Answer: 40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A pair of snow boots at an equipment store in big bear that originally cost $60 is on sale for $36.

The discount amount = Original cost - Sale cost

= $60-$36=$24

Now, the rate of discount is given by :-

\text{Rate of discount }=\dfrac{\text{Discount}}{\text{Original cost}}\times100\\\\=\dfrac{24}{60}\times100\\\\=40\%

Hence, the rate of discount= 40%

The answer is a 40% discount because it costs $24 less than the original price and 24 divided by 60 is .4 or 40%!

The areas of the two watch faces have a ratio of 16:25 What is the ratio of the radius of the smaller watch face to the radius o
Leona [35]

Answer:

The ratio of the radius of the smaller watch face to the radius of the larger watch face is 4:5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the Area of smaller watch face be A_1

Also Let the Area of Larger watch face be A_2

Also Let the radius of smaller watch face be r_1

Also Let the radius of Larger watch face be r_2

Now given:

\frac{A_1}{A_2} =\frac{16}{25}

We need to find the ratio of the radius of the smaller watch face to the radius of the larger watch face.

Solution:

Since the watch face is in circular form.

Then we can say that;

Area of the circle is equal 'π' times square of the radius 'r'.

framing in equation form we get;

A_1 = \pi {r_1}^2

A_2 = \pi {r_2}^2

So we get;

\frac{A_1}{A_2}= \frac{\pi {r_1}^2}{\pi {r_2}^2}

Substituting the value we get;

\frac{16}{25}= \frac{\pi {r_1}^2}{\pi {r_2}^2}

Now 'π' from numerator and denominator gets cancelled.

\frac{16}{25}= \frac{{r_1}^2}{{r_2}^2}

Now Taking square roots on both side we get;

\sqrt{\frac{16}{25}}= \sqrt{\frac{{r_1}^2}{{r_2}^2}}\\\\\frac{4}{5}= \frac{r_1}{r_2}

Hence the ratio of the radius of the smaller watch face to the radius of the larger watch face is 4:5.

What is the solution to the system of equations? 3x-6y=-12 " " x-2y=10 Use the substitution method to justify that the given sys
Thepotemich [5.8K]

The two lines in this system of equations are parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise the relation between 2 lines

  • If the system of linear equations has one solution, then the two line are intersected
  • If the system of linear equations has no solution, then the two line are parallel
  • If the system of linear equations has many solutions, then the two line are coincide (over each other)

∵ The system of equation is

3x - 6y = -12 ⇒ (1)

x - 2y = 10 ⇒ (2)

To solve the system using the substitution method, find x in terms of y in equation (2)

∵ x - 2y = 10

- Add 2y to both sides

∴ x = 2y + 10 ⇒ (3)

Substitute x in equation (1) by equation (3)

∵ 3(2y + 10) - 6y = -12

- Simplify the left hand side

∴ 6y + 30 - 6y = -12

- Add like terms in the left hand side

∴ 30 = -12

∴ The left hand side ≠ the right hand side

∴ There is no solution for the system of equations

∴ The system of equations represents two parallel lines

The two lines in this system of equations are parallel

Answer:

Answer is option b)

<em>Answer is </em><em>given below with explanations</em><em>. </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

a \: walking \: path \: is \: represented \: by \:  \\ y =  - 4x - 6 \\ 4x + y + 6 = 0 \\ given \: that \\ a \: new \: path \: will \: be \: built \: perpendicular  \\ \: to \:  \: the \: walking \: path \\ the \: equation \: of \: the \: line \: perpendicular \: to \\ 4x + y + 6 = 0 \: is \\ x - 4y + k = 0 \\ since \: it \: passes \: through \: ( - 4,10) \\ substitute \: x \:  =  - 4\: and \: y = 10 \: in \: required \: equation \\  - 4 - 4(10) + k = 0 \\ k = 44 \\ then \: the \: equation \: is \\ x - 4y + 44 = 0 \\ adding \: 4y \: on \: both \: sides \\ x + 44 = 4y \\ dividing \: by \: 4 \: on \: both \: sides \\ y =  \frac{x}{4}  + 11 \\ y =  \frac{1}{4} x + 11 \\ so \: the \: answer \: is \: option \: b) \:   \frac{1}{4} x + 11
