How do I solve this question? <br> What number is 5% of 860?

Mike's monthly pay after taxes is $2,300.

wlad13 [49]

Step-by-step explanation:

100%=>$2,300

45%=>x

x=$2,300×45÷100=$1035

The pay left for other purposes

$2300-$1035=$1265

Or:

100%=>$2,300

55%=>x

x=$2,300×55÷100=$1265.

Which of the following is not a promotional tactic used by a seller?

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

we conclude that the 'bait and switch' technique is not a promotional tactic used by a seller.

Hence, 'a' is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given options, the 'bait and switch' technique is not a promotional tactic used by a seller.

'Bait and switch' is a deceptive sale practice using which the sells try to attract (bait) the customers by offering attractive prices on certain items, but when the customers tend to go to the shop to buy the items, they witness the unavailability of the goods, or find the prices go higher compared to what they had been offered.

Now, since the customers are already present at the shop, the sellers try to pressurize the customer so that they could buy something else.

Therefore, we conclude that the 'bait and switch' technique is not a promotional tactic used by a seller.

Hence, 'a' is the correct option.

Jane, Scott, and Frank have a total of $144 in their wallets. Frank has 4 times what Jane has. Scott has $6 less than Jane. How

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Jane have $25

Frank have $100

Scott have $19

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the amount that each have, we have to represent this information in a mathematical format and then solve

let x represent represent the amount that Jane has

let Y represent represent the amount that Frank has

let z represent represent the amount that Scott has

From the question given, "Jane, Scott, and Frank have a total of $144" can be represented mathematically as

x + y + z = $144 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------(1)

"Frank has 4 times what Jane has" can be represented mathematically as

y = 4x ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------(2)

"Scott has $6 less than Jane" can be represented mathematically as

z= x- 6 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------(3)

we can now solve the equations using the substitution method

substitute equation (2) and (3) into equation (1)

x + y + z = $144

x + 4x + x-6 = $144

6x -6 = $144

add 6 to both-side of the equation

6x - 6 + 6 = $144 + 6

6x =$150

Divide both-side of the equation by 6

6x/6 = 150/6

x = $25

from equation 2

y = 4x

substitute x= $25 in equation (2)

y = 4 (25)

y = $100

substitute x=$25 in equation (3)

z = x- 6

z = 25 - 6

z=$19

Jane have $25

Frank have $100

Scott have $19

A Ferris wheel is 20 meters in diameter and boarded from a platform that is 2 meters above the ground. The six o'clock position

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

233.48s

3.84 min

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we can start by drawing what the situation looks like. See attached picture.

We can model this situation by making use of a trigonometric function. Trigonometric functions have the following shape:

$y=A cos(\omega t+\phi)+C$

where:

A= amplitude =-20m because the model starts at the lowest point of the trajectory.

f= the function to use, in this case we'll use cos, since it starts at the lowest point of the trajectory.

t= time

$\omega=$ angular speed.

in this case:

$\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}$

where T is the period, in this case 6 min or

$6min(\frac{60s}{1min})=360s$

so:

$\omega=\frac{2\pi}{360}$

$\omega = \frac{\pi}{160}$

and

$\phi$ = phase angle

C= vertical shift

in this case our vertical shift will be:

2m+20m=22m

in this case the phase angle is 0 because we are starting at the lowest point of the trajectory. So the equation for the ferris wheel will be:

$y=-20 cos(\frac{\pi}{180}t)+22$

Once we got this equation, we can figure out on what times the passenger will be higher than 13 m, so we build the following inequality:

$-20 cos(\frac{\pi}{180}t)+22>13$

so we can solve this inequality, we can start by turning it into an equation we can solve for t:

$-20 cos(\frac{\pi}{180}t)+22=13$

and solve it:

$-20 cos(\frac{\pi}{180}t)=13-22$

$-20 cos(\frac{\pi}{180}t)=-9$

$cos(\frac{\pi}{180}t)=\frac{9}{20}$

and we can take the inverse of cos to get:

$\frac{\pi}{180}t=cos^{-1}(\frac{9}{20})$

which yields two possible answers: (see attached picture)

so

$\frac{\pi}{180}t=1.104$ or $\frac{\pi}{180}t=5.179$

so we can solve the two equations. Let's start with the first one:

$\frac{\pi}{180}t=1.104$

$t =1.104(\frac{180}{\pi})$

t=63.25s

and the second one:

$\frac{\pi}{180}t=5.179$

$t=5.179(\frac{180}{\pi})$

t=296.73s

so now we can build our possible intervals we can use to test the inequality:

[0, 63.25] for a test value of 1

[63.25,296.73] for a test value of 70

[296.73, 360] for a test value of 300

let's test the first interval:

[0, 63.25] for a test value of 1

$-20 cos(\frac{\pi}{180}(1))+22>13$

2>13 this is false

let's now test the second interval:

[63.25,296.73] for a test value of 70

$-20 cos(\frac{\pi}{180}(70))+22>13$

15.16>13 this is true

and finally the third interval:

[296.73, 360] for a test value of 300

$-20 cos(\frac{\pi}{180}(300))+22>13$

12>13 this is false.

We only got one true outcome which belonged to the second interval:

[63.25,296.73]

so the total time spent above a height of 13m will be:

196.73-63.25=233.48s

which is the same as:

$233.48(\frac{1min}{60s})=3.84 min$

see attached picture for the graph of the situation. The shaded region represents the region where the passenger will be higher than 13 m.
