Step-by-step explanation:

This means the price of the book will decrease by 100%-30%=70%

70% decrease in x = 100% of x - 70% of x = 1x - 0.7x = (1 - 0.7)x = 0.3x So 0.3x represents a 70% decrease in x.

Notice that this multiplier .3 is the same as (30% of x).

the answer is 0.3.

Find the value of each missing variable. y=

e-lub [12.9K]

Step-by-step explanation:

29x - 3 + 15x + 7 = 180° because these two angles are supplementary

if we add like terms

44x + 4 = 180

44x = 176 divide both sides by 44

x = 4

29x - 3 = 13y - 17 because alternate exterior angles has same measurement

since we found the value of x let's rewrite the equation

4 × 29 - 3 = 13y - 17

113 = 13y - 17

130 = 13y divide both sides by 13

10 = y

When Tom found the difference −17 − (−12), he got −29. Complete the statement that explains what Tom might have done wrong.

ad-work [718]

Answer:

- 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that - (- 12) = + 12

Thus

- 17 - (- 12) = - 17 + 12 = - 5

It looks like Tom subtracted 12 from - 17, that is - 17 - 12 = - 29

The mean annual tuition and fees for a sample of 12 private colleges was 36,800 with a standard deviation of 5,000 . A dotplot s

Ilya [14]

Answer:

The value of the test statistic and degrees of freedom is 2.148 and 11 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The mean annual tuition and fees for a sample of 12 private colleges was 36,800 with a standard deviation of 5,000 .

Thus, n = 12, $\bar x=36800$ σ = 5000

degrees of freedom = n-1 = 12-1 = 11

$H_0: \mu = 33700\ and\ H_a: \mu \neq 33700$

Formula to find the value of z is: $z=\frac{\bar x-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

Where $\bar x$ is mean of sample, μ is the mean of population, σ is the standard deviation of population and n is number of observations.

$z=\frac{36800-33700}{\frac{5000}{\sqrt{12}}}$

$z=2.148$

Hence, the value of the test statistic and degrees of freedom is 2.148 and 11 respectively.

What is the product? (9 t minus 4)(negative 9 t minus 4) negative 81 t squared minus 16 negative 81 t squared + 16 negative 81 t

liraira [26]

The product is negative 81 t squared + 16 ⇒ 2nd answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of two binomials (ax + b)(cx + d), where a, b, c, and d are constant

Multiply (ax) by (cx) ⇒ 1st × 1st
Multiply (ax) by (d) and (b) by (cx) ⇒ ext-reams and nears
Add the two products ⇒ like terms
Multiply (b) by (d) ⇒ 2nd × 2nd

Let us find the product of (9 t - 4) and (-9 t - 4)

Multiply the 1st two terms

∵ (9 t)(-9 t) = -81 t²

Multiply the ext-reams

∵ (9 t)(-4) = -36 t

Multiply the nears

∵ (-4)(-9 t) = 36 t

Add the like terms

∵ -36 t + 36 t = 0

Multiply the 2nd two terms

∵ (-4)(-4) = 16

Write the answer

∴ (9 t - 4)(-9 t - 4) = -81 t² + 0 + 16

∴ (9 t - 4)(-9 t - 4) = -81 t² + 16

The product is -81 t² + 16
