When a number is decreased by 2.6%, the result is 83. What is the original number to the nearest tenth?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

85.2

Step-by-step explanation:

we can represent this in an equation where the initial value is going to be and to this we will subtract 2.6% of it

x - x * 2.6/100 = 83

x - 0.026x = 83

0.974x = 83

x = 83 / 0.974

x = 85.2156

we round to the nearest tenth and finally, we get that the result is 85.2

The rectangular top of a small box has dimensions of 140 mm by 230 mm.

How long (in centimeters) would a ribbon need to be to go all the way around the edge of the top of the box?

A.) 740 cm
B.) 74 cm
c.) 37 cm
D.) 7,400 cm

Answers

Answer: B. 74 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Concept:

Here, we need to know the idea of unit conversion and perimeter.

When there are multiple units in a question, then we should convert all units into one through converting factors.

Perimeter is the distance around a two-dimensional figure.

P = 2 (w + l)

1 cm = 10 mm

Solve:

140 mm = 14 cm

230 mm = 23 cm

P = 2 (w + l) ⇒ Given

P = 2 (14 + 23) ⇒ Substitute

P = 2 (37) ⇒ Addition

P = 74 cm ⇒ Simplify through muliplication

The value of cube root of x^10, when x = -2, can be written in simplest form as a^3 times the square root of b, where a = _____ and b = ______.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]a = 2[/tex]

[tex]b = 2^{1/6}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\sqrt[3]{x^{10}} = a^3 * \sqrt b[/tex]

[tex]x = -2[/tex]

Required

Find a and b

We have:

[tex]\sqrt[3]{x^{10}} = a^3 * \sqrt b[/tex]

Substitute -2 for x

[tex]\sqrt[3]{(-2)^{10}} = a^3 * \sqrt b[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt[3]{1024} = a^3 * \sqrt b[/tex]

Expand

[tex]\sqrt[3]{2^9 * 2} = a^3 * \sqrt b[/tex]

Split the exponents

[tex]2^{(9/3)} * 2^{(1/3)} = a^3 * \sqrt b[/tex]

[tex]2^{3} * 2^{1/3} = a^3 * \sqrt b[/tex]

By comparison:

[tex]a^3 = 2^3[/tex]

So;

[tex]a = 2[/tex]

and

[tex]\sqrt b = 2^{1/3}[/tex]

Take square roots of both sides

[tex]b = 2^{1/6}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

x=24

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

BC = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Since ∠ B and ∠ C are congruent the the triangle is isosceles with

AC = AB , that is

3x - 15 = x + 33 ( subtract x from both sides )

2x - 15 = 33 ( add 15 to both sides )

2x = 48 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 24

Then

BC = x = 24

Mr. Matthew was testing the only popularity of us custom-made belts and wallets that are marked differently some items were sold prior to the online launch date

Answers

Complete question is;

Mr. Matthew is testing the online popularity of his custom made belts and wallets that were marketed differently. Some items were sold prior to the online launch date.

The equation below represents the number of belts sold, s, x days after its online launch. S = 3^(x)

The equation below represents the number of wallets sold, s, x days after its online launch. S = 4x + 15

Using graphing technology, complete the statements. After ___ days, the total number of belts sold will be the same as the total number of wallets sold. The number of belts and the number of wallets Mr. Matthew sold after this many days is ___

Answer:

Number of days = 3 days

Total belts and wallets after 3 days = 54

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the number of belts sold, s, x days after its online launch. S = 3^(x)

Also, we are told that the number of wallets sold, s, x days after its online launch. S = 4x + 15

Now, we want to find the Number of days that total number of belts sold will be the same as the total number of wallets sold using graphing technology.

The number of days will simply be the value of x where the two graphs meet.

I have drawn the graph of both equations.

From the attached graph, we can see that the x-value at where the both graph lines meet is approximately 3. I didn't take the negative solution because number of days cannot be negative.

Thus, x = 3

Putting x = 3 in;

S = 3^(x)

S = 3^(3)

S = 27

Similarly, Putting x = 3 in;

S = 4x + 15

We have;

S = 4(3) + 15

S = 12 + 15

S = 27

Thus,total number of belts and wallets sold after 3 days = 27 + 27 = 54

What is graph function?

The graph of a function f exists the set of all points in the plane of the form (x, f(x)). We could also describe the graph of f to be the graph of the equation y = f(x). So, the graph of a function exists in a particular case of the graph of an equation.

