Find the discount rate when the original price is $103.00 and the amount of the discount is $30.90

1 answer:

6 0

Its 30% because if you take 103 put it in the calculator and divide by 100 you get 1.03 and multiply that time 30 you get 30.9 thats how you find percent

A teenager who is 5 feet tall throws an object into the air. The quadratic function LaTeX: f\left(x\right)=-16x^2+64x+5f ( x ) =

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

At approximately x = 0.08 and x = 3.92.

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the ball is modeled by the function:

$f(x)=-16x^2+64x+5$

Where f(x) is the height after x seconds.

We want to determine the time(s) when the ball is 10 feet in the air.

Therefore, we will set the function equal to 10 and solve for x:

$10=-16x^2+64x+5$

Subtracting 10 from both sides:

$-16x^2+64x-5=0$

For simplicity, divide both sides by -1:

$16x^2-64x+5=0$

We will use the quadratic formula. In this case a = 16, b = -64, and c = 5. Therefore:

$\displaystyle x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

Substitute:

$\displaystyle x=\frac{-(-64)\pm\sqrt{(-64)^2-4(16)(5)}}{2(16)}$

Evaluate:

$\displaystyle x=\frac{64\pm\sqrt{3776}}{32}$

Simplify the square root:

$\sqrt{3776}=\sqrt{64\cdot 59}=8\sqrt{59}$

Therefore:

$\displaystyle x=\frac{64\pm8\sqrt{59}}{32}$

Simplify:

$\displaystyle x=\frac{8\pm\sqrt{59}}{4}$

Approximate:

$\displaystyle x=\frac{8+\sqrt{59}}{4}\approx 3.92\text{ and } x=\frac{8-\sqrt{59}}{4}\approx0.08$

Therefore, the ball will reach a height of 10 feet at approximately x = 0.08 and x = 3.92.

If cos(2/3x+20)°=sin(2x−10)°, find the acute angles of the corresponding right triangle.

adell [148]

Answer:

A = 40°

B = 50°

Step-by-step explanation:

If cos A = sin B, then A + B = 90

So, 2x/3 + 20 + 2x - 10 = 90

2x + 60 + 6x - 30 = 270

8x + 30 = 270

8x = 240

x = 30

2x/3 + 20 = 60/3 + 20 = 20 + 20 = 40

2x - 10 = 2(30) - 10 = 60 - 10 = 50 or 90 - 40 = 50

I need help please with step by step it would help me a lot

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

Domain: (-infinity, +infinity) since you can pick any x values.

Range: [0, +infinity) since it does not go below the x axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph is a parabola given by $y=x^2$

lets pick a few x values:

x = 1 gives us y = 1^2, which = 1

x = -1 gives us y = (-1)^2, which = 1

The parabola's domain is any x value as it extends to infinity.

For its range, you can see that it does not go below the x axis at x = 0. Therefore, the range of the parabola is from [0, infinity]

1. P(x)=x^2+2 2. P(x)= 2x +10

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Since p(x) = x² + 2 , if x ≤ 4

For x = 4 then this is included in the inequality x ≤ 4

whereas x > 4 does not include x = 4 but values greater than 4

Thus to evaluate x = 4 use p(x) = x² + 2

Mary has 15 points with the total value of $1.75 if the coins are nickels and quarters how many of each kind are there

torisob [31]

Answer:

The number of nickel coins is 10 and the number of quarter coins is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct question is

Mary has 15 coins with the total value of $1.75 if the coins are nickels and quarters how many of each kind are there

Let

x ----> the number of nickel coins

y ----> the number of quarter coins

Remember that

$1\ nickel=\$0.05$

$1\ quarter=\$0.25$

we know that

Mary has 15 coins

$x+y=15$ -----> equation A

The total value of the coins is $1.75

$0.05x+0.25y=1.75$ ----> equation B

Solve the system by graphing

Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs

using a graphing tool

The solution is the point (10,5)

therefore

The number of nickel coins is 10 and the number of quarter coins is 5
