Answer:

J = 90

John has 90 dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find how much money John has. To find how much J equals we need to break it down.

We already know that Steven has 150 dollars. We also know that he has 30 less than two times the amount John has.

Steven has 30 less than two times the amount John has.

So 150 + 30 = 180

180 is two times the amount John has.

Because 180 is two times the amount John has we need to divide by two.

180 ÷ 2 = 90.

J = 90. Therefore John has 90 dollars.

This question was tricky! I hope I helped a little! Have a great day!!

Walden’s family is shopping for a reclining chair. The chair the family decided on has a retail price of $800 plus 5% sales tax
Marianna [84]

Answer:

B 10% off sale, with a total price to pay of 756

Step-by-step explanation:

Retail price (Rp) = $800

Taxes (T) = 5%

  • Offer A $75 instant rebate

Total price A (TA) = Rp - 75 + (Rp - 75) 5%

TA = 800 - 75 + (800-75) 5%

TA = 725 + 725 5%

725 5% = 725*5/100 = 36.25

TA= 725+36.25 = $761.25

  • Offer B 10% off sale

Total price B (TB) = RP - RP 10% + (RP - RP 10%) 5%

TB = 800 - 800 10% + (800 - 800 10%) 5%

800 10% = 800*10/100 = 80

TB = 800 - 80 + (800 - 80) 5%

TB = 720 + 720 5%

720 5% = 720*5/100 = 36

TB = 720 + 36 = $756

  • Offer C 5% off sale plus store pays sales tax

store pays sales tax means Walden's family will not need pay for taxes

Total price C (TC) = RP - RP 5%

TC = 800 - 800 5%

800 5% = 800*5/100 = 40

TC = 800 - 40 = $760

  • Offer D a “no tax” sale—the store pays the tax

Means that Walden's family will need pay just the retail price

TD = $800

The beast deal is from the store B

Which equation in slope-intercept form represents a line that passes through the point (6,−1) and is perpendicular to the line y
damaskus [11]

For this case we have that by definition, the equation of a line of the slope-intersection form is given by:

y = mx + b

Where:

m: It is the slope of the line

b: It is the cut point with the y axis

By definition, if two lines are perpendicular then the product of their slopes is -1.

If we have: y = 2x-7

m_ {1} = 2\\2 * m 2 = - 1\\m_ {2} = - \frac {1} {2}

Thus, the equation is of the form:

y = - \frac {1} {2} x + b

We substitute the point:

-1 = - \frac {1} {2} (6) + b\\-1 = - \frac {1} {2} (6) + b\\-1 = -3 + b\\-1 + 3 = b\\b = 2

Finally, the equation is:

y = - \frac {1} {2} x + 2

Answer:

y = - \frac {1} {2} x + 2

Help me with a ASAP plz and explain
max2010maxim [7]

(f+g)(x)=f(x)+g(x)=(2x-6)+(4x+7)=6x+1

(f-g)(x)=f(x)-g(x)=(2x-6)-(4x+7)=-2x-13

(fg)(x)=f(x)×g(x)=(2x-6)(4x+7)=8x^2-10x-42

(f+g)(-2)=f(-2)+g(-2)=(2(-2)-6)+(4(-2)+7)=-11

Can calculating area under curve expand to calculate volume of sphere
murzikaleks [220]
This is an application of integral calculus. The area under a curve could be expanded to determine the volume of a sphere if you revolve this area about a certain axis or a certain line. It should be given that the area is in the shape of either a half-circle or a quarter circle, so that it should form a sphere when revolved.
