<u>Answer</u>

c. buying it at a 10 percent discount without sales tax.


<u>Explanation</u>

We are going to compare the 3 choices and then determine the most cost effective.

<em>a. using a paid membership card to buy it at a 10 percent discount.</em>

10% of $100 = 10/100×100 = $10

cost = $100 - $10 = $90

On top of this $90 there is the charges of the membership card.

<em> b. buying it online at a 10 percent discount with a $5 shipping charge.</em>

100%-10% = 90%

90% of 100 = $90

Cost: $90 + $5 = $95

<em>c. buying it at a 10 percent discount without sales tax.</em>

100% - 10% = 90%

90/100 × 100 = $90. This is the must cost effective method since there is no other cost involved.

What are the coordinates of the point obtained if the point A=(3,7) is rotated 180 degrees about the origin?
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

B. (-3, -7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Anytime you rotate a number 180° about the origin, the numbers in the coordinates become their opposites.

-3 is the opposite of 3 and -7 is the opposite of 7.

Therefore, your new coordinates are (-3, -7)

(x,y) becomes (-x,-y)

When a deposit of $1000 is made into an account paying 2% interest, compounded annually, the balance, $B, in the account after t
labwork [276]

Answer:

The average rate of change in the balance over the interval t = 0 to t = 5 is of $20.82 a year. This means that the balance increased by $20.82 a year over the interval t = 0 to t = 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a function y, the average rate of change S of y=f(x) in an interval (x_{s}, x_{f}) will be given by the following equation:

S = \frac{f(x_{f}) - f(x_{s})}{x_{f} - x_{s}}

In this problem, we have that:

B(t) = 1000(1.02)^{t}

Find the average rate of change in the balance over the interval t = 0 to t = 5.

B(0) = 1000(1.02)^{0} = 1000

B(5) = 1000(1.02)^{5} = 1104.08

Then

S = \frac{1104.08 - 1000}{5-0} = 20.82

The average rate of change in the balance over the interval t = 0 to t = 5 is of $20.82 a year. This means that the balance increased by $20.82 a year over the interval t = 0 to t = 5.

We factor the equation to get:

-(x-25)^2+361

In the form a(x-h)^2+k, the vertex is (h, k), so the vertex is (25, 361).  This means that the studio makes the most profit from selling 25 memberships, and thus makes 361 dollars.

B.  The x-intercepts are the values of x for which f(x) is 0.  This equation can be factored as (-a+6)(a-44)=0, with solutions 6 and 44.  Therefore, by selling either 6 memberships or 44 memberships, the studio breaks even, neither making nor losing money.
