The price of a shirt has been discounted by $20. The sale price is $24.95. What percent of the original list price is the discount?
(a) Use the verbal description to write a verbal model.
o change in price = (original price)/(percent)
o change in price = (percent)(original price)
O change in price = (percent) - (original price)
o change in price = (original price) + (percent)
O change in price = (percent)/(original price)
(b) Assign labels to the quantities in the verbal model.
--Select-

Answer 1

Answer:

this is an example

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a few different ways to approach this problem, including the following two methods.

 

1) Find 20% of the original price, then subtract that amount from the original price. 

    To find a percentage of a number, you multiply the number by the percentage.  (You are finding a part of a whole.)

    

                   20% = 20/100 = 1/5    or   20% = 0.20

 

    Original Price: $24   Find 20% of $24.                         (Note: "of" is taking part of a whole, so you multiply.)

                

                    0.20 x 24 = 4.80            This is the mark down, or the amount you subtract from original price.

   

    Sale Price = Original Price - Mark Down   

                   =   24.00 - 4.80

                   =   19.20

 

2) If you save 20%, you are still paying 80%. (100-20 = 80) Therefore the sale price is 80% of the original price.

 

                    80% = 80/100 = 4/5     or    80% = 0.80

 

     Sale Price = 80% of Original Price

                    = 0.80 x 24

                    = 19.20

A triangle is dilated by scale factor of 1/5 in a rotated night degrees clockwise about the origin why is the image similar to the pre image

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  conditions for similarity are not violated by the transformation

Step-by-step explanation:

Dilation changes linear measures proportionally, and has no effect on angles. Rotation changes neither lengths nor angles. Hence the dilated, rotated triangle has the same angles as the original, and has proportional side lengths. Those are the requirements for figures to be similar, so the triangles are similar.

Answer:

The corresponding angles of the triangles are congruent

The image is a reduction of the pre-image

Neither the dilation nor the rotation change the shape of the triangle

Explanation:

For shapes to be similar:

1- there should be a ratio between the sides

2- angles in first shape should be congruent to angles in second shape

Now, a scale factor of 0.2 means that the sides of the image are 0.2 of the length of the original shape. However, angles are not changes

Let's check the choices:

1- The corresponding sides of the triangles are congruent:

This option is incorrect as dilation changes the lengths of the sides

2- The corresponding angles of the triangles are congruent:

This option is correct as neither dilation nor rotation alters the measures of the angles

3- The corresponding sides of the image are 5 times as long as those of the pre-image:

This option is incorrect as the sides of the image are only 0.2 times as long as those of the pre-image

4- The image is a reduction of the pre-image:

This option is correct as the sides of the image are 0.2 times those of the pre-image which means that the shape is reduced

5- Neither the dilation nor the rotation change the shape of the triangle:

This option is correct as both dilation and rotation are rigid transformations that do not alter the shape of the triangle (a triangle remains a triangle only with different side lengths)

6- The rotation reduces the size of the triangle:

This option is incorrect as rotation does not alter the size of the shape. It only changes its position

Passed Failed
Male 58 14

Since P(male)xP(fail) = ___and P(male and fail)= ,___ the two results are_______ - so the events are________

Answers

Answer:

Since P(male)xP(fail) = 0.0549 and and P(male and fail) = 0.0773, the two results are different, so the events are not independent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Independent events:

Two events, A and B are independent, if:

[tex]P(A \cap B) = P(A)P(B)[/tex]

Probability of male:

58 + 14 = 72 males out of 58 + 14 + 98 + 11 = 181

So

P(male) = 72/181 = 0.3978

Probability of failling:

14 + 11 = 25 students fail out of 181. So

P(fail) = 28/181 = 0.1381

Multiplitication of male and failling:

0.3978*0.1381 = 0.0549

Probability of being male and failing:

14 out of 181. So

14/181 = 0.0773

Different probabilities, so not independent.

Since P(male)xP(fail) = 0.0549 and and P(male and fail) = 0.0773, the two results are different, so the events are not independent.

Suppose X has an exponential distribution with mean equal to 11. Determine the following: (a) (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.) (b) (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.) (c) (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.) (d) Find the value of x such that . (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P(X > 11) = 0.368[/tex]

[tex]P(X > 22) = 0.135[/tex]

[tex]P(X > 33) = 0.050[/tex]

[tex]x = 33[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]E(x) = 11[/tex] --- Mean

Required (Missing from  the question)

[tex](a)\ P(X>11)[/tex]

[tex](b)\ P(X>22)[/tex]

[tex](c)\ P(X>33)[/tex]

(d) x such that [tex]P(X <x)=0.95[/tex]

In an exponential distribution:

[tex]f(x) = \lambda e^{-\lambda x}, x \ge 0[/tex] --- the pdf

[tex]F(x) = 1 - e^{-\lambda x}, x \ge 0[/tex] --- the cdf

[tex]P(X > x) = 1 - F(x)[/tex]

