M is 20% less than N means
M is 100-20=80% of N
M=0.80 N
M/N = 0.8 = 4/5
Ratio: 4/5

When we know <em>a, </em>the average, and <em>n, </em>how many numbers there are, we know the sum <em>s</em>, because <em>a=s/n </em>so <em>s=na.</em>
So the sum of our six numbers is 6(3.5)=21 so the sum of the seven numbers is 21+4.2=25.2 so the average is 25.2/7 = 3.6
Answer: 3.6

|2p + 4 | < 3
At p=-2 the absolute value is zero. As p gets more negative the absolute value argument (inside part) gets negative and the absolute value gets bigger, more positive. Eventually the inside will be exactly -3, when
2p +4 = -3
2p = -7
p = -7/2 = -3 1/2
So p=-4 will make the inequality false, and p=-3 is the smallest integer that makes the inequality true.
Answer: -3

The distance from the origin is given by the Pythagorean Theorem and this one is a 3/4/5 right triangle:
Answer: .5 or 1/2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If you are saving 25%, you are still paying 75%, right? So the cost of the TV with a discount of 25% is 192.74(.75) which is $144.56
That's the cost of the TV on sale. Now we need to find the sales tax amount, if the sales tax is .05 as a decimal. We are paying $144.56 for the TV, which is 100% of the cost. On top of that, we are paying another 5%. So altogether, for the TV, we are paying 105% of the TV. Therefore,
144.56(1.05) = $151.79
Answer:
y=-5/8x+0
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
(5, 0 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
y = x² - 2x - 15 → (1)
y = 8x - 40 → (2)
Substitute y = x² - 2x - 15 into (2)
x² - 2x - 15 = 8x - 40 ( subtract 8x - 40 from both sides )
x² - 10x + 25 = 0 ← in standard form
(x - 5)² = 0 ← in factored form, thus
x - 5 = 0 ⇒ x = 5
Substitute x = 5 into (2) for corresponding value of y
y = 8(5) - 40 = 40 - 40 = 0
Solution is (5, 0 )
Solving a system of equations we can see that:
They need to use 80kg of the 60% chocolate and 20kg of the 40% chocolate.

How to find how much of each candy needs to be used?</h3>
Let's define the variables:
- x = kilograms of the 40% chocolate.
- y = kilograms of the 60% chocolate.
They want to make 100kg, then:
x + y = 100
And the concentration must be of the 56%, then we can write:
x*0.4 + y*0.6 = (100)*0.56 = 56
Then we have a system of equations:
x + y = 100
x*0.4 + y*0.6 = 56
To solve this, we can isolate x on the first equation to get:
x = 100 - y
Now replace that in the other equation:
(100 - y)*0.4 + y*0.6 = 56
40 + y*0.2 = 56
y*0.2 = 16
y = 16/0.2 = 80
This means that they need to use 80kg of the 60% chocolate and the other 20kg of the 40% chocolate.
