A ring is now reduced to £840.

This is a saving of 40% of the original price.

Work out the original price of the ring.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:  £1400

==============================================

Work Shown:

If you save 40%, then you pay 100% - 40% = 60% of the original price

final price = 60% of original price

final price = 0.60*(original price)

840 = 0.60x

0.60x = 840

x = 840/0.60

x = 1400

The ring was originally £1400 before the discount.

Katie wants to buy a bracelet. She only has $30 to spend. She has found a bracelet with a regular price of $45 and a discount of 35%. If the sales tax is 7%, will she have enough to buy the bracelet? If so, how much money will Katie have left? If not, how much more money will she need?

Answers

Given :

Money Katie has, M = $30.

She has found a bracelet with a regular price of $45 and a discount of 35%.

The sales tax is 7%.

To Find :

Will she have enough to buy the bracelet.

Solution :

Original price = $45 .

Price after discount = $( 45 - 45×0.35) = $29.25 .

Selling Price = $( 29.25 + 29.25×0.07 ) = $31.2975 .

Since, selling price is greater than $30.

Money needed = $( 31.2975 - 30 ) = $1.2975 .

Therefore, Katie will not buy the bracelet.

What is the correct equation to find the value of X?

Answers

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 angles shown are corresponding angles and congruent, thus

8x - 17 = 5x + 19 ( subtract 5x from both sides )

3x - 17 = 19 ( add 17 to both sides )

3x = 36 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 12

Diana is buying plates and cups for a party. She wants the same number of each. Plates are sold in packs of eight and cups are sold in packs of 12. What is the least number of plates and cups she can buy? How many packs of plates? How many packs of cups? Explain how you know.

Answers

Answer:

What is the least number of plates and cups she can buy?

The least number of cups of plates and cups she can buy is 24

How many packs of plates?

3 packs of plates

How many packs of cups?

2 packs of cups

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the least number of plates and cups she can buy?

We solve this using the Lowest Common Multiple method

The L.C.M of 8 and 12

Multiples of 8: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40

Multiples of 12: 12, 24, 36, 48

Therefore,

LCM(8, 12) = 24

Hence, the least number of cups and plates she can buy is 24

How many packs of plates?

Plates are sold in packs of eight

Hence: 24 ÷ 8 = 3 packs of plates

How many packs of cups?

Cups are sold in packs of 12

Hence: 24 ÷ 12 = 2 packs of cups

Find the slope of the line that passes through the points (5,10) and (7,12).

Answers

Answer:

The slope of the line is 1. The equation of the line is 1x + 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The process is simple. It is y2 - y1 over x2 - x1. Plug in the value of the coordinates to get 12 - 10 over 7 - 5. That leaves you with 2 over 2, which is 1. If you need the equation, it is 1x + 5. Plug in the value of the coordinates to check your work.

A ball is thrown strait up from the top of a 64 foot tall building with an initial speed of 48 feet per second. The height of the ball as a function of time can be modeled by the function h(t)=-16t^2+48t+64. At what other time will the ball be at a height of 64 feet? How long will it take for f ball to reach its maximum height? What is he maximum height reached by the ball? How long willlit take for the ball to hit the ground?

Answers

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

h(t)=-16t^2+48t+64

Find when h(t) = 64

64 = -16t^2+48t+64

Subtract 64 from each side

0 =  -16t^2+48t

Factor

0 = -16t( t-3)

Using the zero product property

-16t =0    t-3 =0

t=0 and t=3

Other than at t=0,  so at t=3 seconds

How long will it take for f ball to reach its maximum height?

Find the vertex

t = -b/2a = -48 / ( 2 * -16) = -48/ -32 = 1.5 seconds

It will reach the maximum height at 1.5 seconds

What is the maximum height reached by the ball?

The height will be

h(1.5) = -16*(1.5)^2+48(1.5)+64

       = -36+72+64

       = 100

The maximum height is 100 ft

How long will it take for the ball to hit the ground?

h(t) =0

0=-16t^2+48t+64

Factor

0 = -16( t^2 - 3t -4)

0=- 16( t-4) (t+1)

Using the zero product property

t-4=0     t+1=0

t =4     t = -1

Since time cannot be negative

t=4 seconds

Suppose that grade point averages of undergraduate students at one university have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 2.51 and a standard deviation of 0.44. Using the empirical rule, what percentage of the students have grade point averages that are no more than 2.07? Please do not round your answer.

Answers

Answer:

15.87%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Mean (m) = 2.51

Standard deviation (σ) = 0.44

Percentage of students with grade point average no more than 2.07

Using the relation :

Zscore = (X - mean) / standard deviation

X = 2.07

Zscore = (2.07 - 2.51) / 0.44

Zscore = - 0.44 / 0.44

Zscore =. - 1

P(Z < - 1) : using the z table

P(Z < 1) = 0.1587

Hence, Percentage of students with grade point average no more than 2.07 is (0.1587 * 100%) = 15.87%

there are 48 newborn girls in a hospital nursery. For every 3 girls, there are 2 boys. How many newborn babies are in the nursery?

Answers

Hi! I believe your answer is 80 newborn babies. To find the number of boys, divide 48 by 3 (since it is for every 3 girls) and you'll get 16. Next, multiply 16 and 2 (for every 2 boys) and you'll get 32. Lastly, add 48 and 32 and you'll get the number of newborn babies in the nursery (80). I hope this helps you! Good luck and have a great day. ❤️✨

Number of total newborn babies = 80

What is ratio?

A ratio can be defined as the relationship or comparison between two numbers of the same unit to check how bigger is one number than the other one.

Given,

Total number of girls = 48

For every 3 girls, there are 2 boys.

Ratio of girls to boy = 3/2

Let there are x boys,

then,

48/x = 3/2

3x = 96

x = 32

Number of boys = 32

Total newborn babies = Number of girls + number of boys

                                     = 48 + 32 = 80

Hence, 80 newborn babies are in nursery.

The sum of the 8th & 4th of an Ap is 24 and sum of and sum of 6th & 10th term is 44 Find the Ap​

Answers

Given:

Sum of 8th & 4th terms of an AP = 24

Sum of 6th & 10th terms = 44

Find:

A.P.

Solution:

We know that,

nth term of an AP = a + (n - 1)d

Hence,

⟹ a + (8 - 1)d + a + (4 - 1)d = 24

⟹ a + 7d + a + 3d = 24

⟹ 2a + 10d = 24 -- equation (1)

Similarly,

⟹ a + 5d + a + 9d = 44

⟹ 2a + 14d = 44 -- equation (2)

Subtract equation (1) from (2).

⟹ 2a + 14d - (2a + 10d) = 44 - 24

⟹ 2a + 14d - 2a - 10d = 20

⟹ 4d = 20

⟹ d = 20/4

⟹ d = 5

Substitute the value of d in equation (1).

⟹ 2a + 10(5) = 24

⟹ 2a = 24 - 50

⟹ 2a = 24 - 50

⟹ 2a = - 26

⟹ a = - 26/2

⟹ a = - 13

We know,

General form of an AP is a , a + d , a + 2d...

Hence,

⟹ required AP = - 13 , - 13 + 5 , - 13 + 2(5)...

⟹ required AP = - 13 , - 8 , - 3....

I hope it will help you.
