The price of a stock decreased by 60 cents one week, decreased 10 cents the next week, and decreased another 20 cents the following week. What is the average change in the price of the stock over the three weeks? need to know right now ASAP!! –270 cents per week –90 cents per week –87 cents per week –30 cents per week
Hi there! Hopefully this helps!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It decreased by 30 cents per week.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The average rate of change is calculated as:
the ratio of the sum of the change in the three weeks divided by the number of weeks. (The number of weeks being 3)
Rate of change = [tex]\frac{-60 -10 -20}{3}[/tex].
(-60 + -10 + -20 = -90). So, to simplify it:
[tex]\frac{-90}{3}[/tex] = -30
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Incase you are confused:
Since the average rate of change is negative, this means that the stock price has decreased.

The length and width of a book cover are 22.2 centimeters and 12 centimeters respectively. The actual length (and width) can be 0.3 unit less than the measured length (and width) or 0.3 unit greater than the measured length (and width). a. Find the minimum and maximum possible lengths and widths of the book cover. b. Calculate the minimum and maximum possible areas of the book cover.
Part (a)
The length is supposed to be 22.2 cm, but it could be 0.3 cm less
So 22.2 - 0.3 = 21.9 cm is the smallest value for the length. This is the lower bound of the length.
The upper bound is 22.2 + 0.3 = 22.5 cm as it is the largest the length can get.
-------------
Use this for the width as well
The width is supposed to be 12 cm, but it could be as small as 12-0.3 = 11.7 cm and as large as 12+0.3 = 12.3 cm
-------------
Answers:smallest length = 21.9 cmlargest length = 22.5 cmsmallest width = 11.7 cmlargest width = 12.3 cm============================================
Part (b)
Use the smallest length and width to get the smallest possible area
smallest area = (smallest width)*(smallest length) = 11.7*21.9 = 256.23
-------------
Repeat the same idea but for the largest length and width to get the largest possible area
largest area = (largest width)*(largest length) = 12.3*22.5 = 276.75

Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
tan x = -1
[tex]x = tan^{-1}(-1)[/tex]
x = -45
tan x = 5
[tex]x = tan^{-1}(5)[/tex]
x = 78.69
Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
So we want to find the solutions to the two equations:
[tex]\tan(x)=-1 \text{ and } \tan(x)=5[/tex]
I)
[tex]\tan(x)=-1\\x=\tan^{-1}(-1)[/tex]
Recall the unit circle. First, note that the number inside tangent is negative. Because of this, we can be certain that the x (in radians) must be in Quadrant II and/or IV (This is because of All Students Take Calculus, where All is positive in QI, only Sine is positive in Q2, only Tangent is positive in Q3, and only Cosine is positive in QIV. Tangent is negative so the only possible choice are QII and QIV).
From the unit circle, we can see that x=3π/4 is a possible candidate since tan(3π/4)=-1.
Since tangent repeats every π, 7π/4 must also be an answer (because 3π/4 + π = 7π/4). And, as expected, 7π/4 is indeed in QIV.
Therefore, for the first equation, the solutions are:
[tex]x=3\pi/4 \text{ and } 7\pi/4[/tex]
II)
For the second equation, there is no exact value for which tangent of an angle would be equal to 5. Thus, we need to approximate.
So:
[tex]\tan(x)=5\\x=\tan^{-1}(5)\\x=\tan^{-1}(5) \text{ and } \tan^{-1}(5)+\pi[/tex]
We got the second answer because, like previously, tangent repeats every π, so we only need to add π to get the second answer.
In approximations, this is:
[tex]x\approx1.3734 \text{ and } x\approx4.5150[/tex]
Note: All the answers are in radians.

Step-by-step explanation:
1)First convert mixed fraction to improper fraction and them prime factorize
[tex]6\frac{1}{4} = \frac{25}{4}\\[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{\frac{25}{4}}= \sqrt{\frac{5*5}{2*2}}= \frac{5}{2} = 2 \frac{1}{2} \\\\[/tex]
2)
[tex](2 \frac{1}{2}- 1 \frac{1}{2})*1 \frac{1}{7}=( \frac{5}{2}- \frac{3}{2})* \frac{8}{7}\\\\\\= \frac{2}{2}* \frac{8}{7}\\\\=1* \frac{8}{7}= \frac{8}{7}\\\\\\=1 \frac{1}{7}[/tex]
3) 0.00706 = 7.06 * [tex]10^{-3}[/tex]
4) 144 = 12 * 12
12 = 6*2
6 = 2*3
Prime factorization of 144 = 2 * 3 * 2 * 2 * 3 *2
= 2⁴ * 3²
5) To find LCM, prime factorize 96 & 144
96 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 = 2⁵ * 3
144 = 2⁴ * 3²
LCM = 2⁵ * 3² = 32 * 9 = 288
6) HCF
105 = 7 * 5 * 3
135 = 5 * 3* 3 * 3
180 = 5 * 3 * 3 * 2 * 2
HCF = 5 * 3 = 15

