Answer: Expression 1)  Neither of these.

Expression 2) Find the dollar amount of the tax,then added it to the price before tax.

Expression 3) Neither of these.

Expression 4) find the percentage of the original price Jack has to pay,then convert the percentage to a decimal and multiply to the final price.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of the diamond pony be $P.......(1)

Diamond pony tax percentage =25%

Diamond pony tax amount= 25% of P......(2)

=0.25 of P=$0.25 P............(3)

Case 1) If we add tax amount to the Price of diamond pony then it gives

 P+0.25P......(by adding (1) and (3))

=P(1+0.25)........(by taking P as common outside )

=P(1.25)=1.25P......> which is the original price which jack has to pay.

Case 2) Now if we add (1) and (2),we get

P+25%of P=100%P+25%P......(as it doesn't make any difference∵100% of P =P)

=(100+25)%P(by taking P as common outside )

=125%P=1.25P......> which is the original price which jack has to pay.

The function f(x) = (x − 4)(x − 2) is shown. What is the range of the function?
leonid [27]

The range of the quadratic function is [-1, ∞) after plotting the function on the coordinate plane.

<h3>What is a function?</h3>

It is defined as a special type of relationship, and they have a predefined domain and range according to the function every value in the domain is related to exactly one value in the range.

It is given that:

The function is:

f(x) = (x - 4)(x - 2)

The above function is a quadratic function.

The above function can be written as:

f(x) = x² - 6x + 8

From the graph,

The minimum value of graph at x = 3 is y = -1

The range of the function is [-1, ∞)

Thus, the range of the quadratic function is [-1, ∞) after plotting the function on the coordinate plane.

A 95% confidence interval estimate for a population mean u is determined to be 75.38 to 86.52. If the confidence level is reduce
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

C. becomes narrower

Step-by-step explanation:

If the confidence level is reduced from 95% to 90%, then, the confidence interval for u becomes narrower, i.e., we are less sure that the true value of u is contained inside the new interval. With a 95% confidence interval there is a probability of 0.95 that the parameter u is inside the interval and with a 90% confidence interval there is a probability of 0.90 that the parameter u is inside the interval.
