Auntie Sammy buys a hand bag. There was a discount
of 20%.
If Auntie Sammy paid $245, what was the original price?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I think the original proce would be  $265

Answer 2

1. Subtract the percentage discount from 100

100 - 20= 80

2. Multiply the final price($245) by 100

245 × 100= 24,500

3. Divide the answer in step 2 by the answer in Step 1

24,500 ÷ 80= $306.25

answer is $306.25

How to check to ensure your answer is correct:

1. Multiply the "answer" by the discount price divided by 100. This will give the discount percentage in dollars.

$306.25 × 0.2( which is 20÷100)= $61.25(discount in dollars)

2. Subtract the discount in dollars from the "answer"

$306.25 - $61.25= $245(final price is the same as in the problem so it is correct)

OR

1. Multiply the original price by the number you get from step 1 in your problem divided by 100

$306.25 × 0.8(80 from the very first step divided by 100)= $245(the final price is the same given in the question)

Elimination 5x -6y = -17. -3x -5y = -7

Answers

Answer:

x = -1 and y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

3(5x - 6y = -17)

5(-3x - 5y = -7)

-----------------------      Add the two equations together

-43y = -86

y = 2

5x - 6(2) = -17          Substitute y with 2 in the first equation to get the value of x

x = -1

Answer:

x = -1

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 6y = -17

-3x - 5y = -7

I will eliminate variable x first:

Multiply the first equation by 3

15x - 18y = -51

Multiply the second equation by 5

-15x - 25y = -35

Now subtract the second equation from the first equation:

15x - 18y = -51

-15x - 25y = -35

0x - 43y = -86

-43y = -86

Divide both sides by -43

Negative + Negative = Positive

y = 2

Now eliminate variable y:

Multiply the first equation by 5

25x - 30y = -85

Multiply the second equation by -6 (Negative switches all of the signs)

18x + 30y = 42

43x + 0y = -43

43x = -43

Divide both sides by 43

x = -1

Check work:

5(-1) - 6(2) = -17

-5 - 12 = -17

-17 = -17

Correct

-3(-1) - 5(2) = -7

3 - 10 = -7

-7 = -7

Correct

A class’s test scores are normally distributed if the average score 60 and the standard deviation is 7 choose the spots where the students scoring below 46 and above 74 lie

Answers

Answer:

46

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a  class's test scores are normally distributed with an average score of 60.

We know that the curve of a normal distribution is symmetric about its mean.

60-14=46

60+14=74

Hence, the point 46 lies to the left of the mean and 74 lies to the right of the mean, and the two points have the same function value.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is :

[tex]x^2-x-6=0[/tex]

We need to solve the given equation.

We can solve it using Completing the Square method.

We take two numbers such that their product is -6 and sum is -1.

So,

[tex]x^2-x-6=0\\\\x^2+2x-3x-6=0\\\\x(x+2)-3(x+2)=0\\\\(x-3)(x+2)=0\\\\x=3\ and\ x=-2[/tex]

so, the values of x are 3 and -2.

Answers

Answer:

Quadrant I

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that sin is positive (greater than 0) and tan is positive (greater than 0).

We know that sin is positive in quadrants I and II.

We also know that tan is positive in quadrants I and III.

Since both conditions share Quadrant I, the answer is Quadrant I.

How do you use a number line to find 3/4 times 2/5

Answers

Answer:

First, you need to find the number 2/5 on the number line.

Now, you want to find (3/4) times (2/5)

Then the distance between 0 and the point you found earlier needs to be divided into four equal parts (because the denominator is 4)

sAnd because we have the factor (3/4), with a numerator equal to 3, we move from the origin 3 of these parts to the right, the point at where you arrived is the point (3/4)*(2/5)

Another way, which should give you the exact same point, is:

First locate the point (3/4) on the number line.

Now, you want to find (3/4) times (2/5)

The distance between zero and the denominator needs to be divided into 5 parts (because the denominator is 5)

Because the numerator is 2, you need to move, from the origin, two of these parts to the right.

The point where you end is the product (3/4)*(2/5)

The heights of male are normally distributed with mean of 170 cm and standard deviation

of 7.5cm. Find the probability that a randomly selected male has a height > 180 cm.

Answers

Answer:

0.0918 = 9.18% probability that a randomly selected male has a height > 180 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 170cm and standard deviation of 7.5 cm.

This means that [tex]\mu = 170, \sigma = 7.5[/tex]

Find the probability that a randomly selected male has a height > 180 cm.

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 180. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{180 - 170}{7.5}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.33[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.33[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9082

1 - 0.9082 = 0.0918

0.0918 = 9.18% probability that a randomly selected male has a height > 180 cm.

A dietitian is interested in the average amount of time teenagers exercise per week. Based on previous studies, teenagers exercise an average of 6.5 hours per week. The dietitian suspects this average has increased. During the process of hypothesis testing, the dietitian calculates a test statistic of 3.30. If this test statistic is higher than the critical value, what can the dietitian do next

Answers

Answer:

The dietitian should conclude that there is no significant evidence to support the claim that the number of hours teenagers exercise per week has increased.

Step-by-step explanation:

H0 : μ = 6.5

H1 : μ > 6.5

The test statistic value = 3.30

The critical value > test statistic

The Decison region :

If; test statistic > critical value (Fail to reject H0)

If; test statistic < Critical value (Reject H0)

Given that the test statistic is > critical value ; then we fail to reject the null

Hence, the dietitian should conclude that there is no significant evidence to support the claim that the number of hours teenagers exercise per week has increased.

The area of a square is

where s is the side length.

It is given that the smaller square side length is s so that means the area of that smaller square is the formula above.

The longer square is twice the side length of the side length of the smaller square.

Since all squares have equal sides, that means all the side are twice than the smaller square sides.

We can represent that larger square area by

(4s) squared

To find how many smaller squares it would take to fill the larger square divide the formula by each other.

(4s)÷s squared =4
