Answer:
p=(-0.0125n) + 42.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let p= price
n = number of shirts
m = slope of the line (note, the more shirts, the lower the price, so we know it's going to be negative)
b = y intercept
There are two points which are (1000, $30) and (3000, $5)
Our slope m = (p1-p2)/(n1-n2)
Filling in from our points m = (30-5)/(1000-3000)
m = 25/-2000
m = -0.0125
Since we have determined our slope, we can now find our equation
p-p1=m(n-n1)
p-30=(-0.0125)(n-1000)
p-30= (-0.0125n) + 12.5
p=(-0.0125n) + 42.5
Then, we can double check with the other point there:
p=(-0.0125n) + 42.5
5? (-0.0125x 3000) + 42.5
5= 5
Therefore,linear equation in the form p(n) is
p=(-0.0125n) + 42.5

what is the coefficient of x in the equation of 32+2x=10
solve after finding the coefficient
Answer:
x= -11
Step-by-step explanation:
the coefficient is variable that appears before a number . bearing this in mind, the coefficient of x is therefore 2 .
the value of x is:
>32+2x=10
>2x=10-32
>2x= -22
>x= -11
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Coefficient of x = 2
32 + 2x = 10
Subtract 32 from both side
32 + 2x -32 = 10 - 32
2x = - 22
Divide both sides by 2
2x/2 = -22/2
x = -11

Point B lies between points A and C, and all three points lie on point AC, which of the following is not true? A. Point B lies on segment AC B. Point C lies on ray AB C. Point A lies on ray BC D. Point C lies on line AB
Answer:
C. Point A lies on ray BC
Step-by-step explanation:
Points A and C can be connected by a segment which would be a measure of the distance between the points. Locating point B between AC, makes the three points lying on segment AC.
A ray extends from a point to infinity, a line extend to infinity on both sides, while a segment is known to have two endpoints. Therefore, points AC are the end points of the segment AC, and point B between this segment confirms that point B lies on the segment AC. Therefore, Point A lies on ray BC is not correct.

The symmetry line is a vertical line passing through (2, -9)
2) The x-intercept are (5, 0) and (-1, 0)
The y-intercept is (0, -5)
The vertex is (2, -9)
Step-by-step explanation:
The given function is;
f(x) = x² - 4·x - 5
The data values are generated as follows;
x, f(x)
-1, 0
-0.8, -1.16
-0.6, -2.24
-0.4, -3.24
-0.2, -4.16

5, 0
The minimum is found from differentiating the function, f(x), with respect to x and looking for the zeros of the result as follows;
f'(x) = 2·x -4
f'(x) = 0 = 2·x -4
x = 2
The y-coordinate gives; f(2) = 2² - 4×2 - 5 = -9
Therefore, the symmetry line is a vertical line passing through (2, -9)
The x-intercept is the point at which y = 0, therefore, from f(x) = x² - 4·x - 5, we have;
0 = x² - 4·x - 5 = (x - 5)·(x + 1)
Therefore, the x-intercept are x = 5 or -1
The x-intercept are (5, 0) and (-1, 0)
The y-intercept occur at the point where the x value = 0, therefore, we have;
The y-intercept occur at y = f(0) = 0² - 4·0 - 5 = -5
The y-intercept is (0, -5)
Re-writing the equation in vertex form y = a(x - h)² + k gives;
f(x) = x² - 4·x - 5 = 1·(x - 2)² - 9
Therefore, the vertex is (2, -9)
Answer:
see attached graph
The x-intercept are (5, 0) and (-1, 0)
The y-intercept is (0, -5)
The vertex is (2, -9)

