Answer:

Expressions C and D correctly determine the markup price.

Step-by-step explanation:

A markup in mathematics is when an object's price is raised by a certain percentage. Therefore, because we are told that the telescope is originally $400 and is marked up by 32%, we can actually mathematically evaluate this.

When you markup a price, you multiply the original price by 1+x, where x is the percentage at which the object is marked up. However, x needs to be in decimal form for it to work out.

\frac{32}{100} = \small\boxed{0.32}

Therefore, with this new decimal, we can add 1 to it.

1 + 0.32=\small\boxed{1.32}

Finally, we multiply this result by the original price.

1.32 \times 400=\small\boxed{528}

Therefore, we can already confirm that Expression C is one way to find the markup price.

  • We can eliminate expression A because it did not use the formula 1+x. It only uses the decimal form of the percentage.
  • We can eliminate expression B because the division to convert from the percentage form to the decimal form is flawed (the expression divided by 10 instead of 100) and also forgot to add 1 to the determined value.

Now, we can test the math for expressions D and E to see if either of these will equal $528.

Expression D is basically saying to add 32% of 400 to the original price. This would work out because we marked up the original price by 32%. Therefore, we can confirm that Expression D is also an expression that can be used to determine the markup price.

400 + 400(0.32)\\400(0.32) = 128\\400 + 128 = \small\boxed{528}

Finally, we also need to check expression E. This expression is saying to add the already marked up price to 400. This would not be correct.

400 \times 400(1.32)\\400(1.32) = 528\\400 \times 528 = \small\boxed{\$ 211,200}

Therefore, it has been determined that Expression C & Expression D are both equations that will find a markup price.

A leprechaun places a magic penny under a​ girl's pillow. The next night there are 2 magic pennies under her pillow. The followi
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

34

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the pennies need to be kept under the pillow in order to be doubled, we're really looking for the day the girl will wake up with 5 billion pennies under her pillow.

The general formula of that geometric sequence will be: t = 1 + 2^(n-1)

We need to find the value of n when t will be over 5,000,000,000.

So, the equation becomes:

5,000,000,001 = 1 + 2^(n-1)

2^{n-1}= 5,000,000,001

log(2^{n-1}) = log(5,000,000,000)

(n-1) * log(2) = log(5,000,000,000)

n-1 = log(5,000,000,000) / log(2)

n-1 = 22.25

n = 33.25

Since it has to be complete days, and we have to reach over 5 billion, then we round it up to 34.

PLEASE HELP Is A'B'C'D' a translation, rotation, or reflection of ABCD? Explain how you can tell.
Serga [27]

A’B’C’D’ is a reflection.

It is a reflection because it’s mirrored across the y-axis, like looking at the side of your face in the mirror. A translation is the same thing and moving it from one set of coords to another, without turning it. A rotation would be turning it, which A’B’C’D’ is neither of.
