Answer:
216$
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
41.2%
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]Percentage\ change = (\frac{Final\ Price\ - Initial\ Price}{Final\ Price})100\\\\Percentage\ change=(\frac{238-140}{238})100\\\\Percentage\ change=(\frac{98}{238})100\\\\Percentage\ change=(0.412)100\\Percentage\ change=41.2\\[/tex]
So the percentage increase was 41.2%

What is the value of x?
(5y + 10)
(3x + 7)º
Answer:
x = 21
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex](5 y + 10) \degree = y \degree + 90 \degree \\ (vertical \: \angle s) \\ \\ (5 y + 10 - y) \degree = 90 \degree \\ \\ (4 y + 10 ) \degree = 90 \degree \\ \\ 4y + 10 = 90 \\ \\ 4y = 90 - 10 \\ \\ 4y = 80 \\ \\ y = \frac{80}{4} \\ \\ y = 20 \\ \\ (5 y + 10) \degree = (5 \times 20 + 10) \degree = 110 \degree \\ \\ (5 y + 10) \degree + (3x + 7) \degree = 180 \degree \\ (linear \: pair \: \angle s) \\ \\ 110 \degree + (3x + 7) \degree = 180 \degree \\ \\ (3x + 7) \degree = 180 \degree - 110 \degree\\ \\ (3x + 7) \degree = 70 \degree \\ \\ 3x + 7 = 70 \\ \\ 3x = 70 - 7 \\ \\ 3x = 63 \\ \\ x = \frac{63}{3} \\ \\ x = 21[/tex]
The value of x and y are 21 and 20 degrees respectively.
What is linear pair?
Linear pairs of angles are produced when two lines intersect each other at a point. The sum of angles of the linear pair is always 180 degrees.
WE are given two adjacent angle (5y + 10) and (3x + 7)º
These angles make a linear pair so,
(5y + 10) + (3x + 7)º = 180
Also, we can see that angle Y and (3x + 7)º lies on a straight line then;
y + (3x + 7)º + 90 = 180
(3x + 7)º = 180 - 90 - y
(3x + 7)º = 90 -y
Now replace (3x + 7)º by 90 - y in the first equation.
(5y + 10) + (3x + 7)º = 180
(5y + 10) + (90 - y )º = 180
Finally, simplify;
4y + 100 = 180
4y = 80
y = 20
Now, (3x + 7)º = 90 -y =90 - 20
(3x + 7)º = 70
3x = 70 - 7
3x = 63
x = 21
Hence, the value of x and y are 21 and 20 degrees respectively.

The mean mass of 5 boys is 62 kg. When the mass of a boy is excluded, the mean mass of the remaining 4 boys becomes 64 kg. Find the mass of the boy that has been excluded
Answer:
54 kg
Step-by-step explanation:
x - regular boy
y - special boy who's weight we're counting
The mean mass of 5 boys:
(4x+y)÷5=62
The mean mass of 4 boys:
4x÷4=64
x=64kg
the mass of y boy:
(4×64+y)÷5=62
(256+y)÷5=62 |×5
256+y=310
y=310-256
y=54

Ben ,Cam and Justin are lumberjacks. The number of trees they chop down is given by b+2c+3j where b is the number of hours Ben some spendsI chopping, c is the number of hours Cam spends chopping and j is the number of hours Justin spends chopping.
Answer:
26 trees
Step-by-step explanation:
Ben, Cam, and Justin are lumberjacks. The number of trees they chop down is given by b+2c+3j where b is the number of hours Ben spends chopping, c is the number of hours Cam spends chopping, and j is the number of hours Justin spends chopping. How many trees do they chop down after Ben spends 8 hours chopping, Cam spends 3 hours chopping, and Justin spends 4 hours chopping?
Given:
b + 2c + 3j
Where,
b = number of hours Ben spends chopping
c = number of hours Cam spends chopping
j = number of hours Justin spends chopping
Substitute the below into the given expression
b = 8 hours
c = 3 hours
j = 4 hours
b + 2c + 3j
= 8 + 2(3) + 3(4)
= 8 + 6 + 12
= 26 trees
They chopped down 26 trees altogether

