Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original price of A pair of skis be $100

discount given on A pair of skis = 20% on original price

discount value of A pair of skis in $ = 20% * $100

                   =  (20 * 100)/100 = $20

discounted price of A pair of skis =  original price - discount = 100 -20 = $80

in order to increase discounted price to original price of $100

there must be increase of $20 to discounted price which is $80

percentage increase on discounted price   to return to the original price =

(increased \ amount / discounted \ price) * 100 \\=>( 20/80) * 100 =  25\\

therefore 25% must be increase on discounted price to return to the original price

Slips of paper numbered 1 to 15 are placed in a box. A slip of paper is drawn at random. What is the probability that the number
monitta

Given:

Slips of paper numbered 1 to 15 are placed in a box.

To find:

The probability that the number picked is either a multiple of 5 or an odd number.

Solution:

We have,

Total outcomes = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15

No. of total outcomes = 15

Multiple of 5 are 5, 10, 15.

Odd numbers are 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15.

Number that are either a multiple of 5 or an odd number are 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 13, 15.

No. of favorable outcomes = 9

We know that,

\text{Probability}=\dfrac{\text{Favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}

\text{Probability}=\dfrac{9}{15}

\text{Probability}=\dfrac{3}{5}

\text{Probability}=0.6

Therefore, the  probability that the number picked is either a multiple of 5 or an odd number is 0.6.

A box with an open top will be constructed from a rectangular piece of cardboard. The piece of cardboard is 10 inches wide and 1
kupik [55]

Answer:

Domain of the function is  { x : x∈R, x>0 } or (0,∞).

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the dimensions of a rectangular piece of cardboard are

Length = 14 inch

Width = 10 inch

The box will be constructed by cutting out equal squares of side x at each corner and then folding up the sides. So the dimensions of the box are

Length = 14-2x inch

Breadth = 10- 2x inch

Height = x inch

The volume of cuboid box is

V=length\times breadth \times height

The volume function of the box is

V=(14-2x)\times (10-2x)\times x

V=(14-2x)(10-2x)x

The volume function is V=(14-2x)(10-2x)x.

It is a polynomial function and domain of a polynomial function is all real numbers.

Here, x represents the height of the box. So, value of x must be a positive real number.

Domain of the function is

Domain = { x : x∈R, x>0 }

It can be written as (0,∞).

Therefore, domain of the function is  { x : x∈R, x>0 } or (0,∞).
