The price of an item has risen to $136 today. Yesterday it was $80. Find the percentage increase.

Answers

Answer 1

well, the numeric difference will be 136 - 80 = 56, now, if we take 80 (original price) to be the 100%, what is 56 (the increase) in percentage off of it?

[tex]\begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 80&100\\ 56&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{80}{56}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies \cfrac{10}{7}=\cfrac{100}{x} \\\\\\ 10x=700\implies x = \cfrac{700}{10}\implies x = \stackrel{\%}{70}[/tex]

2) how many millimeters is 6 liters​

Answers

Answer:

a)400.9 cm

b)4.009 m

c) 181.71 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

a) First know that when you move from cm to mm you multiply by 10 and when you move from mm to cm you divide by 10 because 1mm= 0.1 cm

so 4009mm/10 = 400.9cm

b) when you move from m to mm you multiply by 1000 but when you move from mm to m you divide by 1000 ,so 4009/1000 = 4.009

Solve the following system of equations:

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is option B: (-1, -1).

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to solve this system is using elimination, or by adding the two equations together. We don't have to modify the equations at all, since the x's will already cancel out as written.

Upon addition, we get:

9y = -9

If we solve the equation by dividing both sides by 9, we get:

y = -1

To find the x value, we can substitute this value back into either of our original equations.

6x + 4y = -10

6x - 4 = -10

To solve for x, we should isolate the variable, or get it alone on one side of the equation.

6x = -6

x = -1

Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is x = -1 and y = -1, or (-1, -1), which is option B.

Answer:

N - 4 = 3(M - 4). Simplified further, N - 4 = 3(M - 4)

Given,

Nina is N years old now and;

Maryna is M years old now

If four years ago, Nina was three times as old as Maryna was, then

Four years ago, Nina's age was N - 4

Four years ago, Maryna's age was M - 4

Given that Nina was three times as old as Maryna was four years ago, it means that

N - 4 = 3(M - 4)

Answers

Answer:   15x^(7/3) - 8x^(7/4) + x + 9000

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

Explanation:

If you know the cost function C(x), to find the marginal cost, we apply the derivative.

Marginal cost = derivative of cost function

Marginal cost = C ' (x)

Since we're given the marginal cost, we'll apply the antiderivative (aka integral) to figure out what C(x) is. This reverses the process described above.

[tex]\text{Cost} = \text{antiderivative of marginal cost}\\\\\displaystyle C(x) = \int \left(35x^{4/3} - 14x^{3/4} + 1\right)dx\\\\[/tex]

[tex]C(x) = \frac{1}{1+4/3}*35x^{4/3+1} - \frac{1}{1+3/4}*14x^{3/4+1} + x + D\\\\C(x) = \frac{1}{7/3}*35x^{7/3} - \frac{1}{7/4}*14x^{7/4} + x + D\\\\C(x) = \frac{3}{7}*35x^{7/3} - \frac{4}{7}*14x^{7/4} + x + D\\\\C(x) = 15x^{7/3} - 8x^{7/4} + x + D\\\\[/tex]

D represents a fixed constant. I would have used C as the constant of integration, but it's already taken by the cost function C(x).

To determine the value of D, we plug in x = 0 and C(x) = 9000. This is because we're told the fixed costs are $9000. This means that when x = 0 units are made, you still have $9000 in costs to pay. This is the initial value. You'll find that all of this leads to D = 9000 because everything else zeros out.

Therefore, we go from this

[tex]C(x) = 15x^{7/3} - 8x^{7/4} + x + D\\\\[/tex]

to this

[tex]C(x) = 15x^{7/3} - 8x^{7/4} + x + 9000\\\\[/tex]

which is the final answer.

Question
For every 3 kg of a child's weight, pediatricians prescribe 8 mg of fever reducer. If Nidhi weighs 15 kg, how many milligrams
of the fever reducer will the pediatrician prescribe?

Answers

Answer: 40 mg

Unitary method:

For 3kg --> 8mg

For 1kg --> 8/3 mg

For 15kg--> (8/3) * 15

              --> 40 mg

The number of milligrams of the fever reducer the pediatrician will prescribe is 40 mg.

Given that, for every 3 kg of a child's weight, pediatricians prescribe 8 mg of fever reducer.