In the above equations:

[tex]\lambda = \frac{1}{E(x)}[/tex]

Substitute 11 for E(x)

[tex]\lambda = \frac{1}{11}[/tex]

Now, we solve (a) to (d) as follows:

Solving (a): P(X>11)

[tex]P(X > 11) = 1 - F(11)[/tex]

Substitute 11 for x in [tex]F(x) = 1 - e^{-\lambda x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X > 11) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\frac{1}{11}* 11})[/tex]

[tex]P(X > 11) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\frac{11}{11}})[/tex]

[tex]P(X > 11) = 1 - (1 - e^{-1})[/tex]

Remove bracket

[tex]P(X > 11) = 1 - 1 + e^{-1}[/tex]

[tex]P(X > 11) = e^{-1}[/tex]

[tex]P(X > 11) = 0.368[/tex]

Solving (b): P(X>22)

[tex]P(X > 22) = 1 - F(22)[/tex]

Substitute 22 for x in [tex]F(x) = 1 - e^{-\lambda x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X > 22) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\frac{1}{11}* 22})[/tex]

[tex]P(X > 22) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\frac{22}{11}})[/tex]

[tex]P(X > 22) = 1 - (1 - e^{-2})[/tex]

Remove bracket

[tex]P(X > 22) = 1 - 1 + e^{-2}[/tex]

[tex]P(X > 22) = e^{-2}[/tex]

[tex]P(X > 22) = 0.135[/tex]

Solving (c): P(X>33)

[tex]P(X > 33) = 1 - F(33)[/tex]

Substitute 33 for x in [tex]F(x) = 1 - e^{-\lambda x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X > 33) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\frac{1}{11}* 33})[/tex]

[tex]P(X > 33) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\frac{33}{11}})[/tex]

[tex]P(X > 33) = 1 - (1 - e^{-3})[/tex]

Remove bracket

[tex]P(X > 33) = 1 - 1 + e^{-3}[/tex]

[tex]P(X > 33) = e^{-3}[/tex]

[tex]P(X > 33) = 0.050[/tex]

Solving (d): x when [tex]P(X <x)=0.95[/tex]

Here, we make use of:

[tex]P(X<x) = F(x)[/tex]

Substitute [tex]F(x) = 1 - e^{-\lambda x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X<x) = 1 - e^{-\lambda x}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]0.95 = 1 - e^{-\lambda x}[/tex]

Subtract 1 from both sides

[tex]0.95 -1= 1-1 - e^{-\lambda x}[/tex]

[tex]-0.05=- e^{-\lambda x}[/tex]

Reorder the equation

[tex]e^{-\lambda x} = 0.05[/tex]

Substitute 1/11 for [tex]\lambda[/tex]

[tex]e^{-\frac{1}{11} x} = 0.05[/tex]

Solve for x:

[tex]x = -\frac{1}{1/11}\ ln(0.05)[/tex]

[tex]x = -11\ ln(0.05)[/tex]

[tex]x = 32.9530550091[/tex]

[tex]x = 33[/tex] --- approximated

The equation p = 100 – 5t represents the percent p of battery power remaining in a tablet after t hours.

Answers

Answer:

t=-p/5+20

Step-by-step explanation:

p=100−5t

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

100−5t=p

Subtract 100 from both sides.

−5t=p−100

Divide both sides by −5.

−5t/5 = p - 100/-5

Dividing by −5 undoes the multiplication by −5.

t = p - 100/-5

Divide p−100 by −5.

t=-p/5+20

what information is necessary to prove that the two triangles are similar by the AA similarity theorem? show your work​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us begin with the AA Similarity definition. It states that if two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, then the triangles are similar.

This means that we need:

An angle of one triangle that is congruent to an angle of the other triangle.Another angle of one triangle that is congruent to another angle of the other triangle.

For this problem, it is unclear that there are more than one angles that are congruent to each other. We see that angle <DEF and <ABC are congruent, but the problem does not give any other angles. In another case, we must find one more to prove similarity by the AA similarity theorem.

Which graph represents the parametric equations x = 1 – t2 and y = 2t, where 0 ≤ t ≤ 5?

ANSWER: A

Answers

After plotting the above equation on the coordinate plane, we can see the graph of the function.

What are parametric equations?

A parametric equation in mathematics specifies a set of numbers as functions of one or more independent variables known as parameters.

We have two parametric equations:

x = 1 – t² and

y = 2t

t = y/2  and

0 ≤ t² ≤ 5

1 ≤ 1 - t²≤ 4

1 ≤ x≤ 4

Plug the above value in x = 1 – t²

x = 1- (y/2)²

x = 1 - y²/4

4x = 4 - y²

y² = 4(1 - x)

Thus, after plotting the above equation on the coordinate plane, we can see the graph of the function.
