x equals negative 8 and negative 4
Answer: Yes. There there been a significant shift upward in the percentage of persons who want to go to Asia.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the information given in the question, past experience at the Pasadena Travel Agency shows that 44% of people who came to plan a vacation with the agency wanted to go to Asia.
During the most recent busy season, a sampling of 1,000 plans was selected at random from the files. It was found that 480 persons wanted to go to Asia on vacation. The percentage of people who want to go to Asia now will be:
= 480/1000 × 100
= 48%
Therefore, there has been a significant shift upward in the percentage of persons who want to go to Asia.
The formula for depreciation is:
Where x = Initial value,
y= Amount after depreciation.
r= Rate of depreciation,
t = time (in years)
According to given problem,
x = 1040, y= 944 and t = 12 months =1 year.
So, first step is to plug in these values in the above formula, So,
944 = 1040 (1 -r)
Divide each sides by 1040.
0.907692308 =1 - r
0.907692308 - 1 = -r Subtract 1 from each sides.
-0.092307692 = -r
So, r = 0.09 or 9%.
Now plug in 0.09 in the above equation to get the depreciation equation. So,
So, 
b) To find the value of the bike after 5 months,
plug in t = 5 months= 5/12 = 0.41667 years in the above equation of depreciation.
So, 
y = 1040 * 0.961465659
y = 999.9242852
y = 1000 (Rounded to nearest integer).
Hence, the value of the bike after 5 months is $1000.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
10) The opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal. It means that
a + 15 = 3a + 11
3a - a = 15 - 11
2a = 4
a = 4/2 = 2
Also,
3b + 5 = b + 11
3b - b = 11 - 5
2b = 4
b = 4/2 = 2
11) The opposite angles of a parallelogram are congruent and the adjacent angles are supplementary. This means that
2x + 11 + x - 5 = 180
3x + 6 = 180
3x = 180 - 6 = 174
x = 174/3 = 58
Therefore,
2x + 11 = 2×58 + 11 = 127 degrees
The opposite angles of a parallelogram are congruent, therefore,
2y = 127
y = 127/2 = 63.5
12) The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other. This means that each diagonal is divided equally at the midpoint. Therefore
3y - 5 = y + 5
3y - y = 5 + 5
2y = 10
y = 10/2 = 5
Also,
z + 9 = 2z + 7
2z - z = 9 - 7
z = 2
So do
25x16=400
this shows how many raffle tickets were sold all together
Then do 400x$15 =$6000
So all together they raised $6000