Find the area of quadrilateral...
Answer:
Total area = 29.8 sq. units
Step-by-step explanation:
area of each triangle = sqrt(s * (s-a) * (s-b) * (s-c))
to get the value of s, use the semi-perimeter = s = perimeter / 2
Total area = area of triangle ABD + area of triangle ACD
semi-perimeter of ABD = (3.48 + 8.66 + 8.6) / 2 = 10.37
semi-perimeter of ABD = (3.54 + 8.84 + 8.6) / 2 = 10.49
area of triangle ABD = sqrt(10.37 * (10.37-3.48) * (10.37-8.66) * (10.37-8.6))
area of triangle ABD = 14.7 sq. units
area of triangle ACD = sqrt(10.49 * (10.49-3.54) * (10.49-8.84) * (10.49-8.6))
area of triangle ACD = 15.08
Total area = 14.7 + 15.1
Total area = 29.8 sq. units

Musah stands at the center of a rectangular field.He takes 50 steps north,then 25 steps West and finally 50 on a bearing of 315°. Sketch Musah's movement How far west is Musah's final point from the center? How far north is Musah's final point from the center?
Answer:
The distance of Musah's final point from the center in the west direction is 60.355 steps
The distance of Musah's final point from the center in the north direction is 85.355 steps
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Musah stands at the center of a rectangular field.
He takes 50 steps north, then 25 steps West and finally 50 on a bearing of 315°.
The sketch for Musah's movement is seen in the attached file below.
How far west is Musah's final point from the centre?
In order to determine how far west is Musah's,
Let d be the distance of how far west;
Then d = BC + CD cos θ
In the North West direction,
cos θ = cos 45°
d = 25 + 50( cos 45°)
d = 25 + 50([tex]\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}[/tex] )
d = 25 + 50( 0.7071)
d =25 + 35.355
d = 60.355 steps
How far north is Musah's final point from the center?
Let d₁ be the distance of how far North;
Then d₁ = AB + CD sin θ
d₁ = 50 + 50 sin 45°
d₁ = 50 + 50([tex]\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}[/tex] )
d₁ = 50 + 50( 0.7071)
d₁ = 50 + 35.355
d₁ = 85.355 steps
The subject is operations on rational expressions.
The instructions are add or subtract the following expressions. Remember to find a common denominator when necessary. Reduce all answers to lowest terms.
Answer:
[tex]\frac{2(x-1)(2x+9)}{(x-3)(x-2)}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{4x}{(x-3)}+\frac{6}{(x+2)}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{4x(x+2)}{(x-3)(x+2)}+\frac{6(x-3)}{(x+2)(x-3)}[/tex]
Now we have done the denominators of each term of the expression equal.
Further we add the terms,
[tex]\frac{4x(x+2)}{(x-3)(x+2)}+\frac{6(x-3)}{(x+2)(x-3)}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{4x(x+2)+6(x-3)}{(x-3)(x+2)}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{4x^{2}+8x+6x-18}{(x-3)(x+2)}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{4x^{2}+14x-18}{(x-3)(x-2)}[/tex]
Now factorize the numerator of the fraction.
4x² + 14x - 18 = 2(2x² + 7x - 9)
= 2(2x² + 9x - 2x - 9)
= 2[x(2x + 9) - 1(2x + 9)]
= 2(x - 1)(2x + 9)
Therefore, [tex]\frac{2(x-1)(2x+9)}{(x-3)(x-2)}[/tex] will be the answer.

How many significant figures does each value contain? 5.6803 kg has significant figures. 0.00047 seconds has significant figures. 0.240 miles has significant figures.
Answer:
5.6803 has five significant figures.
0.00047 has two significant figures.
0.240 has three significant figures.
What are Significant Figures?Significant figures are numbers that are necessary to express a true value.
Place the values in scientific notation.
[tex]5.6803 * 10^{0} = 5.6803\\\\4.7 * 10^{-4} = 0.00047\\\\2.4 * 10^{-1}=0.240[/tex]
Explanation5.6803
The zero that is within 5.6803 is "trapped," meaning it is in between two nonzero digits. Therefore, all five digits are significant figures.
This answer is also already in scientific notation because 5.6803 satisfies the inequality [tex]1 < x < 10[/tex], which decides if a number is correctly written in scientific notation or not.
0.00047
The zeroes that precede the 4 and the 7 are not significant because they are dropped in scientific notation and are not trapped by other nonzero digits. Therefore, only two digits of this value are significant.
0.240
Since the zero at the end of 0.240 is a trailing zero, it is significant along with the 2 and the 4. The zero that precedes these digits and the decimal point is not significant. Therefore, only three digits of this value are significant.
Therefore:
5.6803 has five significant figures.
0.00047 has two significant figures.
0.240 has three significant figures.

