At the grocery store last week, small boxes of facial tissue were on sale at 4 boxes for $5. This week they mark a new price at 5 boxes for $4. What is the percent decrease in the price per box this week?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 36%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the price last week, was 4 boxes for $5. Therefore, the price per box will be:

= $5/4

= $1.25 per box

This week they mark a new price at 5 boxes for $4. The price per box will be:

= $4/5

= $0.8 per box

The percent decrease in the price per box this week will be:

= (1.25 - 0.80)/1.25 × 100

= 0.45/1.25 × 100

= 36%

The Percentage decrease is 36%

(2x–y)²–(y+2)²-----------

Answers

Answer:

4x² -4xy -4y -4

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\boxed{ {a}^{2} - {b}^{2} = (a + b)(a - b)}[/tex]

In this case, a= 2x -y and b= y +2.

(2x -y)² -(y +2)²

= (2x -y +y +2)[2x -y -(y +2)]

= (2x +2)(2x -y -y -2)

= (2x +2)(2x -2y -2)

= 2x(2x) +2x(-2y) +2x(-2) +2(2x) +2(-2y) +2(-2) (expand)

= 4x² -4xy -4x +4x -4y -4

= 4x² -4xy -4y -4

Alternatively, start by expanding the brackets.

[tex]\boxed{(a - b)^{2} = {a}^{2} - 2ab \: + {b}^{2} }[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{(a + b)^{2} = {a}^{2} + 2ab \: + {b}^{2} }[/tex]

(2x -y)² -(y +2)²

= 4x² -4xy +y² -(y² +4y +4)

= 4x² -4xy +y² -y² -4y -4 (expand)

= 4x² -4xy -4y -4 (simplify)

Sam is skiing down a mountain. He starts at the peak 97 yards above sea level and skis down the mountain at a rate of 1.5 yards per second. If it takes him 3 minutes to reach flat ground at sea level, what is the measure of the angle that the mountain slope forms with the ground at sea level to the nearest degree?

Answers

Answer:

5.2 degrees the mountain slope forms with the ground at sea level

The angle that the mountain slope forms with the ground at sea level is 20.64°

What is speed?

"The distance covered by an object in unit time."

What is hypotenuse?

"The longest side of a right triangle."

What is sine angle?

"In a right triangle for angle θ ,

sin(θ) = opposite side / hypotenuse "

For given example,

Consider the following figure for given example.

Sam starts skiing at the peak 97 yards above sea level.

⇒ XY = 97 yards

He skis down the mountain at a rate of 1.5 yards per second.

speed = 1.5 yards per second

It takes him 3 minutes to reach flat ground at sea level.

⇒ t = 3 minutes

⇒ t = 180 seconds

XZ is the distance between peak of a mountain and the ground.

Using speed formula,

speed = XZ / times

⇒ 1.5 = XZ / 180

⇒ XZ = 1.5 × 180

⇒ XZ = 270 yards

This means the hypotenuse of right triangle XYZ is 270 yards.

Now, we need to find the angle that the mountain slope forms with the ground at sea level.

[tex]\Rightarrow sin(\theta)=\frac{XY}{XZ}\\\\\Rightarrow sin(\theta)=\frac{97}{270}\\\\ \Rightarrow sin(\theta)=0.3526\\\\ \Rightarrow \theta = sin^{-1}(0.3526)\\\\\Rightarrow \theta=20.64^{\circ}[/tex]

Therefore, the angle that the mountain slope forms with the ground at sea level is 20.64°

In a game for 24 groups, the average number of children was 16. When one more group of children was formed to join in the game, the average number of children became 18. The number of boys to girls who had just joined in the game was in the ratio 5:6. If there were 220 boys at first, how many more boys than girls were in the end?

