A credit card company charges a late fee of 10% on all late payments. last month, jamal was charged a late fee. the total amount paid, including the late fee, was $275. what was the original amount on the credit card before the late fee?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

{x  = -1 + √13  ,  x  = -1 - √13}

Step-by-step explanation:

Completing the square:

f(x) = x² + 2x - 12

     = x² + 2x + 1 - 1 - 12

     = (x² + 2x + 1) - 1 - 12

     = (x + 1)² - 13

Solving:

f(x) = 0

⇔ (x + 1)² - 13 = 0

⇔ (x + 1)² = 13

⇔ x + 1 = √13  or  x + 1 = -√13

⇔ x  = -1 + √13  or  x  = -1 - √13

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We will assume that the first two columns are the numbers sold for Plain Wrapping and Decorative Wrapping.  The third colum does not equal the sum of the first two, so we'll assume it is the total paid for both options.  Let set the price of Plain Wrapping to x and the Decorative Wrapping to y.  The number of gift wrappings times the cost per warpping is the product of x or y timers the number wrapped as shown in columns 1 and 2.

Take the first row and set it as an equation:

10x+9y = 47   [10 Plain Wraps and 9 Decorative Wraps bring a total of $47]

Do the same for the second and third rows:

25x + 12y = 86, and

16x +12y =  68

===========

We can take any equation and rearrange it to isolate one of the 2 variables, x or y.  I'll pick 10x = 47-9y and isolate x:

10x = 47-9y

x = (47-9y)/10

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

Now use this definition of x in another equation.  I'll use 25x + 12y = 86.

25x + 12y = 86

25(47-9y)/10 + 12y = 86     [since x = (47-9y)/10 from above]

117.5 - 22.5y + 12y = 86

-10.5y = -31.5

y = 3                                     [the price for decorative wrapping is $3]

If y = 3, then we can use this in any of the equations to find x:

x = (47-9y)/10

x = (47-9(3))/10     [Use y = 3]

x = (47-27)/10

x = 2                              [The price for plain wrapping is $3]

======================

Check to see if these values will expalin the total value of the three rows of numbers:

CHECK:

______UNITS____         $2 each          $3 each

Parallel cousins are found in the iroquois system of kinship and are defined as bifurcate merging.

Parallel cousins, or the offspring of one's mother's or father's brothers or sisters, were frequently referred to and regarded in the same way as one's siblings. Contrarily, cross-cousins, or the offspring of one's mother's brothers or father's sisters, were frequently regarded as the best source of children.

Bifurcate merging is the underlying idea of the Iroquois system. The ego divides his family into those on his mother's side and those on his father's side (bifurcation) and combines his father with his brother (A) and his mother with her sister (B) .

The probability of having, at most, 9 girls, is 0.9515

The probability that a random baby is a girl is:

p = 0.5

And the probability that a random baby is a boy is:

q = 0.5

Then the probability that, at most, 9 out of 11 babys are girls, is given by:

1 - p(10) - p(11)

Where P(10) is the probability that 10 of the babies are girls and p(11) is the probability that the 11 babies are girls.

p(10) = C(11, 10)*(0.5)^10*(0.5)^1 = C(11, 9)*(0.5)^11

Where C(11, 10) is the combinations of 10 elements that we can make with a set of 11 elements, such that:

C(11, 10)=  11!/(11 - 10)!*10! = 11

Replacing that, we get:

P = 11*(0.5)^11 = 0.0054

p(11) = C(11, 11)*0.5^11 = 1*0.5^11 = 0.0005

Then the probability is:

P = 1 - 0.0054 - 0.0005 = 0.9515

All the relevant transformations are as shown in the explanations below.

We are given the original function as y = x and told the transformation is as follows;

1) y = x + 5; This means that the function was shifted 5 units to the left.

2) y = ³/₈x; This means that the function was vertically stretched by a scale factor of  ³/₈.

3) y = -x - 2 or y = -(x + 2); This means that the function was first shifted by 2 units to the left before being reflected over the x-axis.

4) y = 6x + 1; This means that the function was stretched by a factor of 6 and then shifted 1  unit to the left.

5) y = x - 11; This means that the function was shifted 11 units to the right.

6) y = 8x; This means that the function was vertically stretched by a scale factor of  8.

The equation which can be used to find the number of quarters and nickels is; n + q = 84, 0.05n + 0.25q = 17.80.

let

n + q = 84

0.05n + 0.25q = 17.80

From equation (1)

n = 84 - q

Substitute into (2)

0.05n + 0.25q = 17.80

0.05(84 - q) + 0.25q = 17.80

4.2 - 0.05q + 0.25q = 17.80

- 0.05q + 0.25q = 17.80 - 4.2

0.20q = 13.60

q = 13.60 / 0.20

q = 68

Substitute q = 68 into

The critical points of a function are the values of x for which:

In this problem, the function is:

[tex]f(x) = 3x^3 - 16x + 2[/tex]

The derivative is:

[tex]f^{\prime}{x} = 6x^2 - 16[/tex]

The critical points are given as follows:

[tex]6x^2 - 16 = 0[/tex]

[tex]x^2 = \frac{16}{6}[/tex]

[tex]x = \pm \sqrt{\frac{16}{6}}[/tex]

Positive, hence increasing.

For -1.63 < x < 1.63, one example of the derivative is:

Shift the graph right 3 which exists by moving it right, so by adjusting the x values indicating use f(x-3), to obtain this subtract the value from x when you move right, and add the value to x when you move left.
