Iceberg lettuce is grown and shipped to stores for about 40 cents a head, and consumers purchase it for about 92 cents a head. Find the percent increase.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 130%

Step-by-step explanation:

percent increase = x

[tex]40 + 40(x) = 9240\\40(1 + x) = 92\\1+x=\frac{92}{40} \\x=\frac{92}{40} -1=2.3-1=1.3[/tex]

x = 1.3 = 130%

You flip a coin that is not fair, the prbability of heads on each flip is 0.7. if the coin shows heads, you draw a marble from urn h with 1 blue and 4 red marbles. if the coin shows tails, you draw a marble from urn t with 3 blue and 1 red marble. Find the following probabilities:

a. The probability of choosing a red marble.
b. The probability of choosing a blue marble, given that the coin showed heads.
c. The probability that the coin showed tails, given that the marble was red.

Answers

Solution :

P(H) = 0.7  ;  P(T) = 0.3

If heads, then Urn H,  1 blue and 4 red marbles.

If tails, then Urn T ,  3 blue and 1 red marbles.

a).

P ( choosing a Red marble )

= P (H) x P( Red from Urn H) + P (T) x P( Red from Urn T)

[tex]$=0.7 \times \frac{4}{5} + 0.3 \times \frac{1}{4}$[/tex]

= 0.56 + 0.075

= 0.635

b).  If P (B, if coin showed heads)

If heads, then marble is picked from Urn H.

Therefore,

P (Blue) [tex]$=\frac{1}{5}$[/tex]

             = 0.2

c). P (Tails, if marble was red)

[tex]$=P (T/R) = \frac{P(R/T)}{P(R)} \ P(T)$[/tex]

Where P (R/T) = P ( red, if coin showed tails)

                        [tex]$=\frac{1}{4}$[/tex]

                        = 0.25 (As Urn T is chosen)

P (R) =  P (Red) = 0.635 (from part (a) )

P (T) = P (Tails) = 0.3

∴ [tex]$P(T/R) = \frac{0.25 \times 0.3}{0.635}$[/tex]

                = 0.118

Answers

Answer:

  f(7) = 154

Step-by-step explanation:

The basic idea is you put 7 where x is and do the arithmetic.

Polynomial evaluation is sometimes easier if you rewrite it to Horner form.

  f(x) = (4x -7)x +7

  f(7) = (4·7 -7)(7) +7 = 21(7) +7 = 147 +7

  f(7) = 154

The perimeter of a triangle is 83 centimeters. If two sides are equally long and the third side is 8 centimeters longer than the others, find the lengths of the three sides.

Answers

Answer:

25, 33

Step-by-step explanation:

let the length of the one with equal sides be x

third side = x+8

x+x+x+8 = 83

3x+8 = 83

3x = 75

x = 25

x+8 = 25+8 = 33

Answers

Answer:

x = 2AC = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint divides the segment into two equal lengths:

  AB = BC

  8 = 4x

  2 = x

  AB = 5(2) -2 = 8

Answer:

The family of directions of the given vector is represented by [tex]\theta = 323.130^{\circ} \pm 360\cdot i[/tex], [tex]\forall \,i\in \mathbb{N}_{O}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given information, vector stands in the 4th Quadrant ([tex]x > 0[/tex], [tex]y < 0[/tex]) and direction of the vector ([tex]\theta[/tex]) in sexagesimal degrees, is determined by following definition:

[tex]\theta = 360^{\circ} - \tan^{-1} \left(\frac{|y|}{|x|} \right)\pm 360\cdot i[/tex], [tex]\forall \,i\in \mathbb{N}_{O}[/tex]

Please notice that angle represents a function with a periodicity of 360°.

If we know that [tex]x = 4[/tex] and [tex]y = -3[/tex], then the direction of the vector is:

[tex]\theta = 360^{\circ}-\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{|-3|}{|4|} \right)\pm 360\cdot i[/tex]

[tex]\theta = 323.130^{\circ} \pm 360\cdot i[/tex]

The family of directions of the given vector is represented by [tex]\theta = 323.130^{\circ} \pm 360\cdot i[/tex], [tex]\forall \,i\in \mathbb{N}_{O}[/tex].

Polynomials with odd degrees typically make a "u-shaped graph" and polynomials with even degrees typically make an "s-shaped" graph.
True
False

Answers

the answer is True :)

The statement that odd degree polynomials have a u-shaped graph and even degree polynomials have an s-shaped graph is FALSE.

What do odd degree polynomials look like on a graph?

Odd degree polynomials have branches that go in opposing directions which means that they will form an s-shaped graph.

Even degree polynomials on the other hand, have graphs that go in the same direction which is why they form u-shaped graphs.

In conclusion, the above statement is false.

The function h(x) is quadratic and h(3) = h(-10) = 0. Which could represent h(x)?

1) h(x) = x2 - 13x - 30
2) h(x) = x2 - 7x - 30
3) h(x) = 2x2 + 26x - 60
4) h(x) = 2x2 + 14x - 60

Answers

Answer:

h(x) = 2x^2 +14x -60

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic is of the form

h(x) = ax^2 + bx +c

h(3) = h(-10) = 0

This tells us that the zeros are at x=3 and x = -10

We can write the equation in the form

h(x) = a( x-z1)(x-z2) where z1 and z2 are the zeros

h(x) = a(x-3) (x- -10)

h(x) = a(x-3) (x+10)

FOIL

h(x) = a( x^2 -3x+10x-30)

h(x) = a(x^2 +7x -30)

Let a = 2

h(x) = 2x^2 +14x -60

It means

zeros are 3 and -10
