$120

Step-by-step explanation:

✯Hello✯

↪  If we know that the original price was 20% more than what was payed for it we can form an equation

↪  80%(x)=96 when we solve this x=120

↪ The original price was 120

↪  We can check this by working out 20% of 120 which is 24 and 120-24-96

Grace and her brother Sid want to raise money to go to band camp. Their parents have agreed to help them earn up to $400 by paying them $25 when one of them mows the lawn and $10 for each hour that one of them babysits their younger brother. They will have to do a combination of both chores in order to earn the money. Select the equation that represents the number of lawns they can mow, m, and hours they can babysit, b, to earn $400.

Answers

Answer:

25m + 10b = 400

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount that can be earned = $ 400

Amount earned on mowing a lawn = $ 25

Amount earned per hour on babysitting = $10

Amount earned for mowing one lawn is $ 25, so amount earned for mowing m lawns will be $ 25m

Amount earned for one hour of babysitting is $ 10, so amount earned for babysitting for b hours will be $ 10b

Total amount earned = Amount earned from mowing m lawns + Amount earned from babysitting for b hours

Using the values from above, we can set up the equation as:

400 = 25m + 10b

or

25m + 10b = 400

This equation represents the number of lawns they can mow, m, and hours they can babysit, b, to earn $400.

The figure is made up of 2 hemispheres and a cylinder.

Answers

Consider the attached figure. The height CD cuts the triangle exactly in half. This means that

[tex]\overline{AD}=\overline{BD}=\dfrac{1}{2}\overline{AB}=10[/tex]

Moreover, since CD is the height of the triangle, we know that ACD is a right triangle. We know the hypothenuse AC to be 20 feet because it is a side of the triangle, and we just found out that AD is 10. We can use the pythagorean theorem to deduce

[tex]\overline{CD}=\sqrt{\overline{AC}^2-\overline{AD}^2}=\sqrt{400-100}=\sqrt{300}[/tex]

So, the area is

[tex]A=\dfrac{bh}{2}=\dfrac{\overline{AB}\cdot\overline{CD}}{2} = \dfrac{20\cdot\sqrt{300}}{2}=10\sqrt{300}\approx 173[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔACD is 3 times the size of ΔABE, so the dilation uses a scale factor of 3. That only leaves choices A, D, and E.

Dilation about point A leaves point A in the same place, so choice E can be eliminated on that basis. (There is only one point A, and not a translated version, consistent with choice A.)

Point C in the larger triangle corresponds to point B in the smaller triangle, and is 4 units down from it. Hence the description of D makes sense.

Answers

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

(g o f)(3) = g(f(3))

We can find f(3) using its formula with x=3:

f(3) = -2·3 +8 = -6 +8 = 2

Now, we can find g(2) using its formula with x=2:

g(2) = 3·2 = 6

So, the composition value is ...

(g o f)(3) = 6

How would you find the volume of a rectangular prism with length of 1/4 inches, a width of 1 1/4 inches, and height of 4

Answers

Answer:

The volume would be 1 1/4 cubic inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, multiply all three numbers together because the formula for volume is length multiplied by width multiplied by height.

Answers

If I'm not wrong, there's no change in the measurement...  I think it's D.  since there's no visible change in the angle measurement. If it asked the coordinates then maybe I could elaborate. This question is confusing though. :/

The measure of angle Z after the transformation is D) 103°.Therefore , D.) 103​ is correct .

A translation does not change the measure of angles, so the measure of angle Z after the transformation is the same as the measure of angle Z before the transformation, which is 103°.

Image verification:

The image you sent shows a kite with the following angle measures:

Angle W = 96°

Angle X = 58°

Angle Y = 103°

Angle Z = 103°

The kite is translated up 3 units and 4 units to the right, which does not change the measure of any of the angles.

Therefore, the measure of angle Z after the transformation is still 103°.

Leo wants to paint a mural that covers a wall of an area of 600 square feet. The height of the wall is 2/3 of its lengtht. What is the lenght and the height of the wall?

Answers

Length is 30 feet and height is 20 feet.

