If the shop owner offers a discount of $46 off the final price including the sales tax, what is the percent decrease for the price of the mobile phone? A 20% B 15% C 19.17% D 16.67%

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Percent decrease in mobile = 19.17 % (Approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Retail price of mobile phone = $240

Sales tax = 15% on retail value

Total discount including sales tax = $46

Find:

Percent decrease in mobile

Computation:

Cost of mobile = $240(85/100)

Cost of mobile = $204

Percent decrease in mobile = [$46 - 15%]204

Percent decrease in mobile = 19.17 % (Approx)

Answers

Answer:

2,300,000pages  report.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a USB drive with memory of 4.6*10⁶KB, in order to know the maximum number of pages a report can have so that it can be completely stored on the drive, the conversion factor must be used.

We must first understand that 1 page of a document uses up approximately 2kB of the storage.

Since 2kB = 1page

4.6*10⁶KB = x page

Cross multiply

2kB * x = 4.6*10⁶KB * 1

2x =  4.6*10⁶

x =  4.6*10⁶/2

x =  2.3*10⁶

x = 2,300,000

Hence the maximum number of pages that the report can have so that it can be completely stored on a USB drive that holds 4.6*10⁶KB is approximately 2,300,000pages  report.

You know that the average college student eats 0.75 pounds of food at lunch. If the standard deviation is 0.2 pounds of food, then what is the total amount of food that a cafeteria should have on hand to be 90 percent confident that it will not run out of food when feeding 50 college students?

Answers

Answer: $53.95

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: [tex]\mu=0.75[/tex] pounds

[tex]\sigma= 0.2[/tex] pounds

n= 50

Two tailed critical z-value for 90% confidence level = 1.645

Let x be the total amount of food that a cafeteria should have on hand to be 90 percent confident that it will not run out of food .

z-score = [tex]\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] [tex]=\dfrac{x-0.75}{0.2}[/tex]

Then, [tex]\dfrac{x-0.75}{0.2}=1.645[/tex]

[tex]x-0.75=1.645\times0.2\\\\\Riightarrow\ x-0.75=0.329\\\\\Rightarrow\ x= 0.329+0.75\\\\\Rightarrow\ x= 1.079[/tex]

Foe 50 students, total amount of food = 1.079 x 50 = $53.95

hence, the cafeteria should have food of amount $53.95 so that it is be 90 percent confident that it will not run out of food.

Find the graph of the inequality y<-1/5X+1.

Answers

Answer:

Please refer to attached image for the graph of inequality.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the inequality:

[tex]y<-\dfrac{1}{5}x+1[/tex]

To graph this, first let us convert it to corresponding equality.

[tex]y=-\dfrac{1}{5}x+1[/tex]

As we can see that the above equation is a linear equation in two variables so it will be a straight line.

Now, let us find at least two points on the above equation so that we can plot them and then extend it to get the complete graph.

Two points that can be easily found, are:

1st put [tex]x = 0[/tex] , [tex]y=-\frac{1}{5}\times 0+1 =1[/tex]

So one point is (0, 1 )

Now, put y = 0,  

[tex]0=-\frac{1}{5}\times x+1\\\Rightarrow 1=\frac{1}{5}\times x\\\Rightarrow x = 5[/tex]

Second point is (5, 0)

Let us plot the points on the graph and extend the straight line.

Now, we know that it is an inequality, the are will be shaded.

As there is no equal to sign in the inequality, so the line will be dashed.

Let us consider one point and check whether that satisfies the inequality or not.

If the point is satisfied in the inequality, we will shade that area towards the point.

Let us consider the point (0, 0).

0 < 0 +1

Point is satisfied.

How many liters of a 35% salt solution must be mixed with 20 liters of 70% salt solution to obtain a solution that is 45% salt? What is the equation?

Answers

Answer:

.35 x + .70 (20) = .45(x+20)

50=x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = liters of 35% salt solution

We have 20 liters of 70%

We have a total of 20+x liters of 45%

.35 x + .70 (20) = .45(x+20)

Distribute

.35x + 14 = .45x +9

Subtract .35x from each side

14 = .10x +9

Subtract 9 from each side

5 = .10x

Divide each side by .1

5/.1 = x

State if the triangles are similar. If so, how do you know they are similar and complete the similarity statement. Triangle LKJ≈____

Answers

Answer: C) similar, SAS similarity, triangle LQR

==============================================

Explanation:

The vertical angles KLJ and QLR are congruent. This forms the "A" in "SAS". The angles in question are between the marked sides.

KL = 18 is twice that of QL = 9, or put another way, KL/QL = 18/9 = 2. The ratio of the sides is 2. Also, JL/RL = 16/8 = 2 is the same ratio. Because both pairs of sides have the same ratio, the sides are in proportion. This helps form the two "S" letters of "SAS".

The original triangle has LKJ mentioned at the top. Note the order as its important. We start with L and move to K, so LK is the first segment mentioned. LK = 18 pairs up with LQ = 9, meaning that LQ must be the first segment mentioned of the answer triangle. Therefore LQR is the correct letter sequence if we start with point L. Writing QLR is not correct because Q is the first letter here but Q does not pair up with L.

How many unit cubes would it take to completely fill the prism with no gaps between unit cubes?

Answers

Answer:

72 cubes

Step-by-step explanation:

Top view of the rectangular prism shows the unit cubes arranged in two rows along the length.

In each row number of unit cubes arranged = 9

Right view side of the prism shows the unit cubes arranged in two columns.

Number of unit cubes in each column = 4

Total number of cubes arranged in the prism = (Number of cubes in each row × Number of cubes arranged in two columns) × Number of columns

= (9 × 4) × 2

= 72

Therefore, number of cubes filled completely in the prism with no gaps = 72

A 3 L bottle of oil costs $36 and contains 12 cups. Dinesh puts 1 cup of oil, 10 garlic gloves and 1 cup of
lemon juice in each batch of hummus recipe that he makes. Dinesh makes 5 batches of hummus.
What is the total cost of oil that he uses in the 5 batches of his recipe?

Answers

The correct answer is $15

Explanation:

The first step is to determine the total of oil that was used for the 5 batches. To find this, you just need to multiply the amount of oil used for one batch by the total batches.

1 cup of oil per batch x 5 batches = 5 cups of oil

This means, in the 5 batches the oil Dinesh used was 5 cups of oil. Additionally, you know the total of cups in the bottle of oil is 12 cups, and these 12 cups or total costs $36. Now to find what is the cost of the 5 cups use the rule of three and cross multiplication.

12 cups of oil = $36   1. Write the values

5 cups of oil  = x      

12 x = 180           2.  Cross multiply this means 36x 5 and 12 multipy by x

x = 180 ÷ 12        3. Solve the equation

x=  15 - Cost for 5 cups used in the batches
