Answer:

Answer: Original price = $150   Amount Paid = $90

Step-by-step explanation:

First we make a proportion 60/x = 40/100. When we cross multiply and divided to get x by itself we get $150 dollars. This is the original price of the dress. Now we take $150-$60 and we get $90. This is what Victoria paid for the dress after the 40% discount.

Hope this helps! :)

Lelu [443]

Answer:

1. City A: 150 violent crimes per 100,000 residents.

   City B: 161 violent crimes per 100,000 residents.

2. City A

Step-by-step explanation:

City A:

Population = 123,000

Violent crimes = 185

Violent crimes per 100,000 people:

V_{100k} = \frac{185*100,000}{123,000} \\V_{100k} = 150

City B:

Population = 84,000

Violent crimes = 135

Violent crimes per 100,000 people:

V_{100k} = \frac{135*100,000}{84,000} \\V_{100k} = 161

1. City A: 150 violent crimes per 100,000 residents.

   City B: 161 violent crimes per 100,000 residents.

2. Even though it has a bigger number of crimes, City A has the lowest crime rate since its population is larger.

4-58. Lisa plans to retire on her 61st birthday. On her
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Lisa invest "$2180.81" in her bank.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given values are:

On Lisa's 62nd birthday,

she withdraw = $10,000

The annuity of $A will remain at 3 percent for 40 years. The retirement pension of $10000 lasts 23 years at rate percentage of 3 but begins 40 years later.

⇒  A\times (\frac{P}{A} ,3 \ percent,40) - 10000 (\frac{P}{A} ,3 \ percent,23)\times \frac{1}{(1.03)40} = 0

⇒  A\times 23.1148 - 10000\times 16.4436\times 0.3066 = 0

⇒  A = 10000\times 16.4436\times \frac{0.3066}{23.1148}

⇒      = 10000\times 16.4436\times 0.0132

⇒      =2180.81 ($)

For an outdoor concert by the city orchestra, concert organizers estimate that 10,000 people will attend if it's not raining. If
Vlada [557]

Answer:

The number of expected people at the concert is 8,500 people

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to determine the expected number of people that will attend a concert if we are given the probabilities that it will rain and it will not rain.

We proceed as follows;

The probability that it will rain is 30% or 0:3

The probability that it will not rain would be 1 -0.3 = 0.7

Now, we proceed to calculate the number of people that will attend by multiplying the probabilities by the expected number of people when it rains and when it does not rain.

Mathematically this is;

Number of expected guests = (probability of not raining * number of expected guests when it does not rain) + (probability of raining * number of expected guests when it rains)

Let’s plug values;

Number of expected guests = (0.3 * 5,000) + (0.7 * 10,000) = 1,500 + 7,000 = 8,500 people
