Answer:

The price was $391.30.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can answer this using algebra:-

Let the original price be $x, then:

x + 15% of x = 450

x + 0.15x = 450

1.15x = 450

x = 450/1.15

x = 391.304

Find the area of the parallelogram whose vertices are given below. ​A(negative 2​,2​) ​B(2​,0​) ​C(10​,3​) ​D(6​,5​)
swat32

Answer: Area of Parallelogram is 28 units squared.

Step-by-step explanation:

Knowing, any two vector sides of a parallelogram sharing the same initial point, we can find the area of parallelogram that two vectors are shaping, using the cross product of these two vectors a×b, where the area is given by

Area= |a×b| ___ (1)

From the given points,we may choose any three of them such and find a two vector and expresses the sides of parallelogram " or one side and a diagonal of parallelogram" ,we may choose for example B ,C and D.

Moreover, we may choose point B, to be common point for the two sides " the initial point of two vector" thus we need to find vector BD and vector BC .

Calculations are given in picture.

A ship leaves port at 1:00 P.M. and travels S35°E at the rate of 27 mi/hr. Another ship leaves the same port at 1:30 P.M. and tr
Len [333]

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. You must apply the Law of Cosines, as you can see in the figure attached. Then:

- The first ship travels at 27 mi/hr in for two hours. Therefore, the side a is:

a=(27 mi/hr)(2 hr)=54mi

- The second ship travels at 18 mi/hr for 1.5 hours. Therefore, the side b is:

b=(18mi/hr)(1.5hr)=27mi

- Now, you can calculate c:

c=\sqrt{54^{2}+27^{2}-2(54)(27)Cos(55)}=44 mi

The answer is: 44 miles

It's a y=mx+b equation, Carries' would be y=1/2 x - 125 (total profit is equal to the cupcake amount, each sold for 50 cents - the startup cost of 125). Juanita's would be y=2.25x-125. Comparing Carries' to Juanita's sales would mean that you would multiply x by 3 (no less than 3 times the ..). I may elaborate further on comparing in the comment section