To determine the dimensions of the wall, we set up an equation using the given area and the fact that the wall's height is 2/3 of its length. Solving for length and height, we find that the length is 30 feet and the height is 20 feet.

The question asks to determine the length and height of a wall that Leo wants to paint, given that the area of the wall is 600 square feet, and the height is 2/3 of its length. To solve this, we will set up an equation to represent the relationship between the length and height and use the area to find the specific dimensions.

Let's use L to represent the length of the wall and H to represent the height. According to the given information, H = (2/3)L. The area of a rectangle is calculated by multiplying its length by its height, so we can set up the equation:

Area = L \H = 600 sq ft

Substituting the height with its relation to length, we get:

600 = L \(2/3)L

Dividing both sides by L and then by 2/3, we find that:

L² = 600 \(3/2)

L² = 900

L = 30 ft (since length must be positive)

Now, to find the height:

H = (2/3)\L = (2/3) \ 30 = 20 ft

So, the length of the wall is 30 feet and the height is 20 feet.

For #1 and 2, Find the lateral area and surface area of each prism.

Answers

The lateral area and surface area of the cuboid are 72 square feet and 142 square feet, respectively. The lateral area and surface area of the prism are 42 square cm and 62 square cm, respectively.

To find the lateral area and surface area of the given cuboid and prism, we need to use the formulas for each.

For the cuboid:
1. Lateral Area: The lateral area of a cuboid can be found by adding the areas of its four side faces. Since the cuboid has a length of 7 feet, a breadth of 5 feet, and a height of 3 feet, we can calculate the lateral area as follows:
- Side 1: length * height = 7 feet * 3 feet = 21 square feet
- Side 2: breadth * height = 5 feet * 3 feet = 15 square feet
- Side 3: length * height = 7 feet * 3 feet = 21 square feet
- Side 4: breadth * height = 5 feet * 3 feet = 15 square feet
The total lateral area is the sum of these four areas: 21 + 15 + 21 + 15 = 72 square feet.

2. Surface Area: The surface area of a cuboid is found by adding the areas of all six faces. In addition to the lateral area, we need to include the areas of the top and bottom faces. Using the dimensions of the cuboid, we can calculate the surface area as follows:
- Top face: length * breadth = 7 feet * 5 feet = 35 square feet
- Bottom face: length * breadth = 7 feet * 5 feet = 35 square feet
The total surface area is the sum of these six areas: 72 (lateral area) + 35 (top face) + 35 (bottom face) = 142 square feet.

Now, for the prism:
1. Lateral Area: To find the lateral area of the prism, we need to find the perimeter of the base and multiply it by the height of the prism. Since the prism has a base with a length of 5 cm and a breadth of 2 cm, the perimeter is: 2 * (length + breadth) = 2 * (5 cm + 2 cm) = 2 * 7 cm = 14 cm.
The lateral area is obtained by multiplying the perimeter by the height: 14 cm * 3 cm = 42 square cm.

2. Surface Area: The surface area of the prism is the sum of the lateral area and twice the area of the base. Since the base is a rectangle with a length of 5 cm and a breadth of 2 cm, its area is: length * breadth = 5 cm * 2 cm = 10 square cm.
The surface area is then calculated as: 42 (lateral area) + 2 * 10 (area of the base) = 42 + 20 = 62 square cm.

Answer:

  3.  P(R1|Q) = 3/19 ≈ 0.16

Step-by-step explanation:

The desired probability is the ratio of P(Q·R1) to P(Q). The probability P(Q) is not given, but there is sufficient information to find it.

  P(Q·R1) = P(Q|R1)·P(R1) = 0.40·0.15 = 0.06

  P(Q·R2) = P(Q|R2)·P(R2) = 0.20·0.55 = 0.11

  P(Q·R3) = P(Q|R3)·P(R3) = 0.70·0.30 = 0.21

Since R1 and R2 and R3 are mutually exclusive and have a joint probability of 1, this means ...

