Answer: He would pay 45% of the original price.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Let the original price of item be 'x'

Rate mark down by 25%

Amount of marked down would be

\dfrac{25}{100}\times x\\\\=0.25x

Amount after marked down becomes

x-0.25x\\\\=0.75x

Additional clearance items by 40% off

Amount of additional off is given by

\dfrac{40}{100}\times 0.75x\\\\=0.4\times 0.75x\\\\=0.3x

After additional off, the amount becomes,

0.75x-0.3x\\\\=0.45x

Hence, he would pay 45% of the original price.

Annette [7]

The price of one ticket is $ 62.2

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that a performer expects to sell 5000 tickets for an upcoming event

They want to make a total of $ 311, 000 in sales from these tickets

<em><u>To find: price of one ticket</u></em>

Let us assume that all tickets have the same price

Let "a" be the price of one ticket

So the total sales price of $ 311, 000 is obtained from product of 5000 tickets and price of one ticket

\text {total sales price }=5000 \times \text { price of one ticket }

311000 = 5000 \times a\\\\a = \frac{311000}{5000}\\\\a = 62.2

Thus the price of one ticket is $ 62.2

Which fraction represents the decimal 0. ModifyingAbove 1 2 with Bar? One-twelfth StartFraction 3 Over 25 EndFraction StartFract
mestny [16]

The considered decimal number is expressed by the fraction given by: Option C: 4/33

<h3>How to convert from decimal to fraction?</h3>

For conversion from decimal to fraction, we write it in the form a/b such that the result of the fraction comes as the given decimal. Usually, to get the decimal of the form a.bcd, we count how many digits are there after the decimal point (if its finite), then we write 10 raised to that many power as denominator, and the considered number without any decimal point as numerator.

For example:

0.99 = \dfrac{99}{10^2} = \dfrac{99}{100}

(10 raised to power k = 1 followed by k zeroes)

<h3>What is the sum of an infinite geometric series?</h3>

The sum of an infinite geometric series having the initial term "a" and the multiplication per term is done by "r" such that r < 1

is given by

S_{\infty} = \dfrac{a}{1-r}

The series would look like a+ ar+ ar^2+\cdots

For the considered case, the given decimal number is

0.\overline{12} = 0.121212\cdots

We can check all the options available one by one, so as to know which one ends up giving this pattern, or we can use another technique as shown below.

0.12121...  = (0.1 + 0.001 + 0.00001 + ... ) + (0.02 + 0.0002 + 0.000002 + ... )

Each of the two series obtained are geometric series with the multiplication factor as 1/100

Using the sum formula for evaluation of an infinite geometric series, and the fact that initial term of first series is 0.1 and that of second series is 0.02, we get:
0.121212... = \dfrac{0.1}{1-1/100} + \dfrac{0.02}{1 - 1/100} = \dfrac{1}{99/100}(\dfrac{1}{10} + \dfrac{2}{100})\\0.121212...  = \dfrac{100}{99}\times(\dfrac{10}{100} + \dfrac{2}{100})\\\\\\0.121212 ... = \dfrac{12}{99} = \dfrac{4}{33}

Thus, the considered decimal number is expressed by the fraction given by: Option C: 4/33

If sin x=2/9,x, in quadrant i, then find(without findingx): sin(2x), cos(2x), tan(2x)
Sergio039 [100]
We have that
<span>sin x=2/9

we know that
sin</span>² x+cos² x=1---------> cos² x=1-sin² x-----> cos² x=1-(2/9)²
cos² x=1-(4/81)------> (81-4)/81-----> 77/81
cos x=√(77/81)

Sin 2x = 2 sin x cos x-------> 2*(2/9)*(√(77/81))----> (4/81)*√77---> 0.43

Sin 2x=0.43
so
cos² 2x=1-sin² 2x---------> 1-[0.43]²-----> 1-[0.1878]----> 0.81
cos² 2x=0.81-----------> cos 2x=0.9

tan 2x=sin 2x/cos 2x--------> tan 2x=0.43/0.9---------> tan 2x=0.48

the answers are
sin 2x=0.43
cos 2x=0.9
tan 2x=0.48

Find the area of the semicircle. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.<br> PLEASEE HELPP
trapecia [35]

Answer:

Area of semicircle = 226.08 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Diameter of semicircle = 24 in

We need to find area of semicircle.

The formula used to find area of semicircle is: Area=\frac{\pi r^2}{2}

First we will find radius

We know that: radius = diameter/2 = 24/2 = 12

Now, finding area

Area=\frac{\pi r^2}{2}\\Area=\frac{3.14\times (12)^2}{2}\\Area=\frac{452.16}{2}\\Area=226.08\:in^2

So, Area of semicircle = 226.08 in²
