A sofa regularly sells for $760. The sale price is $676.40. Find the percent decrease of the sale price from the regular price.

Answers

Answer: (760 - 676. 40) × 100 ÷ 760 = 11%

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

11% decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

Concepts:

Percent change is the change between an old value and its new value represented as a %. If a percent change is a decrease, it means that the new value is less than the old value. If a percent change is a increase, it means that the old value is less than the new value. The formula for percent change is: (NV - OV)/OV · 100 = C, where NV = New Value, OV = Old Value, and C = Percent Change.The sale price is the price at which something sells or sold after the price has been reduced by sales, discounts, etc.

Solving:

Let's find the percent change by using the formula.

1. Formula for Percent Change

(NV - OV)/OV · 100 = C

2. Plug in the values of NV and OV

(676.40 - 760)/760 · 100 = C

3. Simplify

-83.6/760 · 100 = C-0.11 · 100 = C-11 = C

Therefore, our percent decrease is 11% decrease.

The credit department of Lion's Department Store in Anaheim, California, reported that 30% of their sales are cash, 30% are paid with a credit card, and 40% with a debit card. Twenty percent of the cash purchases, 90% of the credit card purchases, and 60% of the debit card purchases are for more than $50. Ms. Tina Stevens just purchased a new dress that cost $120. What is the probability that she paid cash?

Answers

Answer:

Hence the probability that she paid cash is  0.105

Step-by-step explanation:  

P(cash) = 0.3  

P(credit card ) = 0.3  

P(debit card ) = 0.4  

P ( more than $50 | cash ) = 0.2  

P (more than $50 | credit card ) =0.9  

P (more than $ 50 |debit card ) = 0.6  

P ( more than $50) = P ( more than $50 | cash )* P (cash) + P (more than $50 credit card ) * P(credit card ) + P (more than $ 50 |debit card )* P(debit card )  

= 0.2 * 0.3 + 0.9 * 0.3 + 0.6* 0.4  

= 0.57  

P ( more than $50) = P ( more than $50 | cash )* P (cash) / P ( more than $50)  

= 0.2* 0.3 / 0.57  

= 0.105

Answer:

  A)  (2, ∞) . . . . or C) (-∞, 0) ∪ (2, ∞) if you don't think about it

Step-by-step explanation:

We want ...

  C(x)/x < 100

  (20x +160)/x < 100

  20 +160/x < 100 . . . . . separate the terms on the left

  160/x < 80 . . . . . . . subtract 20

  160/80 < x . . . . . multiply by x/80 . . . . . assumes x > 0

  x > 2 . . . . . . simplify

In interval notation this is (2, ∞).   matches choice A

__

Technically (mathematically), we also have ...

  160/80 > x . . . . and x < 0

which simplifies to x < 0, or the interval (-∞, 0).

If we include this solution, then choice C is the correct one.

_____

Comment on the solution

Since we are using x to count physical items, we want to assume that the practical domain of C(x) is whole numbers, where x ≥ 0, so this second interval is not in the domain of C(x). That is, the average cost of a negative number of items is meaningless.

The cost function in a computer manufacturing plant is C(x) = 0.28x^2-0.7x+1, where C(x) is the cost per hour in millions of dollars and x is the number of items produced per hour in thousands. Determine the minimum production cost.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  $562,500 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost will be a minimum where C'(x) = 0.

 C'(x) = 0.56x -0.7 = 0

  x = 0.7/0.56 = 1.25

The cost at that production point is ...

  C(1.25) = (0.28×1.25 -0.7)1.25 +1 = -0.35×1.25 +1 = 0.5625

The minimum production cost is $562,500 per hour for production of 1250 items per hour.

_____

Additional comment

This is different than the minimum cost per item. This level of production gives a per-item cost of $450. The minimum cost per item is $358.30 at a production level of 1890 per hour.

Using the relation :

n = (Z² * p * (1 - p)) / M.E²

Zcritical at 90% = 1.645

n = (1.645² * 0.58 * 0.42) / 0.03²

B.)

If no prior estimate is given, then p = 0.5 ; 1 - p = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5

n = (Z² * p * (1 - p)) / M.E²

Zcritical at 90% = 1.645

n = (1.645² * 0.5 * 0.5) / 0.03²

n = 0.67650625 / 0.0009

n = 751.67361

There is not enough information to determine the mean, the median is 28.

