Answer:

1. $0.99

2. $1.98

Step-by-step explanation:

1. From the question we have

Cost of box = $2.48

Selling price = $1.49

That is the box is discounted from $2.48 to $1.49

Therefore, amount saved = $2.48 - $1.49 = $0.99

2. The amount saved from buying a second box is hence;

2 × $0.99 = $1.98

Hence, as the number of boxes bought increases, the amount saved increases

Answer:

The answers to both questions are

1. You save $0.99 on the box when it is purchased on sale

This is calculated by subtracting on-sale price from pre-sale price:

$2.48-$1.49 = $0.99

2. Total amount saved when a second box is purchased on-sale price is derived by multiplying the amount saved on-sale purchase by two:

$0.99 x 2 (boxes)

$0.99 x 2 = $1.98

Cheers!

When a number is increased by 2.8%, the result is 56. What is the original number to

Sever21 [200]

Answer:

The original number was 54.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a number is increased by 2.8%, then it is 102.8% of it's original number.

In mathematics, "of" in virtually all cases means "multiplied by".

Therefore, we do the opposite:

1. Convert to a decimal.

102.8% = 1.028

2. Divide by the decimal.

$56 \div 1.028 = 54.47$

3. Round it to the nearest tenth.

54.47 rounds to 54.5.

Teresa earned scores of 88, 84, 88 points and 91 points on 4 test what is the lowest score she can get on the fifth test and sti

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

99 points

Step-by-step explanation:

Average of a data a is the sum of the data divided by the number of data.

Average = sum of data ÷ number of data

A = T/n .....1

For the average of 5 test to be 90.

The total sum of score must be;

Number of tests n = 5

Average A = 90

Substituting into equation 1

90 = T/5

T = 90×5 = 450 points

The total score must be equal to 450 point to have an average of 90 points

The sum of the first four test is;

88+84+88+91 = 351

Let x represent the first score,

351 + x = 450

x = 450 - 351

x = 99 points

The minimum score she can get in the fifth test is 99 points

Sal wants to know if he has enough money to buy 4 gallons of gas. If he has $15, and each gallon of gas costs $3.29, which is a

velikii [3]

Answer:

Remember that when you are making stimates, you are going to roiund to the nearest dollar. Since $3.29 is closer to 3 dollars than four dollars, Sam should use the 3 dollars figure to estimate if he can afford 4 gallons of gas.

$3+$3+$3+$3=$12

The actual value is , so $3 per gallon is indeed a god estimate.

We can conclude that the correct answer is: $3 + $3 + $3 + $3 = 12, so Sal can afford the gas.

QUESTION 1

The given inequality is

$y\leq x-3$ and $y\geq -x-2$ .

If (3,-2) is a solution; then it must satisfy both inequalities.

We put x=3 and y=-2 in to both inequalities.

$-2\leq 3-3$ and $-2\geq -3-2$ .

$-2\leq 0$ :True and $-2\geq -5$ :True

Both inequalities are satisfied, hence (3,-2) is a solution to the given system of inequality.

QUESTION 2

The given inequality is

$y\:>\:-3x+3$ and $y\:>\: x+2$ .

If (1,4) is a solution; then it must satisfy both inequalities.

We put x=1 and y=4 in to both inequalities.

$4\:>\:-3(1)+3$ and $4\:>\: 1+2$ .

$4\:>\:0$ :True and $4\:>\: 3$ :True

Both inequalities are satisfied, hence (1,4) is a solution to the given system of inequality.

Ans: True

QUESTION 3

The given inequality is

$y\leq 3x-6$ and $y\:>\: -4x+2$ .

If (0,-2) is a solution; then it must satisfy both inequalities.

We put x=0 and y=-2 in to both inequalities.

$-2\leq 3(0)-6$ and $-2\:>\: -4(0)+2$ .

$-2\leq -6$ :False and $-2\:>\:2$ :False

Both inequalities are not satisfied, hence (0,-2) is a solution to the given system of inequality.

Ans:False

QUESTION 4

The given inequality is

$2x-y\:$ and $x+y\:>\:-1$ .

If (0,3) is a solution; then it must satisfy both inequalities.

We put x=0 and y=3 in to both inequalities.

$2(0)-3\:$ and $0+3\:>\:-1$ .

$-3\:$ :True and $3\:>\:-1$ : True

Both inequalities are satisfied, hence (0,3) is a solution to the given system of inequality.

Ans:True

QUESTION 5

The given system of inequality is

$y\:>\:2x-3$ and $y\:$ .

If (-3,0) is a solution; then it must satisfy both inequalities.

We put x=-3 and y=0 in to both inequalities.

$0\:>\:2(-3)-3$ and $0\:$ .

$0\:>\:-9$ ;True and $0\:$ :True

Both inequalities are satisfied, hence (-3,0) is a solution to the given system of inequality.

Ans:True
