Answer:
$26.32

step-by-step explanation:
it originally was $40.00
she has a coupon for 30%
30% of 40.00 is 12
40 • 0.30 = 12
40 - 12
$28
it is now $28 after the coupon
her state charges an 6% sales tax on the discounted price
6% of 28 is 1.68
28 • 0.06 = 1.68
28 - 1.68 = 26.32

3(0.7z+2.8)=7(1.5z+7.2)
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

z = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

3(0.7z + 2.8) = 7(1.5z + 7.2)

2.1z + 8.4 = 10.5z + 50.4

2.1z - 10.5z = 50.4 - 8.4

-8.4z = 42

z = 42/(-8.4)

z = -5

What is the square root of 864
skelet666 [1.2K]

There are two ways to evaluate the square root of 864: using a calculator, and simplifying the root.

The first method is simplifying the root. While this doesn't give you an exact value, it reduces the number inside the root.

Find the prime factorization of 864:

\sqrt{864} = \sqrt{2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 3 \cdot 3 \cdot 3}

Take any number that is repeated twice in the square root, and move it outside of the root:

\sqrt{864} = \sqrt{(2 \cdot 2) \cdot (2 \cdot 2) \cdot 2 \cdot (3 \cdot 3) \cdot 3}

\sqrt{2 \cdot 2} = \sqrt{4} = 2

\sqrt{3 \cdot 3} = \sqrt{9} = 3

\sqrt{(2 \cdot 2) \cdot (2 \cdot 2) \cdot 2 \cdot (3 \cdot 3) \cdot 3} = \sqrt{(4) \cdot (4) \cdot 2 \cdot (9) \cdot 3}

\sqrt{(4) \cdot (4) \cdot 2 \cdot (9) \cdot 3} = (2 \cdot 2 \cdot 3) \sqrt{2 \cdot 3} = \boxed{12 \sqrt{6}}

The simplified form of √864 will be 12√6.

The second method is evaluating the root. Using a calculator, we can find the exact value of √864.

Plugged into a calculator and rounded to the nearest hundredths value, √864 is equal to 29.39. Because square roots can be negative or positive when evaluated, this means that √864 is equal to ±29.39.

A researcher is going to estimate the average typing speed of students of a college. He selects a random sample of 20 students a
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

The margin of error of the 90% confidence interval of a student's average typing speed is of 1.933 wpm.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 20 - 1 = 19

90% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 19 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 1 - \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.95. So we have T = 1.7291

The margin of error is:

M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample. For this question, we have s = 5, n = 20. So

M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}

M = 1.7291\frac{5}{\sqrt{20}}

M = 1.933

The margin of error of the 90% confidence interval of a student's average typing speed is of 1.933 wpm.

1. Marisol is preparing a care package to send to her brother. The package will include a board game that weighs 4 pounds and se
Sladkaya [172]

The content of care package would be a board game and several snack packs.

Given is the weight of board game = 4 pounds.

The weight of one snack pack = \frac{1}{2} \;pounds = 0.5 \;pounds

The total weight would be less than 25 pounds.


Solving for part A :

Let 'x' represents the number of snack packs.

So the weight of all snack packs would be 0.5x pounds.

Now weight of care pack = weight of board game + weight of all snack packs.

weight of care pack = 4 + 0.5x

But total weight must be less than 25 pounds.

So the inequality would be: 4 + 0.5x < 25


Solving for part B :

Solving the inequality 4 + 0.5x < 25

⇒ 4 + 0.5x - 4 < 25 - 4

⇒ 0.5x < 21

⇒ x < 42


Solving for part C :

Since x < 42 and x is an integer number, so x = 41.

She can include maximum of 41 snack packs in the care package.
