Answer:

$599

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Discount- 40% off on original price.

Gift card= $25

Total cost before taxes is $334.40

Lets assume the original price be "x".

We know there is 40% on original price and Perry uses $25 gift card.

Remember; Total cost= $Original\ price- discount- gift\ card$

Now, finding the original price of Iphone.

⇒ $x-0.40x-25= 334.40$

⇒ $0.60x-25= 334.40$

Adding both side by 25

⇒ $0.60x= 334.40+25$

⇒ $0.60x= 359.4$

Dividing both side by 0.60

⇒ $x= \frac{359.4}{0.60}$

∴ $x= 599$

Hence, the original price of iphone is $599

Solve the following equation. Remember to check for extraneous solutions 1/(x-6) + (x/(x-2)) = (4/(x²-8x+12)).

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

-1, 2, 6

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to solve the equation as follows: 1/(x-6) + (x/(x-2)) = (4/(x²-8x+12)).

Now, we have, $\frac{1}{x-6} +\frac{x}{x-2} = \frac{4}{x^{2}-8x+12 }$

⇒ $\frac{(x-2)+x(x-6)}{(x-2)(x-6)} = \frac{4}{x^{2}-8x+12 }$

⇒ $\frac{x-2+x^{2}-6x }{(x-2)(x-6)} =\frac{4}{(x-2)(x-6)}$

⇒ $\frac{(x-2)(x-6)}{x^{2}-5x-2 }=\frac{(x-2)(x-6)}{4}$

⇒ $(x-2)(x-6)[\frac{1}{x^{2} -5x-2} -\frac{1}{4} ]=0$

⇒ $(x-2)(x-6) =0$ or, $[\frac{1}{x^{2} -5x-2} -\frac{1}{4} ]=0$

If, (x-2)(x-6) =0, then x=2 or x=6

If, $[\frac{1}{x^{2} -5x-2} -\frac{1}{4} ]=0$ , then $x^{2} -5x-2=4$

and (x-6)(x+1) =0

Therefore, x=6 or -1

So the solutions for x are -1, 2 6. (Answer)

he U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that the average annual expenditure on food and drink for all families is $5700. Assu

Papessa [141]

Answer:

87.08% percentage of families spend more than $4000 annually on food and drink

Step-by-step explanation:

Given -

average annual expenditure on food and drink for all families is $5700

Mean $(\nu)$ = 5700

standard deviation $(\sigma )$ = 1500

Let X be the no of families spend annually on food and drink

percentage of families spend more than $4000 annually on food and drink =

$P(X > 4000)$ = $P(\frac{X - \nu }{\sigma }> \frac{ 4000 - 5700}{1500})$

= $P(Z > - 1.13)$ Using $(Z = \frac{X - \nu }{\sigma })$

= 1 - $P(Z$

= 1 - .1292

= .8708

= 87.08%
