Due to a sale at Macy's you only have to pay 2/3 of the original price of a blouse. your price AFTER the discount $120. What was the original price? Explain how you arrived at this answer.

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  $180

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between the prices is said to be ...

  (amount you pay) = 2/3 × (original price)

To find the original price, multiply the equation by the reciprocal of the coefficient of the (original price).

  (3/2)×(amount you pay) = (3/2)(2/3)(original price) = (original price)

  (3/2)×$120 = original price = $180

(2cosA+1) (2cosA-1)=2cos2A+1 prove that

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

To prove that: (2cosA+1) (2cosA-1) = 2cos2A+1

We try to solve one side of the equation to get the other side of the equation.

In this case, we'll solve the right hand side (2cos2A + 1) of the equation with the aim of getting the left hand side of the equation  (2cosA + 1)(2cosA - 1)

Solving the right hand side: 2cos2A + 1

i. We know that cos2A = cos(A+A) = cosAcosA - sinAsinA

Therefore;

cos2A = cos²A - sin²A

ii. We also know that: cos²A + sin²A = 1

Therefore;

sin²A = 1 - cos²A

iii. Now re-write the right hand side by substituting the value of cos2A as follows;

2cos2A + 1 = 2(cos²A - sin²A) + 1

iv. Expand the result in (iii)

2cos2A + 1 = 2cos²A - 2sin²A + 1

v. Now substitute the value of sin²A in (ii) into the result in (iv)

2cos2A + 1 = 2cos²A - 2(1 - cos²A) + 1

vi. Solve the result in (v)

2cos2A + 1 = 2cos²A - 2 + 2cos²A + 1

2cos2A + 1 = 4cos²A - 2 + 1

2cos2A + 1 = 4cos²A - 1

2cos2A + 1 = (2cosA)² - 1²

vii. Remember that the difference of the square of two numbers is the product of the sum and difference of the two numbers. i.e

a² - b² = (a+b)(a-b)

This means that if we put a = 2cosA and b = 1, the result from (vi) can be re-written as;

2cos2A + 1 = (2cosA)² - 1²

2cos2A + 1 = (2cosA + 1)(2cosA - 1)

Since, we have been able to arrive at the left hand side of the given equation, then we can conclude that;

(2cosA + 1)(2cosA - 1) = 2cos2A + 1

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\sf LHS = RHS }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to prove that ,

[tex]\sf\implies (2 cosA +1)(2cosA-1) = 2cos2A+1[/tex]

We can start by taking RHS and will try to obtain the LHS . The RHS is ,

[tex]\sf\implies RHS= 2cos2A + 1 [/tex]

We know that , cos2A = 2cos²A - 1 ,

[tex]\sf\implies RHS= 2(2cos^2-1)-1 [/tex]

Simplify the bracket ,

[tex]\sf\implies RHS= 4cos^2A - 2 +1 [/tex]

Add the constants ,

[tex]\sf\implies RHS= 4cos^2-1 [/tex]

Write each term in form of square of a number ,

[tex]\sf\implies RHS= (2cos^2A)^2-1^2 [/tex]

Using (a+b)(a-b) = a² - b² , we have ,

[tex]\sf\implies RHS= (2cosA+1)(2cosA-1) [/tex]

This equals to LHS , therefore ,

[tex]\sf\implies \boxed{\pink{\textsf{\textbf{ RHS= LHS }}}} [/tex]

Hence Proved !

Many people consider their smart phone to be essential! Communication, news, Internet, entertainment, photos, and just keeping current are all conveniently possible with a smart phone. However, the battery better be charged or the phone is useless. Battery life of course depends on the frequency, duration, and type of use. One study involving heavy use of the phones showed the mean of the battery life to be 15.25 hours with a standard deviation of 2.2 hours. Then the battery needs to be recharged. Assume the battery life between charges is normally distributed.

Required:
a. Find the probability that with heavy use, the battery life exceeds 11 hours.
b. You are planning your recharging schedule so that the probability your phone will die is no more than 5%. After how many hours should you plan to recharge your phone?

Answers

Answer:

a) The probability that with heavy use, the battery life exceeds 11 hours is 0.4602.

b) Using the standard normal table, After 6.8 hours should you plan to recharge your phone.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The probability that with heavy use, the battery life exceeds 11 hours:-

P(x > 11) = 1 - p( x< 11)  

[tex]=1- p P[(x - \mu) / \sigma < (11 - 10.75) / 2.4]\\\\=1- P(z < 0.10)[/tex]  

Using z table distribution,    

= 1 - 0.5398  

= 0.4602  

b) Using the standard normal table,  

[tex]P(Z < z) = 5%\\\\\\\\= P(Z < -1.645 ) = 0.05 \\z = -1.645[/tex]

Using the z-score formula,  

[tex]x = z \times \sigma + \mu\\x = -1.645 * 2.4 + 10.75\\x = 6.8 hours.[/tex]

Given points A(-1, -2) and B(2, 4) where AP: BP=1:2, find the locus of point P.​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x^2 + 4x + y^2 +8y = 0[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]A = (-1,-2)[/tex]

[tex]B = (2,4)[/tex]

[tex]AP:BP = 1 : 2[/tex]

Required

The locus of P

[tex]AP:BP = 1 : 2[/tex]

Express as fraction

[tex]\frac{AP}{BP} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex]2AP = BP[/tex]

Calculate AP and BP using the following distance formula:

[tex]d = \sqrt{(x - x_1)^2 + (y - y_1)^2}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]2 * \sqrt{(x - -1)^2 + (y - -2)^2} = \sqrt{(x - 2)^2 + (y - 4)^2}[/tex]

