The difference btwn increasing a number by 20% and decreasing the same number by15% is 14 what is the number?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The number is:

[tex]n = 40[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'n' be the number

Increasing a number by 20% = (n + n×20/100)Decreasing a number by 14% = (n - n×15/100)

As the difference between increasing a number by 20% and decreasing the same number by15% is 14.

Thus, the expression becomes

[tex]\left(n\:+\:\frac{n}{5}\right)\:-\:\left(n\:-\:\frac{3n}{20}\right)\:=\:14[/tex]

[tex]n+\frac{n}{5}-n+\frac{3n}{20}=14[/tex]

[tex]\frac{7n}{20}=14[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 20

[tex]\frac{7n}{20}\cdot \:20=14\cdot \:20[/tex]

[tex]7n=280[/tex]

Divide both sides by 7

[tex]\frac{7n}{7}=\frac{280}{7}[/tex]

[tex]n=40[/tex]

Thus the number is:

[tex]n = 40[/tex]

Determine whether x^y•x^z=z^18
is sometimes, always, or never true. Explain.​

Answers

Answer:

  sometimes true

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation reduces to ...

  x^y·x^z = z^18

  x^(y+z) = z^18

This is not true in general, but is true for specific cases of x, y, and z. For example,

  4^(7+2) = 2^18 . . . . (x, y, z) = (4, 7, 2)

  4^(7+0) ≠ 0^18 . . . . (x, y, z) = (4, 7, 0)

The equation is sometimes true.

A group of 5 friends want to buy a flat-screen TV for $210. The tax comes to $15. Write and solve a multiplication equation to find how much money each person should pay if each person pays the same amount.

Answers

Answer:

$45

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to create a multiplication equation, we would need to use a single variable that represents the amount that each friend will pay. This can be represented by the variable x. We multiply this variable by the number of friends which should equal the total of the TV with the tax included. Like so...

$210 + $15 = 5x

Now that we have the equation we can go ahead and solve it by adding the total and the tax, and then dividing both sides by 5 in order to isolate x.

$210 + $15 = 5x

$225 = 5x

$45 = x

Finally, we can see that each friend will pay the same amount which is $45

A deep sea diver is at 45 feet below sea level. A helicopter is at 100 feet above sea level. What is the distance between the helicopter and deep sea diver?

Answers

Answer:

D = 55 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let below sea level is negative direction and above sea level is positive direction.

A deep sea diver is at 45 feet below sea level = -45 feet

A helicopter is at 100 feet above sea level = +100 feet

We need to find the distance between the helicopter and deep sea diver. It can be calculated by simply adding the above data as follows:

D = -45 +100

= 55 feet

Hence, the distance between the helicopter and deep sea diver is 55 feet.

Escribe dos numeros cuyo maximo comun divisor sea 210 y que esten entre 10000 y 11000

Answers

Let [tex]p[/tex] and [tex]q[/tex] be two numbers, such that

[tex]10000 < 210p < 11000, \quad 10000 < 210q < 11000[/tex]

If [tex]p[/tex] and [tex]q[/tex] have no common factors, the greatest common factor between [tex]210p[/tex] and [tex]210 q[/tex] is obviously 210.

If we divide the inequalities above by 210, we see that

[tex]\dfrac{10000}{210} < p < \dfrac{11000}{210}, \quad \dfrac{10000}{210}< q< \dfrac{11000}{210}[/tex]

And rounding to the nearest integer, we deduce that [tex]p[/tex] and [tex]q[/tex] must be between 48 and 52.

We may pick [tex]p=49[/tex] and [tex]q=50[/tex], because they have no common factors. So, our numbers would be

Jack bought a new car. The price of the car was $18,936. He paid $3,000 upfront and got a loan for the remaining balance. If he paid the same amount each month for 4 years (at which point the car is paid off), how much was his monthly payment?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Price of car = $18,936

Upfront paid = $3000

Time taken to pay remaining balance = 4 years

Amount paid per month if the same amount is paid per month

Remaining balance :

($18,936 - $3000) = $15,936

Number of months in 4 years = (12 * 4). = 48 months

Amount paid per month :

$15,936 / 48

= $332

We are given the equation [tex]-2 \frac{1}{4} = 2w[/tex]. To solve this equation, we can divide both sides by 2 to get that [tex]w = -2\frac{1}{4} \div 2 = -\frac{9}{8}[/tex].

