If the profits in your consulting business increase by 8​% one year and decrease by 2% the following​ year, your profits are up by ​6% over two years.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

not true....

assume $100 start.

in year 1 you are at $108 (up 8%)

in year 2  $108(.98) ... that is 2% down = 105.84...

thus your profit is up only 5.84% over the two years

Use cross products to identify the equation needed to solve this proportion:

5
x
=
2
9

Answers

Answer:

x=22.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the proportion:

5/x=2/9

Cross multiply. Multiply the numerator (top number) of the first fraction by the denominator (bottom number) of the second. Then multiply the denominator of the first by the numerator of the second.

5*9=2*x

45=2x

2 and x are being multiplied. The opposite of multiplication is division. Divide both sides by 2. This will cancel out the 2 being multiplied by x, and leave x by itself.

45/2=2x/2

45/2=x

22.5=x

If we substitute 22.5 in for x, the final proportion will be:

5/22.5=2/9

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the angle formula to find the value of an interior angle: 180*(12-2)/12 = 150 degrees. Since an exterior angle is the supplement of an interior angle, the measure of an exterior angle is 180 - 150 = 30 degrees

Graph A

Step-by-step explanation:

correct answer on edge :)

The statement that represents the graphs of the functions f(x) and g(x) : On a coordinate plane y = g (x) starts at (0, 60) and curves up through (10, 70). Y = f (x) starts at (0, 50) and curves up through (10, 60).

What is a function?"It defines a relation between input and output values.""In function, for each input there is exactly one output."

For given question,

The total sound power, in decibels, from x objects each producing 50 decibels of sound power is given by the function f(x) = 50 + 10 log x.

If each of the x objects increases its sound power by 10 decibels, then the new total sound power, in decibels, is given by the function

g(x) = f(x) + 10.

The graph of the function f(x) would starts at (0, 50)

For x = 10 the value of the function f(x) would be,

f(10) = 50 + 10 log (10)

f(10) = 50 + 10 (1)

f(10) = 60

This means, the graph of the function f(x) passes though point (10, 60)

Also, the graph of the function g(x) would starts at (0, 60)

For x = 10 the value of the function g(x) would be,

g(10) = f(10) + 10

g(10) = 60 + 10

g(10) = 70

This means, the graph of the function g(x) passes though point (10, 70)

Therefore, on a coordinate plane y = g (x) starts at (0, 60) and curves up through (10, 70). Y = f (x) starts at (0, 50) and curves up through (10, 60).

Which of the following values cannot be​ probabilities? 3/5​, 2​, 0​, 1​, −0.45​, 1.44​, 0.05​, 5/3 Select all the values that cannot be probabilities.

Answers

Given:

The numbers are [tex]\dfrac{3}{5},2,0,1,-0.45, 1.44[/tex].

To find:

All the values that cannot be probabilities.

Solution:

We know that,

[tex]\text{Probability}=\dfrac{\text{Favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}[/tex]

The minimum value of favorable outcomes is 0 and the maximum value is equal to the total outcomes. So, the value of probability lies between 0 and 1, inclusive. It other words, the probability lies in the interval [0,1].

[tex]0\leq \text{Probability}\leq 1[/tex]

From the given values only [tex]\dfrac{3}{5}, 0, 1[/tex] lie in the interval [0,1]. So, these values can be probabilities.

The values [tex]2,-0.45, 1.44[/tex] does not lie in the interval [0,1]. So, these values cannot be probabilities.

Therefore, the correct values are [tex]2,-0.45, 1.44[/tex].

Sarah ordered 39 shirts that cost $8 each. She can sell each shirt for $16.19. She sold 32 shirts to customers. She had to return 7 shirts and pay a $1.4 charge for each returned shirt. Find Sarah's profit.

Answers

Answer:

$196.28

Step-by-step explanation:

Original cost: 39 × $8 = $312

Revenue: 32 × $16.19 = $518.08

Return charge: 7 × $1.4 = $9.8

$312 + $9.8 = total cost, which is $321.8

$518.08 - $321.8 = profit

Profit = $196.28

[tex]SSR = 1,297[/tex]

[tex]SSE= 920[/tex]

The F statistic

This is calculated using:

[tex]F = 1297 \div \frac{920}{28}[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]F = 1297 * \frac{28}{920}[/tex]

[tex]F = \frac{1297 *28}{920}[/tex]

[tex]F = \frac{36316}{920}[/tex]

a pie chart is divided into four sectors in fig. 12.42. Each sector represents a percentage of the whole. The two larger sectors are equal and each represents x%. What is the angle subtended by one of those larger sectors ?​

Answers

Answer:

Angle formed by the sector measuring x% will be 126°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, sum of all sectors formed in a circle is 100%.

