Your friend buys a skateboard that is on sale for one third off the original price. Your friend spent $36 than the original price. What was the original price of the skateboard?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

original price of skateboard = $54

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original price of the skateboard be x

selling price = one third off the original price = $36

x - (1/3x) = 36

[tex]\frac{x}{1} - \frac{x}{3} = \frac{3x-x}{3} = \frac{2x}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{2x}{3} = 36\\2x = 108\\x = \frac{108}{2} = 54[/tex]

∴ x = 54

Suppose you had 28 baskets of 6 apples and 5 baskets of 9 apples.

How could you quickly figure out how many baskets of 3 apples you could create?

Answers

Answer:

71 baskets of 3 apples.

Step-by-step explanation:

From each of the 28 baskets of 6 you can get 6/3 = 2 baskets of 3.

From each of the 5 baskets you can get  9/3 = 3 baskets of 3.

Therefore:-

From the 28 baskets you can create 28 * 2 = 56 baskets of 3.

From the  5 baskets of 9 you can get 5 * 3 = 15 baskets of 3.

Total 15 + 56 = 71.

what is Algebra?

A branch of mathematics known as algebra deals with symbols and the mathematical operations performed on them.

Variables are the name given to these symbols because they lack set values. . In order to determine the values, these symbols are also subjected to various addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division arithmetic operations.

Given:

Fourteen subtracted from the product of a number and -3 is 25

let the number be x

product of a number and -3= -3x

and, Fourteen subtracted from the product of a number and -3

= -3x- 14

So, -3x -14 = 25

-3x = 25+14

-3x = 39

x= -13

Hence, the value of x is -13.

Consider circle C with angle ACB measuring 3 pi/4 radians if minor arc AB measures 9 pi inches what is the length of the radius of circle C if necessary round your answer to the nearest inch

Answers

Answer:

r = 12 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the length of the radius of the circle.

This is accessible from using the length of an arc.

Mathematically, the length of an arc can be calculated using the formula;

Theta/360 * 2 * pi * r

Where Theta is the angle subtended at the center and r is the radius of he circle.

According to the question, Theta is 3pi/4 radians or let’s just say 0.75pi . This to degrees will be 135 degrees ( pi = 180 degrees)

Thus we have;

9 pi = 135/360 * 2 * pi * r

divide through by pi

9 = 270r/360

360 * 9 = 270r

r = (360 * 9)/270

r = 12 inches

What is the population density of LA? Explain your work: Los Angeles: population = 4,000,000; Area= 503 sq. miles

Answers

Answer:

The population density is 7592 people per square mile

Step-by-step explanation:

The population density of los Angeles here refers to the number of people present by square miles

Mathematically, to find this population density, what we need to do is to divide the total population that we have by the area of Los angeles

The population here is 4,000,000 while the area is 503 square miles

The population density is thus ;

4,000,000/503 = 7592.29 which is approximately 7592 people per square mile

The system of linear equations 5x+3y=3 and X+y=-1 is graphed below.

What is the solution to the system of equations?
O (4,3)
O 1-3.4)

Answers

Answer:

(3, - 4) is the solution to the system of equations.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Rewrite one of the equations so it eighter starts with y= or it starts with x=

Here the easy way is to write X+y=-1 in the form x=

X= - y - 1

2. Substitute X= - y - 1 in the other equation 5X+3y=3:

5X+3y=3

X= - y - 1

5(- y - 1)+3y=3

-5y -5 +3y = 3

-2y = 3 +5

2y = -8

y = - 4

3. Now substitute this value y = - 4 in X= - y - 1

X= - (y) - 1

y = - 4

X= - (- 4) - 1

X = 4 - 1

X =3

4. So X =3 and y = - 4 gives this coordinate (3, - 4), which is the solution to the system of equations.

4) Gina pays $0.50 each time she plays a carnival game. The game is on a spinner with 12 equal-sized sections, labeled 1 through 12. She wins a prize if the pointer lands on 3, 5, or 7. If Gina spends $4 playing the game, predict the number of prizes she can expect to win.

Answers

Answer: 2 prices

Step-by-step explanation:

Price per play = $0.50

Total amount incurred by Gina in playing =$4

Therefore, total games played :

$4 ÷ $0.5 = 8 games.

Total points on spinner = (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12)

Required for winning = (3, 5, 7)

Probability of winning:

P(WIN) = ( required outcome / Total possible outcome)

P(win) = 3/12 = 1/4

Therefore, the number of prices she can expect to win is (1/4) × number of games (8)

(1/4) × (8) = 2
