Expression that represents the sale price of the wedding dress is $s = 0.65w$

Solution:

Given that, the dress is on sale for 35 % off the regular price

Let the regular price of dress be "w"

To find: Expression that represents the sale price of the wedding dress

Let "s" be the sale price of wedding dress

Sale price = Regular price - discount price

Discount price is given as:

Discount price = 35 % of regular price

Discount price = 35 % of w

$\rightarrow 35 \% \times w\\\\\rightarrow \frac{35}{100} \times w\\\\\rightarrow 0.35w$

Thus discount price = 0.35w

Expression for the sale price of the wedding dress:

Sale price = Regular price - discount price

s = w - 0.35w

s = 0.65w

Thus expression that represents the sale price of the wedding dress is $s = 0.65w$

Architect Brian Peters spent 60% of a week's time working on drawings for a new apartment building. If Brian spent 18 hours work

Kipish [7]

Answer:

Brian Peters worked for total of 45 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of hours worked be 'x'.

Now Given:

Hours spent on other projects = 18 hours.

Also Given:

60% of a week's time working on drawings for a new apartment building.

Hours spent on new apartment building = $60\%\times x = \frac{60}{100}x=0.6x$

We need to find the total hours worked.

Solution:

Now we can say that;

total number of hours worked is equal to sum of Hours spent on new apartment building and Hours spent on other projects.

framing in equation form we get;

$x=0.6x+18$

Combining like terms we get;

$x-0.6x=18\\\\x(1-0.6)=18\\\\0.4x=18$

Now Dividing both side by 0.4 we get;

$\frac{0.4x}{0.4}=\frac{18}{0.4}\\\\x=45\ hrs$

Hence Brian Peters worked for total of 45 hours.

Evaluate F(1)

KonstantinChe [14]

ANSWER

B. 1

EXPLANATION

The given function is

$f(x) =\left \{ {{x^{2} +3 (if) -5 \leq x< 1} \atop {x (if) 1 \leq x \leq 5 }} \right.$

This is a piece-wise defined function.

We want to find f(1)

We substitute x=1 into f(x)=x because, 1 belongs to the interval,

1≤x≤5

f(1)=1

The correct answer is B.

a small plane lands at a point 324 miles east and 92 miles north of the point at which it took off. Find the distance the plane

Setler79 [48]

Answer: 336.80 miles, $15.85^{\circ}$ North of east

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Plane lands at a point 324 miles east and 92 miles north

Distance is given by using Pythagoras theorem

$\Rightarrow d=\sqrt{324^2+92^2}\\\\\Rightarrow d=\sqrt{113,440}\\\\\Rightarrow d=336.80\ \text{miles}$

Direction is given by using figure i.e.

$\Rightarrow \tan \theta=\dfrac{92}{324}\\\\\Rightarrow \tan \theta=0.2839\\\\\Rightarrow \theta=15.85^{\circ}$

Direction is $15.85^{\circ}$ North of east
