Answer:
<em>Peter now has 54 baseball cards</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Percentages</u>
Assume Peter had x baseball cards in his collection. The 35% of his initial collection is
35 * x / 100= 0.35x
We know that those 14 new baseball cards represent a 35% of his previous collection, therefore we can set a simple equation
0.35x=14
When we solve for x, we'll know how many baseball cards Peter had before
x=14 / 0.35 = 40
Peter had 40 cards, he added 14 new baseball cards, so he now has 40+14=54
Peter now has 54 baseball cards
Answer: 98.1%
Explanation:
A 10% sale means that the post-sale price of the item is now 90%, or 0.9 of the original cost of the item. We then apply 9% sales tax by multiplying the 0.9 by 109%, or 1.09. 0.9 * 1.09 = .981, so the total cost of the item is 98.1% of the original pre-sale sticker price.
For percentage problems that do not deal with a specific starting number, it is always helpful to plug in 100 for the starting number. Here, we would then have a post-sale price of 90 dollars, and if we calculate the sales tax for the 90-dollar item it would be 90 * 0.09 = $8.10. THis gives us a total cost of 90 + 8.10 = $98.10, or 98.1% of the original 100-dollar price.
Answer:
C. 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph descends from the left so the coefficient of the leading term is negative. It is also a cubic equation with zeros of -20, about 6.5 and about 13. so we can write the equation as below. The last 2 values can only be guessed because the x axis only shows values which are multiples of 5.
f(x) = a(x + 20)(x - 6.5)(x - 13) where a is a negative constant.
(This is only an approximation).
By the Remainder theorem, when the expression is divided by (x + 10):
f(-10) = -20 so we have
-20 = a (-10 + 20)(-10-6.5)(-10 - 13)
(10)(-16.5)(-23)a = -20
a = -20 / (10)(-16.5)(-23)
a = -0.0053
When the equation is divided by (x - 10) then f(10) is the remainder so substituting we have as the remainder:
-0.0053(10+20)(10-6.5)(10 -13)
-0.0053 * 30 * 3.5 * -3
= 1.7 approximately.
Looks like the answer is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:
I believe the first graph in the shape of the \_/ is the correct graph because when he gets off the freeway his speed slows then he stops and is no longer moving for a period of time. Then he gets back on and his speed is going up.
