The orange-and-purple-striped sweaters at a store were not selling, so the store put them on sale for half of the original price. The sweaters still did not sell, so the store reduced the price by an additional $10. The sweaters are now priced at $7.50. Write and solve an equation to find the original price of the sweaters. Explain each step of your solution.

The gasoline prices in seven states are $1.96, $2.09, $1.79, $1.61, $1.75, 2.11, and $1.84 what is the median gas price and the difference of the first and third quartiles

Answers

first we must put them in order

1.61, [1.75], 1.79, (1.84), 1.96, [2.09], 2.11

the median (the middle number) = 1.84 <=

the difference of the first and 3rd quartiles (the IQR) = 
2.09 - 1.75 = 0.34 <=

Answer:

Median = $1.84

The difference of the first and third quartiles = $0.34

Step-by-step explanation:

Median

How to calculate the median of a small data or ungrouped data;

1. Arrange the data in ascending or descending order.

2. Choose the middle value. The middle value can be a single value or two value. If the middle value is a single value, then, that value is the median but if the middle values are two, the mean of the two middle values is evaluated to get the median.

Arranging the gasoline prices given in ascending order;

$1.61,  $1.75, $1.79,  $1.84,  $1.96, $2.09, $2.11

The middle value is a single number $1.84 in bold. Therefore, the median is $1.84.  

                         Median = $1.84

First (Lower) Quartile

To calculate for the First (Lower) quartile,

1. Arrange the data give in ascending order.

2. The First (Lower) quartile, Q1 is then calculated using;  

                 [tex]Q1 =\frac{1}{4} (n + 1)^{th}[/tex] term

where n is the total number of terms of the data. In the given question, the total number of terms, n = 7

                 [tex]Q1 =\frac{1}{4} (7 + 1)^{th}[/tex] term

                 [tex]Q1 =\frac{8}{4}^{th}[/tex] term

                 Q1 = 2nd term

3. Select the 2nd term of the given data already arranged in ascending order.

                 $1.61,  $1.75, $1.79,  $1.84,  $1.96, $2.09, $2.11

                 The First Quartile, Q1 = $1.75

Third (Upper) Quartile

To calculate for the third (upper) quartile,

1. Arrange the data give in ascending order.

2. The third (upper) quartile (Q3) is then calculated using;  

                 [tex]Q3 =\frac{3}{4} (n + 1)^{th}[/tex] term

where n is the total number of terms. In the given question, the total number of terms, n = 7

                 [tex]Q3 =\frac{3}{4} (7 + 1)^{th}[/tex] term

                 [tex]Q3 =\frac{24}{4}^{th}[/tex] term

                 [tex]Q3 = 6^{th} term[/tex]

3. Select the [tex]6^{th} term[/tex] of the given data already arranged in ascending order.

                 $1.61,  $1.75, $1.79,  $1.84,  $1.96, $2.09, $2.11

The third (upper) quartile Q3 = $2.09

The difference between the first and third quartiles is called interquartile range.

Now, calculating the difference of the first and third quartiles

                  Interquartile Range = Q3 - Q1

                              $2.09 - $1.75 = $0.34

The difference of the first and third quartiles, Interquartile Range = $0.34

Answer:

y ≥ 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The real absolute value function is defined on the set of all real numbers, assigning each real number its respective absolute value. Formally, the absolute value of any real number x, is defined by:

[tex]|x|=x,\hspace{3}if\hspace{3}x\geq0\\|x|=-x,\hspace{3}if\hspace{3}x<0[/tex]

Cameron bought four begonias in 6-in pots and a $19 fern at a fundraiser. he spent a total of $63. how much is each begonia?

Answers

Each of the begonias are $11

The cost of each begonia is $11 at a fundraiser.

What is the equation?

The equation is defined as mathematical statements that have a minimum of two terms containing variables or numbers that are equal.

Let's assume the cost of each begonia x.

Since Cameron bought four begonias, the total cost of the begonias was 4x.

The total cost of the plants was the cost of the begonias plus the cost of the fern, or 4x + 19.

As per the question, the total cost was $63, so we can set up the equation:

4x + 19 = 63

To solve for x, we need to get x by itself on one side of the equation. We can do this by subtracting 19 from both sides:

4x + 19 - 19 = 63 - 19

This simplifies to:

4x = 44

To solve for x, we need to divide both sides by 4:

4x / 4 = 44 / 4

This simplifies to:

x = 11

Therefore, each begonia cost $11.

[tex] \frac{5}{12} = \frac{x}{48} Now, we do something called cross-multiply 12*x = 48 * 5 12x = 240 x = 240/12 x= 20 [/tex]

The missing number is 20
----------------------

We can check if we got the answer right. Replace the hole by 20
so it will be
5/12 = 20/48

when divided 5 by 12, it equals to 0.41
when we divided 20 by 48, it equals 0.41

So yes, 20 is the missing number.

Use lagrange multiplier techniques to find the local extreme values of f(x, y) = x2 − y2 − 2 subject to the constraint x2 + y2 = 16

Answers

The local extreme values of [tex]\( f(x, y) = x^2 - y^2 - 2 \)[/tex] subject to the constraint [tex]\( x^2 + y^2 = 16 \)[/tex] are -18  at points (0, 4) and (0, -4).

