Step-by-step explanation:

We can represent each ratio as a fraction, then use the cross products property to find the value of x.

Answers

Answer:

Sales tax on selling price:  $2232.50(0.03) = $66.98

Step-by-step explanation:

List price:  $2350

5% discount:  0.05($2350) = $117.50

Sale (selling) price:  List price less discount:  $2350 - $117.50 = $2232.50

Sales tax on selling price:  $2232.50(0.03) = $66.98

In a Quadrilateral, two of the angles each have a measure of 110°, and the measure of the third angle is 90°. What is the measure of the remaining angle?

Answers

Answer:

50°

Step-by-step explanation:

The total measurement of the sum of the interior angles is 360.

It is given that two of the angles has a measurement of 110. The third angle has a measurement of 90. Let the unknown measurement angle = x. Set the equation:

110 + 110 + 90 + x = 360

Combine like terms:

(110 + 110 + 90) + x = 360

310 + x = 360

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Subtract 310 from both sides:

310 (-310) + x = 360 (-310)

x = 360 - 310

x = 50

50° is the measurement of the remaining angle.


In Exercise 4, find the surface area of the solid
formed by the net.

Answers

Answer:

535.2 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area the solid formed by the net in exercise 4 can be calculated by finding the area of each part that makes up the net.

The net consists of 2 triangles and 3 rectangles.

Each triangle has a base (b) of 8 cm and a height (h) of = √(8² - 4²) (using Pythagorean theorem)

height = 6.9cm

Each rectangle has length (l) of 20cm, and width (w) of 8cm

Therefore, Surface Area (S.A) = area of 3 rectangles + area of 2 triangles

S.A = 3(l*b) + 2(½*b*h)

S.A = 3(20*8) + 2(½*8*6.9)

S.A = 3(160) + (1*8*6.9)

S.A = 480 + 55.2 = 535.2 cm²

The value of e is -1 and f is -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The steps are :

[tex]2e - 3f = 4 - - - (1)[/tex]

[tex]2e - 5f = 8 - - - (2)[/tex]

[tex]2e - 3f - 2e - ( - 5f) = 4 - 8[/tex]

[tex]f = - 4 \div 2[/tex]

[tex]f = - 2[/tex]

To solve this system of equations by addition, our first goal is to cancel

out one of the variables by adding the two equations together.

However, before we add, we need to cancel out a variable.

I would choose to cancel out the e's.

To do this, we need a 2e and a -2e and

here we have a 2e in both equations.

If we multiply the second equation by -1 however,

that will give us the -2e we are looking for.

So we have (-1)(2e - 3f) = (4)(-1).

So rewriting both equations, our first equation stays the same

but our second equation becomes -2e + 3f = -4.

Notice that every term in the second

equation has been multiplied by -1.

2e - 3f = 4

-2e + 5f = -8

Now when we add the equations together,

the e's cancel and we have 2f = -4 so f = -2.

To find e, plug -2 back in for f in the

first equation to get 2e - 3(-2) = 4.

Solving from here, e = -1.

Note that e comes before f in our final answer, (-1, -2).

U = x + 4 and V = 2y^5.

(U - V)^2 = U^2 - 2UV + V^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The number 540 has the following divisors

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, 27, 30, 36, 45, 54, 60, 90, 108, 135, 180, 270, 540

A student says that the function f (x) = –x² – 9 has the x-intercepts (-3,0) and (3,0). Is the student correct? If not, expl.
why. ​

Answers

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

The student is wrong because the function has no solutions.

You cannot factor it because the x² is negative.

If it was x² - 9 instead, you could factor it into (x-3)(x+3) which would get you the x-intercepts (-3,0) and (3,0).

But instead, -x² - 9 cannot be factored at all and has no x-intercepts/solutions.

A researcher obtained M = 27 for a sample of n = 36 scores selected from a population with µ = 30 and σ = 18. This sample mean corresponds to a z-score of z = –1.00.

Answers

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

M = 27, sample of n = 36 scores, µ = 30 and σ = 18.

The z score is used in statistics to determine by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean. If the z score is positive, the raw score is greater than the mean and if the z score is negative the raw score is less than the mean. The z score is given as:

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

Given that M = 27, this means that x = 27. Therefore:

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\for \ a\ sample\ size(n):z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n} }\\\\z=\frac{27-30}{18/\sqrt{36} } =\frac{-3}{3}=-1[/tex]

This sample mean corresponds to a z-score of z = –1.00.

What is the area of this composite figure?

Answers

Answer:

C.) 7.14 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure is made up of a square and a circle. The circle is divided in half and each piece is set on one side of the square. This means that the diameter of the circle is equal to the length of the sides of the square, 2 inches.

The area of the square can be found by multiplying length times the width:

[tex]2*2=4[/tex]

The area of the square is 4 inches, and since we multiplied two lengths, we square the value:

A=4in²

Now find the area of the circle using the formula:

[tex]A=\pi r^2[/tex]

The radius is half of the diameter, so the radius is 1. Insert values and solve:

[tex]A=\pi *1^2\\\\A=\pi *1\\\\A=\pi[/tex]

The area of the circle is equal to π. Add the values together:

[tex]4+\pi =7.14[/tex]

The area of the figure is 7.14 in²

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

Work Shown:

L = (x/360)*2*pi*r

L = (315/360)*2*pi*12

L = 21pi = exact arc length in terms of pi

If you use your calculator's stored version of pi, then L is approximately

L = 21pi

L = 65.9734457253857

Or if you end up using pi = 3.14, then

L = 21*pi

L = 21*3.14

L = 65.94

Fairly close to the other approximation though a bit off because pi = 3.14 is just a rough approximation.