There is not enough information to determine the mean absolute deviation, the interquartile range is 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The box plot given has a skewed distribution, this means that both the mean and median values are not the same. From a box plot, the median value Can be obtained as the point in between the box.

From the box plot given, the marked point in between the box is 28 cm

Hence, Median = 28 cm

The mean cannot be inferred from the skewed box plot.

There is also not enough information to determine the mean absolute deviation ;

The interquartile range:

(Q3 - Q1)

Q3 = upper quartile, the endpoint of the box = 40

Q1 = the starting point of the box = 22

IQR = Q3 - Q1

IQR = 40 - 22 = 18

encircling the garden. The diameter of the
garden is 16 metres and each lane is 3 metres
wide. Each lane is to be resurfaced. Calculate
the area to be resurfaced. Answer in square
metres to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The area to be resurfaced is the area of the

whole circle including garden and lanes minus  

the area of the garden.

 

Area of a circle is (pi)r2

 

radius of garden is (1/2)diameter = 8 m

Garden area:  (pi)82 = 64(pi) m2

 

Diameter of garden plus traffic lanes is

16 + 2(6) because we add 6 m to both sides

of the diameter of the garden.

Full diameter = 16+12 = 28 m

Full radius = 28/2 = 14 m

Full area:  (pi)142 = 196(pi) m2

 

Area to be resurfaced:

196(pi) - 64(pi) = 132(pi) m2  ≅ 415 m2

A jar contains 11red marbles, 12 blue marbles and 6 white marbles. Four marbles from the jar are selected. With each marble being replaced after each selection. What is the probability that the first red marble chosen is on the 5th selection?

Answers

Answer:

Red on the 5th draw = 0.0907

Step-by-step explanation:

The first to fourth selections are all the same.

Blue + white = 12 + 6 = 18

The total number of marbles is 11 + 12 + 6 = 29

P(~ red) for the first four times = (18/29)^4 = 0,1484

Now on the 5th time, the first red is 11/18

So the Probability is 0.1484 * 11/18 = 0.0907

Answers

Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Rational Roots Test, we can say that the potential rational roots are

± (1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 18, 30, 45, 90).

Unfortunately, there doesn't really seem to be an easy way to figure out which numbers are actually roots outside of guess and check. Therefore, to solve this, we'll have to go through numbers until we hit something.

To make the process faster, I wrote a Python script as follows:

numbers = [1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 18, 30, 45, 90]

negative_numbers = [i * (-1) for i in numbers]

numbers = numbers + negative_numbers

for i in numbers:

   

   if (i**3 - 10*(i**2) + 9*i-90) == 0:

       print(i)

The result comes out as 10, meaning that 10 is our only rational root. Using the Factor Theorem, we can say that because 10 is a root, (x-10) is a factor of the polynomial. Using synthetic division, we can divide (x-10) from the polynomial to get

10 |   1     -10     9      -90

    |          10     0       90

    _________________

        1       0     9        0

Therefore, we can say that

(x³-10x²+9x-90)/(x-10) = (x²+0x+9), so

x³-10x²+9x-90 = (x-10)(x²+9)

As the only solution to x²+9=0 contains imaginary numbers, x=10 is the only solution to x³-10x²+9x-90 = (x-10)(x²+9) = 0

2 sqrt(3) * sqrt(3)/3 = n

2 = n

We have to find,

The required value of n.

Now we can,

Use the trigonometric functions.

→ tan(θ) = opp/adj

Let's find the required value of n,

→ tan (θ) = opp/adj

→ tan (30) = n/2√3

→ n = 2√3 × tan (30)

friction acting on the sliding box is (a) 100 N (6) 250. N?

Answers

Answer:

(a) 129600 J

(b) 81000 J

Step-by-step explanation:

The work done is given by the product of force and the displacement in the direction of force.

Force, F = 500 N

distance, d = 324 m

(a) friction force, f = 100 N

The work done is

W = (F - f) x d

W = (500 - 100) x 324

W = 129600 J

(b) Friction, f = 250 N

The work done is

W = (F - f) d

W = (500 - 250) x 324

W = 81000 J
