Answer:
It is mainly used while doing scientific notation. If two numbers differ by one order of magnitude, one is about ten times larger than the other. If they differ by two orders of magnitude, they differ by a factor of about 100.A quarter is 0.25 dollars so the ratio between 1 dollar and a quarter is 1/0.25(it means the dollar and the quarter which is 0.25 dollars) and that equals =4

The sum of the first eight terms in a Geometric Series is 19680 and the sum of the first four terms is 240. A) Find the first term. B) Find the common ratio. C) Justify your answers by showing steps that demonstrates your answers generate S8=19680 and S4=240.
Answer:
First Term = 6
Common Ratio = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the Question,
Given, The sum of the first eight terms in a Geometric Series is 19680 and the sum of the first four terms is 240 .Thus, [tex]S_{8} = 19680[/tex] & [tex]S_{4} = 240[/tex] .
The Sum of n-term of Geometric Mean is [tex]S_{n} = \frac{a(r^{n-1)} }{r-1}[/tex] Where, r>1 , a=First term of G.P & r=common Ratio .Now, on solving [tex]\frac{S_{8} }{S_{4} }[/tex] we get,
[tex]\frac{19680}{240} = \frac{\frac{a(r^{8-1)} }{r-1}}{\frac{a(r^{4-1)} }{r-1}}[/tex]
[tex]82 = \frac{r^{8}-1 }{r^{4}-1 }[/tex]
[tex]82r^{4}-82 = r^{8}-1\\r^{8}-82r^{4}+81 = 0\\r^{8}-81r^{4}-r^{4}+81 = 0\\(r^{4}-81)( r^{4}-1) =0[/tex](r=1 is not possible so neglect [tex]( r^{4}-1) =0[/tex] )
So, r=3 Now Put this value in [tex]S_{4} = {\frac{a(r^{4-1)} }{r-1}}[/tex] We get a=6 .
The Marked price of a jacket at a dealer's shop is 2400. The dealer allows a discount of 15% to the retailer. As the company's policies the marked price of the retailer should be the same as the dealer's marked price. What SP should the retailer fix for the jacket? What would its final price be if 10% VAT is imposed? What would be the actual gain of retailer?
Ans
2280,2502,240
Answer:
2400
2640
360
Step-by-step explanation:
I am not sure the description is totally clear.
my assumptions are (based on my interpretations of the text) :
the retailer buys from the dealer with 15% discount.
but the retailer has to sell the jacket for the same price as the dealer.
so, both mark the sale price as 2400.
if the customer buys from the retailer, the retailer makes 15% profit (the discount he got from the dealer).
15% = 2400 × 15/100 = 24 × 15 = 360
the retailer makes this profit no matter what other fees or taxes are added.
if the customer buys from the dealer, the dealer makes these 15% and some more (we don't know how much) profit.
now, the final price is to include also 10% VAT
100% = 2400
1% = 2400 / 100 = 24
10% = 24 × 10 = 240
so,
final price = SP + VAT = 2400 + 240 = 2640

Simplify the expression....
Answer:
−3x^2+2x /x−2
Step-by-step explanation:
4x−9x^3/ 3x^2−4x−4
= −9x^3+4x /3x^2−4x−4
= x(−3x+2)(3x+2) /(3x+2)(x−2)
= −3x^2+2x /x−2
In the diagram below of triangle PQS, S is the midpoint of PR and T is the midpoint of QR. If ST = 5x - 22, and PQ = 3x + 19, what is the measurement of PQ?
Answer:
PQ = 46
Step-by-step explanation:
The midsegment ST is half the length of the third side PQ , that is
ST = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] PQ , so
5x - 22 = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] (3x + 19) ← multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction
10x - 44 = 3x + 19 ( subtract 3x from both sides )
7x - 44 = 19 ( add 44 to both sides )
7x = 63 ( divide both sides by 7 )
x = 9
Then
PQ = 3x + 19 = 3(9) + 19 = 27 + 19 = 46

Please help me!! Perimeter: about ______ ft squared
Area: about ________ ft squared
Answer:
55.1 ft ; 236.7 ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
radius = 7.5 ft
Perimeter of the semicircles = 2 * radius * pi = 2 * 7.5 * pi = 47,12389 ft
Perimeter of the rectangle = 4 * 2 = 8 ft
Total perimeter = 55,12389 ft
Area of the semicircles = radius^2 * pi = 7.5^2 * pi = 176,714587 ft^2
Area of the rectangle = 4 * 15 = 60 ft^2
Total area = 236,714587 ft^2

What is the image point of (4, 6) after the
transformation T5,2 O ry=-x?
Answer:
The image point is (-1,-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, we have to reflect the given point over the line y = -x after which we perform the translation using the coordinate (5,2)
Mathematically;
If we reflect a point (x,y) over the line y = -x
we have the coordinate change to (-y,-x)
so, (4,6) becomes (-6,-4)
Then for the translation, we add 5 to the new x-axis coordinate, then add 2 to the new y-axis coordinate
we have this as;
(-6 + 5, 2-4) = (-1,-2)
4.2 To buy a new car is not a very good investment. In the first year the car will
decrease in value by 25%.
4.2.1
If the car costs R200 000, what will it be worth after 1 year?
Given:
In the first year, the car will decrease in value by 25%.
The cost of a car is Rs. 200,000.
To find:
The worth of the car after 1 year.
Solution:
The cost of a car is Rs. 200,000 and in the first year the car will decrease in value by 25%. So, the worth of the car after 1 year is:
[tex]Worth=200000-\dfrac{25}{100}\times 200000[/tex]
[tex]Worth=200000-\dfrac{1}{4}\times 200000[/tex]
[tex]Worth=200000-50000[/tex]
[tex]Worth=150000[/tex]
Therefore, the worth of the car after 1 year is Rs. 150,000.
9 What is the volume of the cone below? * 267.95 in3 33.49 in3 133.97 in3
Answer:
Volume of cone = 33.49 inch³
Step-by-step explanation:
Missing information;
Height of cone = 8 inch
Diameter of cone = 4 inch
Find:
Volume of cone
Computation:
Radius of cone = Diameter of cone / 2
Radius of cone = 4 / 2
Radius of cone = 2 inch
Volume of cone = [1/3][πr²h]
Volume of cone = [1/3][(3.14)(2)²8]
Volume of cone = [1/3][(3.14)(4)8]
Volume of cone = [1/3][(3.14)(32)]
Volume of cone = [1/3][100.48]
Volume of cone = 33.49 inch³
D and E are points on sides AB and AC respectively of triangle ABC such that DE || BC. If AD = x-1, DB = x – 3, AE = x + 3 and EC = x , the value of x is:
9514 1404 393
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangles are similar, so corresponding sides are proportional.
AE/AD = EC/DB
(x+3)/(x -1) = x/(x -3)
x^2 -9 = x^2 -x . . . . . . . cross multiply
x = 9 . . . . . . . . . . . add x+9-x^2 to both sides
