Answer:

25 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage is given by :

$\%=\dfrac{\text{original value-new value}}{\text{origial value}}\times 100$

Original cost of sweater is $32 and sale cost is $24. So,

$\%=\dfrac{32-24}{32}\times 100\\\\=25\%$

Hence, 25 % is the markdown on the sweater.

36.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for the given data

Required

Which length is closest to 4.2lb

The given data is a linear dataset.

So, we start by calculating the slope (m)

$m =\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

Pick any two corresponding points from the table

So, we have:

$(x_1,y_1) = (8,1.21)$

$(x_2,y_2) = (12,1.63)$

So:

$m =\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

$m =\frac{1.63 - 1.21}{12 - 8}$

$m =\frac{0.42}{4}$

$m =0.105$

The linear equation is then calculated using:

$y = m(x - x_1) + y_1$

This gives:

$y = 0.105 * (x - 8) + 1.21$

Open bracket

$y = 0.105x - 0.84 + 1.21$

$y = 0.105x + 0.37$

To get the length closest to 4.2lb,

we set $y = 4.2$

Then solve for x

So, we have:

$y = 0.105x + 0.37$

$4.2 = 0.105x + 0.37$

Collect like terms

$0.105x= 4.2 - 0.37$

$0.105x= 3.83$

Solve for x

$x= 3.83/0.105$

$x\approx 36.5$

A company provides a monthly pension to its employees. A person retiring at 62 retires and receives a full monthly pension. If t

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

The reduction is 8.6%

Explanation:

Call F the full monthly pension of a person retiring at 62.

If a person continues to work the pension grows at a rate of 6% per year, compounded monthly, so use the compounded growing formula:

$Pension=F(1+r/12)^{12t}$

Where r = 6 / 100 = 0.06, and t = number of years after retirement.

For retirement at 65.5:

t = 65.5 - 62 = 3.5

$Pension=F(1+0.06/12)^{12\times 3.5}=1.233F$

For retirement at 67:

t = 67 - 62 = 5

$Pension=F(1+0.06/12)^{12\times 5}=1.349F$

Percent reduction of people who retire at 65.5 compared to what they would receive at 67:

$(1.349F-1.233F)\times 100/(1.349F)=8.6\%$

(f/g)(x)and (f/g)(7)

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

$(\frac{f}{g})(x)=\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}\\\\(\frac{f}{g})(7)=\frac{f(7)}{g(7)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Division operation of function: $If\ f(x)\ and\ g(x)\ are\ two\ functions\ then\ (\frac{f}{g})(x)=\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}$

$Here\ we\ have\ to\ find\ (\frac{f}{g})(7)\\\\(\frac{f}{g})(7)=\frac{f(7)}{g(7)}$

Example:

$Take\ f(x)=3x^2+1,\ g(x)=x+1\\\\(\frac{f}{g})(x)=\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}\\\\(\frac{f}{g})(x)=\frac{3x^2+1}{x+1}\\\\f(7)=3\times 7^2+1\\\\f(7)=3\times 49+1\\\\f(7)=148\\\\g(7)=7+1\\\\g(7)=8\\\\(\frac{f}{g})(7)=\frac{f(7)}{g(7)}\\\\(\frac{f}{g})(x)=\frac{148}{8}$
