Five sisters bought a present for their mother. They received a 10% discount on the original price of the gift. After the discount was taken, each sister paid $5.40. What was the original price of the gift?

I need an answer soon! Pleasle

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$30 is the original price.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original price of the gift.  The sisters got a 10% discount, so the price paid by them is 0.90x.

The five sisters each paid $5.40, so the total they paid was:

5*($5.40) = $27.

This is equal to the 0.90x:  

0.90x = $27

x = $27/0.90

x = $30

can someone help me?

Answers

Answer:

think of each T in the original equation as an empty box, like this:

P(   ) = 2(   )² + (   ) - 7

when it says p(some number), it means replace all Ts in the equation with that number.

P( 0 ) = 2( 0 )² + ( 0 ) - 7 = 0 + 0 - 7 = -7

do the same for the rest <:)

for the second part, it's the same concept: every T is replaced with what's inside the parentheses.

so P( -t ) = 2( -t )² + ( -t ) - 7 = 2t² - t - 7

and so on and so forth.

What is the measure of DBC?


41°
49°

Answers

Answer:

Option C: 41

Step-by-step explanation:

<ABD+<CBD=90

<ABD=8x+1

<CBD=6x+5

(8x+1)+(6x+5)=90

Combine like terms

(8x+6x)+(1+5)=90

14x+6=90

14x=90-6

14x=84

divide both sides by 14

x=6

Now we plug that value into <DBC = 6x+5

6(6)+5=

36+5

41

Let's take this problem step by step:

∠ABC is 90 degrees

 ⇒ made up of two angles ⇒ ∠ABD and ∠DBC

     ⇒ in mathematical equation form:

            [tex]ABD + DBC= ABC[/tex]

Since ∠ABD = 8x + 1 and ∠DBC = 6x+5

    [tex]8x + 1+6x + 5=90\\14x+6=90\\14x=84\\x=6[/tex]

Let's plug it into ∠DBC = 6x+5

  ∠DBC = 6x+5 = 6(6)+5=41

Answer: ∠DBC = 41

Hope that helps!

A parallelogram means the sides are parallel, so PQM would have the same angle as MNP since they are opposite, just like NPQ and QMN.

In a Parallelogram, the Opposite Angles are Equal. Therefore, ∠PQM = ∠MNP, which is equal to 140°.

Suppose a simple random sample of size n = 36 is obtained from a population that is skewed right with μ = 75 and o = 24. What is P x > 80 ? Suppose a simple random sample of size n = 36 is obtained from a population that is skewed right with μ = 75 and o = 24. What is P x > 80 ?​

Answers

Using the normal distribution, it is found that the probability that the sample mean is above 80 is of 0.1056 = 10.56%.

Normal Probability Distribution

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean. Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.By the Central Limit Theorem, the sampling distribution of sample means of size n has standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

The parameters are given as follows:

[tex]\mu = 75, \sigma = 24, n = 36, s = \frac{24}{\sqrt{36}} = 4[/tex].

The probability that the sample mean is above 80 is one subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 80, hence:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{80 - 75}{4}[/tex]

Z = 1.25

Z = 1.25 has a p-value of 0.8944.

1 - 0.8944 = 0.1056.

0.1056 = 10.56% probability that the sample mean is greater than 80.

Answers

Answer:

A) There are two complex solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

To know how many solutions a quadratic equation has, calculate the discriminant of the equation.

discriminant = b² - 4ac              

    where a = coefficient of x²

                b = coefficient of x

                c = constant of equation

if b² - 4ac > 0 , then equation has 2 real roots

if b² - 4ac = 0 , then equation has 1 real, repeated root

if b² - 4ac < 0 , then equation has 2 complex roots

In this case, discriminant = 9² - 4(-2)(-12)

                                          = -15

As -15 < 0, equation has 2 complex roots.

       

The roof of a house rises 9 ft over a run of 12 ft.
Determine the height of a vertical brace placed
8 ft from the low end of the roof.

Answers

The height of a vertical brace placed 8 ft from the low end of the roof is 6 feet.

What is an equation?

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more variables and numbers.

Slope of roof = ratio of rise to run = rise / run = 9/12 = 3/4

If the brace is placed 8 ft from the low end of the roof, hence:

height of brace = slope * 8 = 3/4 * 8 = 6 ft

How is the answer 1? Please tell me why it is 1 and how to do the operation correctly.

Answers

Answer: Answer below.

Step-by-step explanation: If x is pi, and y is 1/pi, then multiplying x by y is 1; yes. So, for y, 1 is being divided by pi. The opposite of division is multiplication. If you multiply 1/pi by pi, the pi in the denominator cancels. Just how if it is 5x = 10, dividing by 5 cancels it on the left side, and gets you x = 2.

This is general for everything. If you multiply 2 by 1/2, you get 1. This is because dividing is also like multiplying by its reciprocal. 1/2's reciprocal is 2/1, and multiplying leaves you with 1. Go and use a calculator, it's correct. Actually, any problem a/b × b/a = 1.

Answers

Answer: $8.4, $148.4

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Cost of Vacuum Cleaner = $140
Sales Tax Rate = 6%

Sales Tax = 6% of $140
= 6/100 * 140
= 6/10 * 14
= 84/10
= 8.4
Therefore, Sales Tax = $8.4

Total Cost with Sales Tax = Cost of Vacuum Cleaner + Sales Tax
= 140 + 8.4

a) the equation should be:
7(n + 5) = 91 since you first add 5 to n and then multiply it by 7. The answer is 91 so that is on the other side of the equal sign

b) we can solve our equation to find for n, the number jim thought of

7(n + 5) = 91
I will use the distributive property.

7n + 35 = 91

Subtract 35 on both sides

7n = 56

Now divide 7 on both sides to find n

A straight angle is 180 degrees. That means ∠DFG & ∠EFG have to add together to be 180.

2x + 6 + 3x - 11 = 180     Combine like terms

5x - 5 = 180                   Add 5 to both sides

5x = 185                         Divide by 5

x = 37
