Answer:

Purchase price = $412.94 (nearest cent)

Total price = $430.49 (nearest cent)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Purchase price</u>

If 4.25% = $17.55

⇒ 100% = (17.55 ÷ 4.25) × 100 = 412.9411765...

⇒ Purchase price = $412.94 (nearest cent)

<u>Total price</u>

total price = purchase price + sales tax

                 = $412.94 + $17.55

                 = $430.49

So let the original price be x

  • 4.25% of x=17.55
  • 0.0425x=17.55
  • x=17.55÷0.0425
  • $412.94

Total price:-

  • 412.94+17.55
  • $430.49

• The outside temperature changes -4.8°F in 4 hours. What is the average change in temperature each hour?
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

-1.2°F

Step-by-step explanation:

-4.8F = 4 hours

Divide both sides by 4 to get one side to 1 hour

-4.8F/4 = 4 hours / 4

-1.2F = 1 hour

Sylvie finds the solution to the system of equations by graphing. y = x + 1 and y = x – 1 Which graph shows the solution to Sylv
jok3333 [9.3K]
The solution is undefined, the function is parallel. Also the two functions are lunar functions, mx+b=y.
M= slope
B=y-intercept (where it crosses the y-axis)

Rosalinda examined the angles at right and wrote the equation below.
jeyben [28]

a.  Does her equation make sense? If so,  explain why her equation  must be true.  If it  is not correct, determine what is incorrect and rewrite the equation.

b.  If you have not already done so, solve her equation, clearly showing all your  steps. What are the measures of the two angles?

c.  Verify  that your answer is correct.

The figure is attached below

Given : (2x+1) + (x-10) = 90

(a) Yes , the equation make sense because right angle is 90 degree. Also two angles make up 90 degree.

(b) solve for x,  (2x+1) + (x-10) = 90

2x+1 + x-10 = 90 ( combine like terms)

3x -9 = 90 (add 9 on both sides)

3x = 99

x = 33

One angle is 2x+1 = 2(33) +1 = 67 degrees

Another angle = x-10 = 33-10 = 23 degrees

(c) one angle + another angle = 90

67 + 23 = 90

So verified

If you open an account that compounds quarterly in 2020. In what year will it double the starting amount if it has an APR of 3.2
Lerok [7]

Answer:

It will double in the year 2063

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount deposited be $x, when it doubles, the amount becomes $2x

we can use the compound interest formula to know when this will happen

The compound interest formula is as follows;

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

In this question,

A is the amount which is 2 times the principal and this is $2x

P is called the principal and it is the amount deposited which is $x

r is the interest rate which is 3.2% = 3.2/100 = 0.032

n is the number of times compounding takes place per year which is quarterly which equals to 4

t is the number of years which we want to calculate.

Substituting all these into the equation, we have;

2x = x(1+0.032/4)^4t

divide through by x

2 = (1+ 0.008)^4t

2 = (1.008)^4t

we use logarithm here

Take log of both sides

log 2 = log (1.008)^2t

log 2 = 2t log 1.008

2t = log 2/log 1.008

2t = 86.98

t = 86.98/2

t =43.49 which is 43 years approximately

Thus the year the money will double will be 2020 + 43 years = 2063

Find the difference.<br><br> (4−5y)−2(3.5y−8)
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

-12y + 20

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you simplify each term:

apply the distributive property:

4 - 5y - 2 (3.5y) - 2 x -8

Multiply 3.5 by -2:

4 - 5y - 2 (3.5y) - 2 x -8

Multiply -2 by -8:

4 - 5y - 7y +16

Next, we simplify by adding terms:

Add 4 + 16:

-5y - 7y + 20

Subtract 7y from 5y:

-12y + 20

Hence the simplified form is -12y + 20
