need the answer

Answers

Answer 1

The price of a used book in the bookstore after the percentage increase in its price is $7.50.

What are percentages?

Percentage can be described as the fraction out of an amount that is usually expressed as a number out of hundred. Percentages are represented with this sign - %.

What is the price of the used book?

Price = 1.50 x ( 1 + 4)

1.5 x 5 = $7.50

Quad. ABCD is a trapezoid.
XY is the median
XY = 12; AB=16
Find DC

Answers

Answer:

DC = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is half the sum of the parallel bases, that is

[tex]\frac{AB+DC}{2}[/tex] = XY , substitute values

[tex]\frac{16+DC}{2}[/tex] = 12 ( multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction )

16 + DC = 24 ( subtract 16 from both sides )

DC = 8

Answer:

DC = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The median XY of the trapezoid ABCD is half or the sum of AB and DC.

                    XY                                         = 1/2      ( AB + DC)

We need to find out DC so we can rewrite this equation isolating DC

XY = (1/2)(AB+DC), multiply both sides by 2

2XY = AB + DC, subtract from both sides AB

2XY - AB = DC, now substitute the given AB = 16 and XY = 12

2* 12 - 16 = DC , using the order of operations rules we multiply first

24 -16 = DC, subtract

8 = DC

Answer:

B) CD

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular means a line that bisects the other at 90°.

In this case, you are trying to find a perpendicular line to line BC, which can be two choices, AB & DC.

In this case, B) CD is your answer, as it is the only one that shows up (AB does not).

~

Answer:

segment CD

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular segments form a 90 degree angle (aka right angle). Segment BC appears to be perpendicular to both AB and CD. I use the phrasing "appears to be" since it's not entirely clear if they actually are perpendicular. The use of a square angle marker would indicate the segments form a 90 degree angle. Such a symbol is missing.

Find the area of the yellow region.
Round to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer:

13.7 cm square

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we see that the square has an area of 8x8= 64 centimeters square. We want to subtract the area of the white part from 64 to find the area of the yellow region. If we were to put the white parts together it would create a circle, so we need to find the area of the circle and then subtract it from 64. The circle would have a radius of one half the length of the square, which would be 4 cm. Area equals pi times radius squared so the area would be 50.27 cm square. 64-50.27= 13.7 cm square

s2 - 10s - 23 = 0

s = [?]

Answers

Answer:

s ≈ - 1.9 , s ≈ 11.9

Step-by-step explanation:

s² - 10s - 23 = 0 ( add 23 to both sides )

s² - 10s = 23

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the s- term )² to both sides

s² + 2(- 5)s + 25 = 23 + 25

(s - 5)² = 48 ( take square root of both sides )

s - 5 = ± [tex]\sqrt{48}[/tex] ( add 5 to both sides )

s = 5 ± [tex]\sqrt{48}[/tex]

Then

s = 5 - [tex]\sqrt{48}[/tex] ≈ - 1.9 ( to the nearest tenth ) ← smaller solution

s = 5 + [tex]\sqrt{48}[/tex] ≈ 11.9 ( to the nearest tenth ) ← larger solution

Peggy sue decided to enter her famous “Five- Alarm chili” at her local chili cooking contest. Normally, she needs 5 tomatoes to make enough chili for her family of 7

A. How many tomatoes should she expect to use to make her famous recipe for 100 people?

b. When she gets to the contest, she realizes that she only packed 58 tomatoes. How many people can she expect to feed?

Answers

A. If she needs 5 tomatoes for a family of seven, then we need to find how many tomatoes it takes to feed only one person and then multiply that by 100z

5/7 = 0.714… tomatoes per person

Multiply this by one hundred

0.714 * 100 = 71.43 tomatoes.

Check:

5/7 = ?/100

Solve for ?

? = 71.43 tomatoes, but you technically can’t bring 0.43 tomatoes, so round that to 72 tomatoes

B. We would need to solve for

5/7 = 58/?

? = 81.2 people, but you should round down here because there isn’t enough chili for that 82 person, and there are not 20% of a person walking around looking for some chili.


What are the coordinates of the vertex for the function shown below ?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We can answer this in two ways:  Differentiation and Graphing.

Differentitate:

The first derivative of a function yields a function that provides the slope for any point on the line of the original function.  The slope of a vertex is zero, so we can set the first derivative to 0 and solve for x.

f(x) = 3(x-1)^2 + 4

f(x) = 3(x-1)(x-1) + 4

f(x) = 3(x^2 - 2x + 1) + 4

f(x) = 3x^2 - 6x + 7

f'(x) = 6x -6

Set this = 0 and find x:

0 = 6x -6

x = 1

The value of y when x=1 in the original equation is:

f(1) = 3(1-1)^2 + 4

y = 4

The vertex is (1,4)

Graph:

You can use DESMOS to plot the function.  The result is attached.  Look for the vertex and read the coordinates.  (1,4) seems to work.

The x intercept of the inequality y > 12 - 3x is (a, 0) What is the value of a? (100 points)

Answers

Answer:

a > 4

Step-by-step explanation:

y > 12 - 3x, given the points(a, 0)

We just have to substitute the point of x and y

=> 0 > 12 - 3a

=> - 12 > - 3a,

divide both sides by the coefficient of a

=> - 12/-3 < a

Therefore a > 4

Step-by-step explanation:

angle EAB = 2x too, due to the laws of the same and mirrored angles when a line crosses 2 parallel lines.

the angle ABE is 180 - 6x, due to the fact that all angles around a single point on one side of a line ad up to 180 degrees.

similarly, the angle AEB is 180 - 4x.

and then we know the sum of all angles in a triangle is airways 180 degrees.

so,

180 = 2x + 180 - 4x + 180 - 6x

0 = 180 - 8x

8x = 180

x = 22.5
