Today only, a suit is being sold at a 26% discount. The sale price is $259.
What was the price yesterday?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$350

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Set up the equation. The sale price of $259 is 74% of the original price.

[tex]\frac{74}{100}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{259}{x}[/tex]

2. Cross multiply

74x = 25900

3. Solve

x = 350

If is an angle bisector of ∠QOR and ∠QOP = 71°, then find the angle measure of ∠QOR. Question 8 options: A) 71° B) 142° C) 35.5° D) 35°

Answers

Answer:  B. 142°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: OP is an angle bisector of ∠QOR and ∠QOP = 71°.

We know that an angle bisector divides an angle into two equal parts.

So, if OP is an angle bisector of ∠QOR and ∠QOP = 71°.

Then, the angle measure of ∠QOR = Twice of ∠QOP

⇒ Angle measure of ∠QOR = 2 (71°)

⇒ Angle measure of ∠QOR = 142°

Hence, correct option is B. 142°.

Answer:

The two numbers are 12 and -29

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y be the two numbers

x+y = -17

x - y = 41

Add the two equations together

x+y = -17

x - y = 41

----------------

2x = 24

Divide by 2

x = 12

Now find y

x+y = -17

12 +y = -17

Subtract 12 from each side

y = -17-12

y = -29

Which, if any, pair of sides are parallel? AB II DC and AD II BC Cannot be determined AB II DC only AD II BC only

Listed below are systolic blood pressure measurements​ (mm Hg) taken from the right and left arms of the same woman. Assume that the paired sample data is a simple random sample and that the differences have a distribution that is approximately normal. Use a 0.05 significance level to test for a difference between the measurements from the two arms. What can be​ concluded?

136 179
129 190
137 148
139 138

Data was entered in SPSS using the paired t-test approach!!


a. In this​ example, μd is the mean value of the differences d for the population of all pairs of​ data, where each individual difference d is defined as the measurement from the right arm minus the measurement from the left arm. What are the null and alternative hypotheses for the hypothesis​ test?

b.) Identify the test statistic.

c.) Identify the​ P-value.

d.) What is the conclusion based on the hypothesis​ test?

Answers

Answer:

There is a significant difference in the systolic blood pressure measurements between the two arms.

Step-by-step explanation:

The dependent t-test (also known as the paired t-test or paired samples t-test) compares the two means associated groups to conclude if there is a statistically significant difference amid these two means.

In this case a paired t-test is used to determine whether there is a difference in the systolic blood pressure measurements between the two arms.

The SPSS output is attached below.

(a)

The hypothesis for the test can be defined as follows:

H₀: There is no difference in the systolic blood pressure measurements between the two arms, i.e. d = 0.

Hₐ: There is a significant difference in the systolic blood pressure measurements between the two arms, i.e. d ≠ 0.

(b)

Consider the SPSS output.

The test statistic value is t = 0.871.

(c)

Consider the SPSS output.

The p-value of the test is:

p-value = 0.433.

(d)

The significance level of the test is, α = 0.05.

Decision rule:

If the p-value of the test is less than the significance level then the null hypothesis will be rejected and vice-versa.

p-value = 0.433 > α = 0.05

The null hypothesis will not be rejected at 5% level of significance.

Conclusion:

Thus, it can be concluded that there is a significant difference in the systolic blood pressure measurements between the two arms.

Perimeter =68 Length (L) is 4 less than twice the width (W)

Answers

Answer:

Length = 21.3333333333;   Width: 12.6666666667

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 68

Perimeter of a rectangle:

2 (L +W)

Length (L) = 2W - 4

Width = W

2 ( 2W -4 +W) = 68

=> 2 (3W - 4) = 68

=> 6w -8 = 68

=> 6w = 76

=> w = 12.6666666667

Length = (12.6666666667 X 2) - 4

=> 21.3333333333

For the following polynomial, find P(a), P(-x) and P(x + h).

P(x) = 7x-6

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, please consider the following.

P(a) = 7 * a - 6

P(-x)= 7 *(-x) - 6 = -7x - 6

P(x+h) = 7 * (x+h) - 6 = 7x + 7h - 6

Hope this helps.

Thank you.

The values of the polynomial for the given expressions are:

P(a) = 7a - 6

P(-x) = -7x - 6

P(x + h) = 7x + 7h - 6

To find P(a), P(-x), and P(x + h) for the given polynomial P(x) = 7x - 6, we need to substitute the respective values of x into the polynomial expression.

1. P(a):

P(a) = 7a - 6

2. P(-x):

P(-x) = 7(-x) - 6

P(-x) = -7x - 6

3. P(x + h):

P(x + h) = 7(x + h) - 6

P(x + h) = 7x + 7h - 6

The system of equations you want to be solved is not given. I would however give an example with which the method of elimination will be shown, and can be used in solving problems of the nature.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the system of equations:

x + y = 7 ................................(1)

2x - y = 8 ..............................(2)

To eliminate x:

First multiply (1) by 2 to have

2x + 2y = 14 ...........................(3)

Next, subtract (2) from (3) to have

3y = 6

y = 6/3 = 2

To eliminate y:

Add (1) and (2) to have

3x = 15

x = 15/3 = 5

Therefore, (x, y) = (5, 2).

Step-by-step explanation:

A differential of length in terms of t will be ...

where ...

  x'(t) = 4cos(4t)

  y'(t) = 7cos(7t)

The length of c(t) will be the integral of this differential on the interval [0, 2π].

Dividing that interval into 10 equal pieces means each one has a width of (2π)/10 = π/5. The midpoint of pieces numbered 1 to 10 will be ...

  (π/5)(n -1/2), so the area of the piece will be ...

Find the doubling time of an investment earning 8% interest if interest is compounded continuously. The doubling time of an investment earning 8% interest if interest is compounded continuously is ____ years.

Answers

Answer:

8.66 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Interest rate = 8%

Using the exponential growth function:

A = Ao * e^(rt)

Where A = final amount

Ao = Initial amount

r = growth rate

t = time

Here we are to calculate the time it takes an investment earning 8% interest to double;

rate (r) = 8% = 0.08

2A = A * e^(rt)

Divide both sides by A

2 = e^(rt)

2 = e^(0.08 * t)

2 = e^(0.08t)

In(2) = 0.08t

0.6931471 = 0.08t

Divide both sides by 0.08

0.6931471 / 0.08 = 0.08t / 0.08

8.6643397 = t

t = 8.66 years

Answer:

symbolically, the answer would be t= ln(2)/(.08)

Step-by-step explanation:

start by writing out your variables:

rate= .08

*dont forget the investment doubles too, thats where 2P is in the bottom equation

equation should look like:

[tex]2P=Pe^{.08t}[/tex]

then you solve, so divide P on the right and left:

[tex]\frac{2p}{p} = \frac{Pe^{.08t}}{p}[/tex]

now it looks like: [tex]2=e^{.08t}[/tex]

you can take the natural log (ln) of 2 to get the exponent by itself .08t

ln(2)=.08t

then divide .08 to get t by itself

[tex]\frac{ln(2)}{.08} =\frac{.08t}{.08}[/tex]

so symbolically, your equation should be:

[tex]t=\frac{ln(2)}{.08}[/tex]

to get t as your answer you can plug this equation into your calculator to get:

t=8.66 years so approximently 8 years
