So what you want to find is: what number times 120% is $324.00. (IT is 120% percent because it is the original <em>plus</em> the new percent) Simply set it up like so:

SN *120% = $324.00

Now turn the percent into a decimal:

SN * 1.20 = $324.00

Now divide $324.00 by 1.20

SN = $270

The original value of the basketball player's autograph was 270 dollars!

Hope that helps!

If 6 is added to three quarters of a certain number, the result is 42 . Find the original number​
Basile [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation

Hello!

3x/4 + 6=42

3x/4=42-6 = 36

3x = 36*4

3x = 144

x= 144/3 =48

3/4 of  48  = (48*3)  / 4 =36

36+6=42

the original number​ is 48

What is the value of 106 ?
Artemon [7]
Is that meant to be 10 to the power of 6?
Assuming it is it would be 10×10×10×10×10×10.
This equals 1,000,000 so the answer is C.

I need help with this. Thanks <br><br><br> I need to find the degree
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

  119.05°

Step-by-step explanation:

In general, the angle is given by ...

  θ = arctan(y/x)

Here, that becomes ...

  θ = arctan(9/-5) ≈ 119.05°

_____

<em>Comment on using a calculator</em>

If you use the ATAN2( ) function of a graphing calculator or spreadsheet, it will give you the angle in the proper quadrant. If you use the arctangent function (tan⁻¹) of a typical scientific calculator, it will give you a 4th-quadrant angle when the ratio is negative. You must recognize that the desired 2nd-quadrant angle is 180° more than that.

__

It may help you to consider looking at the "reference angle." In this geometry, it is the angle between the vector v and the -x axis. The coordinates tell you the lengths of the sides of the triangle vector v forms with the -x axis and a vertical line from that axis to the tip of the vector. Then the trig ratio you're interested in is ...

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent = |y|/|x|

This is the tangent of the reference angle, which will be ...

  θ = arctan(|y| / |x|) = arctan(9/5) ≈ 60.95°

You can see from your diagram that the angle CCW from the +x axis will be the supplement of this value, 180° -60.95° = 119.05°.

A detergent company periodically tests its products for variations in the fill weight. To do this, the company uses x-bar and R
maw [93]

Answer:

10.9361

Step-by-step explanation:

The lower control limit for xbar chart is

xdoublebar-A2(Rbar)

We are given that A2=0.308.

xdoublebar=sumxbar/k

Rbar=sumR/k

xbar      R

5.8        0.42

6.1         0.38

16.02    0.08

15.95    0.15

16.12     0.42

6.18      0.23

5.87     0.36

16.2      0.4

Xdoublebar=(5.8+6.1+16.02+15.95+16.12+6.18+5.87+16.2)/8

Xdoublebar=88.24/8

Xdoublebar=11.03

Rbar=(0.42+0.38+0.08+0.15+0.42+0.23+0.36+0.4)/8

Rbar=2.44/8

Rbar=0.305

The lower control limit for the x-bar chart is

LCL=xdoublebar-A2(Rbar)

LCL=11.03-0.308*0.305

LCL=11.03-0.0939

LCL=10.9361
