Answer:

To know how much he bought it for, let's consider the actual amount it be x.

Step-by-step explanation:

10% of x + $585 = x

x/10 + $585 = x

$585 = x-x/10

$585= 9x/10

9x=$5850

x=$5850/9

x=$650

.: the actual price was $650.

mash [69]

Answer:

A. ​Yes, the table shows a probability distribution.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a probability distribution, none of the values can be negative or over 1.  Additionally, all of the values must sum to 1.

Our probabilities are:

0.087; 0.328; 0.416; and 0.169.  None of these are negative and none are over 1.

0.087+0.328+0.416+0.169 = 1.00; this means that this is a probability distribution.

nlexa [21]

Answer:

length = 4x

width = 3x

perimeter = 56 m

also, perimeter = 2 (length + width)      [from formula]

therefore, 2(4x + 3x) = 56m

2(7x) = 56m

14x = 56m

x = 56/14 m

x = 4m

How is 5/2 divided by 1/4 equals 10 responsible
vredina [299]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

'll just help with proving whether she is correct.

First of all, a fraction divided by a fraction can be made into multiplication since the division of two fractions is kinda difficult

so remember keep, change, flip

keep the first fractions, change the division symbol into multiplication, then flip the fraction i.e. 1/2 becomes 2/1

so 5/2 divided by 1/4 becomes  

5/2 * 4/1

which then solved becomes

20/2 which is simplified to 10

Hope this helps :)

At the school carnival, students are asked to guess the number of marbles in a jar to win a prize. There are 240 marbles in the
Lapatulllka [165]

There is 17% error in the guess.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Number of marbles in jar = Exact value = 240

Closest guess = Approx Value = 280

Percent error = \frac{|approx-exact}{exact}*100

Percent error = \frac{|280-240|}{240}*100\\

Percent error = \frac{|40|}{240}*100

Percent error = \frac{4000}{240}=16.67\%

Rounding off to nearest whole percent

Percent error = 17%

There is 17% error in the guess.
