Answer: $103
Explanation:
Stores will markup an item to make a profit so this question is asking how much they will be selling the shoes to the customer.
To solve this problem we will start by multiplying the price the store payed for (55.25) by the percentage in decimal form (.87)
55.25•0.87=48.0675

We then add the markup to the price payed for the shoes.
55.25+48.0675=103.3175

When rounding to the nearest dollar we look at the digit in the tens place (3) and since 3 is < 5 we round the final price to $103

Make a list of 5 numbers with a mean of 12 and a mode of 15. <br><br> Explain if you can
mart [117]

The mean is the average value of the numbers given in the series

The mode is the number that is appears more than any other number given in the series

Step-by-step explanation:

Given challenge is make a list of 5 numbers

The list of 5 number is = 8,10,12,15,15

Mean value = (8+10+12+15+15)/5 =60/5 = 12

so required mean is 12 has been computed

Mode = 15 ( the number 12 is appeared in two times 8,10,12,15,15)

Final answer

The required numbers are = 8,10,12,15,15

A triangular lot has sides of 215m, 185m, and 125m. Find the measures of the angles at its corners
Vlada [557]

Answer:

The measures of the angles at its corners are 59.1\°,35.4\°,85.5\°

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

step 1

Find the measure of angle A

Applying the law of cosines

185^{2}= 215^{2}+125^{2}-2(215)(125)cos(A)

2(215)(125)cos(A)= 215^{2}+125^{2}-185^{2}

cos(A)= [215^{2}+125^{2}-185^{2}]/(2(215)(125))cos(A)=0.513953

A=arccos(0.513953)=59.1\°

step 2

Find the measure of angle B

Applying the law of cosines

125^{2}= 215^{2}+185^{2}-2(215)(185)cos(B)

2(215)(185)cos(B)= 215^{2}+185^{2}-125^{2}

cos(B)= [215^{2}+185^{2}-125^{2}]/(2(215)(185))cos(B)=0.81489

B=arccos(0.81489)=35.4\°

step 3

Find the measure of angle C

Applying the law of cosines

215^{2}= 125^{2}+185^{2}-2(125)(185)cos(C)

2(125)(185)cos(C)= 125^{2}+185^{2}-215^{2}

cos(C)= [125^{2}+185^{2}-215^{2}]/(2(125)(185))cos(C)=0.0784

C=arccos(0.0784)=85.5\°

Nth term to 4 1 -2 -5 -8
AURORKA [14]

4

4 - 3 = 1

1 - 3 = -2

-2 - 3 = -5

-5 - 3 = -8

It's the arithmetic sequence.

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d

a_1=4,\ d=-3

substitute

a_n=4+(n-1)(-3)=4-3n+3=-3n+7

Answer: a_n=-3n+7
