The graph shows a production possibilities curve for Sabrina’s Soccer.
At which point on the graph are resources not used efficiently?
A) point A
B) point F
C) point X
D) point Y
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
A production possibilities curve shows the maximum amount of 2 goods that can be produced given the input is fixed.
The points that lie on the curve gives different combinations of output of 2 goods given that resources shifts from one to another.The point outside the curve are impossible combination because with current resources, this much of both goods cannot be produced.The point inside the curve shows inefficient use of resources because more could be produced of each good given the resources.So the point which uses resources inefficiently is the one inside the curve, which is Y.
Answer choice D is right.
In a certain year the price of gasoline rose by 20% during January, fell by 20% during February, rose by 25% in March, and fell by x% in April. The price of gasoline at the end of April was the same as it had been at the beginning of January. Find the value of x.
Answer: The value of x is [tex]\frac{50}{3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the original price of gasoline be y
Since we have given that
Price of gasoline rose by 20% during January fell by 20% during February rose by 25% in March and fell by x% in April.
So, According to question,
In January, Price became
[tex]\frac{100+20}{100}\times y=\frac{120}{100}\times y=\frac{6}{5}\times y=\frac{6y}{5}[/tex]
Similarly, In February, Price became
[tex]\frac{100-20}{100}\times \frac{6y}{5}=\frac{80}{100}\times \frac{6y}{5}=\frac{4}{5}\times \frac{6y}{5}=\frac{4}{5}\times \frac{6y}{5}=\frac{24y}{25}[/tex]
Similarly, in March, Price became,
[tex]\frac{100+25}{100}\times \frac{4\times 6y}{25}=\frac{125}{100}\times \frac{6\times 4y}{25}=\frac{5}{4}\times \frac{24y}{25}=\frac{5}{4}\times \frac{24y}{25}=\frac{6y}{5}[/tex]
similarly, in April , Price became,
[tex]\frac{100-x}{100}\times \frac{6y}{5}[/tex]
so, we have given that the price of gasoline at the end of April was the same as it had been at the beginning of January.
So, it becomes,
[tex]\frac{6y}{5}\times \frac{100-x}{100}=y\\\\6(100-x)=500\\\\600-6x=500\\\\600-500=6x\\\\100=6x\\\\x=\frac{100}{6}=\frac{50}{3}[/tex]
Hence, the value of x is [tex]\frac{50}{3}[/tex]
Answer:
x= 16 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Price will be p
The price in January increases by 20%, it will be 6p/5. The price in February decreased by 20%, it becomes 24p/25. The price in March rose by 25%, it will be 6y/5.
April: 6y/5 times 100-x/100 = p 6(100-x)=500 100=6x x= 16 2/3

A zoo has 19 monkeys and 10 chimpanzees
Answer: It has 29 animals from this info.
The ratio comparing the number of monkeys to the number of chimpanzees in the zoo is[tex]\(19\) to \(10\), \(19:10\), or \(19/10\). This indicates that for every \(19\) monkeys, there are \(10\)[/tex]chimpanzees in the zoo.
The ratio comparing the number of monkeys to the number of chimpanzees in the zoo is expressed as [tex]\(19\) to \(10\), \(19:10\), or \(19/10\). This indicates that for every \(19\) monkeys, there are \(10\) chimpanzees in the zoo. Additionally, it can be written as \(10\) to \(19\), \(10:19\), or \(10/19\), showing the reverse comparison where for every \(10\) chimpanzees, there are \(19\) monkeys. Lastly, it can be represented as \(1.9:1\) or \(1.9/1\), highlighting that for every \(1.9\) monkeys, there is \(1\)[/tex]chimpanzee. These different representations offer flexibility in conveying the proportional relationship between the two quantities, allowing for a clearer understanding of the relative abundance of monkeys and chimpanzees in the zoo.

