Answer:the clothing store paid $97.6 for the jeans

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the price at which the clothing store bought the jeans from the manufacturer or the amount paid to the manufacturer.

The local clothing store marks up the price that it pays to the clothing manufacturer by 25%. This means that the selling price for a pair of jeans would be

(25/100 × x ) + x = 0.25x + x = 1.25x

If the selling price of a pair of jeans is $122, it means that

1.25x = 122

x = 122/1.25 = $97.6

A manufacturer produces a commodity where the length of the commodity has approximately normal distribution with a mean of 6.5 i
zavuch27 [327]

The probablity that the sample's mean length is greate than 6.3 inches is0.8446.

Given mean of 6.5 inches,standard deviation of 0.5 inches and sample size of 46.

We have to calculate the probability that the sample's mean length is greater than 6.3 inches is 0.8446.

Probability is the likeliness of happening an event. It lies between 0 and 1.

Probability is the number of items divided by the total number of items.

We have to use z statistic in this question because the sample size is greater than 30.

μ=6.5

σ=0.5

n=46

z=X-μ/σ

where μ is mean and

σ is standard deviation.

First we have to find the p value from 6.3 to 6.5 and then we have to add 0.5 to it to find the required probability.

z=6.3-6.5/0.5

=-0.2/0.5

=-0.4

p value from z table is 0.3446

Probability that the mean length is greater than 6.3inches is 0.3446+0.5=0.8446.

Hence the probability that the mean length is greater than 6.3 inches is 0.8446.

Find dy/dt for the equation below.<br><br> 7x^3+2xy+3y^3=3
castortr0y [4]

dy/dt is -\frac{(21x^2+2y)\frac{dx}{dt}}{2x+9y^2}

What is differentiation?

Differentiation is a method of finding the derivative of a function. Differentiation is a process, in mathematics, where we find the instantaneous rate of change in function based on one of its variables. The most common example is the rate change of displacement with respect to time, called velocity.

We can find the dy/dx as shown below:

7x^3+2xy+3y^3=3

differentiating with respect to t.

7\frac{d(x^3)}{dt} +2\frac{d(xy)}{dt}+3\frac{y^3}{dt}=0

7\frac{3x^2dx}{dt}+2y\frac{dx}{dt}+2x\frac{dy}{dt}+3\frac{3y^2dy}{dt}=0

21\frac{x^2dx}{dt}+2y\frac{dx}{dt}+2x\frac{dy}{dt}+9\frac{y^2dy}{dt}=0

(21x^2+2y)\frac{dx}{dt}+(2x+9y^2)\frac{dy}{dt}=0

(21x^2+2y)\frac{dx}{dt}=-(2x+9y^2)\frac{dy}{dt}

-\frac{(21x^2+2y)\frac{dx}{dt}}{2x+9y^2}=\frac{dy}{dt}

\frac{dy}{dt}=-\frac{(21x^2+2y)\frac{dx}{dt}}{2x+9y^2}

Hence, dy/dt is -\frac{(21x^2+2y)\frac{dx}{dt}}{2x+9y^2}
