Answer:

The sales price is $608.

Step-by-step explanation:

Being on sale for 24% off means that the sales price is 100-24 = 76% of the original price.

This can be solved by a rule of three.

The original price is 800

$800 - 1

$x - 0.76

$x = 0.76*800 = 608$

The sales price is $608.

24% = 0.24

multiply that by the price:

800 * 0.24 = 192 ( discount)

800-192 = $608 sale price

The decreasing population, p, of owls in a national park is being monitored by ecologists and is modeled by the equation p=−0.

n200080 [17]

By solving a quadratic equation, it can be verified that

The owl population will disappear after 329.12 years

What is a quadratic equation?

At first it is important to know about equation

Equation shows the equality between two algebraic expressions by connecting the two algebraic expressions by an equal to sign.

A two degree equation is known as quadratic equation.

Here, a quadratic equation needs to be solved

The decreasing population, p, of owls in a national park is being monitored by ecologists and is modeled by the equation p= $-0. 4t^2+128t+1,200$

For population to disappear, p =0

$-0. 4t^2+128t+1,200 = 0\\0.4t^2 -128t - 1200 = 0\\4t^2 - 1280t - 12000 = 0\\4(t^2 - 320 t - 3000) = 0\\t^2 - 320t -3000 = 0\\t = \frac{-(-320)\pm \sqrt{(-320)^2 - 4 \times 1 \times (-3000)}}{2 \times 1}\\t = \frac{320 \pm 338.23}{2}\\t = \frac{320 + 338.23}{2} \ or \ t = \frac{320 - 338.23}{2}\\t = 329.115 \ or \ t = -9.115$

But t = -9.115 is not possible as time cannot be negative

So, the owl population will disappear after 329.12 years

Maria needs 3 1/3 yards of fabric to make a baby quilt, how many yards of fabric will she need to make 8 quilts

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

26 2/3 yards,

Step-by-step explanation:

First convert 3 1/3 to an improper fraction:

3 1/3 = (3*3 + 1) / 3 = 10 /3.

So for 8 quilts we need (10/3) * 8

= 80/3

= 26 2/3 yards,

Given sin b = .88 find angle b in radians

Rama09 [41]

$sin^{-1}0.88=61.642\ degrees$
There are pi radians in 180 degrees. Therefore to convert degrees to radians we need to divide by 180 and multiply by pi, as follows:
$\frac{61.642}{180}\times \pi=1.076\ radians$