S(t) = -105t + 945 to determine the salvage value, S(t), in dollars, of a table saw t years after its purchase. How long will it take the saw to depreciate completely? A. 11 years B. 8 years C. 7 years D. 9 years
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
When something depreciates completely, it will have a total value of 0 dollars. Therefore, set the equation to zero and solve for t to find the years.
[tex]S(t)=-105t+945\\0=-105t+945\\-105t=-945\\t=9[/tex]
Therefore, the table saw will completely depreciate after 9 years.
Answer:
[tex]\large \boxed{\sf \bold{D.} \ 9 \ years}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]S(t) = -105t + 945[/tex]
For the value to depreciate completely, the amount has to be equal to 0 dollars.
Set S(t) to 0.
[tex]0 = -105t + 945[/tex]
Solve for the time t.
Subtract 945 from both sides.
[tex]0 -945= -105t + 945-945[/tex]
[tex]-945=-105t[/tex]
Divide both sides by -105.
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{-945}{-105}=\frac{-105t}{-105}[/tex]
[tex]9=t[/tex]
It will take 9 years for the saw to depreciate completely.
In 2008, golfer Annika Sornestam had a driving accuracy of 71%. That is, on par 4 and par 5 holes, her tee shot landed in the fairway 71% of the time. Explain how to use a spinner to simulate Sorenstam’s performance in a round of golf where she attempts 15 drives. (Hint: What type of chart is a spinner? What does each piece represent?)
Answer:
Ok, we know that the driving accuracy is of 71%.
Then the first step is to get a spinner that is enumerated from 1 to 100 (in such way that each number is equispaced)
Now, we can mark a section between numbers 1 and 71. (this regio represents the cases where the shot lands in the fairway) and the unmarked region represents the cases where the shot does not land in the fairway.
Now, for each shot, we can spin our spinner next to a fixed pencil, depending on the section of the spinner that is marked by the pencil when the spinner fully stops, we can guess if the shot landed or not in the fairway.
In this way the shot has the region from 1 to 71 (71%) to land in the fairway
and the region from 72 to 100 to not land in the fairway.
If you want to simulate Sorenstam’s performance in a round of golf where she attempts 15 drives, you need to spin the spinner 15 times, and record the oucomes.
it a cycle is sold for rs 17250 there is again of rs 2250. what is the gain percentage
Answer:
15%
Step-by-step explanation:
profit=sp -cp
cp=sp-profit
=17250-2250
=15000
profit%= profit amount/cp *100%
=2250/15000×100
= 15
Answer:
[tex] \boxed{ \boxed{ \sf{ \bold{ \purple{15\%}}}}}[/tex]Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
SP ( Selling price ) = Rs 17250
Profit ( P ) = Rs 2250
CP ( Cost price ) = Rs 17250 - Rs 2250 = Rs 15000
Now, let's find the profit / gain percentage :
Profit % = [tex] \sf{ \frac{profit}{cost \: price} \times 100\%}[/tex]
plug the values
⇒[tex] \sf{ \frac{2250}{15000} \times 100\%}[/tex]

Answer:
Option (4)
Step-by-step explanation:
By the theorem of inscribed angles and the intercepted arc,
"In a circle, angles subtended by the same arc always measure the same and the arc measures the double of the inscribed angle."
If an inscribed angle in a circle measures 75° then all inscribed angles by the same arc will measure 75°.
In addition to this, measure of arc subtended by these inscribed angle will measure double of the inscribed angle (150°)
Therefore, Option (4) will be the answer.
If L is the line having x -intercept of -1 and y -intercept of 3, complete the equation of L . y = -x + 3 y = -3x + 3 y = 3x + 3
Answer:
y = 3x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 1, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, 3) ← x and y- intercepts
m = [tex]\frac{3-0}{0+1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{1}[/tex] = 3
The line crosses the y- axis at (0, 3) ⇒ c = 3
y = 3x + 3 ← equation of line

An orchardist is to plant apple trees and pear trees in the ratio 3:11. If he intends to plant 150 apple trees, how many pear trees will he need to plant?
The ratio 2:11 means for every 3 apple trees they will plant 11 pear trees.
They are planting 150 apple trees. Divide total apple trees by the ratio: 150/3 = 50
Multiply that by the ratio of pear trees:
50 x 11 = 550
They need to plant 550 pear trees.

