A book on the clearance rack was marked down 65% from $21.95. Approximately, how much was the book discounted?

Answer:

[tex] {x}^{2} + 2x - 15[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]x(x + 5) - 3(x + 5) \\ = \times {x}^{2} + 5x - 3x - 15 \\ = {x}^{2} + 2x - 15[/tex]

Final answer:

To expand and simplify (x - 3)(x + 5), we use the FOIL method, resulting in [tex]x^2 + 5x - 3x - 15[/tex]. Combining like terms, we get the simplified form [tex]x^2 + 2x - 15.[/tex]

Explanation:

To expand and simplify the expression (x - 3)(x + 5), we use the distributive property, also known as the FOIL method, which stands for First, Outer, Inner, and Last. This refers to the terms you multiply together in a binomial multiplication:

First: Multiply the first terms in each binomial: x* x = [tex]x^2[/tex]

Outer: Multiply the outer terms in the binomials: x *5 = 5x

Inner: Multiply the inner terms in the binomials: -3 * x = -3x

Last: Multiply the last terms in each binomial: -3 * 5 = -15

Combining these products gives us: [tex]x^2 + 5x - 3x - 15.[/tex] We then combine like terms, which in this case are 5x and -3x:

[tex]x^2 + 2x - 15.[/tex]

So, the expanded and simplified form of (x - 3)(x + 5) is [tex]x^2 + 2x - 15.[/tex]

Answer:

3/5 0r 0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

A mod B = R

3/5 mod 6, because 3/5 < 6

so (3/5) / 6 = 0 ... R 3/5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A = L * W

A = 99

L = 2w + 7

now we sub

99 = (2w + 7)(w)

99 = 2w^2 + 7w

2w^2 + 7w - 99 = 0

(2w - 11)(w + 9) = 0

2w - 11 = 0

2w = 11

w = 11/2

w = 5 1/2 ft (or 5.5 ft) <==== width is 5 1/2 ft)

L = 2w + 7

L = 2(5.5) + 7

L = 11 + 7

L = 18 ft <====== length is 18 ft

Answer:

Measure of Angle 5 = 150 degree.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given line g and h are parallel lines.

Let angle measuring [tex]30\ degree[/tex] be a.

From figure we can see that [tex]\angle a\ and\ \angle 3[/tex] both are Linear Pair Postulate,

i.e. [tex]\angle\ a+\angle 3 =180\ degree[/tex]

So,

[tex]30\ degree +\angle 3 =180\ degree[/tex]

[tex]\angle 3 = 180-30[/tex]

[tex]\Therefore \angle 3=150\ degree[/tex]   ------------(equation 1)

Now, [tex]\angle\ a\ and\ \angle\ 4[/tex] are alternate interior angles, and alternate interior angles are equal.

i.e. [tex]\angle\ a = \angle 4[/tex]

Therefore  [tex]\angle\ 4 =30\ degree[/tex]  ------------(equation 2)

Now, [tex]\angle 4\ and\ \angle 7[/tex] both are Linear Pair Postulate,

i.e. [tex]\angle\ 4 +\angle\ 7 = 180\ degree[/tex]

[tex]30+\angle\ 7=180[/tex]    ------------------(from equation 2)

[tex]\angle\ 7 =180-30[/tex]

[tex]\therefore\ \angle\ 7 = 150\ degree[/tex] ---------(equation 3)

Now,  [tex]\angle\ 7\ and \angle\ 5[/tex] are vertically opposite angles, and vertically opposite angles are equal.

So,

[tex]\angle 7=\angle 5[/tex]

[tex]\therefore\ \angle 5=150\ \ degree[/tex] -----------------(from equation 3)

Answer:

The value of [tex]a_{4}=15[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that [tex]a_{1}=6[/tex] and [tex]a_{n}=a_{n-1}+3[/tex]

Given sequence is of the form arithmetic sequence

For arithmetic sequence the sequence is [tex]a_{1},a_{2},a_{3},...[/tex]

The nth term is of the form  [tex]a_{n}=a_{n-1}+d[/tex]

Here  [tex]a_{1}=6[/tex] and [tex]a_{n}=a_{n-1}+3[/tex]

from this the common differnce is 3.

