The Clothes Barn is having a 65% off sale on all the dresses. Jennifer paid $43.75 for a dress that was on
sale. What was the original price of the dress?

1. $125.00
2. $28.44
3. $15.31
4. $105.00

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:A

Step-by-step explanation:

I used the process of elimination. I did, 125 x .65 to get 81.25. Then, I subtracted 81.25 to 125. To get 43.75.

Answer 2

The original price of the dress was $125.00.

What is the percentage?

A percentage is a number or ratio that can be expressed as a fraction of 100 in mathematics. If we need to calculate the percentage of a number, divide it by the whole and multiply by 100. As a result, the percentage denotes a part per hundred.

How to solve this problem?

Given that the discount = 65%

Sale price = $43.75

Let the original price of the dress is $x.

Now, sale price = x - x * 65% = x - x * 65/100 = (100 - 65)x/100 = 35x/100

We can write

35x/100 = 43.75

i.e. x = (43.75 * 100)/35 = 4375/35 = 125

Therefore, the original price of the dress was $125.00. So, option 1 is correct.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]20 > c > 4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Sides =8\ and\ 12[/tex]

Required

The third side

To do this, we make use of the triangle inequality theorem which implies that:

[tex]a + b > c[/tex]

[tex]a + c > b[/tex]

[tex]b + c > a[/tex]

Where

[tex]a,b,c\to sides[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]8 + c > 12[/tex]

[tex]12 + c > 8[/tex]

Solve all inequalities

Suppose a call center receives 4000 calls on average during their Friday evening shift. Next Friday several people have put in for time off, so the center will be staffed by 178 call center employees. When working continuously, the average call center employee can handle 22 calls per evening shift (with a standard deviation of 5 calls). Assuming the center receives its expected 4000 calls next Friday, what is the probability that the center will have enough employees to handle this call volume

Answers

Answer:

The probability that the center will have enough employees to handle this call volume is 0.2764

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is defined as the ratio of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes.

Here the total mean expected number of outcomes=u = 4000

The favorable  expected outcomes are = x= 22* 178= 3916

The  standard deviation= σ= 5

The random variable X =178 has normal distribution with mean 4000/22 and standard deviation 5

So z= x-u/σ

Z= (3916-4000)/22/5

z= -0.764

From the table of areas under normal curve

P (  x= 3916)=  P( -0.764 ≤ Z≤ 0)

P (  x= 3916)=  0.2764

The probability that the center will have enough employees to handle this call volume is 0.2764

The second school had a random sample of 37 students had a sample mean 27.70 with a sample standard deviation of 2.47. What is the lower bound of the 95% confidence interval for the difference in means

Answers

Solution :

95% confidence interval for the difference between the means of ACT scores between two schools, is given by :

[tex]$[(\overline X_1 - \overline X_2)-ME, (\overline X_1 - \overline X_2)+ME]$[/tex]

[tex]$\overline X_1 = 25.90 , \ \ \ \overline X_2 = 27.70$[/tex]

[tex]$S_1=3.49, \ \ \ S_2 = 2.47$[/tex]

[tex]$n_1=39, \ \ n_2=37$[/tex]

M.E. , Margin of error,

[tex]$=t_{n_1+n_2-2,0.025} \times \left( s \sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1}+\frac{1}{n_2}}$[/tex]

[tex]$s^2 = \frac{(n_1-1)S_1^2+(n_2-1)S^2_2}{n_1+n_2-2}$[/tex]

  [tex]$=\frac{38(3.49)^2+36(2.47)^2}{39+37-2}$[/tex]

 = 9.222

s = 3.03

[tex]$t_{74,0.05} = 1.99$[/tex]

[tex]$M.E. = 1.99 \times 3.03 \times \sqrt{\frac{1}{39}+\frac{1}{37}}$[/tex]

        = 1.4

Therefore, 95% CI = [(25.90-27.70) - 1.4 , (25.90-27.70) + 1.4]

                              = [-3.2, -0.4]

Therefore, the lower bound is -3.2

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point(-1,-3) and is perpendicularly to the line x-2y=14

Answers

Answer:

the equation will be

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+y+5=0

Answer:

2x + y + 5 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of line is x-2y = 14 and we need to find the equⁿ of line which passes through (-1,-3) and is perpendicular to given line.

Find the slope of given line by converting it into slope intercept form.

=> x - 2y = 14

=> 2y = x - 14

=> y = x-14/2

=> y = x/2 - 7

Comparing to y = mx + c ,

=> Slope (m) = 1/2 .

Now the slope of line perpendicular to it , will have a slope ,

=>[tex] m_{perp}[/tex] = -1/m

=>[tex] m_{perp}[/tex] = -1/½

=> [tex] m_{perp}[/tex] = -2

Using point slope form ,

=> m = (y - y₁) / ( x - x₁)

=> -2 = { y - (-3) } / { x - (-1) }

=> -2 = y + 3/x + 1

=> -2(x + 1) = y + 3

=> -2x -2 = y + 3

=> y + 2x +3+2 = 0

=> 2x + y + 5 = 0

Hence the equation of line perpendicular to it is 2x + y + 5 = 0 .

Which expression is equivalent to 128?


Answers

Answer: 2^3 x 2^4

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of the exponential expression is A = 2³.2⁴ = 128

What are the laws of exponents?

When you raise a quotient to a power you raise both the numerator and the denominator to the power. When you raise a number to a zero power you'll always get 1. Negative exponents are the reciprocals of the positive exponents.

The different Laws of exponents are:

mᵃ×mᵇ = mᵃ⁺ᵇ

mᵃ / mᵇ = mᵃ⁻ᵇ

( mᵃ )ᵇ = mᵃᵇ

mᵃ / nᵃ = ( m / n )ᵃ

m⁰ = 1

m⁻ᵃ = ( 1 / mᵃ )

Given data ,

Let the value of the exponential equation be A

Now , the first expression is p = 2³

The value of p = 8

Now , the second expression is q = 2⁴

The value of q = 16

From the laws of exponents , we get

p.q = 2³.2⁴ = 2³⁺⁴

The value of A = 2⁷ = 128

Hence , the exponential equation is 2⁷ = 128

4. Paolo is filling a cylindrical water bottle. Unfortunately it is too big to fit in the sink he is filling up at so he has to use cone cups to fill up the bigger water bottle. The cone cups have a radius of 1 in, and a height of 3 in. how many cone cups would it take to fill the cylindrical water bottle?​

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not complete, we need to be given the dimensions of the big cylindrical water bottle. Let us assume, that the big bottles has a dimension of radius 3 in and height 5 in.

Solution:

Firstly, we need to find the volume of the big cylindrical bottle, then we find the volume of the small cone.

Volume of the cylindrical bottle = πr²h = π(3²)5 = 45π in³

Volume of the small cone = πr²h/3 = π(1²)(3/3) = π in³

Therefore the number if cups required to fill the water bottle is the ratio of the volume of the cylinder to the volume of the small cone. Hence:

number of cone cups = 45π in³ / π in³ = 45 cups

Hence 45 cups of the cone would be needed to fill the cylindrical bottle
