Scott made 3 identical necklaces, each having beads and a pendant. The total cost of the beads and pendants for all 3 necklaces

was $14.40.If the beads cost a total of $5.70, how much did each pendant cost?

Answer:

$2.90

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Lets look at the information given:</u>

Scott made 3 necklaces

$14.40 is the cost for both the beads and pendants for all 3 necklaces

$5.70 was the cost of just beads for all 3 necklaces

Each necklace has 1 pendant

The first step to solving this equation is subtracting the cost of the beads from the total cost for the necklaces:

$14.40 - $5.70= $8.70

Now we know that cost for the 3 pendants for all 3 necklaces was $8.70, but we need to find how much EACH pendant costs. To find out, we simply divide the total cost for all 3 pendants by 3:

$8.70 ÷ 3 = $2.90

So each pendent costs $2.90

For each Y value to have more than one x value would be a linear function.

1)The price of a pair of boot was reduced from $80 to $60. By what percentage

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

1) 25%

2) $17.54

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The boots were reduced from $80 to $60, therefore the total amount they were reduced by in terms of money is $20. To find out what percentage $20 is of $80, you divide.

20/80 = 0.25

0.25 = 25 % (to change a decimal to a percentage, you multiply by 100)

2) 20% = 0.20 (to change a percentage to a decimal, you divide by 100)

To find 20% of $87.70, multiply 0.20 by 87.70.

87.70 x 0.20 = 17.54

Change each of the following points from rectangular coordinates to spherical coordinates and to cylindrical coordinates.

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation: Spherical coordinate describes a location of a point in space: one distance (ρ) and two angles (Ф,θ).To transform cartesian coordinates into spherical coordinates:

$\rho = \sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}+z^{2}}$

$\phi = cos^{-1}\frac{z}{\rho}$

For angle θ:

If x > 0 and y > 0: $\theta = tan^{-1}\frac{y}{x}$ ;

If x < 0: $\theta = \pi + tan^{-1}\frac{y}{x}$ ;
If x > 0 and y < 0: $\theta = 2\pi + tan^{-1}\frac{y}{x}$ ;

Calculating:

a) (4,2,-4)

$\rho = \sqrt{4^{2}+2^{2}+(-4)^{2}}$ = 6

$\phi = cos^{-1}(\frac{-4}{6})$

$\phi = cos^{-1}(\frac{-2}{3})$

For θ, choose 1st option:

$\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{2}{4})$

$\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{1}{2})$

b) (0,8,15)

$\rho = \sqrt{0^{2}+8^{2}+(15)^{2}}$ = 17

$\phi = cos^{-1}(\frac{15}{17})$

$\theta = tan^{-1}\frac{y}{x}$

The angle θ gives a tangent that doesn't exist. Analysing table of sine, cosine and tangent: θ = $\frac{\pi}{2}$

c) (√2,1,1)

$\rho = \sqrt{(\sqrt{2} )^{2}+1^{2}+1^{2}}$ = 2

$\phi = cos^{-1}(\frac{1}{2})$

$\phi$ = $\frac{\pi}{3}$

$\theta = tan^{-1}\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }$

d) (−2√3,−2,3)

$\rho = \sqrt{(-2\sqrt{3} )^{2}+(-2)^{2}+3^{2}}$ = 5

$\phi = cos^{-1}(\frac{3}{5})$

Since x < 0, use 2nd option:

$\theta = \pi + tan^{-1}\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} }$

$\theta = \pi + \frac{\pi}{6}$

$\theta = \frac{7\pi}{6}$

Cilindrical coordinate describes a 3 dimension space: 2 distances (r and z) and 1 angle (θ). To express cartesian coordinates into cilindrical:

$r=\sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}}$

Angle θ is the same as spherical coordinate;

z = z

Calculating:

a) (4,2,-4)

$r=\sqrt{4^{2}+2^{2}}$ = $\sqrt{20}$

$\theta = tan^{-1}\frac{1}{2}$

z = -4

b) (0, 8, 15)

$r=\sqrt{0^{2}+8^{2}}$ = 8

$\theta = \frac{\pi}{2}$

z = 15

c) (√2,1,1)

$r=\sqrt{(\sqrt{2} )^{2}+1^{2}}$ = $\sqrt{3}$

$\theta = \frac{\pi}{3}$

z = 1

d) (−2√3,−2,3)

$r=\sqrt{(-2\sqrt{3} )^{2}+(-2)^{2}}$ = 4

$\theta = \frac{7\pi}{6}$

z = 3
