A store prices tapes by raising the wholesale price 50% and adding 25 cents .What must a tape's wholesale price be if the tape s

Andre45 [30]

Let's call the store value as s and the wholesale price as w. A store prices tapes by raising the wholesale price 50%(0.5 in decimals) and adding 25 cents, writing this as an equation, we have

$s(w)=w+0.5w+0.25$

If we invert the equation we're going to find the the wholesale price as a function of the store price.

$\begin{gathered} s=w+0.5w+0.25 \\ s=1.5w+0.25 \\ s-0.25=1.5w \\ w(s)=\frac{s-0.25}{1.5} \end{gathered}$

Now, to find the wholesale price if the sales price is $1.99, we just need to evaluate s = 1.99 on the function we created.

$w(1.99)=\frac{1.99-0.25}{1.5}=1.16$

The wholesale price is $1.16.

Two mechanics worked on the car the first mechanic work for five hours in a sec mechanic work for 15 hours together the tires a

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

Mechanic 1: $55 per hour

Mechanic 2: $105 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent the rate of the first mechanic with x and the second with y.

So, we have:

$x + y = 160$

The total earnings is: $1850, so we have:

$5x + 15y = 1850$

Required

Determine the rate of each

The equations are:

$x + y = 160$ --- (1)

$5x + 15y = 1850$ --- (2)

Divide (2) through by 5

$x + 3y = 370$ --- (3)

Subtract (1) from (3)

$x - x + 3y - y = 370 - 160$

$2y = 210$

Divide through by 2

$y = \frac{210}{2}$

$y = 105$

Substitute 105 for y in (1)

$x + y = 160$

Make x the subject

$x = 160 - y$

Substitute 105 for y

$x = 160 - 105$

$x = 55$

Hence:

Mechanic 1: $55 per hour

Mechanic 2: $105 per hour

Decide whether quadrilateral JKLM is a rectangle, a rhombus, or a square. More than one answer may apply!

NARA [144]

Answer:

Square.

Step-by-step explanation:

given J(-4,2) || K(0,3) || L(1,-1) || M(-3,-2)

given below the visual answer.

OR

you can find the distance of coordinate to coordinate:

Distance of JK

√(-4-0)² + (2-3)²

√17

Distance of KL

√(0-1)²+(3--1)²

√17

Distance of LM

√(1--3)²+(-1--2)²

√17

Distance of MJ

√(-3--4)²+(-2-2)²

√17

All sides are similar of √17 , so its a square.

How do i find the volume of these similar solids? round to the nearest tenth HELP

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

The volume of the larger solid is $592.6\ mm^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The question is</em></u>

If these solids are similar, find the volume of the larger solid

step 1

Find the scale factor

we know that

If two solids are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and this ratio is called the scale factor

Let

x ----> the height of the larger solid in mm

y ----> the height of the smaller solid in mm

z ---> the scale factor

$z=\frac{x}{y}$

we have

$x=4\ mm\\y=3\ mm$

substitute

$z=\frac{4}{3}$ ---> scale factor

step 2

Find the volume of the larger solid

we know that

If two solids are similar, then the ratio of its volumes is equal to the scale factor elevated to the cube

Let

x ----> the volume of the larger solid in cubic millimeters

y ----> the volume of the smaller solid in in cubic millimeters

z ---> the scale factor

$z^3=\frac{x}{y}$

we have

$z=\frac{4}{3}$

$y=250\ mm^3$

substitute the values

$(\frac{4}{3})^3=\frac{x}{250}$

solve for x

$(\frac{64}{27})=\frac{x}{250}$

$x=250(\frac{64}{27})$

$x=592.6\ mm^3$
