A bookstore manager marks down the price of older hardcover books,which originally sell for b dollars,by 46 percent. What is the

markdown as a decimal. Write an expression for the sale price of the hardcover book. What is the same price of a hardcover book for which the original retail price was $29.00? If you buy the book in part c, how much do you save by paying the sale price?

We are given original selling price of book = $b.

Price is marked down by 46%.

46% can be written as 46/100 in decimals it would be 0.46.

Therefore, markdown as a decimal is 0.46

Now, markdown is 0.46 of original price = 0.46b

Therefore, new price after marked down can be written by expression =

b - 0.46b = 0.56b.

<h3>Therefore, the expression for the sale price of the hardcover book is 0.56b.</h3>

If original retail price was = $29.00.

The sale price would be 0.56b = 29*0.56 = $15.66.

Total saving = 29-15.66 = $13.34.

Therefore, you save $13.34 by paying the sale price $15.66.

Resistors. An electrical engineer has two boxes of resistors, with four resistors in each box. The resistors in the first box ar
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

A. Sample Space = S = {(9, 18),(9, 19),(9, 20),(9, 21),(10, 18),(10, 19),(10, 20),(10, 21),(11, 18),(11, 19),(11, 20),(11, 21),(12, 18),(12, 19),(12, 20),(12, 21)}

B.  {(9, 18),(10, 18),(11, 18),(12, 18)}

C. {(9, 18),(9, 19),(10, 18)}

D.  {(9, 18),(9, 19),(10, 18),(11, 18),(12, 18)}

E. B(complement) ∩C =  {(9, 19)}

Step-by-step explanation:

The Sample Space would contain each element of the box A associated with each element of the box B.

A. Sample Space = S = {(9, 18),(9, 19),(9, 20),(9, 21),(10, 18),(10, 19),(10, 20),(10, 21),(11, 18),(11, 19),(11, 20),(11, 21),(12, 18),(12, 19),(12, 20),(12, 21)}

B.  Let the Outcomes in the event B, the event that the second resistor has a resistance less than 19 be denoted by J then

J=  {(9, 18),(10, 18),(11, 18),(12, 18)}

C. Let the outcomes in the event C, the event that the sum of the resistances is equal to 28 be denoted by L then

L =  {(9, 18),(9, 19),(10, 18)}

D. The  outcomes in B∪C contains all the elements of B and C

B∪C=J∪L= {(9, 18),(9, 19),(10, 18),(11, 18),(12, 18)}

E. B complement contains those elements of the Sample Space which are not the elements of Set B.

B complement= S-B=  {(9, 19),(9, 20),(9, 21),(10, 19),(10, 20),(10, 21),(11, 19),(11, 20),(11, 21),(12, 19),(12, 20),(12, 21)}

B(complement) ∩C contains those elements of B and C which are common to both B complement and C.

B(complement) ∩C =  {(9, 19)}

What is the circumference of circle p ? Express in terms of pie
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
The circumference of a circle is calculated using the following equation:

C= \pi d

Where d is equal to the diameter (the length of a straight line from one side of the circle to the other side).

We know that the diameter of the circle given (also known as AB) is equal to 20 cm.

We can then plug this into the equation and solve for the circumference:

C= \pi (20)

Since the question asks for the answer to be in terms of \pi, this is as far as we need to go. So the circumference of the circle is: 20 \pi or D.
