If 4/5 of the population of a certain town is

kkurt [141]2 years ago
8 0

Hi! I'm happy to help!

Our town is composed of 2,000 people. Of those 2,000 people, 4/5 of them are middle class. The word 'of' usually means multiplication when it is in a word problem. So, we will multiply 2,000 by 4/5. When multiplying a whole number, we just multiply it by the numerator (top) and leave the denominator. (bottom)

2,000×4

8,000

8,000/5

Fractions are just a different way of putting division, so we can change this to a division problem:

8,000÷5=

1,600

1,600 of the people are middle class.

I hope this was helpful, keep learning! :D

Answer:

m∠3 = 64°

Since angle 2 and 3 seem to be complementary angles, we know that the meaning of complementary angles is to add both angles to 90 degrees.

Subtract 90 by the known value to get the value of ∠3

90 - 26 = 64

Help please and thank you

First, we can see that there are four sides, and none of these equation contradict each other, so it is safe to say that <em>this is a quadrilateral</em>.

Second, all of the equations have the slope of <em>0 or undefined</em>, so it is a rectangle.

Lastly, the four points of intersection shows us that the side lengths are <em>3 and 5</em> units, so the area of it is 15 units².

A(1)=20
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

-14

Step-by-step explanation:

You've got a(1)=20

a(1) means a(n) when n=1

the sequence is telling you to take the previous value of a(n), which is a(n-1) and subtract 17

then:

a(2) = a(1)-17 = 20 - 17 = 3

a(3) = a(2) - 17 = 3-17 = -14

In order to clear out room for new merchandise, James decided to mark down some of the items for sale in his electronics store.
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

a) Which item’s price was reduced by more, and by how many dollars more was it reduced?

The DVD player's price was reduced more by $3.82 than the stereo tuner's price.

b) Round all dollar values to the nearest cent.

Rounding $3.82 dollars to the nearest cents

$1 = 100 cents

$3.82 =

3.82 × 100 cents

= 382 cents

The DVD player's price was reduced by 382 cents more than the stereo tuner's price

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets day the original price of the DVD player was $100

We are told the price was marked down to 36%

36% of $100 = $36

$100 - $36 = $64

We are told the DVD cost $41.60 after the markdown.

Original cost of DVD =

$41.60/$64 × 100 = $65

Lets the original price of the Stereo player was $100

We are told the price was marked down to 22%

22% of $100 = $22

$100 - $22 = $78

We are told the DVD cost $69.42 after the markdown.

Original cost of Stereo =

$69.42/$78 × 100 = $89

DVD = $65 - $41.60 = $23.40 less 

Stereo = $89 - 69.42 = $19.58 less

Difference between the DVD and the Stereo is

$23.40 - $19.58 = $3.82

Therefore,the DVD player's price was reduced by $3.82 more than the stereo tuner's price

Rounding $3.82 dollars to the nearest cents

$1 = 100 cents

$3.82 =

3.82 × 100 cents

= 382 cents

The numbers inside the parenthesis is the value of x, uses the equation associated with the value of x and solve.

H(1) Since 1 fits 1≤x≤3 use x^3

x^3 1^3 = 1

h(1) = 1

h(4) 4 fits x >3, so use 5

h(4) = 5