In a family with children, the probability that all the children are girls is appoximately . In a random sample of 1000 families with children, what is the approximate probability that or fewer will have girls? Approximate a binomial distribution with a normal distribution.
Answer:
The probability that 100 or fewer will have 3 girls is 0.00734.
Step-by-step explanation:
The complete question is:
In a family with 3 children, the probability that all the children are girls is approximately 0.125. In a random sample of 1000 families with 3 children, what is the approximate probability that 100 or fewer will have 3 girls? Approximate a binomial distribution with a normal distribution.
Solution:
Let X represent the number of families who has 3 girls.
The random variable X follows a Binomial distribution with parameters n = 1000 and p = 0.125.
But the sample selected is too large.
So a Normal approximation to binomial can be applied to approximate the distribution of X if the following conditions are satisfied:
1. np ≥ 10
2. n(1 - p) ≥ 10
Check the conditions as follows:
[tex]np=1000\times 0.125=125>10\\\\n(1-p)=1000\times (1-0.125)=875>10[/tex]
Thus, a Normal approximation to binomial can be applied.
So, [tex]X\sim N(\mu=np,\sigma^{2}=np(1-p))[/tex]
The mean and standard deviation are:
[tex]\mu=np=1000\times 0.125=125\\\\\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{1000\times 0.125\times (1-0.125)}=10.46[/tex]
Compute the probability that 100 or fewer will have 3 girls as follows:
Apply Continuity correction:
[tex]P(X\leq 100)=P(X<100-0.50)[/tex]
[tex]=P(X<99.50)\\\\=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{99.5-125}{10.46})\\\\=P(Z<-2.44)\\\\=0.00734[/tex]
*Use a z-table.
Thus, the probability that 100 or fewer will have 3 girls is 0.00734.
Barbara Cusumano worked 60 hours last week. Of those hours, 40 hours were paid at the regular-time rate of $12.50 an hour, 18 hours at the time-and-a-half rate, and 2 hours at the double-time rate. What was Barbara's gross pay for the week?
Answer:

total angle of a hexagon is 720. We know already 510°. That leaves 210°. The ratio between the two angles is 2:1, therefore angle CDE is 140° and angle DEF is 70 °
Answer:
140°
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that all of these angles here are part of a hexagon, meaning that their angle measures will all add up to 720°.
We can use what we already know and find what CDE and DEF will add up to.
[tex]145+90+160+115=510\\720-510=210[/tex]
Now, assuming x is the measure of DEF, we can create an equation for this.
[tex]x + 2x = 210\\3x = 210\\x = 70[/tex]
This is the measure of DEF, but it asks for CDE, which is twice the size of DEF. So
[tex]70\cdot2=140[/tex]
We can double check this is right by adding up all the measures.
[tex]145+90+160+115+140+70=720[/tex]

Answer:
The two integers are greater than or equal to 17 and 19
Step-by-step explanation:
Consecutive odd integers means 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 and so on
That means there is a always a gap of 2 in between each of them. Knowing this, we can set up an equation. Let x represent the first of the consecutive integers.
x+(x+2)=36
x+2 represents the second consecutive interger
x+x=34
2x=34
x=17
The two integers are 17 and 19
Simplify:
[tex] \sqrt[4]{6 ^{4} } [/tex]
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
Doing the fourth root of something is the equivalent of doing said number to the power of 1/4. So in this case I will convert the fourth root into an exponent and simplify:
6^(4*1/4) = 6^1 = 6

Chantal is driving on a highway at a steady speed. She drives 55 miles every hour. Let d be the total distance in miles and let h be the number of hours.
Write an equation that represents the situation. I'll give out the brainliest if you get it right.
Answer:
[tex] d = 55h [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that Chantal drives at a constant speed of 55 miles per hour.
If, d represents the total distance in miles, and
h represents number of hours, the following equation can be used to express the given situation:
[tex] d = 55h [/tex]
For every hour, a distance of 55 miles is covered.
Thus, if h = 1, [tex] d = 55(1) = 55 miles [/tex]
If h = 2, [tex] d = 55(2) = 110 miles [/tex].
Therefore, [tex] d = 55h [/tex] , is an ideal equation that represents the situation given in the question above.
