Answer:

$\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{\boxed{ \sf{ \: 12.9 \: \: dollars}}}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Cost without tax = $ 12

Tax percent = 7.5 %

Cost including tax = ?

First, finding the tax amount :

$\sf{tax \: amount \: = \: 7.5 \: \% \: of \: 12}$

⇒ $\sf{tax \: amount = \frac{7.5}{100} \times 12}$

⇒ $\sf{tax \: amount = 0.9}$ dollars

Finding the total cost of the lunch including tax :

⇒ $\sf{total \: cost \: = \: 12 + 0.9}$

⇒ $\sf{total \: cost \: = \: 12.9}$ dollars

Hope I helped!

Best regards ! :D

Is mean affected by outlier

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

it measures spread around the mean. Because of its close links with the mean, standard deviation can be greatly affected if the mean gives a poor measure of central tendency. Standard deviation is also influenced by outliers one value could contribute largely to the results of the standard deviation.

Step-by-step explanation:

$(h+k)(x)=h(x)+k(x)\\\\\bold{METHOD\ 1:}\\\\k(x)=x-2,\ h(x)=x^2+1\\\\(k+h)(2)=h(2)+k(2)\\\\\text{Calculate}\ h(2)\ \text{and}\ k(2).\\\text{Put}\ x=2\ \text{to the equations of the functions}\\\\h(2)=2^2+1=4+1=5\\k(2)=2-2=0\\\\\text\\\\\text{Substitute:}\\\\(h+k)(2)=5+0=5$

$\bold{METHOD\ 2:}\\\\k(x)=x-2,\ h(x)=x^2+1\\\\(h+k)(x)=h(x)+k(x)=(x^2+1)+(x-2)=x^2+x-1\\\\(h+k)(2)-\text{put}\ x=2\\\\(h+k)(2)=2^2+2-1=4+2-1=6-1=5$

1-What is the sum of the series? ∑j=152j Enter your answer in the box.

tangare [24]

Answer:

Please see the Step-by-step explanation for the answers

Step-by-step explanation:

∑ $\left \ {{5} \atop {j=1}} \right.$ 2j

The sum of series from j=1 to j=5 is:

∑ = 2(1) + 2(2) + 2(3) + 2(4) + 2(5)

= 2 + 4 + 6 + 8 + 10

∑ = 30

This question is not given clearly so i assume the following series that will give you an idea how to solve this:

∑ $\left \ {{4} \atop {k=1}} \right.$ 2k²

The sum of series from k=1 to j=4 is:

∑ = 2(1)² + 2(2)² + 2(3)² + 2(4)²

= 2(1) + 2(4) + 2(9) + 2(16)

= 2 + 8 + 18 + 32

∑ = 60

∑ $\left \ {{4} \atop {k=1}} \right.$ (2k)²

∑ = (2*1)² + (2*2)² + (2*3)² + (2*4)²

= (2)² + (4)² + (6)² + (8)²

= 4 + 16 + 36 + 64

∑ = 120

∑ $\left \ {{4} \atop {k=1}} \right.$ (2k)²- 4

∑ = (2*1)²-4 + (2*2)²-4 + (2*3)²-4 + (2*4)²-4

= (2)²-4 + (4)²-4 + (6)²-4 + (8)²-4

= (4-4) + (16-4) + (36-4) + (64-4)

= 0 + 12 + 32 + 60

∑ = 104

∑ $\left \ {{4} \atop {k=1}} \right.$ 2k²- 4

∑ = 2(1)²-4 + 2(2)²-4 + 2(3)²-4 + 2(4)²-4

= 2(1)-4 + 2(4)-4 + 2(9)-4 + 2(16)-4

= (2-4) + (8-4) + (18-4) + (32-4)

= -2 + 4 + 14 + 28

∑ = 44

∑ $\left \ {{6} \atop {k=3}} \right.$ (2k-10)

∑ = (2×3−10) + (2×4−10) + (2×5−10) + (2×6−10)

= (6-10) + (8-10) + (10-10) + (12-10)

= -4 + -2 + 0 + 2

∑ = -4

1+1/2+1/4+1/8+1/16+1/32+1/64

This is a geometric sequence where first term is 1 and the common ratio is 1/2 So

a = 1

This can be derived as

1/2/1 = 1/2 * 1 = 1/2

1/4/1/2 = 1/4 * 2/1 = 1/2

1/8/1/4 = 1/8 * 4/1 = 1/2

1/16/1/8 = 1/16 * 8/1 = 1/2

1/32/1/16 = 1/32 * 16/1 = 1/2

1/64/1/32 = 1/64 * 32/1 = 1/2

Hence the common ratio is r = 1/2

So n-th term is:

$ar^{n-1}$ = $1(\frac{1}{2})^{n-1}$

So the answer that represents the series in sigma notation is:

∑ $\left \ {{7} \atop {j=1}} \right.$ $(\frac{1}{2})^{j-1}$

−3+(−1)+1+3+5

This is an arithmetic sequence where the first term is -3 and the common difference is 2. So

a = 1

This can be derived as

-1 - (-3) = -1 + 3 = 2

1 - (-1) = 1 + 1 = 2

3 - 1 = 2

5 - 3 = 2

Hence the common difference d = 2

The nth term is:

a + (n - 1) d

= -3 + (n−1)2

= -3 + 2(n−1)

= -3 + 2n - 2

= 2n - 5

So the answer that represents the series in sigma notation is:

∑ $\left \ {{5} \atop {j=1}} \right.$ (2j−5)

Mitra created a mosaic design using square 2x2 cm white tiles and 2x3 cm rectangular centimeter black tiles. She used twice as m

zvonat [6]

Mitra used 156 white tiles of 2x2 cm and 76 black tiles of 2x3 cm to form a pattern with an area of 1092 cm²

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Let x represent the number of white tiles and y represent the number of black tiles.

Area of white tiles = 2 cm * 2 cm = 4 cm²

Area of black tiles = 2 cm * 3 cm = 6 cm²

She used twice as many white tiles as black tiles. Hence:

x = 2y (1)

Also, the finished pattern was 1092 square centimeters in area. Hence:

4x + 6y = 1092 (2)

From both equations:

x = 156, y = 78

Mitra used 156 white tiles of 2x2 cm and 76 black tiles of 2x3 cm to form a pattern with an area of 1092 cm²
