A sofa is on sale for $703, which is 26% less than the regular price what is the regular price?

1 answer:

5 0

Answer:

$950

Step-by-step explanation:

26% less than the regular price = 74%

set up the dimensions as:

part/whole = part/whole

$703 goes in part 74% goes in part

703/? = 74%/100%

Then multiply 100 by 703

100 x 703 = 70300

Finally divided by 74

70300 divided by 74 = 950

The regular price = $950

703/950 = 74%/100%

Write a function rule for the following arithmetic sequence and use it to find the 224th term. Show your work.

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

671 is the 224th term of the given series

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sequence is

2,5,8,11....

First term that is 2

common difference that is 3

we have to find 224th term

That is n =224

using $a_n=a+(n-1)d$

$a_{224}=2+(224-1)3$

On solving the above equation we get

$a_{224}=671$

Hence, 224th term of the given series is 671

5x+21+178/(x-7)<br> How do I solve for domain and range on this equation?

Luda [366]

The domain is easiest. You simply need to find the fractions, and exclude any X that makes the denominator zero. So in this case, your domain is everything except X=7.

For range, you are trying to find out what are the possible answers. Usually the best way to do this is to try x=infinity, and x=negative infinity, which here gives you answers of infinity and negative infinity. Since the function is almost continuous, I think your range is any real number.

Seven apple women, possessing respectively 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 120, and 140

Westkost [7]

Answer:

The amount each took home was 20 unit currency.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Seven apple women, possessing respectively 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 120, and 140 apples, went to market and sold all their apples at the same price, and each received the same sum of money.

Formula : $a \times n + (n - 1)$ , $(a + b)\cdot n + (n - 2)$ , $(a + 2 \cdot b) \cdot n + (n - 3)$ , $(a + 3 \cdot b) \cdot n + (n - 4)$ , $(a + 4 \cdot b) \cdot n + (n - 5)$ , $(a + 5 \cdot b) \cdot n + (n - 6)$ , $(a + 6 \cdot b) \cdot n + (n - 7)$

$a \cdot n + (n - 1) = 20$

$(a + b) \cdot n + (n - 2)=40$

$(a + 2 \cdot b) \cdot n + (n - 3) = 60$

$(a + 3 \cdot b) \cdot n + (n - 4) = 80$

$(a + 4 \cdot b) \cdot n + (n - 5) = 100$

$(a + 5 \cdot b) \cdot n + (n - 6) = 120$

$(a + 6 \cdot b) \cdot n + (n - 7) = 140$

On solving :

n = 7, a = 2, b = 3

So,

$2 \times 7 + 6 = 20$

$5 \times 7 + 5=40$

$8 \times 7 + 4 = 60$

$11 \times 7 + 3 = 80$

$14 \times 7 + 2 = 100$

$17 \times 7 + 1 = 120$

Based on market pricing if groups of apples are sold at 1 unit currency for 7, and extras are sold for 3 unit currency per extra 1, we have the amount :

2×1 + 6×3 = 20

5×1 + 5×3=20

8×1 + 4×3 = 20

11×1 + 3×3 = 20

14×1 + 2×3 = 20

17×1 + 1×3 = 20

20×1 = 20

Therefore, the amount each took home was 20 unit currency.