To find the local extreme values of [tex]\( f(x, y) = x^2 - y^2 - 2 \)[/tex] subject to the constraint [tex]\( x^2 + y^2 = 16 \)[/tex] using Lagrange multiplier techniques, we need to set up the Lagrangian function:

[tex]\[ L(x, y, \lambda) = f(x, y) - \lambda(g(x, y) - c) \][/tex]

where [tex]\( g(x, y) \)[/tex] is the constraint, c is a constant, and [tex]\( \lambda \)[/tex] is the Lagrange multiplier.

In this case, [tex]\( g(x, y) = x^2 + y^2 \)[/tex] is the constraint, and c = 16 .

So, the Lagrangian function is:

[tex]\[ L(x, y, \lambda) = x^2 - y^2 - 2 - \lambda(x^2 + y^2 - 16) \][/tex]

Now, find the partial derivatives of L with respect to ( x, y, ) and[tex]\( \lambda \)[/tex] and set them equal to zero to find critical points:

[tex]\[ \frac{\partial L}{\partial x} = 2x - 2\lambda x = 0 \]\[ \frac{\partial L}{\partial y} = -2y - 2\lambda y = 0 \]\[ \frac{\partial L}{\partial \lambda} = x^2 + y^2 - 16 = 0 \][/tex]

Solving the system of equations, we get two critical points:

1. When [tex]\( x = 0, y = 4, \lambda = -\frac{1}{4} \)[/tex]

2. When [tex]\( x = 0, y = -4, \lambda = -\frac{1}{4} \)[/tex]

Now, evaluate f(x, y) at these critical points:

1. f(0, 4) = 0 - 16 - 2 = -18

2. f(0, -4) = 0 - 16 - 2 = -18

Therefore, the local extreme values of [tex]\( f(x, y) = x^2 - y^2 - 2 \)[/tex] subject to the constraint [tex]\( x^2 + y^2 = 16 \)[/tex] are -18  at points (0, 4) and (0, -4).

to find inverse, switch x and f(x) and solve for the new f(x), the new f(x) is the inverse. 
original function: f(x)=(1/2)x+4
switch: x=(1/2)f(x)+4
f(x)=2x-8, this is the answer for question 1

question 3
From the given graph, we know the slope is 2/5, the y intercept is -2, so the original function is f(x)=(2/5)x-2
switch x and f(x): x=(2/5)f(x)-2
solve for f(x): (2/5)f(x)=x+2
multiply both side by 5/2: f(x)=(5/2)x+5,
so the second choice is the correct answer.

A student has some 1 bills and $5 bills in his wallet. he has a total of 15 bills that are worth $47. how many of each type of bill does he have?

Answers

*Given
Total number of bills    - 15
Total value of the bills - $47
Bills                             - $1 and $5

*Solution
Let:
  x - number of $1 bills
  y - number of $5 bills

1. The total number of bills comprising of $1 and $5 bills is 15. Thus, 

                         x + y = 15                                      (EQUATION 1)

2. The total value of the bills is $47. Thus, 
 
                   $1 (x) + $5 (y) = $47                           (EQUATION 2)

3. There are 2 ways to solve this (system of linear equations) mathematically. You can use the elimination method or the substitution method. Using the elimination method to eliminate the variable x... (subtract Equation 1 from Equation 2)

                    1x      +   5y      = 47
                 _
                     x       +     y      = 15
                     0       +   4y      = 32

4. Thus, the value of y, which is the number of $5 bills is, 

                     4y       =   32 
                      4              4

                      y       =    8

5. The number of $1 bills (x) can then be solved using either Equations 1 or         2. Using Equation 1 to determine x, 
 
                         x + y = 15    
                               x = 15 - y
                               x = 15 - 8
                               x = 7

From the solution, we have determined that there are 8 pieces of $5 bills and 7 pieces of $1 bills. 

Answer:

B. seven $1 bills and eight $5 bills.

Step-by-step explanation:

n = number of $1 bills

m = number of $5 bills

 

Given:

 

n + m = 15

n($1) + m($5) = $47

 

Just solve 2 equations in 2 unknowns n and m:

 

(i)  n + m = 15

(ii) n + 5m = 47

 

Subtract (i) from (ii) and get

 

4m = 32

m = 32/4 = 8

 

Then from (i) get

 

n = 15 - m = 15 - 8 = 7

 

There are 7 $1 bills and 8 $5 bills.

Answers

the answer would be D

Answer:

Therefore, The correct option is D. 0.069

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of the money paid in the state property taxes every year = $2849.84

The property owned has an assessed value.

Now, the assessed value of the property is $41302

We need to find the state's property tax rate.

[tex]\text{So, State's property tax rate = }\frac{\text{state's property tax}}{\text{assessed value}}\\\\\text{State's property tax rate = }\frac{2849.84}{41302}\approx 0.069[/tex]

Which description matches the algebraic expression 45n

A.the sum of a number and 45
B. the quotient of a number and 45
C. the product of a number and 45
D. the difference of a number and 45

Answers

C is the correct answer

Answer:  The correct description is (C). the product of a number and 45.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to select the correct description that matches the algebraic expression 45n.

Let, 'n' be a number.

Then, the sum of 'n' and 45 is written as (45 + n).

So, option (A) is incorrect.

The quotient of 'n' and 45 is given by [tex]\dfrac{n}{45}~\textup{or}~\dfrac{45}{n}.[/tex]

So, option (B) is incorrect.

The product of 'n' and 45 is

45 × n = 45n, which means 45 times of a number 'n' or n times of 45.

So, option (C) is correct.

The difference of 'n' and 45 is (n - 45) or (45 - n), according as 'n' is greater or 45 is greater.

So, option (D) is incorrect.

Thus, the correct option is (C).
