Answer:

The original price is $60.00

Step-by-step explanation:

A store has a 40% off sale on headphones.

After discount the price of one pair of headphones = $36.00

Let the original price of the pair of headphones be x

after 40% discount the value of headphone left = 60%

so, 60% of x = $36.00

= x = 36.00 ÷ 0.60 = $60.00

The original price of the pair of headphones is $60.00.

$90 because you take the discounted price then divide it by .40 (40%)

Here is a system of equations. (y=x-6 y=-x-2 Graph the system. Then write its solution. Note that you can also answer "No soluti

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

Example system with no solution

We're asked to find the number of solutions to this system of equations:

\begin{aligned} y &= -3x+9\\\\ y &= -3x-7 \end{aligned}

=−3x+9

=−3x−7

Without graphing these equations, we can observe that they both have a slope of -3−3minus, 3. This means that the lines must be parallel. And since the yyy-intercepts are different, we know the lines are not on top of each other.

There is no solution to this system of equations.

Example system with infinite solutions

We're asked to find the number of solutions to this system of equations:

\begin{aligned} -6x+4y &= 2\\\\ 3x-2y &= -1 \end{aligned}

−6x+4y

3x−2y

=−1

Interestingly, if we multiply the second equation by -2−2minus, 2, we get the first equation:

\begin{aligned} 3x-2y &= -1\\\\ \blueD{-2}(3x-2y)&=\blueD{-2}(-1)\\\\ -6x+4y &= 2 \end{aligned}

3x−2y

−2(3x−2y)

−6x+4y

=−1

=−2(−1)

In other words, the equations are equivalent and share the same graph. Any solution that works for one equation will also work for the other equation, so there are infinite solutions to the system.

The points J, K, L and M all lie on the same line segment, in that order, such that the ratio of JK:KL:LMJK:KL:LM is equal to 1:

RideAnS [48]

Answer: JL = 25

Step-by-step explanation: Segment JM is the total measure of the line segment and it equals 45.

Suppose first segment JK measures d.

The total ratio is the sum of each part

d + 4d + 4d = 9d

The sum of each part corresponds to the total measure of the line segment. Then:

9d = 45

d = 5

Segment JL is

JL = d + 4d

JL = 5d

JL = 5.5

JL = 25

Segment JL measures 25 units.

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

$\mu_p -\sigma_p = 0.74-0.0219=0.718$

$\mu_p +\sigma_p = 0.74+0.0219=0.762$

68% of the rates are expected to be betwen 0.718 and 0.762

$\mu_p -2*\sigma_p = 0.74-2*0.0219=0.696$

$\mu_p +2*\sigma_p = 0.74+2*0.0219=0.784$

95% of the rates are expected to be betwen 0.696 and 0.784

$\mu_p -3*\sigma_p = 0.74-3*0.0219=0.674$

$\mu_p +3*\sigma_p = 0.74+3*0.0219=0.806$

99.7% of the rates are expected to be betwen 0.674 and 0.806

Step-by-step explanation:

Check for conditions

For this case in order to use the normal distribution for this case or the 68-95-99.7% rule we need to satisfy 3 conditions:

a) Independence : we assume that the random sample of 400 students each student is independent from the other.

b) 10% condition: We assume that the sample size on this case 400 is less than 10% of the real population size.

c) np= 400*0.74= 296>10

n(1-p) = 400*(1-0.74)=104>10

So then we have all the conditions satisfied.

Solution to the problem

For this case we know that the distribution for the population proportion is given by:

$p \sim N(p, \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})$

So then:

$\mu_p = 0.74$

$\sigma_p =\sqrt{\frac{0.74(1-0.74)}{400}}=0.0219$

The empirical rule, also referred to as the three-sigma rule or 68-95-99.7 rule, is a statistical rule which states that for a normal distribution, almost all data falls within three standard deviations (denoted by σ) of the mean (denoted by µ). Broken down, the empirical rule shows that 68% falls within the first standard deviation (µ ± σ), 95% within the first two standard deviations (µ ± 2σ), and 99.7% within the first three standard deviations (µ ± 3σ).

$\mu_p -\sigma_p = 0.74-0.0219=0.718$

$\mu_p +\sigma_p = 0.74+0.0219=0.762$

68% of the rates are expected to be betwen 0.718 and 0.762

$\mu_p -2*\sigma_p = 0.74-2*0.0219=0.696$

$\mu_p +2*\sigma_p = 0.74+2*0.0219=0.784$

95% of the rates are expected to be betwen 0.696 and 0.784

$\mu_p -3*\sigma_p = 0.74-3*0.0219=0.674$

$\mu_p +3*\sigma_p = 0.74+3*0.0219=0.806$

99.7% of the rates are expected to be betwen 0.674 and 0.806
