at a sale a desk is being sold for 24% of the regular price. the sale price is $182.40 what is the regular price

we have that

24% ------> represent $182.40

Applying proportion

Find out the 100%

Let

x ----> the regular price

182.40/24=x/100

solve for x

x=(182.40)*(100)/24

x=$760

therefore

<h2>The regular price is $760</h2>

A town has a population of 8000 and grows at 3% every year. To the nearest tenth of a year, how long will it be until the popula

Alexxx [7]

Answer:

It will take approximately 34 years

Step-by-step explanation:

If a town population is 8000 and grows 3% annually.

How long will it take to reach 16300

growth is 16300 - 8000 = 8300

using simple interest formula

SI = (P × r × t)/100

8300 = (8000 × 3 × t)100

8300= (80 × 3)t

8300 = 240t

t = 8300/240

t ≈ 34 years to the nearest tenth

Answer:

Part 1) The inequality that represent this situation is $5(x+7)^{2} \geq1,050$ or $5x^{2}+70x+245 \geq1,050$

Part 2) Yes, 8 inches is a reasonable width for his tablet

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1)

Let

L -----> the length of the screen television

W ----> the width of the screen television

x ----> the width of Andrew's tablet

we know that

$L=5W$ ------> equation A

$W=x+7$ ----> equation B

The area of the television is

$A=LW$ -----> equation C

Substitute equation A and equation B in equation C

$A=5(x+7)(x+7)$

$A=5(x+7)^{2}$

$5(x+7)^{2} \geq1,050$

$5(x^{2}+14x+49) \geq1,050$

$5x^{2}+70x+245 \geq1,050$ ------> inequality that represent this situation

Part 2) Determine if 8 inches is a reasonable width for his tablet

For x=8 in

Substitute in the inequality

$5(8+7)^{2} \geq1,050$

$5(15)^{2} \geq1,050$

$1,125 \geq1,050$ -----> is true

therefore

Yes, 8 inches is a reasonable width for his tablet

Which of the following statements correctlydescribes the points

gregori [183]

The first statement is correct

To calculate the distance we have to substrate the values of the Y axis only since X values are constant so the distance IS 4 - - 7=4+7=11