The unitary method is a technique for solving a problem by first finding the value of a single unit, and then finding the necessary value by multiplying the single unit value.

Here, for 1 kg of child's weight pediatricians prescribe [tex]\frac{8}{3}[/tex] mg of fever reducer.

If Nidhi weighs 15 kg, then the fever reducer = [tex]\frac{8}{3}\times15[/tex]

[tex]=8\times5[/tex]

[tex]=40[/tex] mg

Therefore, the number of milligrams of the fever reducer the pediatrician will prescribe is 40 mg.

Answer:

f(x) = 8.917x³ + 2x² + 0.083x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)= y

Let the coefficients of x³, x², x be a, b, c and the constant be d

y= ax³ + bx² + cx + d

When y = -65, x = -2

-65= a(-2)³ + b(-2)² + c(-2) + d

-65= -8a + 4b - 2c + d ...eq. 1

When y = -14, x = -1

-14= a(-1)³ + b(-1)² + c(-1) + d

-14= -a + b - c + d ...eq. 2

When y = -7, x = 0

-7= a(0)³ + b(0)² + c(0) + d

-7 = d ...eq.3

When y = 4, x = 1

4= a(1)³ + b(1)² + c(1) + d

4= a + b + c + d ...eq. 4

when y = 78, x = 2

78 = a(2)³ + b(2)² + c(2) + d

78= 8a + 4b + 2c + d ...eq. 5

From eq. 3, d is - 7

putting d as - 7 in equations 1, 2, 4 and 5

In eq. 1,

-65= -8a + 4b - 2c - 7

-58= -8a + 4b - 2c ...eq. 6

In eq. 2

-14= -a + b - c - 7

-7= -a + b - c ...eq. 7

In eq. 4,

4= a + b + c - 7

11= a + b + c ...eq. 8

In eq. 5

78= 8a + 4b + 2c - 7

85= 8a + 4b + 2c ...eq.9

Subtracting eq. 9 from eq. 6

-143 = -16a - 4c... eq 10

subtracting eq. 8 from eq 7

-18= -2a - 2c

9= a + c

a = 9 - c ...eq 11

putting a as 9 - c in eq. 10

-143 = -16(9 - c) - 4c

-143 = -144 + 16c - 4c

1= 12c

c = 1/12 or 0.083

putting c as 1/12 in eq. 11

a = 9 - 1/12

a = 107/12 or 8.917

Putting a as 107/12 and c as 1/12 in eq. 8

11= 107/12 + b + 1/12

multiplying through by 13

132 = 107 + 12b + 1

132 - 108 = 12b

24= 12b

b = 24/12

= 2

Therefore, a= 8.917, b= 2, c= 0.083 and d = -7

f(x) = 8.917x³ + 2x² + 0.083x - 7

(I know, dividing by 3 both sides of the equations would have made the whole process way easier).

Alternatively, plug x = 0 to find the y intercept and y=0 to find the x intercept. Either way the graph will look something like the one I'm sketching on paint.

Women comprise 83.3% of all elementary school teachers. In a random sample of 300 elementary school teachers, what is the probability that fewer than 260 are women?

Answers

Using the normal approximation to the binomial, it is found that there is a 0.9319 = 93.19% probability that fewer than 260 are women.

In a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.  After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X. The binomial distribution is the probability of x successes on n trials, with p probability of a success on each trial. It can be approximated to the normal distribution with [tex]\mu = np, \sigma = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex].

In this problem:

Women comprise 83.3% of all elementary school teachers, hence [tex]p = 0.833[/tex]A sample of 300 teachers is taken, hence [tex]n = 300[/tex]

The mean and the standard deviation for the approximation are given by:

[tex]\mu = np = 300(0.833) = 249.9[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{np(1 - p)} = \sqrt{300(0.833)(0.167)} = 6.46[/tex]

Using continuity correction, as the binomial distribution is discrete and the normal distribution is continuous, the probability that fewer than 260 are women is P(X < 260 - 0.5) = P(X < 259.5), which is the p-value of Z when X = 259.5, hence:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{259.5 - 249.9}{6.46}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.49[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.49[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9319.

0.9319 = 93.19% probability that fewer than 260 are women.