A function is defined as a connection between a set of inputs containing one output each. In simple words, a function exists as an association between inputs where each input is connected to exactly one output. Every function includes a domain and codomain or range. A function exists generally represented by f(x) where x is the input.

From the given figure,

Graph 1 exists a function.

Graph 2 exists a function.

Graph 3 doesn't exist as a function.

Graph 4 exists a function.

Graph 5 doesn't exist as a function.

Graph 6 doesn't exist as a function.

What do I need to do to be able to solve this problem?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (x, y, z) = (5, 11, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, you need to understand "row operations". The ones we're concerned with are multiplying a row by a scalar, and adding rows together.

You also need to understand what the solution looks like, and the usual way that is achieved. The solution will have the 3×3 matrix left of the vertical line be a diagonal of 1s (the identity matrix). Then the numbers to the right of the vertical line represent the solution.

__

In the following, we will use the notation [a]+b[c]⇒[d] to mean that row 'a' is added to the product of row 'c' and the scalar 'b' and that sum replaces row [d]. Multiplying a row by a scalar multiplies each element in the row by that scalar.

The first several operations look like this. Notice we have made the upper left 2×2 matrix an identity matrix. Steps will continue to take care of the 3rd column.

  [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&1&1&22\\6&1&8&89\\-6&4&4&38\end{array}\right] \qquad\text{given}\\\\\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&1&1&22\\0&-5&2&-43\\0&5&12&127\end{array}\right]\qquad\text{[2]+[3]$\rightarrow$[3];\ 6[1]+[2]$\rightarrow$[2]}\\\\\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&1&1&22\\0&1&-0.4&8.6\\0&0&14&84\end{array}\right]\qquad\text{[2]+[3]$\rightarrow$[3];\ $-\frac{1}{5}$[2]$\rightarrow$[2]}\\\\\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&0&1.4&13.4\\0&1&-0.4&8.6\\0&0&14&84\end{array}\right]\qquad\text{[1]-[2]$\rightarrow$[1]}[/tex]

Now, we normalize the third column.

  [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&0&1.4&13.4\\0&1&-0.4&8.6\\0&0&1&6\end{array}\right] \qquad\text{$\frac{1}{14}$[3]$\rightarrow$[3]}\\\\\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&0&0&5\\0&1&0&11\\0&0&1&6\end{array}\right] \qquad\text{$-\frac{7}{5}$[3]+1$\rightarrow$[1];\ $\frac{2}{5}$[3]+[2]$\rightarrow$[2]}[/tex]

This is the target of our row operations. It tells us the solution to the system of equations is ...

  (x, y, z) = (5, 11, 6)

_____

A number of online calculators and phone or tablet apps are available for putting a coefficient matrix into this "reduced row-echelon form." Many graphing calculators will do this, too.

In the end, this is not terribly different from ad hoc solution using "elimination" methods. That is precisely what we did when we created the zeros in the first two columns of row 3.

cos A = 7/25

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are given a right triangle, we can use trig functions

cos A = adj side/ hypotenuse

cos A = 7/25

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\sf cos\ A =\frac{7}{25}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find out the value of cos A using the given triangle . Here we can see that the sides of the triangle are 7 , 25 and 24 .

We know that the ratio of sine is base to hypontenuse .

[tex]\sf\longrightarrow cos\theta =\dfrac{ base}{hypontenuse}[/tex]

Here we can see that the side along the angle A is 7 , therefore the base of the triangle is 7. And the side opposite to 90° angle is 25 . So it's the hypontenuse . On using the ratio of sine ,

[tex]\sf\longrightarrow cos \ A =\dfrac{ b}{h}=\dfrac{AB}{AC}[/tex]

Substitute the respective values ,

[tex]\sf\longrightarrow \boxed{\blue{\sf cos \ A =\dfrac{7}{25}}}[/tex]

Hence the required answer is 7/25.

Independent means that one has no effect on the other. Exclusive means one cannot happen alongside the other. In simpler terms, independent events can be thought of as the chance it'll rain and how many people are flossing their teeth in the morning. Both happen, but neither one impacts the other.

Exclusive, on the other hand, means only one can happen. Lets say at nine in the evening your favorite show is on. However, you have an early morning and should be asleep by nine. You cannot both be asleep and watching your favorite show, and so these events are exclusive.
