The question is incomplete as the cost price isn't given. However, taking the cost price as x :

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

A car costs$cents when new. It was sold for four fifths of its cost price. How much money was lost on the car.

Let :

Cost price when new = x

Cost price when sold = 4/5 * cost price when new

Cost when sold = 4/5 of x = 4x/5

Amount of money lost on the car = (Cost price of car when new - Cost of car when sold)

Hence,

Amount of money lost on the car = (x - 4x/5)

x - 4x/5 = (5x - 4x) / 5 = x / 5

To obtain the exact price, kindly input the omitted cost when new for x.

If (x) = 3x - 5 and g(x) = x + 3, find (f - g)(x).
Temka [501]

Answer:

2x -8

Step-by-step explanation:

f (x) = 3x - 5

g(x) = x + 3,

(f - g)(x) = 3x - 5 - ( x+3)

Distribute the minus sign

            = 3x-5 -x-3

Combine like terms

           = 2x -8

NARA [144]

Answer: A. True.

Step-by-step explanation:

A relationship is linear when the points on a scatterplot follow a somewhat straight line pattern. This is the relationship that we will examine. Linear relationships can be either positive or negative. Positive relationships have points that incline upwards to the right. As x values increase, y values increase.

3) The average age of students at XYZ University is 24 years with a standard deviation of 8 years. Number of students at the uni
otez555 [7]

Answer:

0.1875

Step-by-step explanation:

σM=σ/√N

=8/√7500

=8/86.608

=0.092

Z=(x-μ)/σ/√N

=(25.5-36)/8/√7500

=-10.5/0.0092=-1141.304

Z score = -1.3125

=(27-36)/8/√7500 =

=9/0.0092=978.261

Z score= -1.125

-1.125-(-1.3125)=-1.125+1.3125)= 0.1875

The probability that the sample mean will be between 25.5 and 27 years

P(between 25.5 and 27) = 0.1875
