Mrs. Winthrop went to a store, spent half of her
money and then $ 10 more. She went to a
second store, spent half of her remaining money
and $ 10 more. But she then had no money left.
How much money did she have to begin with
when she went to the first store?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so I go to the store

I spend X/2 - 10 and I'm left with x/2

Then I got to store 2 and spend x/2 - 10 again and now have no money left.

So

x/2-10=0

x/2=10

x=20

Before that, she had:

x/2-10=20

x/2=30

x=60

So she started out with $60

Answer 2

She has $60, to begin with when she went to the first store.

What are Arithmetic operations?

Arithmetic operations can also be specified by adding, subtracting, dividing, and multiplying built-in functions.

The operator that performs arithmetic operations is called an arithmetic operator.

Operators let do basic mathematical calculations.

+ Addition operation: Adds values on either side of the operator.

- Subtraction operation: Subtracts the right-hand operand from the left-hand operand.

for example 4 -2 = 2

For example 4 + 2 = 6

Let she had x money before the second store.,

So x-x/2–10=0 => x = 20.

Let she had y money before the first store,

where x = y-y/2–10.

So y/2 = 20+10=30

⇒ y = 60

Hence, she has $60, to begin with when she went to the first store.

Step-by-step explanation:

-3 multiply 8 = -24

Because when ever you multiply a negative number with a positive number result will always be negative and 3 multiply 8 is 24.

Answer: -24

Step-by-step explanation: When you're asked to multiply

positives and negatives together, the rules are simple.

positive times a positive is a positive

positive times a negative is a negative

negative times a positive is a negative

negative times a negative is a positive

One way that I think will help you is to think

about the problem in terms of the signs.

If the signs are the same, the product will always be positive.

For example, (+3) · (+6) = +18 and (-6) · (-2) = +12.

If the signs are different, the product is negative.

So (+6) · (-4) is -24 and (-10) · (+5) is -50.

So don't get caught up on the signs.

Do the problem first, then determine if the

signs are the same or if they are different.

In the SuperLottery, three balls are drawn (at random) from ten white balls numbered from $1$ to $10$, and one SuperBall is drawn (at random) from ten red balls numbered from $11$ to $20$. When you buy a ticket, you choose three numbers from $1$ to $10,$ and one number from $11$ to $20$. If the numbers on your ticket match at least two of the white balls or match the red SuperBall, then you win a super prize. What is the probability that you win a super prize?

Answers

nCr(20, 2) = 190 ways of selecting 2 from 20

nCr(10, 1)    =   10 ways of selecting 1 from 10

To find the over all probability of winning,

Calculate the Harmonic Mean (19) and divide by 2

Equivalent to

c is the y intercept

a).

y = 3x + 7

Comparing this equation with the general form above

Gradient of the line = 3

b).

2y - 6x = 8

Divide both sides by 2

We have

y - 3x = 8

To make y the subject move 3x to the right side of the equation

That's

y = 3x + 8

Comparing with the general form above that's y = mx + c

The gradient = 3

c).

y = 3x + 7

A(2 , y ) , B( x , 4)

Since they lie on the line we can substitute their values into the equation to find the missing points

For A(2 ,y)

We have

y = 3(2) + 7

y = 6 + 7

y = 13

For B( x , 4)

4 = 3x + 7

3x = 4 - 7

3x = - 3

Divide both sides by 3

Answer:

[tex]2(3x-2)(x+2)=6x^2-8x-8[/tex]

The factored form of [tex]6x^2-8x-8=0[/tex] is [tex]2(3x-2)(x+2)=0[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]6x^2-8x-8=0[/tex]

The way the quadratic equation was given, we can't have a factored form in the format: [tex](ax-b)(cx+d)[/tex]

First, divide both sides by 2

[tex]3x^2-4x-4=0[/tex]

Now, it is about thinking. From the equation, we will get something in the format:  [tex](ax-b)(cx+d)[/tex]

Let's expand this: [tex](ax-b)(cx+d) = acx^2+adx-bcx-bd[/tex]

From here, we can give some values for those variables, based on the quadratic equation [tex]3x^2-4x-4=0[/tex]:

[tex](3x-b)(x+d) = 3\cdot 1\cdot x^2+3dx-b\cdot 1 \cdot x-bd= \boxed{3x^2+3dx-bx-bd}[/tex]

Once we want the middle term to be -4 and bd to be 4, we can easily evaluate the other variables.

[tex](3x-2)(x+2) = 3\cdot 1\cdot x^2+3(2)x-(2)\cdot 1 \cdot x-(2)(2)= \boxed{3x^2+6x-4x-4}[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex](3x-2)(x+2)=3x^2-4x-4[/tex]

But we are not ready yet!

This is the factored form of [tex]3x^2-4x-4=0[/tex], to get the factored form of the problem equation, just multiply the factored form we got by 2.