Valerie sold 42 tickets to the school play and mark sold 24 tickets. what is the ratio of the number of tickets Valerie sold to the number of tickets mark sold?
The ratio of tickets sold by Valerie to those sold by Mark is 7:4, after simplifying the original ratio of 42:24 by dividing both numbers by 6.
To find the ratio of tickets sold by Valerie to those sold by Mark, we simply compare the two quantities. Valerie sold 42 tickets, and Mark sold 24 tickets. Therefore, the ratio can be expressed as 42:24. This ratio can be simplified by dividing both numbers by their greatest common divisor, which is 6 in this case. Thus, after simplification, the ratio of tickets sold by Valerie to Mark is 7:4. This process illustrates the method of comparing quantities and simplifying ratios, providing a clear and concise representation of the relative ticket sales between Valerie and Mark.
A geometric sequence is shown below: 66 a0, -11, 22, 56 a1, 88, -176. A) What is the common ratio for this geometric sequence? 69 a2 B) What are the missing terms in the geometric sequence shown above?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a geometric sequence as
66 a0, -11, 22, 56 a1, 88, -176
We have to find the common ratio and also the missing numbers.
A geometric sequence, is a sequence of numbers where each term after the first is found by multiplying the previous one by a fixed, non-zero number called the common ratio.
Hence by comparing two consecutive numbers let us find common ratio.
Consider 88 and -176. -176 = 88(-2) Hence common ratio is -2
a0 = -11/-2 = 5.5
a1 = 88/-2 = -44
Missing terms are -132 and 5.5
common ratio = -2

Which algebraic rule describes the transformation?
A) (x, y) → (x + 2, y + 5)
B) (x, y) → (x − 2, y + 5)
C) (x, y) → (x + 2, y − 5)
D) (x, y) → (x − 2, y − 5)
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
The original figure was was moved 2 units to the left (-2), and 5 units down (-5).
Answer:
D is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the given figure two rectangle MNOP and M'N'O'P'
To choose correct transformation rule from MNOP to M'N'O'P'
So, we change for point M
M(-2,3) → M'(-4,-2)
If shift M 2 unit left
M(-2,3) → M(-2-2,3)
Now, shift 5 unit down
M(-2-2,3) → M(-4,-2) ⇔M'(-4,-2)
So,
(x,y) → (x-2,y-5)
Rule: (x,y) → (x-2,y-5)
Using this rule get MNOP to M'N'O'P'
a farmer bought a number of pigs for $180. However, 3 of them died before he could sell the rest at a profit of 8 per pig. His total profit was $109. how many pigs did he originally buy?
The farmer originally bought 41 pigs.
Let x be the number of pigs the farmer originally bought.The total cost of the pigs is $180.After 3 died, he was left with x - 3 pigs.He sold these pigs at a profit of $8 per pig,Resulting in a total profit of 8(x - 3).We know his total profit was $109. So, we can set up an equation:Profit = Selling price - Cost price8(x - 3) = 109 (his total profit) + 180 (cost price)
Combining like terms:8x - 24 = 289
Adding 24 to both sides:8x = 313
Dividing both sides by 8:x = 39.125
Since the farmer can't buy parts of pigs, we round x up to the nearest whole number, which is 40.However, there's a slight discrepancy because the profit wouldn't be exactly $109 if he had 40 pigs. This is because the profit is calculated per pig, and a fraction of a pig wouldn't generate a proportional profit.Therefore, let's try with x = 41:Profit = 8(41 - 3)= 8 * 38
= $304
Total earnings = Profit + Cost price= $304 + $180 = $484
Since the cost price is $180 and the total earnings are $484,The profit would be $484 - $180 = $304, This matches the calculation with 8 pigs sold at a profit of $8 each.Therefore, the farmer originally bought 41 pigs.

luz will buy a total of $9360 on her car loan. her monthly payment is $390. for how many months is the loan
Luz will have to pay $390 per month for 24 months to repay her $9360 car loan in full.
Explanation:To determine how many months Luz will need to pay for her car loan, we can use a simple division since the question doesn't mention anything about interest rates affecting the payments.
We divide the total loan amount she has to pay, which is $9360, by her monthly payment of $390.
Months to pay off the loan = Total loan amount ÷ Monthly payment
Months = $9360 ÷ $390
Months = 24
Luz will therefore have to make payments for 24 months to repay her car loan in full.

