Answer: A is 36.82%. B is 35.5%

Step-by-step explanation: For manufacturer A 22/19 chian discount simply means 22% discount followed by 19% discount.

Therefore we have 100-22= 78 and 100-19=81.

The final price would be 0.78*0.81=0.6318

Therefore discount would be

1 - 0.6318=0.3682

Hence, percentage discount would be 0.3682*100%=36.82%.

For manufacturer B 25/14 chian discount means 25% discount followed by 14% discount. So we have 100-25=75% and 100-14= 86%

Final price would be 0.86*.75=0.645.

Discount= 1 - 0.645= 0.355.

Percentage discount would be 0.355*100%=35.5%.

The perimeter of a rectangle is found by using the formula P = 2l + 2w, where P is the perimeter, l is the length and w is the w
velikii [3]

Answer:

#1: 11 cm

#2: 16.5 in

#3: 2.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

#1

P=2l+2w Solve for width by substracting 2l on both sides to isolate 2w

P-2l=2w

or

2w=P-2l

Replace.

2w=26-2(2)\\2w=26-4\\2w=22\\w=\frac{22}{2}\\ w=11cm

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

#2

P=2l+2w

P=2(3.5)+2(4.75)\\P =7+9.5\\P=16.5in

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

#3

P=2l+2w

Solve for l

2l=P-2w\\2l=7-2(1)\\2l=7-2\\2l=5\\l=\frac{5}{2}\\ l=2.5feet

A traveling soccer team allows only the top 3% of athletes who try out to be part of the team. If the team tryout scorecard has
skad [1K]

Answer:

169

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to use a Z-table for this.

There are different tables, in this table i searched for the probability of 97% because that equivalent to the top 3%.

for 0.97, Z = 1.88

The formula of Z is:

Z = (x-mean)/(st. dev.)

Solving x:

1.88 = (x-150)/10 \\x = 168.8 = 169

What is different between solving inequalities and absolute value inequalities?
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

The absolute number of a number a is written as

|a|

And represents the distance between a and 0 on a number line.

An absolute value equation is an equation that contains an absolute value expression. The equation

|x|=a

Has two solutions x = a and x = -a because both numbers are at the distance a from 0.

To solve an absolute value equation as

|x+7|=14

You begin by making it into two separate equations and then solving them separately.

x+7=14

x+7−7=14−7

x=7

or

x+7=−14

x+7−7=−14−7

x=−21

An absolute value equation has no solution if the absolute value expression equals a negative number since an absolute value can never be negative.

The inequality

|x|<2

Represents the distance between x and 0 that is less than 2

Whereas the inequality

|x|>2

Represents the distance between x and 0 that is greater than 2

You can write an absolute value inequality as a compound inequality.

−2<x<2

This holds true for all absolute value inequalities.

|ax+b|<c,wherec>0

=−c<ax+b<c

|ax+b|>c,wherec>0

=ax+b<−corax+b>c

You can replace > above with ≥ and < with ≤.

When solving an absolute value inequality it's necessary to first isolate the absolute value expression on one side of the inequality before solving the inequality.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps :)
