A wallet is originally $11.00. With a 40% discount, what is the sales price? Show your work.

NeX [460]

Answer:

$6.6

Step-by-step explanation:

you want to find out what 40% of the original price is ($11)

100% = 11

10%= 1.1

to get 40% you times it by 4

40%= 4.4

you then have to take away the sale reduction from the original

11- 4.4 =$6.6

A rancher wishes to build a fence to enclose a rectangular pen having area 24 square yards. Along one side the fence is to be ma

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

The value is $C \approx \$76$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The area of the rectangular pen is $A = 24 \ yard^2$

The cost of material used to make one side is $z = \$ 6$

The cost of material used to make the other sides is $r = \$ 3$

Now , the fence to be build around the rectangular pen has four sides, the first opposite sides are equal, let assume each of the to be x yard and the other opposite sides are also equal as well let assume of the to be y yard

So the cost is mathematically represented as

$C = zx + r (x + 2y )$

=> $C = 6x + 3(x + 2y)$

=> $C = 9x + 6y$

Now the area of the fence is mathematically represented as

$A = x* y = 24$

=> $y = \frac{24}{x}$

=> $C = 9x + 6[\frac{24}{x} ]$

=> $C = 9x + [\frac{144}{x} ]$

Now differentiating

$C' = 9 + 144* (-2) x^{-2}$

$C' = 9 - 288x^{-2}$

At minimum $C' = 0$

$9 - 288x^{-2} = 0$

$x^{-2} = 0.03125$

$x = \sqrt{\frac{1}{0.03125} }$

$x = 5.66$

Now substituting for x in the equation above to obtain minimum cost

$C = 9(5.66) + [\frac{144}{5.66} ]$

$C \approx \$76$

I need help on this parallelograms math problem.

Andrews [41]

w=37

2w+w+69= 180 knowing that all triangles add up to 180 form an equation

3w+69=180 combine like terms and subtract 69 from both sides

3w=111 divide by 3 from both sides

w=37
