The sale price of an item is $45 after a 40% discount is applied. What is the original price of the item?

Answers

Answer 1
Diving the sales price by 60% (100-40) will obtain the original price. 
$45/60% = $75 was the original sales price. 
Answer 2

The original price of the item is $75.

Suppose the original price of the item =x

Discount =40%

What is the percentage?

The percentage is the value per hundred.

Given discounted price or sale price of the item =$45

This means [tex]x-\frac{x*40}{100} =45[/tex]

[tex]\frac{60x}{100} =45[/tex]

[tex]\frac{3x}{5} =45[/tex]

[tex]x=75[/tex]

So, the original price of the item =$75

Hence, the original price of the item is $75.

how many shelves will display 2 cars if 8 of the shelves each display 1 car

Answers

1 car needs 8 shelves. You need to know how many for 2 cars, so 8 x 2 = 16

To determine the number of shelves that will display 2 cars each when 8 shelves display 1 car each, simply divide 8 by 2. The answer is 4 shelves.

To solve this problem, we'll use basic arithmetic. If each of the 8 shelves displays 1 car, then to display 2 cars on a shelf, we would need to combine pairs of shelves. This means we would take the 8 shelves, and divide by 2 cars per shelf to find the number of shelves needed for 2 cars each. So, 8 shelves divided by 2 cars per shelf equals 4 shelves.

Therefore, the answer is that 4 shelves will display 2 cars each if there were originally 8 shelves with 1 car each.

Answers

The number of people who do not want plain hamburgers is 3+2+2 = 7, so 15-7 = 8 people want plain hamburgers. Each person wants 2 hamburgers, for a total of ...

... B: 16

plain hamburgers.

Final answer:

Jim and his dad will make 23 plain hamburgers.

Explanation:

To find the number of plain hamburgers Jim and his dad will make, we need to subtract the number of hamburgers with special toppings from the total number of hamburgers. There are 15 people in total, and each person wants 2 hamburgers, so Jim and his dad need to make 15 x 2 = 30 hamburgers in total.

Out of the 30 hamburgers, 3 people want hamburgers with cheese, 2 people want hamburgers with mustard, and 2 people want hamburgers with catsup. Therefore, the total number of hamburgers with special toppings is 3 + 2 + 2 = 7 hamburgers.

Subtracting the number of hamburgers with special toppings from the total number of hamburgers, we get 30 - 7 = 23 plain hamburgers. Therefore, Jim and his dad will make 23 plain hamburgers.

A poll conducted in 2013 found that 52% of u.s. adult twitter users get at least some news on twitter.40. the standard error for this estimate was 2.4%, and a normal distribution may be used to model the sample proportion. construct a 99% confidence interval for the fraction of u.s. adult twitter users who get some news on twitter, and interpret the confidence interval in context.

Answers

The 99% confidence interval for the population proportion is given by

[tex]sample \ proportion \pm 2.575\times standard \ error[/tex]

Given that 52% = 0.52 is the standard proportion and the standard error is 2.4% = 0.024.

Therefore, the 99% confidence interval for the fraction of u.s. adult twitter users who get some news on twitter is given by

Therefore, the 99% confidence interval for the fraction of u.s. adult twitter users who get some news on twitter is 45.82% and 58.18%.

The interpretation of the confidence interval is as follows: "We are 99% confident that the fraction of U.S. adult twiter users who get some news on twitter is between 45.82% and 58.18%.

For 99% confidence level, the interval will be (0.4582, 0.5818).

Explain how their money will grow over time. Note: You do not need to extend their entire savings for 22 years in your explanation. Focus on the earning for the first several years and explain how their money will grow.

Answers

George and Sue's money will grow due to both to their contributions and the simple interest that they accrue. Simple interest means that the interest they receive will be applied to the principle, but not the interest that has been accrued. This means that for every $10,000 they put in, they will receive $400 dollars in interest every year, and this number will not change with time.

Right now, they've deposited 10,000 every 7 years for a total of 70,000 dollars. Their annual interest therefore is 400 * 7 = 2800. With every 10,000 dollars they deposit, the yearly interest will grow by $400. This is different from compounding interest, in which annual interest will grow by more than $400 dollars every year since the rate will be applied to principle and all accrued interest.

Recall that you can use the built-in functions rem(m,n) or mod(m,n)to find the remainder of the division m/n.

Answers

the answer is B hope this helped
Final answer:

The 'rem(m, n)' and 'mod(m, n)' methods in mathematics provide the remainder of the division operation m / n. When dealing with numbers in exponential form, you divide the base numbers and subtract the exponents to simplify the terms. An understanding of these operations is essential for solving more complex equations.

Explanation:

In mathematics, there are two ways to find the remainder of a division operation: rem(m,n) or mod(m,n). These functions take two numbers m and n, and return the remainder when m is divided by n.

For example, in the case of 106 divided by 103, you would first divide the 'base' numbers (10/10) which equals 1, and then subtract the exponents (6-3) which equals 3. So, the result is 103 or 1000. Another example is 4.5 x 109 divided by 103. Here, first you divide 4.5 by 1 (since 10/10 = 1) and then subtract 9-3 equals 6. Therefore, the answer is (4.5) x 106.