An air traffic controller is tracking two planes. To start, Plane A is at an altitude of 3028 feet and Plane B is at an altitude of 4000 feet. Plane A is gaining altitude at 55.75 feet per second and Plane B is gaining altitude at 35.5 feet per second. How many seconds will pass before the planes are at the same altitude? seconds What will their altitude be when they're at the same altitude? feet
Consider plane A with respect to B,
initial relative Altitude [tex] h_{a, b}=h_a-h_b=-972 [/tex]
relative rate of altitude(speed) $r_{a,b}= 55.75-35.5=20.25$
To get at same altitude, they'll take same time, and their relative height will be $0$ So,
$H_{a,b}=h_{a,b}+r_{a,b}t$
$0=-972+20.25t$
$t=48$
and altitude will be, $3028+55.75\cdot 48=5704$
Answer:
48 seconds5704 feetStep-by-step explanation:
We can write equations for the altitude of each plane:
A(t) = 3028 +55.75t . . . . . initially at 3028 ft; gaining at 55.75 ft/s
B(t) = 4000 +35.5t . . . . . initially at 4000 ft; gaining at 35.5 ft/s
The two altitudes will be equal when ...
A(t) = B(t)
3028 +55.75t = 4000 +35.5t . . . . substitute the expressions for A and B
20.25t = 972 . . . . . . subtract 3028+35.5t
t = 48 . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 20.25
The common altitude will be ...
B(48) = 4000 +35.5(48) = 5704 . . . . feet
The planes will both be at an altitude of 5704 feet after 48 seconds.

Consider the following system of equations: y=2x−2 6x+3y=2 The graph of these equations consists of two lines that: 1. intersect at more than one point. 2. intersect in an infinite number of points. 3. intersect at exactly one point. 4. do not intersect.
Answer:
3. Intersect at exactly one point. ( (2/3), (-2/3) )
Step-by-step explanation:
To make the comparison of these lines easier, let's rewrite the 2nd equation into slope-intercept form, as the 1st equation is in slope-intercept form.
[1] y = 2x - 2
---------------------
[2] 6x + 3y = 2 ==> 3y = 2 - 6x ==> y = -2x + (2/3)
[2] y = -2x + (2/3)
So now that we have both equations in slope-intercept form, we can see that the two equations are both linear, have different slopes, and have different y-intercepts.
Since these equations have both different slopes and different y-intercepts, we know that the lines will cross at least one point. We can confirm that the lines only cross at a single point using the fact that both equations are linear, meaning there will only be one point of crossing. To find that point, we can simply set the equations equal to each other.
y = 2x - 2
y = -2x + (2/3)
2x - 2 = -2x + (2/3)
4x = (8/3)
x = (8/12) = (2/3)
And plug this x value back into one of the equations:
y = 2x - 2
y = 2(2/3) - 2
y = (4/3) - (6/3)
y = (-2/3)
Thus these lines only cross at the point ( (2/3), (-2/3) ).
Cheers.
Answer:
I don't understand the question
Hey there please help me with this question
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
sum the parts of the ratio, 2 + 1 = 3 parts , thus
81 cm² ÷ 3 = 27 cm² ← value of 1 part of the ratio
2 parts = 2 × 27 = 54 cm²
Area of A = 54 cm² and area of B = 27 cm²
The side of the original square = [tex]\sqrt{81}[/tex] = 9 cm
The width of both rectangles is 9 cm ( width remains unchanged after cut )
Thus
Rectangle A
9 × length = 54 ( divide both sides by 9 )
length = 6 cm
Rectangle B
9 × length = 27 ( divide both sides by 9 )
length = 3 cm
Rectangle A → length = 6 cm, width = 9 cm
Rectangle B → length = 3 cm , width = 9 cm
Answer:
Rectangle A Rectangle B
length = 9 cm length = 9 cm
width = 6 cm width = 3 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of square At = 81 cm²
Square is cut into two pieces = A + B
The ration of area A to B = 2:1
Find
Rect A Rect B
length length
width width
---------------------------------
first, get the side of the square = A = s²
81 = s²,
s = √81
s = 9 cm
since the ratio is 2:1, therefore the side can be divided into 3
9 ÷ 3 = 3 cm ----- take note of this to get the Width
Rectangle A
L = 9 cm (which is the s = 9 cm)
W = 3 cm (2 ratio) = 6 cm
Rectangle B
L = 9 cm (which is the s = 9 cm)
W = 3 cm (1 ratio) = 3 cm
Proof:
At = A + B
81 = (9x6) + (9x3)
81 = 54 + 27
81 = 81 ----- OK
Make up an expression of your own that satisfies the following:
Must have at least: 4 terms, 1 constant, 2 variables with coefficients and appropriate
operation signs.
There are infinitely many ways to answer this as there is no one single answer to pick from.
Here is one possible answer: x^3 + 5x^2 + 7x + 12The four terms are x^3, 5x^2, 7x and 12. They are separated by the plus signs.
The constant is 12. It does not have any variable attached to it.
Terms 5x^2 and 7x have coefficients of 5 and 7 respectively.
The leading term x^3 has a coefficient of 1, but 1*x^3 = x^3, meaning it's convention to leave the 1 out. So technically x^3 does not have a coefficient directly written/shown. Instead, its more implied.

Also, the largest power for the variable init (y) is the power 2, therefore it is a trinomial of degree 2.
11 Points Estimate the average by first rounding to the nearest 1,000: 1,000 2,300 2,600
Answer:
Average = 2000
Step-by-step explanation:
Given numbers are:
1,000 2,300 2,600
To find:
First round off the numbers to nearest 1000 and then find Average.
Solution:
1000 is already in thousands so no need to round off.
To round off a number to nearest thousand, we need check the digit on hundred's place.
If the hundred's digit is greater than 5, we increase the thousand's digit by 1 and make the hundred's digit as 0.If the hundred's digit is lesser than 5, the thousand's digit remains the same and we make the hundred's digit as 0.So, 2300 will be rounded off as 2000.
and 2600 will be rounded off as 3000.
Now, the numbers whose average is to be calculated are 1000, 2000, 3000.
Formula for average is given as:
[tex]Average = \dfrac{\text{Sum of all numbers}}{\text{Count of numbers}}[/tex]
applying the formula:
[tex]Average = \dfrac{1000+2000+3000}{3}\\\Rightarrow Average = \dfrac{6000}{3}\\\Rightarrow \bold{Average = 2000}[/tex]
So, the average after rounding off to nearest 1000 is 2000.
The figure below shows a parallelogram ABCD Side AB parallel to side DC and side AD is parallel to side BC A student wrote the following sentences to prove that parallelogram ABCD has two pairs of opposite sides equal For triangles and COB alternate interior angle ABD is congruent to angle CDB because AB and DC are parallel lines Similarly interior angle equal to angle CBD because AD and are parallel lines equal to DB by the reflexive property Therefore , triangles ABD and COB are congruent by the SAS postulate Therefore AB congruent to and AD congruent BC CPCTC Which statement best describes a flaw in the student's proof ?
Answer:
Second choice
Explanation :
The postulate that is used in order to prove the congruency of the triangles is the ASA which means (Angle – Side – Angle). The property that is applicable for the congruency of DB to itself is the reflexive property. Therefore, the answer to this item is the second choice.
Hope I helped! :)
If yes mark me BRAINLIEST!
Tysm!
Triangles ABD and CDB are congruent to each other by the ASA theorem. The student used SAS which is wrong. The answer is: D.
What is the ASA Theorem?The ASA theorem states that two triangles that have a pair of corresponding included congruent sides and two pairs of corresponding congruent angles are congruent triangles.

On a coordinate plane, parallelogram H I J K is shown. Point H is at (negative 2, 2), point I is at (4, 3), point J is at (4, negative 2), and point K is at (negative 2, negative 3). HIJK is a parallelogram because the midpoint of both diagonals is __________, which means the diagonals bisect each other
Answer: HIJK is a parallelogram because the midpoint of both diagonals is (1,0) , which means the diagonals bisect each other.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The coordinates of parallelogram H I J K as
H is at (- 2, 2), point I is at (4, 3), point J is at (4, - 2), and point K is at (- 2, - 3).
Diagonals : HJ and IK [join opposite vertices]
Mid point of HJ = [tex](\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2})[/tex]
[tex]=(\dfrac{-2+4}{2},\dfrac{2+(-2)}{2})=(1,0)[/tex]
i.e. Mid point of HJ = (1,0)
Mid point of IK = [tex](\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2})[/tex]
[tex]=(\dfrac{4+(-2)}{2},\dfrac{3+(-3)}{2})=(1,0)[/tex]
i.e. Mid point of IK = (1,0) =Mid point of HJ
When mid points of both diagonals are equal then that means the diagonals bisect each other.
Thus, HIJK is a parallelogram because the midpoint of both diagonals is (1,0) , which means the diagonals bisect each other.
Answer:
(1,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
Claire and Richard are both artists who use square canvases. Claire
uses the polynomial 50%? + 250 to decide how much to charge for her paintings
and Richard uses the polynomial 40x² + 350 to decide how much to charge for
his paintings. In each polynomial, x is the height of the painting in feet.
a. How much does Claire charge for a 20-foot-tall painting?
b. How much does Richard charge for a 15-foot-tall painting?
c. To the nearest tenth, for what height will both Claire and Richard charge
the same amount for a painting? Explain how to find the answer.
d. When both Claire and Richard charge the same amount for a painting,
how much does each charge?
Answer:
A. [tex]Claire = 20250[/tex]
B. [tex]Richard = 9350[/tex]
C. Height = 3.2 feet
D. Charges = $760
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Claire = 50x^2 + 250[/tex]
[tex]Richard = 40x^2 + 350[/tex]
Solving (a): Claire's 20ft charges
In this case, x = 20
Substitute 20 for x in [tex]Claire = 50x^2 + 250[/tex]
[tex]Claire = 50(20)^2 + 250[/tex]
[tex]Claire = 50(400) + 250[/tex]
[tex]Claire = 20000 + 250[/tex]
[tex]Claire = 20250[/tex]
Solving (b): Richard's 15ft charges
In this case, x = 15
Substitute 20 for x in [tex]Richard = 40x^2 + 350[/tex]
[tex]Richard = 40(15)^2 + 350[/tex]
[tex]Richard = 40(225) + 350[/tex]
[tex]Richard = 9000 + 350[/tex]
[tex]Richard = 9350[/tex]
Solving (c): Height which they both charge the same;
This implies that
[tex]50x^2 + 250 = 40x^2 + 350[/tex]
Solving for x [Collect Like Terms\
[tex]50x^2 - 40x^2 = 350 - 250[/tex]
[tex]10x^2 = 100[/tex]
Divide both sides by 10
[tex]x^2 = 10[/tex]
Take square roots of both sides
[tex]x = \sqrt{10}[/tex]
[tex]x = 3.2ft[/tex] (Approximated)
Hence; Height = 3.2 feet
Solving (d): How much they charge when the charge the same amount.
Substitute 3.2 for x in any of the given equation
[tex]Claire = 50x^2 + 250[/tex]
[tex]Claire = 50(3.2)^2 + 250[/tex]
[tex]Claire = 50*10.24 + 250[/tex]
[tex]Claire = 512 + 250[/tex]
[tex]Claire = 762[/tex]
[tex]Richard = 40x^2 + 350[/tex]
[tex]Richard = 40(3.2)^2 + 350[/tex]
[tex]Richard = 40 * 10.24 + 350[/tex]
[tex]Richard = 409.6 + 350[/tex]
[tex]Richard = 759.6[/tex]
The reason for the difference is due to approximation
Hence, they both charge approximately 760
