequality represents the minimum number of canned goods, n, each club
member must select for the club to meet the goals?

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is 10n ≥ 470.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the school club wants to collect at least 500 canned goods, then we know that they don't want to collect any less: they must collet 500 or more canned goods.

They already collected 30 canned goods, therefore we can subtract this quantity from out goal.

500 - 30 = 470

Since there are 10 club members, the number of members multiplied by "n" the minimum amount of canned goods that they can collect, will equal the total amount of canned goods that they need.

The area of a rectangular warehouse measures 4,288 square feet. The width of the warehouse is 64 feet long. Draw a model to represent the problem, and then solve for the length of the warehouse.

Answers

Answer:

67 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given

The area of a rectangular warehouse measures 4,288 square feet

The width of the warehouse is 64 feet long.

Required:

the length of the warehouse

Step two:

The expression for the area of a rectangle is

A= L*W

so, for the situation

4,288= L*64

solve for L

divide both sides by 64

L= 4,288/64

L=67 feet

A company sells widgets. The amount of profit, y, made by the company, is related to the selling price of each widget, x, by the given equation. Using this equation, find out what price the widgets should be sold for, to the nearest cent, for the company to make the maximum profit.

y=-15x^2+801x-5900​

Answers

Answer:

The widgets should be sold for $26.7 for the company to make the maximum profit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quadratic equation

[tex]f\left(x\right)=-15x^2+801x-59000[/tex]

As the leading coefficient is (-3), so the graph would be a downward Parabola.

Thus, the maximum profit would be at the vertex.

The selling price 'x' can be determined by determining the x-coordinate of the vertex.

In order to calculate the x-coordinate of the vertex, we can find this by

x = -b/2a

where a = -15 and b = 801

x = -801 / 2(-15)

x = -801/-30

x = 801/30

x = 267/10

x = 26.7

Therefore, the widgets should be sold for $26.7 for the company to make the maximum profit.

Which is the equation of a hyperbola with directrices at y = ±2 and foci at (0, 6) and (0, −6)?

Answers

Given:

Hyperbola with directrices at y = ±2 and foci at (0, 6) and (0, −6).

To find:

The equation of hyperbola.

Solution:

We have, directrices at y = ±2 so this hyparabola is along the y-axis.

The standard form of hyperbola is

[tex]\dfrac{(y-k)^2}{a^2}-\dfrac{(x-h)^2}{b^2}=1[/tex]      ...(i)

where, (h,k) is center, foci are [tex](h,k\pm c)[/tex] and directrix are [tex]y=k\pm \dfrac{a^2}{c}[/tex].

On comparing foci, we get

[tex](h,k\pm c)=(0,\pm 6)[/tex]

[tex]h=0,k=0,c=6[/tex]

On comparing directrix we get

[tex]k\pm \dfrac{a^2}{c}=\pm 2[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{a^2}{c}=2[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{a^2}{6}=2[/tex]

[tex]a^2=12[/tex]

Now,

[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]

[tex]12+b^2=(6)^2[/tex]

[tex]b^2=36-12[/tex]

[tex]b^2=24[/tex]

Putting [tex]h=0,k=0,a^2=12,b^2=24[/tex], we get

[tex]\dfrac{(y-0)^2}{12}-\dfrac{(x-0)^2}{24}=1[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{y^2}{12}-\dfrac{x^2}{24}=1[/tex]

Therefore, the equation of hyperbola is [tex]\dfrac{y^2}{12}-\dfrac{x^2}{24}=1[/tex].

Answers

Answer:

k+6 = 0 | k–6 = 0

k = –6, k = 6.

A sum of money amounts to ₹9800 after 5 years and ₹12005 after 8 years at the same rate of simple interest. What will be the rate of interest?

[Irrelevant answers will be reported]​

Answers

Answer:

12%

Step-by-step explanation:

We can get SI of 3 years = 12005 - 9800 = 2205

SI for 5 years = (2205/3)*5 = 3675 [so that we can get principal amount after deducting SI]

Principal = 12005 - 3675 = 6125

So Rate = (100*3675)/(6125*5) = 12%

At the end of a football season a coach is adding up everyone's scores nathan has scored 11 more than harry harry has scored 10 more then jack. If the total of their scores is 91, how much did harry score

Answers

Answer:

Harry has a score of 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us represent their scores as:

Nathan = x

Harry = y

Jack = z

At the end of a football season a coach is adding up everyone's scores

Nathan has scored 11 more than harry

x = y + 11

Harry has scored 10 more then jack.

y = z + 10

z = y - 10

If the total of their scores is 91

x + y+ z = 91

y + 11 + y + y - 10 = 91

3y + 1 = 91

3y = 91 - 1

3y = 90

y = 90/3

y = 30

Since Harry's score is represented as y, Harry has a score of 30
