Answer:

The percent off on the sale price is 30%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Marked up price = $64.99

marked down Price = $45.49

Let us assume the off percentage = k%

Now, the Amount off on the sale = Marked up price - Marked down price

= $64.99 - $45.49 = $19.5

⇒ k% off on Marked up Price $64.99 = $19.5

or, $\frac{k}{100} \times 64.99 = 19.5\\\implies k = \frac{19.5 \times 100}{64.99} = 30$

or, k = 30%

Hence, the percent off on the sale price is 30%

a store sells grass seed in small bags and large bags.the small bags have 7 pounds of seed for 27.93 and large bags cost 66.98.w

Answer

Find out the ratio of price to pound for each bag.

To prove

As given

A store sells grass seed in small bags and large bags.the small bags have 7 pounds of seed for $27.93 .

7 pound = $27.93

Now find out the cost for the 1 pound.

$1\ pound\ cost= \frac{27.93}{7}$

1 pound cost = $3.99

As given large bags cost $66.98.

Now find out pounds in the large bags.

Let us assume that the number of pounds in the large bags be x.

Than

3.99 × x = 66.98

$x = \frac{66.98}{3.99}$

x = 16.8 pounds (approx)

Now find out the ratio of price to pound for each bag.

As small bags weight = 7 pounds

Cost of the small bags = $27.93

$\frac{Price\ of\ small\ bag}{Cost\ of\ the\ small\ bags} = \frac{27.93}{7}$

As large bags weight = 16.8 pounds

Cost of the large bags = $66.98

$\frac{Price\ of\ large\ bag}{Cost\ of\ the\ large\ bags} = \frac{66.98}{16.8}$

Hence proved

One number is 9 more than another. if the sum of the two numbers is 163, find the two numbers.

tiny-mole [99]

I think that one number is 77 and the other is 86. 77 + 9 is 86. 86 +77 is 163.

Part A

klasskru [66]

Answer:

a) The y-intercept is 160. It represents the initial distance Jayden was from his home.

b) The x-intercept is 4. It represents the amount of time taken for Jayden to reach his home.

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept can be found by looking at the value of y when x=0. When x=0, y= 160. Since the x-axis is the amount of time in hours, x=0 would mean the initial time. The x-axis is the number of miles from Jayden's home thus, Jayden was 160 miles away from his home when x=0 hours.

The x-intercept can be found by looking at the x value when y=0. When y=0, x=4. This means that it took Jayden 4 hours to reach home or 4 hours to travel 160miles to his house.

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

We do not have enough evidence to accept H₀

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Distribution

size sample = n = 64 (very small sample for evaluating population of 5 years

Standard deviation 4,8

1.- Test hypothesis

H₀ null hypothesis ⇒ μ₀ = 14 and

Hₐ alternative hypothesis ⇒ μ₀ ≠ 14

2.- z(c) we assume α = 0,05 as we are dealing with a two test tail we should consider α/2 = 0.025.

From z table we the z(c) value

z(c) = 1.96 and of course by symmetry z(c) = -1.96

3.- We proceed to compute z(s)

z(s) = [ ( μ - μ₀ ) /( σ/√n) ] ⇒ z(s) = - (1.5)*√64/4.8

z(s) = - 2.5

We compare z(s) and z(c)

z(s) < z(c) -2.5 < -1.96 meaning z(s) is in the rejection zone

we reject H₀ .

From the start we indicate sample size as to small for the experiment nonetheless we found that we dont have enough evidence to accept H₀
