No, it isn't!
first, the discount is 20 percent of 18 dollars, that is 18/5=3.6
this means that during the first week the prize is 18-3.6=14.4
now, the prize is marked up 20 % of 14.4! this is 2.88
so the prize later will be 14.4+2.88, that is 17.28, not 18
what is relevant here is what a number is a percent OF
z = (x - μ)/σ
Substituting given values, you have
3.6 = (x - 132)/20
(20)(3.6) = x - 132 . . . . multiply by 20
72 + 132 = x . . . . . . . . .add 132
204 = x
The value that has a z-score of 3.6 is 204.
Answer:
a scale factor of 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
if this was area, you would square. Therfore if it is only perimeter so you only have to multiply by the same number
Answer:
(-6, -5).
Step-by-step explanation:
If there is a zero between the integers there will be a change of sign of f(x).
x^3 + 5x^2 - x - 6
f(1) = 1 + 5 - 1 - 6 = -1
f(-1) = -1 + 5 + 1 - 6 = -1
f(2) = 8 + 20 - 2 -6 = 20
There' a change of sign between f(1) and f(2) so there is a zero between (1, 2).
f(-2) = -8 + 20 + 2 - 6= 6
So there is also a zero between -1 and -2. (-2, -1)
F(-4) = 14, f(-5) = -1 = change of sign so there is also a zero in (-5,-4)
f(-6) = -36 - no change in sign between -5 and -6.