Sam can clean the pool in 5 hours; his coworker Glenn can clean the same pool in 7 hours. One day Sam
started to clean the pool by himself and worked for an hour. Then Glenn joined him, and the finished
cleaning the pool. How long did it take them to finish cleaning the pool?
Answer:
23/12 hours or 1.9167 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that Sam can clean the pool in 5 hours. This implies 1:5
Also, his coworker Glenn can clean the same pool in 7 hours. This implies 1:7
Since it's the same pool, let's generate a workrate formula.
Thus;
(1/5)x + (1/7)x = 1
Where x is the amount of time used by both of them to clean 1 pool
Simplifying it, we multiply each term by 35 to get;
7x + 5x = 35
12x = 35
x = 35/12
We are now told that One day Sam
started to clean the pool by himself and worked for an hour.
Thus, remaining time after Sam worked 1 hour is; (35/12) - 1 = 23/12 hours
Thus, time they both used to finish cleaning the pool is 23/12 hours

An ordinary coin is thrown 50 times.
Barry says "I am going to get heads 25 times and tails 25 times."
Explain why he could be wrong.
He could get 25 heads out of the 50 times but the percentage of happening that is very narrow.
What is probability?Probability is a number that expresses the likelihood or chance that a specific event will take place. Both proportions ranging from 0 to 1 and percentages ranging from 0% to 100% can be used to describe probabilities.
given, An ordinary coin is thrown 50 times. Barry says "I am going to get heads 25 times and tails 25 times."
To better understand Why he could be wrong we need to Understand the difference between Theoretical probability and Actual probability:
The theoretical probability of an occurrence indicates its propensity to occur. The theoretical probability of receiving heads is 1/2 since we know that flipping a coin has an equal chance of landing heads or tails. The frequency of an event actually occurring in an experiment is referred to as its experimental probability.
Because theoretical probability is based on models rather than reality, it isn't very helpful for determining probability in the actual world. Subjective probability is dependent on an individual's own assumptions and biases. It's the likelihood that an individual will encounter the result they are anticipating based on their prior experiences.

Question 8
Calculate the difference (4x2 + x - 5) – (5x2 - 1).
Answer:
x - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
(4x2 + x - 5) - (5x2 - 1)
According to the order of operations, parenthesis come first so we will solve what is in the parenthesis first.
Then we do the multiplication because it comes before addition and subtraction.
4x2 = 8
Now we have 8 + x - 5
Combine like terms and 8-5=3 so we have 3 + x
Now for the second one.
5x2=10
10-1=9
Subtracting this from the first expression we have:
3+x-9 =
x - 6
Consider the following system of equations
-2x+5y=19
Y=-5/6x-1/6
Use this graph of the system to approximate its solution
A. (13/4,-5/2)
B. (-5/2,13/4)
C. (-13/4,5/2)
D.) (5/2,-13/4)
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the system of equations:
[tex]\displaystyle -2x+5y=19 \\\\ y=-\frac{5}{6}x-\frac{1}{6}[/tex]
And we want to use the graph to approximate the solution to the system.
Remember that, graphically, the solution to a system of equations is where the two graphs intersect.
We can see that the point at which the two lines intersect is in QII.
Hence, x is negative and y is positive.
The only choices that satisfies these conditions are B or C.
However, for B, -5/2 is -2.5. As we can see from the graph, the x-coordinate of the point of intersection is less than -3.
Hence, the only choice left is C. -13/4 also is -3.25, fulfilling our condition.
So, our final answer is C.
Last year's cost, c, of a water park season pass increased 35%. The expression C+0.35c can be used to represent the increased price of a season pass. What is another expression that can be used to find the the new cost of a season pass?
==========================================
Work Shown:
c+0.35c = 1c+0.35c = (1+0.35)c = 1.35c
We can think of the increase of 35% as equivalent to 135%, since 100% + 35% = 135%, then we can convert 135% to its decimal form getting 1.35
In other words, if you increase the price by 35%, then the new price is 135% of its old one
new price = 135% of old price
new price = 1.35*(old price)

Given:
Jeffery babysits for 4 dollars per hour and works as a math tutor for 7 dollars per hour.
He is only allowed to work 13 hours total per week.
He wants to make at least 65 dollars.
To find:
The system of inequalities to represent this situation.
Solution:
Let x be the number of hours he babysits per week and y be the number of hours h works as a math tutor.
He is only allowed to work 13 hours total per week. It means sum of x and y must be less than or equal to 13.
[tex]x+y\leq 13[/tex]
He wants to make at least 65 dollars. It means total earnings must be greater than or equal to 65.
[tex]4x+7y\geq 65[/tex]
Number of hours can not be negative.
[tex]x\geq 0, y\geq 0[/tex].
Therefore, the required system of inequalities contains some equations, [tex]x+y\leq 13,4x+7y\geq 65[/tex] and [tex]x, y\geq 0[/tex].