Answer:

w = - [tex]\frac{9}{8}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 2 [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] = 2w ( change the mixed number to an improper fraction )

- [tex]\frac{9}{4}[/tex] = 2w ( multiply both sides by 4 to clear the fraction )

- 9 = 8w ( divide both sides by 8 )

- [tex]\frac{9}{8}[/tex] = w

Answer:

  p(x) = x^4 -5x^3 +20x -16

Step-by-step explanation:

If 'a' is a zero of the polynomial, then (x -a) will be a factor. For the given zeros, the simplest polynomial will be the product of the corresponding factors:

  p(x) = (x -2)(x +2)(x -4)(x -1) . . . . . . note that x -(-2) = x +2 (factored form)

__

Multiplying these out gives the result in standard form.

The product of the first two factors is a "special product" recognizable as the difference of two squares.

  (x -2)(x +2) = x^2 -2^2 = x^2 -4

The product of the last two factors can be found in the usual way. The distributive property applies.

  (x -4)(x -1) = x(x -1) -4(x -1)

  = x^2 -x -4x +4 = x^2 -5x +4

Then the full polynomial is the product of these partial products:

  p(x) = (x^2 -4)(x^2 -5x +4)

  = x^2(x^2 -5x +4) -4(x^2 -5x +4)

  = x^4 -5x^3 +4x^2 -4x^2 +20x -16

  p(x) = x^4 -5x^3 +20x -16 . . . . . . . . standard form

Step-by-step explanation:

If a snowman has 3 old felt hats and 4 scarves from which to choose, how many different hat/scarf outfits can he wear?

We solve this question using the fundamental counting principle.

This states that:

When we have two events, a and bthe number of ways both events can happen is a × b

From the above question, our two events is

a = 3 old felt hats

b = 4 scarves

Hence, the different hat/scarf outfits can he wear is given as

Step-by-step explanation:

Just did the quiz. First one is "a + b"

Second spot put "a+b/2"

Third put "c/2"

Finally put "CE" and then "BE"

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral , In which opposite sided are equal and parallel to each other.

The coordinate of point C are (a + b , c)

The coordinates of the midpoint of diagonal BD are [tex](\frac{a+b}{2},\frac{c}{2} )[/tex]

AC and BD intersect at point E with coordinates [tex](\frac{a+b}{2},\frac{c}{2} )[/tex]

By the definition of midpoint, AE ≅ CE  and BE ≅ DE.

Therefore, diagonals AC and BD bisect each other.

Properties of Parallelogram shown below,

Opposites sides of a parallelogram are equal and parallel to each other. Opposite angles are equal.Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.    Each diagonal divides the parallelogram into two congruent triangles.

Since, Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other. Therefore, point E is the mid point of both diagonal AC and BD.

Let us consider , coordinate of point C are (x, y)

By using mid point formula,

                Coordinate of point E =  [tex](\frac{x}{2},\frac{y}{2} )[/tex]

                        [tex](\frac{a+b}{2},\frac{c}{2} )=(\frac{x}{2},\frac{y}{2} )[/tex]

  So,     [tex]C(x,y)=(a+b,c)[/tex]

E is the point at which both diagonal bisect to each other. Therefore, E is the mid point of both diagonal AC and BD.

So, coordinate of point E are [tex](\frac{a+b}{2},\frac{c}{2} )[/tex]

Thus, By the definition of midpoint, AE ≅ CE  and BE ≅ DE.

Therefore, diagonals AC and BD bisect each other.

: A coffee shop spends $408 for an order of 17 cases of paper cups. If the coffee shop adds 5 more cases of paper cups to the order, how much will the total cost be

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

A case of paper cups costs $408 / 17 = $24.

5 more cases => 22 cases of paper cups total.

Hence the total cost will be 22 * $24 = $528.

Answer:

$528

Step-by-step explanation:

We find the unit rate of the cost per case.

$408 / 17 cases = $24/case

Each case costs $24.

Adding 5 cases to 17 cases, the order will be for 22 cases.

22 cases * $24/case = $528

Answer: $528

The answer is 41.3%

The percentage of coach passengers who did not check their bags will be 43.82 %.

What is percentage?

It's the ratio of two integers stated as a fraction of a hundred parts. It is a metric for comparing two sets of data, and it is expressed as a percentage using the percent symbol.

It is given that the total number of passengers is, 162 of which 71 bags didn't check while 91 bags got checked.

We have to find the percentage of coach passengers who did not check their bags.

It is found by dividing the total number of passenger bags not checked by the total number of passengers.

=71 / 162 × 100

=43.82 %

Thus, the percentage of coach passengers who did not check their bags will be 43.82 %.
