Answer:

Percent increase is 17.6%

We still have to pay 7.50 with the coupon

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent increase = (new- original)/original *100%

                             = (10-8.5)/8.5 * 100%

                             = 1.5/8.5 * 100%

                             = 17.6470588%

Round to the nearest tenth

                                 17.6%

This is an increase since the cost went up.

If we have 25% off, we still have to pay (100%-25%) = 75%

10 *.75 = 7.50

We still have to pay 7.50 with the coupon

Kay [80]

Answer: 7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are told that Chelsea plays soccer 4/12 of the year and swims 3/12 of the year before taking a break from playing sports.

The fraction of the year that Chelsea spend participating in sports will be the addition of the fraction used for playing soccer and the fraction use for swimming. This will be:

= 4/12 + 3/12

= 7/12

Suppose that the number of pounds of grapes sold by the Smalltown Co-op grocery store in a day is equally likely to be anywhere
Alex

Answer:

The height of the function for any number of pounds between 0 and 100 is 0.01.

Step-by-step explanation:

As described, the probability density function is a uniform probability density function, between the values 0 and 100 pounds.

To calculate the height h of the probability density function, we can write:

\int\limits^{100}_0 {h} \, dx=1

If we solved this integration and rearrange

\int\limits^{100}_0 {h} \, dx=1\\h*(100-0)=1\\100*h=1\\h=0.01

The value of the height of the probability density function is 0.01 for every value between 0 and 100 pounds.

What is the value of the discriminant for the quadratic equation 0 = x + 2 + x^2?
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

The discriminant of the quadratic equation is -7.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following quadratic equation in the question:

x^2+x+2 = 0

Comparing to general quadratic equation:

ax^2+bx+c = 0\\a = 1\\b = 1\\c = 2

We have to find the discriminant of the quadratic equation.

Formula:

d = b^2-4ac

Putting values, we get,

d = (1)^2 - 4(1)(2) = 1 - 8 = -7

Thus, the discriminant of the quadratic equation is -7.

Select the correct answer. Which expression represents the series ? 1+5+25+125+625? creating and solving formulas for geometric
Art [367]

Answer:

The given series can be written as

4

∑  (5)^i

i = 0

We know that the series  is

1+5+25+125+625

This is equal to

(5)^0 + (5)^1 + (5)^2 + (5)^3 + (5)^4

Thus,

For i from 0 to 4,

We get the general representation.
