Jackson at the collectibles fair. He has exactly $8 and will purchase a collectible from a vendor for $5. What percent of his mo

ney will Jackson spend on the purchase?
Mathematics
1 answer:
lisabon 2012 [21]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

62.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Total money with Jackson = $8

Money spent for buying collectible  = $5

__________________________________________________

Percentage of any number A with respect to another number B is calculated by multiplying fraction A/B with 100

Numerically A as percentage of b will be expressed as (A/B)100 %

It means that if there are 100 items instead of B item then what will be the value of A.

______________________________________________________

Percentage of money spent = (Money spent for buying collectible /Total money with Jackson)

Substituting the total money and money spent for buying collectible

we have

Percentage of money spent  = 5/8 * 100 = 0.625*100 = 62.5%

Thus, 62.5% percent of his money will Jackson spend on the purchase of collectible.

densk [106]

Answer:

√(p²-4q)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Quadratic Formula, we can say that

x = ( -p ± √(p²-4(1)(q))) / 2(1)  with the 1 representing the coefficient of x². Simplifying, we get

x = ( -p ± √(p²-4q)) / 2

The roots of the function are therefore at

x = ( -p + √(p²-4q)) / 2 and x = ( -p - √(p²-4q)) / 2. The difference of the roots is thus

( -p + √(p²-4q)) / 2 - ( ( -p - √(p²-4q)) / 2)

= 0 + 2 √(p²-4q)/2

= √(p²-4q)

Can someone help me with this? Please this would mean so much.

Answers:

x = angle MLN = 35 degrees

angle FLJ = 55 degrees

=================================================

Explanation:

This problem is fairly tricky if you're not sure what to look for. A slight clue is that they've marked a red point that strangely doesn't have a label on it. It's a fairly small point but it's definitely there if you look closely. While this point's location isn't exactly what we want, we're fairly close. Start at point L and draw a ray through the center point P. Ray LP will intersect the circle at point A, as shown in the diagram below.

From here, draw segments FA and MA. Now notice that inscribed angle LMF = 55 and inscribed angle FAL both subtend the same arc. The term "subtend" basically means "cut off". This arc that the inscribed angles subtend is minor arc FL. A minor arc is where you travel the shorter path around the circle, which indicates its measure is less than 180 degrees.

Since inscribed angles LMF and FAL subtend the same minor arc, this makes the inscribed angles to be congruent.

In short: angle FAL is 55 degrees

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

Segment LA goes through the center P. Through Thales theorem, we know that inscribed angle LFA is 90 degrees. Consequently, we can determine that inscribed angle FLA is 90-55 = 35 degrees.

Segment JL is tangent to the circle, meaning that angle ALJ is 90 degrees. So angle FLJ is 90-35 = 55 degrees.

It's not a coincidence that angle FLJ, angle FAL, and angle LMF are the same measure.

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

We found that angle FAL was 55 degrees. Applying Thales theorem again shows that angle MAF is 90 degrees. Therefore, angle LAM is 90-55 = 35 degrees.

Focus now on triangle LMA. This is also a right triangle (Thales Theorem). The upper acute angle we found was angle LAM = 35, so the lower acute angle is ALM = 55.

Then we can find angle MLN = (angle ALN) - (angle ALM) = 90 - 55 = 35

In short, angle MLN = 35 degrees

Similar to the previous section, it is not a coincidence that angles LFM, LAM and MLN are the same measure.

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

As an alternative, since we know angle FLJ = 55, and angle FLM is 90 degrees, this means...

(angle FLJ)+(angle FLM) + (angle MLN) = 180

55 + 90 + angle MLN = 180

145 + angle MLN = 180

angle MLN = 180 - 145

angle MLN = 35 degrees

You take out $50,000 for loans during your college career. You must pay it back with 7% APR for 20 years, making monthly payment
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The monthly payment for the loan amount for 20 years is $806.167

Step-by-step explanation:

The principal loan amount= $ 50,000

The rate of interest = 7 %

the time period of loan = 20 years = 20 × 12 = 240 months

let the amount after 20 years = $ A

<u>From Compounded method</u>

Amount = Principal × (1+\dfrac{\textrm rate}{100})^{\textrm Time}

or, A = 50,000 × (1+\dfrac{\textrm 7}{100})^{\textrm 20}

or, A = 50,000 × (1.07)^{20}

Or, A = 50,000 × 3.8696

∴ Amount = $ 193,480

So, The amount after 20 years = $ 193,480

The monthly payment amount = $ \frac{193480}{240} = $ 806.167

Hence The monthly payment for the loan amount for 20 years is $806.167 Answer

Suppose you are climbing a hill whose shape is given by the equation z = 1300 − 0.005x2 − 0.01y2, where x, y, and z are measured
Lisa [10]

Answer:

a) "ascend"

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

The equation is  z = 1300-0.005x^2-0.01y^2

This question is asking for the value of the directional derivative in the direction of -j [since south that's y negative]

So, this is the negative of partial derivative of y. Thus we have:

z = 1300-0.005x^2-0.01y^2\\z_y=-0.02y

Now we are at (100,120,1106), we take y value of 120 and put it in the partial:

z_y=-0.02y\\z_y=-0.02(120)\\z_y=-2.4

We take the negative, that is -(-2.4) = 2.4

Since this is positive, we can say the hill is sloping upward at this point, so you will start to ascend.
