Answer:

618,000 might be the exact population of Vermont in 2008

Step-by-step explanation:

* <em>Lets explain the rule of rounding to the nearest ten thousands</em>

- To round numbers to the nearest ten thousand, make the

numbers whose last four digits are 0001 through 4999 into the

next lower number that ends in 0000

- Ex: 83,525 rounded to the nearest ten thousand would be

80,000.

- Numbers that have the last four digits of 5000 or more should

be rounded up to the next even ten thousand

- Ex: The number 58,988 rounded to the nearest ten thousand

would be 60,000

* <em>Lets do that in the problem</em>

∵ The number is 620,000 after rounded to the nearest

ten thousands

∴ We can chose any number whose last four digits are 00001

through 4999 as 624,000 <em>OR</em> 5000 or more as 618,000

∴ 618,000 might be the exact population of Vermont in 2008

Leon charged $75 at an interest rate of 12.5%. How much will Leon have to pay after one month if he makes no payments? Simple in

avanturin [10]

I'm guessing that this problem is talking about a loan of some sort. So basically, let's look at the given. In the problem, Leon is charged a fee of 75. The interest rate would be 12.5 % if he doesn't pay his due amount. So in order to get the total amount that he has to pay if he doesn't pay on time, you just need to multiply 75 with 12.5% or simply 0.125. If you do this, you will get 9.375. After that, you add 9.375 to the principal amount which is 75 and you will get 84.375. So Leon has to now pay a total of 84.375.

A sporting goods store sells right-handed and left-handed baseball gloves. In one month, 12 gloves were sold for a total revenue

stepladder [879]

Answer:

$9$ right-handed gloves and $3$ left-handed gloves were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: In one month, $12$ gloves were sold for a total revenue of $\$561$ .

right-handed gloves cost $\$45$ and left-handed gloves cost $\$52$ .

To find: How much of each type of gloves did they sell?

Solution: Let they sell $x$ right-handed gloves, and $y$ left-handed gloves.

Now, cost of each right-handed gloves $=\$45$

cost of each left-handed gloves $=\$52$

Total revenue $=\$561$

So, we get

$45x+52y=561\:\:\:...(i)$

Also, in a month $12$ gloves were sold.

So, we get

$x+y=12\:\:\:...(ii)$

Now, from $(ii)$ we get, $x=12-y$ .

Putting $x=12-y$ in equation $(i)$ , we get

$45(12-y)+52y=561$

$\implies 540-45y+52y=561$

$\implies7y=561-540$

$\implies7y=21$

$\implies y=\frac{21}{7}$

$\implies y=3$

Now, putting $y=3$ in equation $(ii)$ , we get

$x+3=12$

$\implies x=12-3$

$\implies x=9$

Hence, $9$ right-handed gloves and $3$ left-handed gloves were sold.

Hi this is algebra math. It’s been a while since I’ve been on this app but I need some help on if the problem graphed the slope

Umnica [9.8K]

The graph is wrong, the slope is correct but because the sign is less than y that means the line on the graph should be dotted not solid.