Find x. A. 22 B. 113–√ C. 222–√ D. 113√3

Answers

Answer:

x = 31.12

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the base (hypotenuse) of the smaller triangle (the isosceles triangle):  Its three sides are 11, 11 and b.  b can be found using the Pythagorean Theorem:  b^2 = 11^2 + 11^2 = 242.  Then b = √242, or b = approximately 15.56.

b (which is approximately 15.56) is the shorter leg of the large (right) triangle.  The trig function needed to solve for x is the cosine:

                               adjacent side

cos 60 degrees = ----------------------

                                  hypotenuse,

                                       15.56

which becomes (1/2) = ------------

                                            x

Solving this for x, we get:  x = 2(15.56) = 31.12

Arjun has two denominations of coins. Two of the smaller denomination coins and three of the larger denomination coins have a value of $2. Two of the smaller denomination coins and seven of the larger denomination coins have a value of $4. What denominations of coins does Arjun have?

Answers

Answer:

Smaller coin = s = $0.25 = 25cent.

larger coin = l = $0.5 = 50 cent

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Let the two coins be s and l

Where s = smaller denomination and l = larger denomination coins

Two of the smaller denomination coins and three of the larger denomination coins have a value of $2

2s + 3l = 2 - - - - (1)

Two of the smaller denomination coins and seven of the larger denomination coins have a value of $4

2s + 7l = 4 - - - (2)

2s + 3l = 2 - - - (1)

2s + 7l = 4 - - - (2)

Subtracting both equations

3l - 7l = 2 - 4

-4l = - 2

l = 2/4

l = 0.5

Put l = 0.5 into (1)

2s + 3l = 2

2s + 3(0.5) = 2

2s + 1.5 = 2

2s = 2 - 1.5

2s = 0.5

s = 0.5 / 2

s = 0.25

Smaller coin = s = $0.25 = 25cent.

larger coin = l = $0.5 = 50 cent

Step-by-step explanation:

The set of ordered pairs (5,7),(7,11),(9,14),(11,18) does not represents a quadratic function

What is a function?

A relation is a function if it has only One y-value for each x-value.

Given,

The set of ordered pairs

(5,7),(7,11),(9,14),(11,18)

We have to determine whether the  (5,7),(7,11),(9,14),(11,18) is quadratic function or not.

Start by representing the function as an x-y table

x:-  5 || 7 || 9 || 11

y:-  7 ||  11 || 14 || 18

The difference between the y values is not same

11-7=4

14-11=3

18-14=4

For the function to be quadratic, the above difference must be the same and since they are not, then the function does not represent a quadratic function.

Hence, the set of ordered pairs (5,7),(7,11),(9,14),(11,18) does not represents a quadratic function

On a plane trip, baggage over 40 pounds is charged at the rate per pound of 1% of the one-way fare. The charge for a bag weighing 52 pounds on a trip where the one-way fare is $98 is:

Answers

Answer:

$11.76 is the charge for bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

One way fare = $98

Weight of bag = 52 pounds

Rate per pound Charges on baggage over 40 pounds = 1% of the one-way fare

To find:

Charge for bag = ?

Solution:

Pounds more than 40 pounds = Weight of baggage - 40 pounds

[tex]\Rightarrow 52-40 = 12\ pounds[/tex]

Charges on extra baggage = 1% of one-way fare multiplied by pounds more than 40.

Here one way fare is $98.

So, charges on extra baggage will be:

[tex]1\%\ of\ 98 \times (52-40) \\\Rightarrow 1\%\ of\ 98\times (12)\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{100}\ of\ (98 \times 12)\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{100}\times (98 \times 12)\\\Rightarrow \bold{\$11.76}[/tex]

So, the charge for the baggage is $11.76.

What is the 8th term of the sequence? −16, 24, −36, 54, ... −729/8 2187/8 −2187/8 729/8

Answers

Answer:

The answer is

[tex] \frac{2187}{8} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence above is a geometric sequence

For an nth term in a geometric sequence

[tex]A(n) = a ({r})^{n - 1} [/tex]

where n is the number of terms

r is the common ratio

a is the first term

From the question

a = - 16

To find the common ratio divide the previous term by the next term

That's

r = 24/-16 = -3/2 or -36/24 = - 3/2

Since we are finding the 8th term

n = 8

Substitute the values into the above formula

That's

[tex]A(8) = - 16 ({ - \frac{3}{2} })^{8 - 1} [/tex][tex]A(8) = - 16 ({ - \frac{3}{2} })^{7} [/tex][tex]A(8) = - 16( - \frac{2187}{128} )[/tex]

There are 2 Rectangles, a red one and a blue one.The Blue rectangle has the perimeter of 250 km. If the area of the red rectangle is 2,500 square kilometers, what are its dimensions?


(Both of the rectangles have the same perimeter)

Answers

Answer:a

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

length = 100

width = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L = length of red rectangle

Let H = height of red rectangle

Equation1:   L+H=125 : we know the perimeter is 250 so L+H is 125

Equation2:   L*H=2,500 : we know the area is 2,500

Equation3:   L=125-H : subtracted H from both sides of Equation1

Equation4:   (125-H)*H=2,500 : substituted "125-H" for L into Equation2

Solve equation4:

  (125-H)*H=2,500   multiple terms on left side of equation

  125H - H^2 = 2,500   rearrange into standard form

  H^2 - 125H + 2,500 = 0

At this point you can "brute force" the answer with the quadratic formula:

H = (125 ± SQRT(125^2 - 4*1*2500) ) / 2

H = 100 or H = 25 : actually these are L and H

You could also factor the equation:

(H - 100) * (H - 25) = 0 : gives same answe