Write an equation for the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the graph of the given equation
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the equation of a line given a point and a parallel line we must use point-slope form.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
When we plug into this, we use the point in for (x1, y1) and the slope of the parallel line as m.

The original sale price of an item at markdowns is $110.95. You have an additional 20% off coupon for markdowns for purchases totaling $90.00 or more. Using the coupon, how much more do save when compared to the original sale price?
Answer:
$22.19
Step-by-step explanation:
20% off the original price = $110.95 - (20% x $110.95)
20% x $110.95 = $22.19
$110.95 - $22.19 = $88.76
difference = $110.95 - $88.76 = $22.19
Answer:
You will save $22.19 when compared to the original sale price.
Step-by-step explanation:
The original sale price of an item at markdowns is $110.95.
You have an additional 20% off coupon for markdowns for purchases totaling $90.00 or more.
So, this becomes:
[tex]0.20\times110.95=22.19[/tex] dollars
Hence, you will save $22.19 when compared to the original sale price.
Marissa is standing next to an 18 door tall flagpole that is casting a 12 foot long shadow. If Marissa's shadow is 3.5 feet long, how tall is Marissa
Answer:
5'3
Step-by-step explanation:
This question will look like this: 18/12 x/3.5. Remember about height/shadow.
You will need to cross multiply 18 and 3.5 and keep 12, x as 12x.
Now it will look like this: 12x=63. Divide that 63 with 12 and you will get 5.25.
Since there is a 5 next to that 2 you add 1 because 5 or higher add one and 5 or lower don't add anything.
You got rid of that 5 and added 1 to the 2, you will have 5'3

In Maria's store, the customer count this week is 3000. Maria is planning a promotion and expects a 5% increase in customers next week. How many additional customers is Maria expecting?
Answer:
There will be an additional 150 customers.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to find what 5% of 3000 is, to do this we need to use the following formula:
Amount x [tex]\frac{percentage}{100}[/tex]
Plug the values in:
3000 x [tex]\frac{5}{100}[/tex] = 150
So there will be an additional 150 customers!
Maria expects 150 additional customers next week, based on a 5% increase from her current customer count of 3000. The total number of customers anticipated is 3150. This calculation involves finding 5% of the current count and adding it to the original number.
To find out how many additional customers Maria is expecting, we need to calculate 5% of the current 3000 customers and then add this number to the original customer count.
Calculate 5% of the current customer count:
5% of 3000 = 0.05 * 3000 = 150 customers
Add the additional customers to the current customer count:3000 + 150 = 3150 customers
So, Maria is expecting an additional 150 customers next week due to the promotion.

In parallelogram ABCD , diagonals AC¯¯¯¯¯ and BD¯¯¯¯¯ intersect at point E, AE=x2−16 , and CE=6x . What is AC ? Enter your answer in the box.
Answer:
AC = 96 units.Step-by-step explanation:
Given ABCD is a parallelogram.
And diagonals AC and BD intersects at point E.
Note: Diagonals of a parallelogram intersects at mid-point.
E is the mid point of diagonal AC
Therefore,
AE = CE.
Plugging expression for AE and CE, we get
[tex]x^2-16 =6x.[/tex]
Subtracting 6x from both sides, we get
[tex]x^2-16-6x = 6x-6x[/tex]
[tex]x^2 -6x -16 =0[/tex]
Factoring quadratic
(x+2)(x-8) =0.
x+2 =0 => x=-2.
x-8=0 => x=8.
We can't take the length by a negative number. Therefore, x=8.
Now, plugging x= 8 in CE =6x, we get
CE = 6(8) = 48.
We need to find the length of AC.
AC would be two times of CE.
Therefore, AC = 2 × 48 = 96.
Answer:
96
Step-by-step explanation:
