Answer:

loss % = 9.25%

Step-by-step explanation:

loss % = 100 × loss / cost price

loss % = 100 × ($780 - $707.85) / $780

loss % = 100 × $72.15 / $780

loss % = 9.25%

Shureka Washburn has scores of 67​, 68​, 76​, and 63 on her algebra tests. a. Use an inequality to find the scores she must make
mash [69]
Average=(total number)/(number of items)
given that the final exam counts as two test, let the final exam be x. The weight of the final exams on the average is 2, thus the final exam can be written as 2x because any score Shureka gets will be doubled before the averaging.
Hence our inequality will be as follows:
(67+68+76+63+2x)/6≥71
(274+2x)/6≥71
solving the above we get:
274+2x≥71×6
274+2x≥426
2x≥426-274
2x≥152
x≥76

b] The above answer is x≥76, the mean of this is that if Shureka is aiming at getting an average of 71 or above, then she should be able to get a minimum score of 76 or above. Anything less than 76 will drop her average lower than 71.

How to divide (x^2+5x-36)÷(x-4)
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the divisor is in the form of <em>x - c</em>, use what is called <em>Synthetic Division</em>. Remember, in this formula, -c gives you the OPPOSITE terms of what they really are, so do not forget it. Anyway, here is how it is done:

4| 1 5 -36

↓ 4 36

----------------

1 9 0 → x + 9

You start by placing the c in the top left corner, then list all the coefficients of your dividend [x² + 5x - 36]. You bring down the original term closest to <em>c</em><em>,</em> then begin your multiplication. Now depending on what symbol your result is tells you whether the next step is to subtract or add, then you continue this process starting with multiplication all the way up until you reach the end. Now, when the last term is 0, that means you have NO REMAINDER. Finally, your quotient is one degree less than your dividend, so that 1 in your quotient can be an x, and the 9 follows right behind it, giving you the other factor of x + 9.

What is the approximate diameter of a sphere with a volume of 268cm3
kogti [31]

Answer:

diameter ≈15.6

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this;

volume of a sphere = 4/3 πr³

From the question given;

volume of the sphere = 268    

lets substitute   and solve for r

volume of sphere = 4/3 πr³

268 = 4/3 × 3.14 × r³

268 =4.19 × r³

Divide both-side of the equation by 4.19

268/4.19 = r³

63.96 = r³

Take the cube root of both-side

∛63.96 = r

7.8 ≈ r

but diameter = 2r = 2×7.8 =15.6