Therefore d=3

To find  [tex]a_{2}[/tex], [tex]a_{3}[/tex] , [tex]a_{4}[/tex]

[tex]a_{n}=a_{n-1}+d[/tex]

put n=2 and d=3 we get

[tex]a_{2}=a_{2-1}+3[/tex]

[tex]a_{2}=a_{1}+3[/tex]

[tex]a_{2}=6+3[/tex]   (here  [tex]a_{1}=6[/tex] )

Therefore [tex]a_{2}=9[/tex]

[tex]a_{n}=a_{n-1}+d[/tex]

put n=3 and d=3 we get

[tex]a_{3}=a_{3-1}+3[/tex]

[tex]a_{3}=a_{2}+3[/tex]

[tex]a_{3}=9+3[/tex]   (here  [tex]a_{2}=9[/tex] )

Therefore [tex]a_{3}=12[/tex]

[tex]a_{n}=a_{n-1}+d[/tex]

put n=4 and d=3 we get

[tex]a_{4}=a_{4-1}+3[/tex]

[tex]a_{4}=a_{3}+3[/tex]

[tex]a_{4}=12+3[/tex]   (here  [tex]a_{3}=12[/tex] )

Therefore [tex]a_{4}=15[/tex]

Therefore the sequence is 6,9,12,15,...

Therefore the value of [tex]a_{4}=15[/tex]

Answer:

there are 8 pigs because each pig has 4 legs. meanwhile, ducks technically by definition, only have 2 legs,wings do not count as legs.

Step-by-step explanation:

so 1 pig=4 legs.

8 pigs =32 legs

so 32+2x=36

To solve the problem, set up a system of equations using the number of pigs and ducks. Solve the system of equations to find the values of 'p' and 'd'. There are 8 pigs and 2 ducks in the farmhouse.

Let's assume the number of pigs is 'p' and the number of ducks is 'd'. Since each pig has 4 legs and each duck has 2 legs, we can set up the equation: 4p + 2d = 36 (since there are 36 legs in total). We also know that there are 10 animals in total, so we can set up another equation: p + d = 10. Now we have a system of equations which we can solve to find the values of 'p' and 'd'.

Multiplying the second equation by 2, we get 2p + 2d = 20. Subtracting this equation from the first equation, we get 4p + 2d - (2p + 2d) = 36 - 20, which simplifies to 2p = 16. Dividing both sides of the equation by 2, we find that p = 8. Substituting this value back into the second equation, we get 8 + d = 10, which means d = 2.

Therefore, there are 8 pigs and 2 ducks in the farmhouse.

Answer: Karen's weight = 125 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Karen's weight be x , this means that John's weight is 3x.

Two times John’s weight = 2(3x)

Two times John’s weight plus Karen’s weight is 875 pounds implies;

2(3x) + x = 875

6x + x = 875

7x = 875

divide through by 7

x = 125

Therefore Karen's weight = 125 pounds

John's weight = 3 x 125 = 375 pounds

Answer:

John weighs 375 pounds, and Karen weighs 125 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The best way to solve this question is to assign the weights to variables.

Let's give variable j to John's weight and k to Karen's.

If John weighs 3 times as much as Karen, j=3k.

If 2x John's weight plus 1x Karen's weight = 875, then 2j + k = 875,

which can also be written as 6k + k = 875 since we established that j=3k and 2*3=6.

Now all we need to do to find k is solve the equation:

6k + k = 875  combine common factors

7k = 875 divide both sides by 7

k = 875/7

k = 125

Now that we know Karen's weight, we can find John's weight by using j=3k.

Plug the now known value of k in:

j=3k

j=3(125)

j=375

Now you have your pair:

j=375, k = 125.

Answer:

x + 2 = 0 and y - 3 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the solution of the system of equations  

6x + 2y = - 6 ........... (1)

⇒ 12x + 4y = - 12 .......... (2) and  

3x - 4y = - 18 ........... (3)

Now, solving equations (2) and (3) we get,

15x = - 30

⇒ x = - 2

Hence, from equation (1) we get, 2y = - 6 - 6x = - 6 - 6(- 2) = 6

⇒ y = 3

Therefore, the solution of the given system of equations is (-2,3).

