The answer would be 747.50! Because if you were wanting to decrease the price then you would multiply $299 by 40% So since you are wanting to add to the price then you would divide...Hope that makes since :)

Answer: The most he could pay the manufacturer for the blow up bed is $213.57

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, if Jay King wants a 40% markup on selling price, we can state that “x” is 140% of $299.

Mathematically speaking:

1.4 x = $299

Where:

1.4 = decimal form of the percentage (140/100 =1.4)

x = manufacturer's blow up bed maximum price

Solving for x:

x = 299/1.4 = 213.57

So, the most he could pay the manufacturer for the blow up bed is $213.57

What are the zeros of the function g(x) = (x + 6) (x – 4)(x + 2) ?
vitfil [10]

Answer:

  x in {-6, -2, 4}

Step-by-step explanation:

The zero product rule tells you that a product will be zero if and only if one of the factors is zero. These binomial factors are zero when x has a value that is opposite the constant of the binomial.

  x +6 = 0   ⇒   x = -6

  x -4 = 0   ⇒   x = 4

  x +2 = 0   ⇒   x = -2

The zeros of the function are the x-values -6, -2, and 4.

Ten subjects are being studied to test the effectiveness of itch relief for three types of medication: A, B, and C. Using a 10-p
yan [13]

Answer: Choice C

They should be blocked by pain resistance so the subjects are as similar as possible.

============================================================

Explanation:

The process of blocking in statistics is where we group up people in blocks, and each block is determined by a characteristic of some sort. In this case, we're grouping people up by pain resistance level. Those very resistant to pain will be in one group, while those who easily feel pain will be in another block, and so on. It might be effective to have a pain scale and sort people by that.

Blocking is done so that we eliminate unwanted variability. We are testing the effectiveness of the itching cream, so all we care about is if the itch reduces or not. We aren't worried about the levels of pain. However, it says that "Previous studies have shown the effects of treatment may vary based on a subject's pain resistance". So we group up the people by pain tolerance to help eliminate the variability of pain tolerance levels.

This is why choice C is the final answer.

-------------

Extra info:

  • Choice A is false because a person's name doesn't have anything to do with if the treatment works or not.
  • Choice B is false because we weren't given any info to indicate it being true. It may be true, but we simply don't have enough info to confirm it.
  • Choice C is false for similar reasons as choice B.