  P(Q) = P(Q·R1) +P(Q·R2) +P(Q·R3) = 0.06 +0.11 +0.21 = 0.38

Then the desired probability is ...

  P(R1|Q) = P(Q·R1)/P(Q) = 0.06/0.38

  P(R1|Q) = 3/19 ≈ 0.16

Pascal wanted the area of the floor to be 54 square feet and the width still be 2/3 the length.What would the dimensions of the floor be?

PLZ HELP ME QUICKLY​

Answers

The dimensions should be 6ft by 9ft.

Final answer:

The dimensions of the floor with an area of 54 square feet, where the width is 2/3 of the length, are 9 feet in length and 6 feet in width.

Explanation:

Pascal wants to find the dimensions of a floor where the area is 54 square feet and the width is 2/3 the length. To find the dimensions, we set up an equation where the length is L and the width is W, with W = (2/3)L. Since area is calculated by the formula Area = length times width, we get 54 = L times (2/3)L. Solving this equation by multiplying the length terms and then dividing both sides by 2/3, we get L² = 54 times (3/2), which simplifies to L² = 81. Taking the square root of both sides gives us L = 9 feet. Consequently, the width would be W = (2/3) times 9 = 6 feet. Therefore, the dimensions of the floor are 9 feet by 6 feet.

One hundred people were surveyed about their favorite kind of yogurt. How many more people prefer chocolate than vanilla?
(vanilla- 25%)
(swirl-35%)
(chocolate- 40%)
a. 10
b. 15
c. 25
d. 40

Answers

Answer:

b) 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Total people = 100

% of people prefer vanilla = 25%

Number of people prefer vanilla out of 100 = 25% of 100

=> 25/100 * 100 = 25

% of people prefer swirl = 35%

Number of people prefer swirl out of 100 = 35% of 100

=> 35/100 * 100 = 35

% of people prefer chocolate = 40%

Number of people prefer chocolate out of 100 = 40% of 100

=> 40/100 * 100 = 40

The number of more people preferring chocolate over vanilla =  40 - 25

=> 15 so option b is correct

Answers

Final answer:

To determine the number of each type of question on the math test, set up a system of equations. Solve the system of equations using substitution or elimination method. The math test consists of 5 multiple-choice questions and 15 problem-solving questions.

Explanation:

To determine how many of each type of questions are used on the math test, we can set up a system of equations. Let's use x to represent the number of multiple-choice questions and y to represent the number of problem-solving questions. Since there are 20 questions in total, we have the equation x + y = 20. Each multiple-choice question is worth 5 points and each problem-solving question is worth 6 points, so we also have the equation 5x + 6y = 100.

We can solve this system of equations using substitution or elimination method. Let's solve it using elimination:

Multiply the first equation by 5 to make the coefficients of x the same in both equations: 5x + 5y = 100.Subtract the new equation from the second equation to eliminate x: (5x + 6y) - (5x + 5y) = 100 - 100. Simplifying, we get y = 20 - 5 = 15.Substitute y = 15 into the first equation to solve for x: x + 15 = 20. Subtracting 15 from both sides, we find x = 5.

Therefore, the math test consists of 5 multiple-choice questions and 15 problem-solving questions.

At 11:30 am the bottle is 1/4 of the way full . At what time will the bottle be 1/2 full

Answers

Answer:

B) 11:35 a.m.

Final answer:

The bottle will be half full at 11:50 PM, which is ten minutes before it is completely full at midnight, due to the exponential growth doubling the contents every ten minutes.

Explanation:

The question involves understanding exponential growth, specifically the doubling time of a population or, in a more tangible sense, the filling of a jar (or bottle). Given that a bottle doubles the amount inside every ten minutes and is full at midnight, we can calculate when the bottle will be half full by working backwards from the endpoint.

If the bottle is full at midnight, then it was half full at 11:50 PM, since the contents double every ten minutes. This reveals a common misunderstanding in our intuition about exponential growth, where significant change occurs in the final moments before reaching capacity.

In summary, to find out when the bottle will be half full, simply subtract a single doubling interval (ten minutes) from the time when the bottle is known to be full.
