Shirley buys fiction books for $20 each, and then marks up by 25% to
resell. What is the markup in dollars?

Answer:  D) 8

Work Shown:

32/24 = 2x/12

32*12 = 24*2x

384 = 48x

48x = 384

x = 384/48

x = 8

The correct option is Option D: the value of x is 8

The triangles whose corresponding angles are equal and the corresponding sides are in equal proportiion are called similar triangles.

If two triangles are similar

then a₁/a₂=b₁/b₂=c₁/c₂

where a₁, b₁, and c₁ are the sides of one triangle

a₂, b₂, and c₂ are the sides of another triangle

Here it is given that

triangles ΔJLK and ΔRJS are similar.

so by the property of similar triangles,

JR/JL = JS/JK = RS/KL

Given that JR=24

JL=32

JS=12

JK=2x

By using the property

JR/JL = JS/JK

⇒ 24/32 = 12/2x

⇒2x= 12*32/24

⇒2x=16

⇒x=16/2

⇒x=8

Therefore the value of x is 8.

Answer:

r=8

Step-by-step explanation:

45=6r-3

48=6r

r=8

A. (16 - 12)² = 4² = 4 · 4 = 16

B. -|-4| = -4

C. (96 : 8) - 2³ = 12 - 8 = 4

D. 24 - 42 = -(42 - 24) = -18

The simplified form of r^-7 + s^-12 is ----> 1/r^7 + 1/s^12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a function g(x), its derivative, if it exists, is equal to the limit

[tex]g'(x) = \displaystyle\lim_{h\to0}\frac{g(x+h)-g(x)}h[/tex]

The limit is some expression that is itself a function of x. Then the derivative of g(x) at x = 1 is obtained by just plugging x = 1. In other words, find g'(x) - and this can be done with or without taking a limit - then evaluate g' (1).

Alternatively, you can directly find the derivative at a point by computing the limit

[tex]g'(1) = \displaystyle\lim_{h\to0}\frac{g(1+h)-g(1)}h[/tex]

But this is essentially the same as the first method, we're just replacing x with 1.

Yet another way is to compute the limit

[tex]g'(1) = \displaystyle\lim_{x\to1}\frac{g(x)-g(1)}{x-1}[/tex]

but this is really the same limit with h = x - 1.

You do not compute g (1) first, because as you say, that's just a constant, so its derivative is zero. But you're not concerned with the derivative of some number, you care about the derivative of a function that depends on a variable.

The base angles of an isosceles trapezoid are equal; For EFGI to be a parallelogram, the measure of [tex]\angle HGI[/tex] is: 108 degrees

Given that:

[tex]\angle IEF = 36^o[/tex]

IEF and GHI are the base angles of the trapezoid.

So:

[tex]\angle GHI = \angle IEF = 36^o[/tex]

Also:

[tex]\triangle GHI[/tex] is an isosceles triangle.

This means that:

[tex]\angle GHI = \angle HIG = 36^o[/tex] --- base angles of an isosceles triangle

So:

[tex]\angle GHI + \angle HIG + \angle HGI = 180[/tex] --- sum of angles in a triangle

Substitute known values

[tex]36 + 36+ \angle HGI = 180[/tex]

[tex]72 + \angle HGI = 180[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]\angle HGI = 180-72[/tex]

[tex]\angle HGI = 108[/tex]

Answer: A): 15.90 ounces to 16.4 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the standard deviation is 0.25 ounces. The mean of the juice is 16.15 ounces. Additionally, 68% is one standard deviation away from the mean.

With that being said, you would do the following calculations:

[tex]16.15-0.25=15.90\\\\16.15+0.25=16.40[/tex]

This question relates to The Empirical Rule and understanding how it works. A brief summary is that within one standard deviation of the mean, that is where 68% of the data lies. Two standards deviations is 95%. And three standard deviations is 99.5%.

The formula: [tex]u\frac{+}{-} o[/tex]

the mean PLUS OR MINUS the standard deviation.

Answer:

The answer is A. [tex]\frac{3(x-21)}{(x+7)(x-7)}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the difference of this problem, start by simplifying the denominator, which will look like [tex]\frac{3}{x+7}-\frac{42}{(x+7)(x-7)}[/tex]. Next, multiply [tex]\frac{3}{x+7}[/tex] by [tex]\frac{x-7}{x-7}[/tex]  to create a fraction with a common denominator in order to subtract from [tex]\frac{42}{(x+7)(x-7)}[/tex]. The problem will now look like [tex]\frac{3}{x+7}*\frac{x-7}{x-7}-\frac{42}{(x+7)(x-7)}[/tex].  

Then, simplify the terms in the problem by first multiplying [tex]\frac{3}{x+7}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{x-7}{x-7}[/tex], which will look like [tex]\frac{3(x-7)}{(x+7)(x-7)}-\frac{42}{(x+7)(x-7)}[/tex]. The next step is to combine the numerators over the common denominator, which will look like [tex]\frac{3(x-7)-42}{(x+7)(x-7)}[/tex].

Next, simplify the numerator, and to simplify the numerator start by factoring 3 out of [tex]3(x-7)-42[/tex], which will look like [tex]\frac{3(x-7-14)}{(x+7)(x-7)}[/tex]. Then, subtract 14 from -7, which will look like [tex]\frac{3(x-21)}{(x+7)(x-7)}[/tex]. The final answer will be [tex]\frac{3(x-21)}{(x+7)(x-7)}[/tex].

The function written in the rational form is, C. F(x) = (x - 5)/3x

Rational numbers are subsets of real numbers which can be written in the form of p/q, where q ≠ 0. As at q = 0 it is undefined.

Similarly, A rational expression is also written in the form of p/q, where p and q are algebraic expressions and q ≠ 0.

From the given options, F(x) is written in the form p/q,

Where, p = x - 5 and q = 3x.

Therefore, The rational function is, F(x) = (x - 5)/3x, where x ≠ 0.