By adding the measures of all the sectors,

x + x + 21 + 9 = 100

2x + 30 = 100

2x = 70

x = 35%

Now we know sum of all the central angles formed at the center of a circle = 360°

Therefore, angle formed by x% = 360° × 35%

                                                    = [tex]\frac{360\times 35}{100}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Point-slope equation is given as [tex] y - b = m(x - a) [/tex], where,

(a, b) = (-2, -5)

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

Using two points on the line (-2, -5) and (0, -1),

Slope (m) = (-1 -(-5))/(0 -(-2)) = 4/2

m = 2

✔️To write the equation in point-slope form, substitute a = -2, b = -5, and m = 2 into [tex] y - b = m(x - a) [/tex]

Answer:  45 degrees

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

Work Shown:

We can apply the law of cosines

a^2 = b^2+c^2-2*b*c*cos(A)

(sqrt(5))^2 = (sqrt(2))^2+(3)^2-2*(sqrt(2))*(3)*cos(A)

5 = 2+9-6*(sqrt(2))*cos(A)

5 = 11-6*(sqrt(2))*cos(A)

11-6*(sqrt(2))*cos(A) = 5

-6*(sqrt(2))*cos(A) = 5-11

-6*(sqrt(2))*cos(A) = -6

(sqrt(2))*cos(A) = -6/(-6)

(sqrt(2))*cos(A) = 1

cos(A) = 1/(sqrt(2))

cos(A) = sqrt(2)/2

A = 45 degrees

Use the unit circle for the last step.

Factor 2x2+25x+50. Rewrite the trinomial with the x-term expanded, using the two factors.

Answers

Answer:

rewrite: 2x^2 +5x +20x +50factored: (x +10)(2x +5)

Step-by-step explanation:

I find this approach the most straightforward of the various ways that trinomial factoring is explained or diagramed.

You want two factors of "ac" that have a total of "b". Here, that means you want factors of 2·50 = 100 that have a total of 25. It is helpful to know your times tables.

  100 = 1·100 = 2·50 = 4·25 = 5·20 = 10·10

The sums of these factor pairs are 101, 52, 29, 25, and 20. We want the pair with a sum of 25, so that's 5 and 20.

The trinomial can be rewritten using these factors as ...

  2x^2 +5x +20x +50

Then it can be factored by grouping consecutive pairs:

  (2x^2 +5x) +(20x +50) = x(2x +5) +10(2x +5) = (x +10)(2x +5)

_____

Additional comment

It doesn't matter which of the factors of the pair you write first. If our rewrite were ...

  2x^2 +20x +5x +50

Then the grouping and factoring would be (2x^2 +20x) +(5x +50)

  = 2x(x +10) +5(x +10) = (2x +5)(x +10) . . . . . same factoring

Find:

Volume of triangular pyramid

Computation:

Given base triangle is a right angle triangle

So,

Area of base = (1/2)(b)(h)

Area of base = (1/2)(3)(4)

Answer:

The area of the rectangle is increasing at a rate of 169 cm²/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

increase in the length of the rectangle, [tex]\frac{dL}{dt} = 7 \ cm/s[/tex]

increase in the width of the rectangle, [tex]\frac{dW}{dt} = 8 \ cm/s[/tex]

length, L = 15 cm

width, W = 7 cm

The increase in Area is calculated as;

[tex]Area = Length \times Width\\\\A = LW\\\\\frac{dA}{dt} = L(\frac{dW}{dt} )\ + \ W(\frac{dL}{dt} )\\\\\frac{dA}{dt} = 15 \ cm(8\ \frac{ cm}{s} ) \ + \ 7 \ cm(7\ \frac{ cm}{s} ) \\\\\frac{dA}{dt} = 120 \ cm^2/s \ + \ 49 \ cm^2/s\\\\\frac{dA}{dt} = 169 \ cm^2/s[/tex]

Therefore, the area of the rectangle is increasing at a rate of 169 cm²/s
