Answer:

39

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the discount

52 * 25%

52 * .25

13

Subtract that from the original amount

52-13

39

The price is 39 dollars

If 2(4x + 3)/(x - 3)(x + 7) = a/x - 3 + b/x + 7, find the values of a and b.
zmey [24]

Answer:

a=3 and b=5.

Step-by-step explanation:

So I believe the problem is this:

\frac{2(4x+3)}{x-3}(x+7)}=\frac{a}{x-3}+\frac{b}{x+7}

where we are asked to find values for a and b such that the equation holds for any x in the equation's domain.

So I'm actually going to get rid of any domain restrictions by multiplying both sides by (x-3)(x+7).

In other words this will clear the fractions.

\frac{2(4x+3)}{x-3}(x+7)}\cdot(x-3)(x+7)=\frac{a}{x-3}\cdot(x-3)(x+7)+\frac{b}{x+7}(x-3)(x+7)

2(4x+3)=a(x+7)+b(x-3)

As you can see there was some cancellation.

I'm going to plug in -7 for x because x+7 becomes 0 then.

2(4\cdot -7+3)=a(-7+7)+b(-7-3)

2(-28+3)=a(0)+b(-10)

2(-25)=0-10b

-50=-10b

Divide both sides by -10:

\frac{-50}{-10}=b

5=b

Now we have:

2(4x+3)=a(x+7)+b(x-3) with b=5

I notice that x-3 is 0 when x=3. So I'm going to replace x with 3.

2(4\cdot 3+3)=a(3+7)+b(3-3)

2(12+3)=a(10)+b(0)

2(15)=10a+0

30=10a

Divide both sides by 10:

\frac{30}{10}=a

3=a

So a=3 and b=5.

The time needed to complete a final examination in a particular college course is normally distributed with a mean of 80 minutes
mixer [17]

Answer:

0.02275

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the time needed to complete a final examination in a particular college course is normally distributed with a mean of 80 minutes and a standard deviation of 10 minutes. We are asked to find the probability of completing the exam in one hour or less.

We know that 1 hour equals 60 minutes. First of all, we will find the z-score corresponding to 60 minutes.  

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

z = z-score,

x = Sample score,

\mu = Mean,

\sigma = Standard deviation.

z=\frac{60-80}{10}

z=\frac{-20}{10}

z=-2

Now, we will use normal distribution table to find area under z-score of -2 as:

P(z< -2)

P(z< -2)=0.02275

Therefore, the probability of completing the exam in one hour or less is 0.02275.

If a storm window has an area of 640 square inches, what is the equation to find the dimensions when the window is 20 inches hig
Lyrx [107]
Area = width * height
since the window is 20 inches higher than the width:
width +20 = height

640 = width * width+20
640 = width^2 +20*width
width^2 +20*width - 640 = 0
width = 17.203
**********************************************************
Double Check
if width = 17.203 then height = 37.203
area = 17.203 * 37.203 = 640 square inches Correct!!

Use rounding or compatible numbers to estimate the sum 271 + 425
zysi [14]

Answer:

700

Step-by-step explanation:

For this one I'll do estimates. 271 estimated would drop down to 270. And 425 would bump up to 430. Adding 270 and 400 you would get a round number of 700!

Hope this helped.