Answers

Answer:

50 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of groups = 24

The average number of children = 16

The new average number of children when one group is added = 18

The ratio of boys to girls in the group that just joined = 5:6

The initial number of boys = 220

Let the initial number of children

The initial total number of children = 24 × 16 = 384

The initial number of girls = 384 - 220 = 164

The final number of children = 25 × 18 = 450

The number of children in the group that joined in the game = 450 - 384 = 66

The ratio of boys to girls in the group = 5:6

Therefore, we get;

The number of boys = 66 × 5/11 = 30

The number of girls = 66 - 30 = 36

The number of boys at the end = 220 + 30 = 250

The number of girls at the end = 164 + 36 = 200

The number of more boys than girls at the end = 250 - 200 = 50

The number of more boys than girls at the end = 50 boys

Em 2016 o brasil vendeu para o exterior cerca de 3,5 milhoes de ingressos para espectadores estrangeiros sabendo total de ingressos vendidos é de 7,9 milhoes a quantia de ingressos vendida para a população brasileira foi de? a) 4.050.000 B) 4.400.000 C) 5.000.000 D) 5.500.000

Answers

Responder:

4.400.000

Explicação passo a passo:

A quantidade total de ingressos vendidos = 7,9 milhões = 7.900.000

Desse total, o valor vendido ao espectador estrangeiro = 3,5 milhões, = 3,5 milhões

O valor dos ingressos vendidos ao espectador brasileiro será a diferença entre o valor total do ingresso vendido e o total vendido ao espectador estrangeiro.

7.900.000 - 3.500.000 = 4.400.000

To find the area of the base, multiply 15 times 16 then divide by 2

Then multiply by 19 to find the volume of the shape

Step-by-step explanation:

The base is a triangle

The area of a triangle = base length times height divided by 2

The triangle has a base length of 16 and a height of 15

So to find the area of the base we multiply 15 times 16 and divide that by 2

The volume of a prism is equal to the area of the base times the length of the prism

The length of the prism is 19 so we would then multiply by 19

But I am skeptical that you would earn dollars where you would be working... I assume that you do not work in the is because 11 dollars per hour is written at $11/hr not 11$ /hr, thus I assume that you do not live anywhere that pays in U.S. dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: $385440 if you work non stop, for every hour of those 4 years

Step-by-step explanation: 24 hours in a day, 24*365=8760

8760*4=35040 total hours.

Now if we multiply that by 11, because you get 11 dollars an hour,

35040*11= $385440 in total

But that's not counting items you may buy, and it also assumes you work every hour of every day. If you want a more realistic amount, you're gonna have to specify the hours that you work.

The slope of a line that passes through the points (-6, w) and (-10, 4) ls 1/8. What is the
value of w?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle w=\frac{9}{2}=4.5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use slope formula:

[tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

So:

[tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{4-w}{-10-(-6)}=\frac{4-w}{-10+6}=\frac{4-w}{-4}[/tex]

We are given that this equals 1/8. Therefore:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{4-w}{-4}=\frac{1}{8}[/tex]

Solve for w. Cross-multiply:

[tex]-4(1)=8(4-w)[/tex]

Distribute:

[tex]-4=32-8w[/tex]

Isolate:

[tex]-8w=-36[/tex]

So:

[tex]\displaystyle w=\frac{-36}{-8}=\frac{9}{2}=4.5[/tex]

Write an expression in simplest form for the perimeter of a right triangle with leg lengths of 12a5 and 9a5.

Answers

Given:

The lengths of legs of a right triangle are [tex]12a^5[/tex] and [tex]9a^5[/tex].

To find:

The perimeter of a right triangle.

Solution:

In a right angle triangle,

[tex]Hypotenuse=\sqrt{Leg_1^2+Leg_2^2}[/tex]

[tex]Hypotenuse=\sqrt{(12a^5)^2+(9a^5)^2}[/tex]

[tex]Hypotenuse=\sqrt{144a^{10}+81a^{10}}[/tex]

[tex]Hypotenuse=\sqrt{225a^{10}}[/tex]

On further simplification, we get

[tex]Hypotenuse=\sqrt{(15a^{5})^2}[/tex]

[tex]Hypotenuse=15a^5[/tex]

Now, the perimeter of the triangle is the sum of all of its sides.

[tex]Perimeter=Leg_1+Leg_2+Hypotenuse[/tex]

[tex]Perimeter=12a^5+9a^5+15a^5[/tex]

[tex]Perimeter=36a^5[/tex]

Therefore, the perimeter of the right triangle is [tex]36a^5[/tex].

2x - 3×(2 - 3x/2) = 7

2x - 6 + 9x/2 = 7

4x/2 + 9x/2 = 13

13x/2 = 13
