Jeanette purchased a concert ticket on a web site. The original price of the ticket was $75.

She used a coupon code to receive a 20% discount. The website applied a 10% service fee

to the discounted price. Jeannette's ticket was less than the original price by what percent?

Answers

Answer:

Jeannette's ticket was less than the original pice by 30%

Step-by-step explanation:

original price = $75

percentage discount = 20% of original price = 20% of $75

discounted price = [tex]\frac{20}{100} \times\ 75\ =\ 15[/tex]

discounted price = $15

website service fee = 10% of original price

website service fee = [tex]\frac{10}{100}\times 75 = \$7.5[/tex]

New discounted price = discount price + website service fee

= 15 + 7.5 = $22.5

Next, let us calculate what percentage of the original price that will give the new discount price.

Let the percentage of the original price = x%

x% of 75 = $22.5

[tex]\frac{x}{100} \times\ 75\ = 22.5\\\\\frac{75x}{100} = 22.5\\\\75x = 2250\\\\x = \frac{2250}{75} \\\\x = 30[/tex]

Therefore, Jeannette's ticket was less than the original pice by 30%

April typed a 5 page report in 50 mintues. Each page had 500 words at what rate is April typing

Answers

Answer:

Amy types at a rate of 50 words per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are interested in calculating the rate at which April is typing.

From the question, we can deduce that she typed a 5 page report, with each page having a total of 500 words.

Now, if each page has 500 words, the total number of words in all of the pages will be 5 * 500 = 2,500 words

Now, from here, we can see that 2,500 words were typed in 50 minutes.

The number of words per minute will be ;

Total number of words/Time taken = 2500 words/50 minutes

That will give a value of 50 words per minute

Consider an election with 681 votes a) If there are 5 candidates, what is the smallest number of first-place votes a candidate could win with under the Plurality method?

Answers

Answer:

137 votes

Step-by-step explanation:

considering an election with 681 votes and 5 candidates up for the election

dividing the votes among'st 5 candidates

= 681 / 5 = 136.2  hence the least number of first-place votes needed by a candidate using the plurality method  would be = 137 votes

136.2 + 136.2 + 136.2 + 136.2 + 136.2 = 681 ( dividing the votes equally )

136 + 136 + 136 + 136+136 = 680

hence the remaining vote = 681 - 680 = 1

least first-place vote = 136 + 1 = 137 votes

Quadrilateral ABCD has coordinates A (3, 1), B (4, 4), C (7, 5), D (6, 2). Quadrilateral ABCD is a (4 points)

Answers

Answer:

Quadrilateral ABCD is a SQUARE

Step-by-step explanation:

When we are given coordinates (x1, x2) and (y1 , y2) for a Quadrilateral, we solve for the sides using this formula.

√(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²

A (3, 1), B (4, 4), C (7, 5), D (6, 2)

Side AB = A (3, 1), B (4, 4)

√(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²

= √(4 - 3)² + (4 - 1)²

= √1² + 3²

= √1 + 9

= √10

Side BC = B (4, 4), C (7, 5)

√(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²

= √(7 - 4)² + (5 - 4)²

= √3² + 1²

= √9 + 1

= √10

Side CD = C (7, 5), D (6, 2)

√(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²

= √(6 - 7)² + (2 - 5)²

= √(-1) ² + (-3)²

= √1 + 9

= √10

Side AD = A (3, 1), D (6, 2)

√(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²

= √(6 - 3)² + (2 - 1)²

= √3² + 1²

= √9 + 1

= √10

From the above calculation,

Side AB = √10

Side BC = √10

Side CD = √10

Side AD = √10

Hence, AB = BC = CD = AD

When all the side of a Quadrilateral are the same or equal to each other, it means the Quadrilateral is a square.

