A boy spent 20% of his money on books and 20% of the remainder on food.If he had $2000 left, how much money did he have at first?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]\$3,125[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]s[/tex] represent the amount of money he initially started with.

After he spent 20% on books, he will have [tex]100\%-20\%=80\%[/tex] of his initial money left. We can represent this as [tex]0.8s[/tex].

Following that, the boy spends 20% of the remainder of his money on food. Similarly, he will have [tex]100\%-20\%=80\%[/tex] of the remainder of money he had left after he purchased the books. Therefore, he ends up with [tex]0.8(0.8s)=0.64s[/tex] of his money left.

Since we're given that he had $2,000 after all these transactions, we have the following equation:

[tex]0.64s=\$2,000[/tex]

Divide both sides by 0.64 to isolate and solve for [tex]s[/tex]:

[tex]s=\frac{2,000}{0.64}=\boxed{\$3,125}[/tex]

Therefore, the boy had $3,125 to begin with.

The yearly cost in dollars y, for a member at a video game arcade based on total game tokens purchased, x, is y=1/2x+6. A nonmember pays $20 per game token, but no yearly fee. Which equation represents the yearly cost for a nonmember at the same video game arcade based on the total number of game tokens purchased in a year?

Answers

Answer:

y = 20x

Step-by-step explanation:

For members

y = 1/2x + 6

Where,

y = yearly cost in dollars

x = total game tokens purchased

1/2 = cost of each game token

6 = yearly fee

For non members: without yearly fee

A nonmember pays $20 per game token

y = 20x represents the yearly cost for a nonmember at the same video game arcade based on the total number of game tokens purchased in a year

What is the value of y, if the standard deviation of 8, 8, 8, 8, y, 8 is 0?​

Answers

Answer:

y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we know that the equation for standard deviation is

σ = √((1/N)∑(xₐ-μ)²), with σ being the standard deviation, N being the count of numbers, xₐ being individual values, and μ being the mean. Working backwards, we have

0 = √((1/N)∑(xₐ-μ)²)

Squaring both sides, we get

0 = (1/N)∑(xₐ-μ)²

Since 1/N cannot be 0, we know that

0 = ∑(xₐ-μ)²

Since (xₐ-μ)² can only be ≥0, this means that each value of xₐ-μ must be equal to 0, so

0 = xₐ-μ for each a

xₐ = μ

This leads to the conclusion that each value is equal to the mean, so the mean must be 8.

The mean is equal to the sum / amount of numbers. There are 6 numbers, and the sum is (40+y). The mean is

8 = (40+y)/6

multiply both sides by 6

6*8 = 40+y

48 = 40 + y

This means that

y = 8

A certain medical test is known to detect 59% of the people who are afflicted with the disease Y. If 10 people with the disease are administered the test, what is the probability that the test will show that:

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P(x = 3) = 0.048[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]n = 10[/tex]

[tex]p=59\% = 0.59[/tex]

Required

[tex]P(x = 3)[/tex] --- probability that 3 are afflicted

This question illustrates binomial probability and it is calcuated using:

[tex]P(x) = ^nC_x * p^x * (1 - p)^{n-x}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]P(x = 3) = ^{10}C_3 * 0.59^3 * (1 - 0.59)^{10-3}[/tex]

[tex]P(x = 3) = ^{10}C_3 * 0.59^3 * 0.41^7[/tex]

[tex]P(x = 3) = 120 * 0.59^3 * 0.41^7[/tex]

[tex]P(x = 3) = 0.048[/tex]

An 80-mile trip is represented on a gridded map by a directed line segment from point M(3, 2) to point N(9,
13). What point represents 60 miles into the trip? Show your work and explain your reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the distance from M to N is 80 miles and we want to find the coordinates of the point 60 miles into the trip, we are looking for the point 3/4 of the way from M to N, since 60 is 3/4 of 80. This is the process:

First we need to consider that MN is a directed vector. We first find the components of the directed vector, which is found in the change in x and the change in y. First step, then, looks like this:

<Δx, Δy> = <9-3, 13-2> = <6, 11> We will call those the x and y components of the vector (which comes from vector study in both physics and math, so if you don't understand that, it's ok! Just follow the process here and you'll be fine). Knowing that 60 is 3/4 of the way from M to N, we find 3/4 of both the x and y components, like this:

[tex]<\frac{3}{4}(6), \frac{3}{4}(11)>[/tex] which will give us 3/4 of the change in x and 3/4 of the change in y:

[tex]<\frac{18}{4},\frac{33}{4}>=<4.5,8.25>[/tex]

Since we are going 3/4 of the way from M to N, we add that component to the x and y coordinates of M, giving us 3/4 of the way from M to N, which translates to 60 miles of the 80 mile trip:

(3 + 4.5, 2 + 8.25) = (7.5, 10.25)

Those are the coordinates of the point that represents 60 miles into the 80 mile trip.

Twenty of the 50 digital video recorders (DVRS) in an inventory are known to be detective What is the probability that a randomly selected item is defective?​

Answers

Answer:

3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that odds for plus odds against must be 1. Therefore, 20 out of 50 of the DVRs are defective, so 30 out of 50 would work.

30/50

simplifies into 3/5 so that would be the probability of you picking out a DVR that works, and the probability of picking one that does not work would be the leftover 2/5 . Or, if you're answering with a percent, you would have a 60% chance of picking a working DVR.

I hope this helps, I know the explanation isn't really clear, but I can't really think of another way to explain it.

Squaring both sides to remove the square root we get:

[tex]x^{2} +81=(x+10)^{2}[/tex]

[tex]x^{2} +81=(x+10)(x+10)[/tex]

A restaurant owner is planning to have a courtyard area sodded. The sod comes in rolls that are 3 feet long by 1 foot wide. If the courtyard measures 60 feet by 50 feet, which of the following expressions represents the number of rolls of sod needed?

Answers

Answer:

[tex](60\times 50)\div 3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Length of roll of sod, l=3 feet

Width of roll of sod, b=1 feet

Length of courtyard, L=60 feet

Breadth of courtyard, B=50 feet

Area of rectangle=[tex]Length\times breadth[/tex]

Using the formula

Area of roll of sod=[tex]3\times 1 feet^2[/tex]

Area of roll of sod=3 square feet

Area of courtyard=[tex]60\times 50[/tex] square feet

Number of rolls of sod needed=[tex]\frac{Area\;of\;courtyard}{area\;of\;roll\;of\;sod}[/tex]

Using the formula

Number of rolls of sod needed=[tex]\frac{60\times 50}{3}[/tex]

Number of rolls of sod needed=[tex](60\times 50)\div 3[/tex]

This is required expression which represents the number of rolls of sod needed.

What does the point (1994, 400) on the graph represent?

Answers

Answer: There are 400 tadpoles in the year 1994.

This is because any point is of the form (x,y) where in this case

x = year number

y = tadpole population number

So (x,y) = (1994, 400) means x = 1994 and y = 400 pair up together.

In short, the year x = 1994 corresponds to the population of y = 400 tadpoles.

From the years 1990 to 1992, the population is increasing since the curve goes upward when moving from left to right. Then from 1992 to 1993, the population decreases hitting its lowest point in that specific region. From 1993 to 1997, the population increases before it decreases again from 1997 to 1999.
