<u>Solution-</u>

Zachary purchased a computer for 1800 on a payment plan. (Initial Money)

3 months after he bought the computer, his balance was 1350. (Money after 3 months)

Total money paid in 3 months = 1800-1350 = 450

Money paid per month = 450/3 = 150

5 months after he bought the computer, his balance was 1050.

Total spent = 1800-1050 = 750 = (5× 150)

So the equation that models the balance b after m months,

b = 1800 - m(150)

∴ Here, the slope signifies the constant monthly deduction of $150.

Step-by-step explanation:

Q1. if a counting number is selected at random from a set of whole number less than or equal to 20 find the probability of getting:

Counting numbers are Natural numbers: $\mathbb{N}$

Also, we have Whole numbers. Despite not having an official symbol, I usually denote the set as $\mathbb{Z}_{\ge 0}$

<u>Whole numbers less than or equal to 20</u>: $A\leq 20, A \subset \mathbb{Z}_{\ge 0} \\\implies A=\{0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20\}$

<u>A. Prime numbers</u>

From the set A, the prime numbers are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19.

Once we have 21 numbers in total and 8 prime numbers, the probability is:

$P=\frac{8}{21} \approx 40\%$

<u>B. Composite numbers</u>

From the set A, the composite numbers are 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 18, 20.

Once we have 21 numbers in total and 11 composite numbers, the probability is:

$P=\frac{11}{21} \approx 52\%$

<u>C. Divisible by three</u>

From the set A, the numbers divisible by three are 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18.

Once we have 21 numbers in total and 6 numbers divisible by three, the probability is:

$P=\frac{6}{21} \approx 30\%$

<u>D. Square of 2</u>

From the set A, the numbers square of 2 are 0, 1, 4, 9, 16.

$\sqrt{0} =0$

$\sqrt{1} =1$

$\sqrt{4} =2$

$\sqrt{9} =3$

$\sqrt{16} =4$

Once we have 21 numbers in total and 5 numbers square of 2 , the probability is:

$P=\frac{5}{21} \approx 24\%$

Q2. The opposite angle of acyclic quadrilaterals is in the ratio of 2:3. Find the degree measure of each opposite angle?

Once they're opposite, they add up to 180º

$2x+3x=180 \implies 5x=180 \implies x=36$

The first angle is 72º

The second angle is 108º

Q3. what is the solution set of 9x-4<13x-7 (domain, x e z) ?

$x \in \mathbb{Z}\\$

$x>\frac{3}{4}$

$x\in \left(\frac{3}{4},\infty \right)$

Q4. if three fourth of a number is one tenths, what is the number?

$\frac{3}{4} x =\frac{1}{10} \implies 3x=\frac{4}{10} \implies \boxed{x = \frac{2}{15}}$

Q5. which one is the equation of the line passing through the origin and having a slope 4?

$y=mx+b$

$m: \text{slope}$

$b: \text{y-intercept}$

B. Y= 4x

Total Price: The sales tax rate is 5%. If the sales tax on a 10-speed bicycle is $9, what is the purchase price?

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

The purchase price is $180

The total price is: $189

Step-by-step explanation:

Sales tax rate = 5\%

Sales tax on bike = $9

We need to find the purchase price.

Let purchase price = x

We know that Sales tax = 5% of x

and Total price = Purchase Price + Sales tax

So, we can write:

Sales tax = 5% of x

Putting values and finding x

$9 =5\% \:of\: x\\9=\frac{5}{100}\:of\:x \\x= \frac{9*100}{5}\\x=180$

So, the value of x i.e Purchase price = $180

The purchase price is $180

Now finding the total price of bicycle

Total price = Purchase Price + Sales tax

Total price = 180 + 9

Total price = $189

So, The total price is: $189

A circle with area 3/2pi and central angle of 60 degrees. What is the area of the circle

Anika [276]

Answer:

28.28(simplified from 28.2743338834)

Step-by-step explanation:

area of sector= (center angle/360)*area of circle

we are already given the area of sector as 3/2pi

so

3/2pi=(60/360)*x

(x is area of circle)

3/2pi=4.71238898038

4.71238898038=1/6x

divide both sides by "1/6"

28.2743338834=x

hope this helps!