Therefore, Quadrilateral ABCD is a SQUARE

2) The x-intercept are (5, 0) and (-1, 0)

The y-intercept is (0, -5)

The vertex is (2, -9)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is;

f(x) = x² - 4·x - 5

The data values are generated as follows;

x,          f(x)

-1,         0

The minimum is found from differentiating the function, f(x), with respect to x and looking for the zeros of the result  as follows;

f'(x) = 2·x -4

f'(x) = 0 = 2·x -4

x = 2

The y-coordinate gives; f(2) = 2² - 4×2 - 5 = -9

Therefore, the symmetry line is a vertical line passing through (2, -9)

The x-intercept is the point at which y = 0, therefore, from f(x) = x² - 4·x - 5, we have;

0 = x² - 4·x - 5 = (x - 5)·(x + 1)  

Therefore, the x-intercept are x = 5 or -1

The x-intercept are (5, 0) and (-1, 0)

The y-intercept occur at the point where the x value = 0, therefore, we have;

The y-intercept occur at y = f(0) = 0² - 4·0 - 5 = -5

The y-intercept is (0, -5)

Re-writing the  equation in vertex form y = a(x - h)² + k gives;

f(x) = x² - 4·x - 5 = 1·(x - 2)² - 9

Therefore, the vertex is (2, -9)

Answer:

Ben wants to get a 94 in math class. His grade will be the average of two test scores. He scored an 89 on the first test. What grade does Ben need to get on his second test to meet his goal?

Answers

Answer:

Ben needs to get a 99% on his second test

Step-by-step explanation:

The average is the sum of both test scores, divided by the total number of test scores (2).

Let x by the grade Ben must receive on his second test.

(89 + x)/2 = 94

Multiply by 2 on both sides

89 + x = 188

Subtract 89 on both sides

x = 99

Check work:

(89 + 99)/2 = 188/2 = 99

Answer: 99

Concept:

Here, we need to know the idea of the average value.

In mathematics, average refers to the sum of a group of values divided by n, where n is the number of values in the group.

Average = Sum of value / number of values

Solve:

Given information

Scoring on first test = 89

Scoring on second test = x

Number of tests = 2

Average = 94

Given expression

Average = Sum of value / number of values

Substitute values into the expression

94 = (89 + x) / 2

Multiply 2 on both sides

94 × 2 = (89 + x) / 2 × 2

188 = 89 + x

Subtract 89 on both sides

188 - 89 = 89 + x - 89

Answers

Answer:

RM3,500

Step-by-step explanation:

Salary=RM375 per week

5% commission per week

If she target a minimum of RM 550.

Let x=minimum Sales

RM550=RM375 + 5% of x

RM550=RM375 + 0.05x

RM550 - RM375=0.05x

RM175=0.05x

Divide both sides by 0.05

RM175/0.05=0.05x/0.05

RM3,500=x

For Azila to earn a minimum of RM550 in a week, her salary will be RM375 plus 5% commission on the sales of RM3,500 value of product.

Check:

5% of RM3,500

=0.05*3,500

=RM175

Plus

While Mary Corens was a student at the University of Tennessee, she borrowed $14,000 in student loans at an annual interest rate of 7%. If Mary repays $1,800 per year, then how long (to the nearest year) will it take her to repay the loan? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer:

The number of years needed to repay the loan is 11.47 years or 11 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

The loan amount, Present value =  $14000

Annual repayment amount (annuity) = $1800

Interest rate = 7% per annum.

Now we have to find the number of years consumed to repay the loan amount. Below is the calculation.

Present value = (Annuity[1-(1+r)^-n] )/ r

14000 = (1800 × [1- (1+ 0.07 )^-n] )/ 0.07

14000 × 0.07 = 1800 × [1- (1+ 0.07 )^-n]

980 = 1800 × [1- (1+ 0.07 )^-n]

0.54 = [1- (1+ 0.07 )^-n]

n = 11.47  or 11  years.

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \frac{7xy}{ {x}^{2} - 4x + 4 } \div \frac{14y}{x^{2} - 4} [/tex]

To simplify , factorize

x² - 4x + 4 and x² - 4

For x² - 4x + 4

Write - 4x as a difference

x² - 2x - 2x + 4

x( x - 2) - 2(x - 2)

(x - 2)(x - 2)

For x² - 4

use the formula

a² - b² = ( a+b)( a - b)

That's

x² - 4 = (x + 2)(x - 2)

So now we have

[tex] \frac{7xy}{(x - 2)(x - 2)} \div \frac{14y}{(x + 2)(x - 2)} [/tex]

Change the division sign to multiplication sign and reverse the second fraction

That's

Simplify

We have

Reduce the expression with x + 2

That's
