In mathematics, a percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100. A common symbol for a percentage is this symbol "%." Some abbreviations for it can be, "pct," or "pc."

Remember though that a percentage had no unit of measurement as it is a dimensions number.

Which represents the solution(s) of the system of equations, y = –x2 + 6x + 16 and y = –4x + 37? Determine the solution set alge
masya89 [10]

Answer: c.(3, 25) and (7, 9)

y = –x^2 + 6x + 16 and y = –4x + 37

Plug in -4x+37 for y in first equation . It becomes

-x^2 + 6x + 16= -4x+37

Combine like terms. add 4x  and subtract 37 on both sides

-x^2 + 10x - 21=0

Divide the whole equation by -1 to remove negative sign from -x^2

x^2 - 10x + 21=0

Now factor the left hand side

(x-7)(x-3) = 0

x-7 =0  and x-3=0

x= 7  and x=3

Now we find out y using y = –4x + 37

when  x= 7 , then y=-4(7) +37 = 9

when x= 3, then y=-4(3) + 37 = 25

We write solution set as (x,y)

(7,9)  and (3,25) is our solution set

Tell whether the sequence is arithmetic. Justify your answer. If the sequence is arithmetic, write a recursive
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

The explicit formula

a_n = 3 +0.25 (n-1)

The recursive formula

a_1 = 3                            for n=1

a_n = a_ {(n-1)} +0.25     if n>1

Step-by-step explanation:

If a sequence is arithmetical then the difference between any of its consecutive terms will be constant

3, 3.25, 3.5, 3.75,

3.25-3 = 0.25\\\\3.5-3.25 = 0.25\\\\3.75 -3.5 = 0.25

The difference between the consecutive terms remains constant so the sequence is arithmetic.

The explicit formula for an arithmetic sequence is:

a_n = a_1 + d (n-1)

Where d is the constant difference between the terms.

d = 0.25

a_1 is the first term of the sequence.

a_1 = 3

So

a_n = 3 +0.25 (n-1)

Finally, the recursive formula is:

a_1 = 3\\\\a_n = a_ {(n-1)} +0.25

A clothing business finds there is a linear relationship between the number of shirts, Q ,it can sell and the price, P , it can
Vlad [161]

Answer:

P = -0.004Q + 149

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form of the linear equation is:

P=aQ+b

The slope of the equation (a) can be found by using the two given points (4,000; $133) and (27,000; $41)

a = \frac{\$41-\$133}{27,000-4,000}\\a=-0.004

Applying the point (4,000; $133) to the equation below yields in the linear equation for Price as a function of the number of shirts:

P-P_0=a(Q-Q_0)\\P-133=-0.004(Q-4,000)\\P = -0.004Q+149

The linear equation is:

P = -0.004Q + 149
