Amount decreased =$75 - $63 = $12

Percent decreased = 12/75 x 100 = 16%

First, subtract 63 from 75 to find out how much it decreased.
75 - 63 = 12
Divide 12 by 75.
12 / 75 = 0.16
In percents, that is 16%.
He spent 16% less this month.
Hope this helps!

Answer:

2.0 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given quadratic functions:

$\begin{cases}y=-7x^2+26x+3\\y=-6x^2 +23x+5\end{cases}$

To find the time, in seconds, that the balloons collided at the highest point, substitute one equation into the other equation and rearrange to equal zero:

$\begin{aligned}-6x^2+23x+5 & = -7x^2+26x+3\\-6x^2+23x+5+7x^2 & = -7x^2+26x+3+7x^2\\x^2+23x+5 & = 26x+3\\x^2+23x+5-26x & = 26x+3-26x\\x^2-3x+5& = 3\\x^2-3x+5-3& = 3-3\\x^2-3x+2& = 0\end{aligned}$

Factor the quadratic:

$\begin{aligned}x^2-3x+2 & = 0\\x^2-2x-x+2 & = 0\\x(x-2)-1(x-2) & = 0\\(x-1)(x-2) & = 0\\\end{aligned}$

Apply the zero-product property to solve for x:

$\implies (x-1)=0 \implies x=1$

$\implies (x-2)=0 \implies x=2$

Therefore, the balloons collided at 1 second and 2 seconds.

To find at which time the highest point of collision occured, substitute both values of x into one of the functions:

$f(1)=-6(1)^2 +23(1)+5=22$

$f(2)=-6(2)^2 +23(2)+5=27$

Therefore, the time, in seconds, that the balloons collided at the highest point is 2.0 seconds.

Answer:

Marcus score is 13.7, the mean is 12.89, and the standard deviation is 1.95, so I’ll do ( 13.7 – 12.89)/ 1.95, Since Marcus' z-score is 0.415. The area to the left of the z-score is 65.9% so therefore Marcus did scored better than 65.9% of the students. So Marcus needs to score 98% better of all the other students in order for him to receive an actual certificate.