[tex]2 * \sqrt{(x +1)^2 + (y +2)^2} = \sqrt{(x - 2)^2 + (y - 4)^2}[/tex]

Take square of both sides

[tex]4 * [(x +1)^2 + (y +2)^2] = (x - 2)^2 + (y - 4)^2[/tex]

Evaluate all squares

[tex]4 * [x^2 + 2x + 1 + y^2 +4y + 4] = x^2 - 4x + 4 + y^2 - 8y + 16[/tex]

Collect and evaluate like terms

[tex]4 * [x^2 + 2x + y^2 +4y + 5] = x^2 - 4x + y^2 - 8y + 20[/tex]

Open brackets

[tex]4x^2 + 8x + 4y^2 +16y + 20 = x^2 - 4x + y^2 - 8y + 20[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]4x^2 - x^2 + 8x + 4x + 4y^2 -y^2 +16y + 8y + 20 - 20 = 0[/tex]

[tex]3x^2 + 12x + 3y^2 +24y = 0[/tex]

Divide through by 3

[tex]x^2 + 4x + y^2 +8y = 0[/tex]

find the length of a rhombus if the lengths of its diagonals are: 5 cm and 12 cm

Answers

Answer:

  6.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the rhombus is the length of the long diagonal: 12 cm.

Perhaps you want the length of one side. We recognize the given lengths as the legs of a 5-12-13 right triangle. Since each side is the hypotenuse of a right triangle whose legs are half the diagonals, the side length of the rhombus will be half of 13 cm.

The side lengths of the rhombus are 6.5 cm.

Consider a parallelogram in which one side is 3 inches long, another side measures 4 inches, and the measurement of one angle is 45°. How many parallelograms can you construct given these conditions? What are the lengths of the sides and the measurements of the angles for the parallelogram(s)? Using the given information, can you determine the lengths of all the sides of the parallelogram? If so, what are the side lengths?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (a) one parallelogram

  (b) opposite sides are 3 inches and 4 inches. Opposite angles are 45° and 135°

  (c) yes, all side lengths can be determined, see (b)

Step-by-step explanation:

Opposite sides of a parallelogram are the same length, so if one side is 3 inches, so is the opposite side. Similarly, if one side is 4 inches, so is the opposite side. If sides have different lengths, they must be adjacent sides. The given numbers tell us the lengths of all of the sides.

The 4 inch sides are adjacent to the 3 inch sides. Thus the angle between a 4 inch side and a 3 inch side must be 45°. Opposite angles are congruent, and adjacent angles are supplementary, so specifying one angle specifies them all.

Only one parallelogram can be formed with these sides and angles. (The acute angle can be at the left end or the right end of the long side. This gives rise to two possible congruent orientations of the parallelogram. Because these are congruent, we claim only one parallelogram is possible. Each is a reflection of the other.)

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Your question isn't complete and well written but I'll give examples on the calculation of the area of a circle.

1. Let's assume that a circle has a radius of 14cm and we want to know the area.

Area of a circle = πr²

where π = 3.142

r = radius = 14cm

Area = πr² = 3.142 × 14²

= 3.142 × 196

= 615.382cm²

2. Let's assume that we are given a diameter of 10cm and told to calculate the area of the circle.

Note that Diameter is twice the radius.

Area of a circle = πr²

where π = 3.142

r = radius = Diameter/2 = 10cm/2 = 5cm

Area = πr² = 3.142 × 5²

= 3.142 × 25

= 78.55cm²

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x = -1, 1, 9

Step-by-step explanation:

You want x such that f(x) = g(x). Subtracting g(x) from both sides of this equation lets us rewrite it as ...

  f(x) -g(x) = 0

  x³ -9x² -(x -9) = 0

  x²(x -9) -1(x -9) = 0 . . . factor the first pair of terms

  (x² -1)(x -9) = 0 . . . . . . use the distributive property

  (x -1)(x +1)(x -9) = 0 . . . . factor the difference of squares

Values of x that make these factors zero will make f(x) = g(x):

  x = -1, 1, 9 for f(x) = g(x)

Laura lives 15 miles east of Kevin’s place. Kevin lives 8 miles south of Michelle’s place. How far does Michelle live from Laura’s place?
17 miles
24 miles
32 miles
36 miles

Answers

Answer:

17 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define:

North as the positive y-axis

East as the positive x-axis.

We know that Laura lives 15 miles east of Kevin's place.

Kevin lives 8 miles south of Michelle's place.

So, if we define the origin, (0, 0) as Laura's place.

From:

"that Laura lives 15 miles east of Kevin's place."

We have that the location of Kevin's house is 15 miles west from Laura's place, then Kevin's house is at:

(0, 0) + (-15mi, 0) = (-15mi, 0)

From Kevin lives 8 miles south of Michelle's place, we know that Michelle's live 8 miles north of Kevin's place.

Then the location of Michele's house is the location of Kevin's plus (0, 8mi).

Michelle's house is located at:

(-15mi, 0) + (0, 8mi)  =(-15mi, 8mi)

Now we want to find the distance between Michelle's house and Laura's house.

Michelle's house is at (-15mi, 8mi)

Laura's house is at (0mi, 0mi)

Remember that the distance between two points (a, b) and (c, d) is given by:

[tex]D = \sqrt{(a - c)^2 + (b - d)^2}[/tex]

Then the distance between  (-15mi, 8mi) and (0mi, 0mi) is:

[tex]D = \sqrt{(-15mi - 0mi)^2 + (8mi - 0mi)^2} = 17mi[/tex]

The correct option is the first one, 17 miles.
