Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. A boat is marked up 20% on the original price. The original price was $50. What is the sale price of the boat before sales tax?

$50(1+0.20) = <u>$60</u>

                                                                                 

2. Fred buys a video game disk for $4. There was a discount of 20%. What is the sales price?

$4(1-0.2) = <u>$3.20</u>

3. A painting is on sale at 50% off. The sale price is $320. What was the original price?

X*(1-0.5) = $320

X = $320/0.5

X = $640

Given the exponential equation 4x = 64, what is the logarithmic form of the equation in base 10?
zysi [14]
4^{x} = 64

By taking <span>logarithmic of base 10

∴ </span><span>log 4^{x} = log 64

∴ x log 4 = log 64

∴ x =  \frac{log \ 64}{log \ 4}
note: we don't need to write the base in case of the base =10

∴ The correct choice is
</span><span>x = log base 10 of 64, all over log base 10 of 4</span>

What are the vertex and x-intercepts of the graph of the function given below?
Travka [436]
In order to determine the vertex of this, you can complete the square.  To do that, first set the equation equal to 0, then move the -35 over to the other side by adding.  That gives us x^{2} -2x=35.  Now we can complete the square.  Do this by taking half of the linear term, squaring it, and adding it in to both sides.  Our linear term is 2x.  Half of 2 is 1, and 1 squared is 1.  So we add 1 to both sides, creating something that looks like this: x^{2} -2x+1=35+1.  We will do the math on the right and get 36, and the left will be expressed as the perfect square binomial we created by doing this whole process.  (x-1)^2=36.  Now move the 36 over by subtraction and set it back to equal y and your vertex is apparent.  It is (1, -36).  You find the x-intercepts when y = 0.  That means you need to set your original equation equal to zero and factor it.  The easiest, surest way to do this is to use the quadratic formula.  Doing that gives us x values of 7 and -5.  And you're done!

Write an equation for the line perpendicular to the line y= -2/3+7 which passes through the point (-5,6)
zysi [14]
Y = -2/3x + 7.....the slope here is -2/3. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All tht means is take the original slope, flip it, and change the sign. So we take -2/3....flip it making it -3/2.....change the sign making it 3/2. So ur perpendicular line will have a slope of 3/2.

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3/2
(-5,6)....x = -5 and y = 6
now sub and find b, the y int
6 = 3/2(-5) + b
6 = -15/2 + b
6 + 15/2 = b
12/2 + 15/2 = b
27/2 = b
so ur perpendicular equation is : y = 3/2x + 27/2 <==

Carlos ran a concession stand last Saturday and made $63.90 from selling a total of 41 hot dogs and hamburgers. Each hot dog sol
Keith_Richards [23]

The number of hot dogs, x is 36 and hamburgers, y is 5 were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Carlos ran a concession stand last Saturday and made $63.90 from

a total of 41 hot dogs and hamburgers. Each hot dog sold for $1.40

and each hamburger sold for $2.70

1. The number of hot dogs is x, and hamburgers is y

2. He made $63.90 from a total of 41 hot dogs and hamburgers

3. Each hot dog sold for $1.40 and each hamburger sold for $2.70

We need to find the number of hot dogs and hamburgers, that were sold

∵ The number of hot dogs is x, and hamburgers is y

∵ He sold 41 hot dogs and hamburgers

∴ x + y = 41 ⇒ (1)

∵ Each hot dog sold for $1.40 and each hamburger sold for $2.70

∵ He sold x hot dogs and y hamburgers

∵ He made $63.90 from sold them

∴ 1.4 x + 2.7 y = 63.9 ⇒ (2)

Let Us solve the system of equations to find x and y

Multiply equation (1) by -2.7 to eliminate y

∵ (-2.7)x + (-2.7)y = (-2.7)(41)

∴ -2.7 x - 2.7 y = -110.7 ⇒ (3)

- Add equations (2) and (3)

∴ -1.3 x = -46.8

- Divide both sides by -1.3

∴ x = 36

Substitute the value of x in equation (1) to find y

∵ x + y = 41 ⇒ (1)

∴ 36 + y = 41

- Subtract 36 from both sides

∴ y = 5

The number of hot dogs, x is 36 and hamburgers, y is 5 were sold

For the matrices below. Find all (real) eigenvalues. <br><br> A= [7 9]<br> [0 9]
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

The answer is "9 and 7".

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}7&9\\0&9\end{array}\right]

Using formula:

|A-\lambda \cdot I|= 0\\\\

\to |\left[\begin{array}{cc}7&9\\0&9\end{array}\right]-\lambda \left[\begin{array}{cc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right] |=0\\\\\\ \to |\left[\begin{array}{cc}7&9\\0&9\end{array}\right]- \left[\begin{array}{cc}\lambda&0\\0&\lambda\end{array}\right] |=0\\\\\\\to|\left[\begin{array}{cc}7-\lambda &9\\0&9-\lambda\end{array}\right]|=0\\\\\\\to|(7-\lambda)(9-\lambda)|=0\\\\\to (7-\lambda)(9-\lambda)=0\\\\\to 7-\lambda=0 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 9-\lambda=0\\\\

\to \lambda=7 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \lambda=9\\\\
