Actually heres the breakdown...
year 1  20,000
year 2 decreased 20% is 16,666
year 3 decreased 20% is 13,888
year 4 decreased 20% is 11,574
year 5 decreased 20% is 9,645
year 6 decreased 20% is 8,037
so selling it for $4000 is a major loss on their end so they should NOT sell at that price.

Anton [14]
We must find the unit rate for each. Since frosted flakes is already given, we only need raisin brain. 

13/1.4 = 9.29

9.29<11

Frosted flakes will be more sugary. Hope this helps!

Alan works 6miles away from the apartment and rollerblades from his work place to the apartment at a constant rate of 7miles per
dimulka [17.4K]
Let the distance remaining after time t be x miles.

Distance traveled by Alan = (6-x) miles
Distance traveled by Soren = (8-x) miles

Time takes by the two is the same. Therefore,
(8-x)/12 = (6-x)/7 => 7(8-x) = 12(6-x) => 56-7x = 72-12x => 12x-7x = 72 -56 => 5x= 16 => x = 16/5 = 3.2 miles.

And then, time taken (t) = (8-3.2)/12 = (6-3.2)/7 = 0.4 hours

Which number in the monomial 215x18y3z21 needs to be changed to make it a perfect cube?
hoa [83]
We need to remember that:
                   xyz = (x)(y)(z)
if x, y and z are perfect cubes, then xyz would also be a perfect cube

Also, 
                 (x^n)^m = x^(mn)
if it is a perfect cube, then it can be factored into the expression (x^n)^3, wherein n is a whole number.

All should be a perfect cube, given

215x^18(y^3)(z^21)

By writing the terms separately, we would see which one is to be changed. 

215 = 5*43, we see this is not a perfect cube, we could changed it to 6^3 or 216

x^18=(x^6)^3

y^3=y^3
z^21=(z^7)^3

The other terms are perfect cubes except for the first one. So the correct answer would be the last option, 215 should be changed.

40% =32/ what is the full fraction
Levart [38]
40% = 32/x

Rewrite using a decimal

.40 = 32 / x

Multiply both sides by x
.40x = 32

Divide both sides by .40
x = 32 / .40
x = 80

Write the full fraction
32/80

masha68 [24]

Answer:

range of scores on final exam student get  B is 90 to 100

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

Psychology 101 score = 66

average of his midterm = between 78 and 90

maximum = 100 points

to find out

range of scores on final exam student get  B

solution

we consider here lowest marks need in final = x

so average at two marks should be

equation is  

average marks = 0.5 × ( mid term marks + final marks )      .................1

put here value

78 = 0.5 ×  ( 66 + x )

x = 90

and

90 = 0.5 ×  ( 66 + x )

x = 114

so range 90 to 114

but maximum marks is 100 so

range of scores on final exam student get  B is 90 to 100
