Answer:

He paid $ 531.8 for it

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Joshua sold his bike for $585

Since he sold it for 10% less than he paid for it, let the amount  he paid for it be x.

Then

x= $585 -(10 % of x)

=$585 - (0.1 x)

<u>Add 0.1x to both sides</u>

(1+0.1)x=585

1.1x=585

<u>Divide both sides by 1.1</u>

x=585/1.1

=531.8

There are 6 women and 5 men interviewing for 4 cashier positions at Walmart. In how many ways can the positions be filled if 2 w
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

The positions can be filled in 150 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

The order in which the people are chosen is not important. For example, A, B, C, D is the same outcome as B, A, C, D. So we use the combinations formula to solve this question.

Combinations formula:

C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

In how many ways can the positions be filled if 2 women and 2 men are hired?

2 women from a set of 6.

2 men from a set of 5.

So

T = C_{6,2} \times C_{5,2} = \frac{6!}{2!(6-2)!} \times \frac{5!}{2!(5-2)!} = 120

The positions can be filled in 150 ways.

I need help with this simple Geometry Question
Nostrana [21]

Answer: 132º

Step-by-step explanation:

Since <QSR is an inscribed angle, that means that the intercepted arc, which is arc QR, is twice the measure of that angle, which is 132º. Since <QPR is a center angle, it is equal to its center arc. So, <QPR is 132º.
