A customer will pay $225.5 for one rug.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Purchase price of rug = $82.00

Mark up = 150%

Amount of mark up = 150% of purchase price

Amount of mark up = $\frac{150}{100}*82$

Amount of mark up = 1.5*82 = $123

Price of rug after mark up = Purchase price + Mark up

Price of rug after mark up = 82+123 = $205

Sales tax = 10%

Amount of sales tax = 10% of price after markup

Amount of sales tax = $\frac{10}{100}*205=\$20.5$

Selling price = Price after markup + Amount of sales tax

Selling price = 205+20.5 = $225.5

A customer will pay $225.5 for one rug.

A basketball coach kept stats for his team in free throw percentage and steals (among others). At the last game, Erin's free thr

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

Due to the higher z-score, she did better in the free throw category.

Step-by-step explanation:

Z-score:

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question:

She did better in the category that she had the higher z-score:

Free-throws:

Her free throw percentage was 79%, which means that $X = 79$

The team averaged 87% from the free throw line with a standard deviation of 12, which means that $\mu = 87, \sigma = 12$ . So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{79 - 87}{12}$

$Z = -0.67$

Steals:

She had 4 steals, which means that $X = 4$

Averaged 7 steals with a standard deviation of 3, which means that $\mu = 7, \sigma = 3$ . So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{4 - 7}{3}$

$Z = -1$

Due to the higher z-score, she did better in the free throw category.

What is the value of n in the relationship 8n+9=-n+5

vitfil [10]

Subtract 5 from both sides.

$8n + 4 = -n$

Subtract 8n from both sides.

$4 = -9n$

Divide both sides by -9 to solve for n.

$- \frac{4}{9} = n$

The value of n is -4/9.

Simplify the expression by using a double-angle formula or a half-angle formula. (a) 2 tan(5°) 1 − tan2(5°)

antoniya [11.8K]

The question is related to trigonometry and we have to use the formula of double angle .

Here we use double angle formula of tangent function which is

$tan(2x) = \frac{2tan(x)}{1-tan^2(x)}$

Given expression is

$\frac{2tan (5 \degree)}{1-tan^2(5 \degree)}$

Comparing it with double angle formula, we will get x = 5

SO the required expression is equal to

$\frac{2tan (5 \degree)}{1-tan^2(5 \degree)} =tan(2*5 )$

$\frac{2tan (5 \degree)}{1-tan^2(5 \degree)} =tan(10 )$

So the answer is tan(10) .
