Find the volume of this rectangular pyramid.

PLS HELP!!! due to inflation nominal prices are usually there were to demand increases. After the second increase the price for

SashulF [63]

Answer:

The first increase was of 60%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial value of the product is x.

The first increase was of y.

The second increase is of 25%, that is, 1.25.

The final price was double the original, so 2x.

This situation can be modeled by the following equation:

$xy(1.25) = 2x$

We want to find y.

Simplifying by x

$1.25y = 2$

$y = \frac{2}{1.25}$

$y = 1.6$

After the first increase, the value was 1.6 of the original value, that is a increase as a percent of (1.6 - 1)*100 = 60%.

A new mixture of self-tanning & moisturizing lotions for everyday use is being developed. This mixture is made by mixing 70

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

450 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the cost of the mixture $C_m$ must be the cost of the everyday moisturizing lotion $C_e$ plus the cost of the self-tanning lotion $C_s$ , which means $C_m=C_e+C_s$ .

The cost of any substance will be the cost per ounce of the substance (c), multiplied by the number of ounces (n), which means C=nc, so we have from the previous formula that we have:

$n_m c_m=n_e c_e + n_s c_s$

But we also know that the number of ounces of the mixture must be the sum of the number of ounces of the everyday moisturizing lotion with the number of ounces of the self-tanning lotion, so we have

$n_e c_e + n_s c_s=n_m c_m=(n_e+n_s) c_m=n_e c_m+n_s c_m$

We want to calculate the number of ounces of the self-tanning lotion ( $n_s$ ), so we solve for that variable:

$n_e c_e + n_s c_s=n_e c_m+n_s c_m$

$n_s c_s-n_s c_m=n_e c_m-n_e c_e$

$n_s (c_s-c_m)=n_e(c_m-c_e)$

$n_s=\frac{n_e (c_m-c_e)}{(c_s-c_m)}$

And substitute our values in this formula, to get:

$n_s=\frac{(700\ ounces) (\$1.6-\$0.7)}{(\$3-\$1.6)}=450\ ounces$

Suppose 300 nursing students took a certification test that is worth 100 points.

Alja [10]

Answer:

225 students scored 65 or better and 75 students scored 88 or better.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that The five-number summary for the scores of 300 nursing students are given :

Minimum = 40

$Q_1 = 65$

Median = 82

$Q_3 = 88$

Maximum = 100

$Q_1$ is the first quartile and is the median of the lower half of the data set. 25% of the numbers in the data set lie below $Q_1$ and about 75% lie above $Q_1$ .

$Q_3$ is the third quartile and is the median of the upper half of the data set. 75% of the numbers in the data set lie below $Q_3$ and about 25% lie above $Q_3$

i) .About how many students scored 65 or better?

$Q_1 = 65$

Since we know that 75% lie above $Q_1$ .

So, Number of students scored 65 or better = $75\% \times 300 = \frac{75}{100} \times 300 =225$

ii)About how many students scored 88 or better?

$Q_3 = 88$

Since we know that 25% lie above $Q_3$

So, Number of students scored 88 or better = $25\% \times 300 = \frac{25}{100} \times 300 =75$

Hence 225 students scored 65 or better and 75 students scored 88 or better.
