An item, x, is marked up 40% and now costs $49.99
40% is 0.40
1 times any number will be the same number so we'll use that to add on the original price to the amount of increase
(1+0.40)x=49.99
x=49.99/1.4
x=35.71 so D is the answer

A rectangle has a length 10 more than its width. If the width is increased by 8 and the length by 4, the resulting rectangle has
Aleks [24]

The Solution to the problem of the rectangle is given below

For Part A:

  • equation model: (14 + w) * (w +8) = 132
  • Length = 15

For Part B

  • Perimeter = 46

Meaning of Perimeter

The perimeter of any shape can be defined as the total sum of the sides of the shape.

<h3>Analysis</h3>

For Part A

equation model= (14 + w) * (w +8) = 135

14w + 112 + 8w + w^{2} = 135

w^{2} + 22w - 23 = 0

solving the quadratic equation

w = -23 or 1

Because we are dealing with a physical quantity we will make use of the value 1

lenght of original rectangle = 10 + 1 = 11

Part B

Perimeter= 2(length) * 2 (breadth) = 2(11 + 4) * 2 (1 + 8)

Perimeter = 48

In conclusion, The Solution to the problem of the rectangle is given above.

A. For what values of k does the function y = cos(kt) satisfy the differential equation 25y'' = −16y?
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given y = coskt

y' = -ksinkt

y'' = -k²coskt

Substitute this y'' into the expression 25y'' = −16y

25(-k²coskt) = -16(coskt)

25k²coskt = 16(coskt)

25k² = 16

k² = 16/25

k = ±√16/25

k = ±4/5

b) from the DE 25y'' = −16y

Rearrange

25y''+16y = 0

Expressing using auxiliary equation

25m² + 16 = 0

25m² = -16

m² = -16/25

m = ±4/5 I

m = 0+4/5 I

Since the auxiliary root is complex number

The solution to the DE will be expressed as;

y = Asinmt + Bsinmt

Since k = m

y = Asinkt+Bsinkt where A and B are constants

Joe has eaten 2/5 of a pizza. Jane has eaten 1/3 of a pizza. How many times more pizza has joe eaten than jane?
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

3.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 2/5 by 1/9 which is the same as multiplying 2/5 by 9/1

 

we then get 18/5 = 3.6

 

So, Joe has eaten 3.6 times more pizza than Jane

Hope that is the right answer !?

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

b. Because the probability of being 15 or more correct is 0.0207, it is likely that she is just guessing at the questions.

Step-by-step explanation:

-This is a binomial probability distribution with p=0.5, n=20 and x=15.

The function is expressed as:

P(X=x)={n\choose x}p^x(1-p)^{n-x}

We calculate the probability of guessing 15 or more correctly:

P(X\geq 15)=1-P(X

The probability of passing, guessing 15+ correctly, is 0.0207. This probability is very low and it is  it is likely that she is just guessing at the questions
