____% of $80 = $4

Answers

Wait i think we’re doing the same thing-

5% of $80 is $4.

What is percentage?

A percentage is a portion of a whole expressed as a number between 0 and 100 rather than as a fraction.

Given that, ____% of $80 = $4

Let x be the percent,

x% of 80 = 4

x = 4*100/80 = 5

Hence, 5% of $80 is $4.

A tablet that regularly sells for $330 was on sale for 15% off. If Jeremiah paid $302.94 total including tax, what is the sales tax

Answers

Answer:

8% sales tax

Step-by-step explanation:

$330 x .15 = $49.50

$330 - $49.50 = $280.50

$302.94 - $280.50 = $22.44

$22.44/$280.50 = .08 x 100 x 8%

The solution of 12 + 2x – x = 9x + 28

Answers

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.

9x-28=x+12

We move all terms to the left:

9x-28-(x+12)=0

We get rid of parentheses

9x-x-12-28=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

8x-40=0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

8x=40

x=40/8

Of 15 possible​ books, you plan to take 7 with you on vacation. How many different collections of 7 books can you​ take?

Answers

Am I the only one that doesn’t get what the question is asking
I feel like 1 piece of information is missing

Like how much in a collection?

The number of collections of 7 books can you​ take is 1685.

What is Algebra?

Algebra is the study of abstract symbols, while logic is the manipulation of all those ideas.

The acronym PEMDAS stands for Parenthesis, Exponent, Multiplication, Division, Addition, and Subtraction. This approach is used to answer the problem correctly and completely.

We are given that;

Total books= 15

n = 15 (the number of possible books) and r = 7 (the number of books to be taken).

Now,

To find the number of different collections of 7 books, we can use the formula for combinations. Combinations are ways of selecting items from a collection, such that the order of selection does not matter.

The formula for combinations is:

nCr = n! / (r! (n - r)!)

where n is the number of items in the collection, r is the number of items to be selected, and ! is the factorial operator.

We can plug these values into the formula:

15C7 = 15! / (7! (15 - 7)!)

= 15! / (7! 8!)

= (15 x 14 x 13 x 12 x 11 x 10 x 9 x 8!) / (7! 8!)

= (15 x 14 x 13 x 12 x 11 x 10 x 9) / (7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1)

= (6435 x 1320) / (5040)

= 8491770 / 5040

= 1685.25

Since we cannot have a fraction of a collection, we round down to get the final answer:

15C7 = 1685

Therefor, by algebra the answer will be 1685.

Margaret is completing a lifeguard course and is completing the test at the end of the
course. There are 75 total questions that she needs to complete and she is 36% complete.
How many more cuestions does she need to complete
Q

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For your first question,

Total percentage of people cheering for visiting team = 45%

Total percentage of people cheering for home team = 55%

Total number of people cheering = 1200

Therefore, the number of people cheering for visiting team = 45% of 1200

                                                                                                   = [tex]\frac{45}{100}[/tex] × 1200

                                                                                                   = 45 × 12

                                                                                                    = 540 people

For your second question,

Total number of questions = 75

Total percentage of the number of questions he completed = 36%

Percentage of the amount of questions left = 100 - 36 = 64%

Therefore, the number of questions left to complete = 64% of 75

                                                                                 = [tex]\frac{64}{100}[/tex] × 75

                                                                                 = [tex]\frac{64}{20}[/tex]  × 15

                                                                                 = [tex]\frac{64}{4}[/tex] × 3

                                                                                 = 16 × 3

                                                                                 = 48 questions are left

The graph shows the level of ibuprofen, y units, in a patient’s bloodstream x hours after the ibuprofen was taken. Select the correct answer to complete the blanks in the sentence: "The level of ibuprofen in the patient's bloodstream increased from _____ hours to _____ hours."

Answers

The graph is missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

From 0 hours to 2 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the attached graph, we can see that on the y-axis, denotes the level of ibuprofen in the patient’s bloodstream while the x-axis denotes the amount of hours after the ibuprofen was taken.

Now, looking at the graph, we can see that the curve goes up from a time of 0 hours which corresponds to 0 mg of ibuprofen to a time of 2 hours which corresponds to 400 mg of ibuprofen.

After that point, the curve begins to to go down. Since we are concerned with increase, we will make do with the first statement.

Thus, we can say the period at which the level of ibuprofen increased was from 0 hours to 2 hours.

An insurance company receives nine claims per week, on average. Use this information to answer the next two questions. What is the probability that exactly 7 claims will be received in one week

Answers

Answer:

P(X = 7) = 0.11712

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given:

Average no. of claims received per week λ = 9

The required probability that exactly 7 claims will be received is determined by applying the Poisson distribution formula:

[tex]P(X=x) = \dfrac{\lambda ^x e^{-\lambda}}{x!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X=7) = \dfrac{9 ^7 e^{-9}}{7!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X=7) = \dfrac{4782969 \times1.23409804 \times 10^{-4}}{5040}[/tex]

[tex]P(X=7) = \dfrac{590.2652672}{5040}[/tex]

P(X = 7) = 0.11712

Answers

Answer:

the domain is that x is a set of real numbers.

the range is y ≤ -3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -|x + 3|

y is either positive or equal to zero.

Now, x is all real numbers because any value of x used will yield a valid value of y.

Thus, we can say that the domain is that x is a set of real numbers.

Now, for the range:

The minus sign in front of the absolute value indicates that the function has a maximum value.

Thus, the range is y ≤ -3

Indicate a general rule for the nh term of this sequence.
12a, 15a, 18a, 21a, 24a,...

Answers

Answer:

The general rule for the nth term of this sequence will be:

[tex]a_n=3na+9a[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sequence

12a, 15a, 18a, 21a, 24a,...

An arithmetic sequence has a constant difference 'd' and is defined by  

[tex]a_n=a_1+\left(n-1\right)d[/tex]

Here,

a₁ = 12a

computing the differences of all the adjacent terms

d = 15a-12a = 3a, d = 18a-15a=3a, d=21a-18a=3a, d=24a-21a=3a

using the nth term formula

[tex]a_n=a_1+\left(n-1\right)d[/tex]

substituting a₁ = 12a, d = 3a

[tex]a_n=12a+\left(n-1\right)3a[/tex]

     [tex]=12a+3na-3a[/tex]

     [tex]=3na+9a[/tex]

Therefore, the general rule for the nth term of this sequence will be:

[tex]a_n=3na+9a[/tex]
