Answer:

4% of people had a mild allergic reaction

Step-by-step explanation:

16 is 4% of 400

y = p\% \times x

p\% = y \div x

p\% = 16 \div 400

p = 0.04

Convert decimal to percentage

p\% = 0.04 \times 100 = 4\%

A carpenter wants to expand a square room. The new room will have one side 4 feet longer and the adjacent side 6 feet longer tha
gogolik [260]

Answer:

  Dimensions of original room = 12 x 12 feet.

Explanation:

 Let the size of old square room be a x a.

 New dimension = ( a+4 ) x ( a + 6 )

   We have area of the new room will be 144 square feet greater than the area of the original room.

  So,     ( a+4 ) x ( a + 6 ) = a x a + 144

              a²+10a+24= a²+144

              10a = 120

                  a = 12 feet.

 Dimensions of original room = 12 x 12 feet.

A company sells widgets. The amount of profit, y, made by the company, is related to the selling price of each widget, x, by the
defon

Answer:

Price of widget to break even= $37.9

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the equation representing the amount of profit, y, made by the company, in relation to the selling price of each widget, x is;

y = -8x² + 348x - 1705

Now, the company will break even when it has made no profit. That is when, y = 0

Thus;

0 = -8x² + 348x - 1705

Rearranging,

8x² - 348x + 1705 = 0

Using quadratic formula ;

x = [-b ± √(b² - 4ac)]/2a

x = [-8 ± √(-348² - 4•1•1705)]/(2 x 8)

x = $5.63 or $37.87

We'll use $37.87 because it is the highest price for which no profit is made, and higher price means that we could sell least number of products to earn a certain amount of money.

We are told to approximate to nearest cent. Thus,

Price of widget = $37.87 ≈ $37.9