Now, x + 2 = 0 and y - 3 = 0 are another system of equations that have the same solutions. (Answer)

(3) x = 2 and y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) 2x - 3y = -2  ................... equation 1

   2x + y = 14 ................ equation 2

solving the system of linear equation by elimination method. We need to decide the variable to eliminate first , in this case , since the coefficient of x are the same  and they have the same signs (+), we can eliminate the variable x first by subtracting equation 1 from equation 2, so we have

2x - 2x + y - (-3y ) = 14 - ( - 2)

4y = 16

divide through by 4

y = 4

substitute y = 4 into equation 1 , we have

2x - 3 (4) = -2

2x - 12 = -2

2x = -2 + 12

2x = 10

x = 5

Therefore :

x = 5 and y = 4

(2) x = -6y - 3 ....................... equation 1

    8x + 8y = -24 ....................... equation 2

Solving the system of linear equation by substitution method , substitute x = -6y - 3 into equation 2 , equation 2 becomes

8(-6y - 3 ) + 8y = -24

expanding , we have

-48y - 24 + 8y = -24

-40y - 24 = -24

Add 24 to both sides , we have

- 40y = -24 + 24

-40y = 0

divide through by -40

y = 0/-40

y = 0

substitute y = 0 into equation 1 , equation 1 then becomes

x = -6(0) - 3

x = -3

Therefore : x = -3 and y = 0

(3)  5x + 5y = 20 ........................ equation 1

    -3x + 5y = 4  ............................ equation 2

solving the system of linear equation by elimination method , we have to decide the variable to eliminate first , since the coefficient of y are the same and are both positive, we will eliminate y by subtracting equation 2 from equation 1 , we have

5x - (-3x) + 5y - 5y = 20 - 4

5x + 3x + 0 = 16

8x = 16

x = 2

substitute x = 2 into equation 1 , equation becomes

5(2) + 5y = 20

10 + 5y = 20

5y = 20 - 10

5y = 10

y = 2

Therefore : x = 2 and y = 2

∵ f(x) is multiplied by 3

- 3 is greater than 1, then the graph of f(x) is stretched vertically

  by scale factor 3

∴ The graph of f(x) is stretched vertically by scale factor 3

∵ x² is changed to (x - 2)²

- That means the graph of f(x) translated 2 units to the right

∴ The graph of f(x) is translated 2 units to the right

We get the percentage from this ,

Percentage = [tex]\frac{87}{114} \times 100[/tex] = 76.3 %

Border percentages = 72.3 and 80.3% (Since error = 4%)

We have already taken vote of 114 people so remaining = 9804

Lower end = 0.723 [tex]\times[/tex] 9804 =  7266

Upper end = 0.803[tex]\times[/tex] 9804 = 7872

Hence the range = 7266 to 7872

Answer: 21

Step-by-step explanation:

9  + 10 = 21

The expression simplifies to 81 over 16 by applying the exponent rules, particularly recognizing that any number to the power of 0 is 1 and when raising a power to a power, we multiply the exponents.

The student's question is asking to simplify the expression 3 to the power of 2 multiplied by 5 to the power of 0 whole over 4, the whole squared. To simplify this expression, we should apply the exponent rules.

Let's simplify step-by-step:

First, recognize that any number raised to the power of 0 is 1.

The expression now  simplifies to square of three, since anything multiplied by 1 remains unchanged.

Now, take the entire expression over 4 and square it as indicated.

Thus, the correct answer is 3 to the power of 4 multiplied by 1 squared over 4 squared equals 81 over 16.

Answer:

y = -2x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 2y - 6 = 0

2y - 6 = -4x

2y = -4x + 6

y = -2x + 3

Answer:

The slope-intercept form is,

y = -2x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation of the line is,

4x + 2y  - 6 = 0

Subtracting "(4x- 6)" from both sides of the above equation, we get

   4x + 2y - 6 - (4x - 6) = 0 - (4x - 6)

⇒ 4x + 2y - 6 - 4x + 6 = 0 - 4x + 6

⇒ 2y = -4x + 6

Now, dividing both sides by '2' of the above equation, we get

 2y ÷ 2 = (-4x + 6) ÷ 2

⇒y = -2x + 3

This is the required slope-intercept form of the given line.

Answer:

The graph of y + 1 = −3/5 (x − 4) would be a straight line. The graph figure is attached below.

Step-by-step explanation:

As the linear equation y + 1 = −3/5 (x − 4) is given.

Since y-y₁ = m (x - x₁) is the Point-slope form is the general form y-y₁=m(x-x₁) for linear equations.

Hence, from the linear equation we can determine the slop which is m = -3/5

Also, when we put x = 0 in the linear equation, we determine the y-intercept as follows:

                            y + 1 = −3/5 (x − 4)

                            y + 1 = -3/5(-4)      ∵x = 0

                            y = 12/5 - 1

                            y = 7/5

y-intercept: 7/5

Hence,

Table for some points can be made for x and values as:

0           7/5

1            4/5

The graph of y + 1 = −3/5 (x − 4) would be a straight line. The graph figure is attached below.
