Jane buys a coat that is $18 off the orinigal price. This is a 30% discount. What is the original price of the coat?

1 answer:

6 0

Total cost - (total cost * 30%) = discounted price
$C - .3C = 18 \\ 
.7C =18 \\
C = \frac{18}{ \frac{7}{10}}\\
C=\frac{180}{7}\\
C= 25.7142857...$

Step One
======
Find the length of FO (see below)

All of the triangles are equilateral triangles. Label the center as O
FO = FE = sqrt(5) + sqrt(2)

Step Two
======
Drop a perpendicular bisector from O to the midpoint of FE. Label the midpoint as J. Find OJ

Sure the Pythagorean Theorem. Remember that OJ is a perpendicular bisector.

FO^2 = FJ^2 + OJ^2
FO = sqrt(5) + sqrt(2)
FJ = 1/2 [(sqrt(5) + sqrt(2)] \
OJ = ??

[Sqrt(5) + sqrt(2)]^2 = [1/2(sqrt(5) + sqrt(2) ] ^2 + OJ^2
5 + 2 + 2*sqrt(10) = [1/4 (5 + 2 + 2*sqrt(10) + OJ^2
7 + 2sqrt(10) = 1/4 (7 + 2sqrt(10)) + OJ^2 Multiply through by 4
28 + 8* sqrt(10) = 7 + 2sqrt(10) + 4 OJ^2 Subtract 7 + 2sqrt From both sides
21 + 6 sqrt(10) = 4OJ^2 Divide both sides by 4
21/4 + 6/4* sqrt(10) = OJ^2
21/4 + 3/2 * sqrt(10) = OJ^2 Take the square root of both sides.
sqrt OJ^2 = sqrt(21/4 + 3/2 sqrt(10) )
OJ = sqrt(21/4 + 3/2 sqrt(10) )

Step three
find h
h = 2 * OJ
h = 2* sqrt(21/4 + 3/2 sqrt(10) ) <<<<<< answer.

I tried solving it but I everytime I follow how its suppose to go, I dont get the right answer.

Answer:

B. 64.9

Step-by-step explanation:

A graphing calculator or spreadsheet can fit these points with an exponential curve. An appropriate answer for x=14 is about 73.3.

_____

<em>Comment on the answer choices</em>

The closest answer that makes any sense is 64.9. Often these problems are worked by someone who uses inappropriate rounding of intermediate results. I haven't found the magic set of numbers to get 64.9. About the lowest I can get is 66.7, using 0.0037·e^(0.7x).

To start off, simplify the equation if needed:
3m>=21
Since both sides are divisible by 3, you can simplify for the equation to be

m>=7

Next is to find the domain of the line graph. Since the sign is more than or equal to (>=), the circle is closed.
And since m is MORE THAN OR EQUAL TO, the section starts at 7 (closed circle), and continues after. Therefore, your answer will be the third selection.

A license plate consists of two letters followed by two digits; for example, $MP78$. Neither the digits nor the letters may be r

alex41 [277]

If in a number plate two different alphabets need to be selected then there are 650 such number plates that can be formed in such a way that the alphabets come in increasing order.

Given that a number plate can be formed using 2 alphabets which must come in increasing order.

We are required to find the number of plates that can be formed.

Number of total alphabets=26.

The number of plates will be equal to the number of ways in which two alphabets can be arranged.

Combination is the number of ways in which some combinations can be formed. It is expressed as n $C_{r}$ =n!/r!(n-r)!

Number of license plates=26 $C_{1}$ *25 $C_{1}$

=26*25

=650 plates

Hence If in a number plate two different alphabets need to be selected then there are 650 such number plates that can be formed in such a way that the alphabets come in increasing order.
