ABC Bookstore sells one customer 12 used books and 4 new books for 136. Another customer buys 14 used books for 124. How much is one used book (u), and one new book (n)?

Answers

Answer 1

An equation is formed of two equal expressions. The cost of a new book is $7.43, while the cost of an old book is $8.86.

What is an equation?

An equation is formed when two equal expressions are equated together with the help of an equal sign '='.

Given the cost of 14 used books is $124. Therefore, the cost of a single used book is,

Cost of single used book(u) = 124/14 = $8.86

Also, the cost of 12 used books and 4 new books is $136. Therefore, the equation can be written as,

12u + 4n = 136

12(8.85) + 4n = 136

106.2 + 4n = 136

n = $7.43

Hence, the cost of a new book is $7.43, while the cost of an old book is $8.86.

Answer:

the slope of parallel lines are - the same

the slope of perpendicular lines are- negative reciprocals

i.e,m1*m2= -1

where, m1 and m2 slopes of two lines

A. The slope of parallel lines are: the same/equal

B. The slope of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals.

What are the Slopes of Parallel and Perpendicular Lines?

If two lines are parallel to each other, they will have the same slope. If the slope of one is 4, the slope of the other line that is parallel to it would also be 4.

On the other hand, the slope of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocal of each other. That is, if the slope of one is, -1, the slope of the other line would be 1.

Therefore, parallel lines have the same slope, while perpendicular lines have slope values that are negative reciprocal to each other.

Convert the polar equation to rectangular coordinates. (use variables x and y as needed. )

Answers

The rectangular coordinates will be (x=7cot(θ), y=7).

What are polar coordinates?

A pair of coordinates locating the position of a point in a plane, the first being the length of the straight line ( r ) connecting the point to the origin, and the second the angle ( θ ) made by this line with a fixed line.

We have the standard conversion toolbox:

Answers

[tex]\bold{\huge{\underline{ Solution }}}[/tex]

Given :-

Meena mother is 4 times as old as Meena After 5 years, Her mother will be 3 times as old as she will be then.

To Find :-

We have to find the present ages of Meena and her mother.

Let's Begin :-

Let the present age of Meena be ' x ' years.

Now, It is given in the question that her mother is 4 times as old as Meena

That means,

Present age of her mother

[tex]\sf{ = 4x \: years }[/tex]

Now,

After 5 years

The age of the Meena will be

[tex]\sf{ = x + 5 \: years }[/tex]

Therefore,

According to given condition,

The age of her mother will be

= [tex]\sf{ = 4x + 5 \: years ...eq(1)}[/tex]

But, It is given that,

After 5 years, Her mother will be 3 times as old as Meena.

That is,

After 5 years, Her mother age will be

[tex]\sf{ = 3(x + 5) \: years ...eq(2)}[/tex]

From eq(1) and (2) :-

[tex]\sf{ 4x + 5 = 3(x + 5) }[/tex]

[tex]\sf{ 4x + 5 = 3x + 15}[/tex]

[tex]\sf{ 4x - 3x = 15 - 5 }[/tex]

[tex]\sf{ x = 10 \: years }[/tex]

Thus, The present age of the Meena will be 10 years.

Therefore,

The present age of her mother will be

[tex]\sf{ 4x = 4 × 10 }[/tex]

[tex]\sf{ = 40 \: years }[/tex]

Hence, The present of Meena and her mother is 10 years and 40 years.

It seems that every carton of eggs at the supermarket contains at
least one broken egg. If, in fact, it has been determined that
3 percent of the eggs supplied to a supermarket are cracked,
what is the probability that if you buy two dozen eggs none of
your eggs will be cracked?

Answers

The probability that if you buy two dozen eggs, none of your eggs will be cracked is 94.09% if the 3 percent of the eggs supplied to a supermarket are cracked.

What is probability?

It is defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes, in other words, the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.

We have:

3 percent of the eggs supplied to a supermarket are cracked.

The probability that no eggs are cracked = 1 - 0.03 = 0.97

The probability that if you buy two dozen eggs, none of your eggs will be cracked:

= 0.97×0.97

= 0.9409

= 94.09%

Thus, the probability that if you buy two dozen eggs, none of your eggs will be cracked is 94.09% if the 3 percent of the eggs supplied to a supermarket are cracked.

In trapezoid PQRS, if segment XY is the midsegment, which could be the lengths PQ and SR? Select all that apply.
17 cm and 31 cm
18 m and 30 m
4 cm and 8 cm
9 cm and 15 cm
12 cm and 36 cm
18 cm and 30 cm

please explain how you get the answer :)​

Answers

Answer:

17 cm and 31 cm

12 cm and 36 cm

18 cm and 30 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The midsegment of a trapezoid is equal to the average of the two bases. When taking an average of two numbers, you add them and divide by 2. So  the equation will be as follows:

[tex]\frac{PQ + SR}{2} = XY[/tex]

XY is given to be 24, so:

[tex]\frac{PQ + SR}{2} = 24[/tex]

Multiplying on both sides gets us:

[tex]PQ + SR = 48[/tex]

So any values of PQ and SR that add to 48 work. Therefore, we will sum the given options:

17 cm + 31 cm = 48 cm

18 m + 30 m = 48m (Did you mean meters?)

4 cm + 8 cm = 12cm

9 cm + 15 cm = 24cm

12 cm + 36 cm = 48cm

18 cm + 30 cm = 48 cm

Therefore, we can rewrite [tex]10^{-4}[/tex] as:

10^-4 = 0.0001

1 x 10^-4 = 10^-4

Nerys checks her tax bill from last year
the tax rates were as follows:
•No tax on the first £11,000 of earnings
•Earnings in excess of £11,000 and up to £43,000 taxed at a rate of 20%
•Earnings in excess of £43,000 and up to £ 150,000 taxed at a rate of 40%
•Earnings over £150,000 taxed at a rate of 45%
Last year Nerys earned £162,700 before tax.
how much tax did she pay in total?

Answers

Answer:

  £54,915

Step-by-step explanation:

The tax table is applied as follows:

  first 11,000 -- no tax

  11,000 to 43,000 -- tax is 0.20 × (43,000 -11,000) = 6,400

  43,000 to 150,000 -- tax is 0.40 × (150,000 -43,000) = 42,800

  150,000 to 162,700 -- tax is 0.45 × (162,700 -150,000) = 5,715

Then the total tax on earnings of £162,700 is ...

  £6,400 +42,800 +5,715 = £54,915

Nerys paid a tax of £54,915.

_____

Additional comment

The tax computation could be simplified to ...

  f(x) = max(0, 0.2x -2200, 0.4x -10800, 0.45x -18300)

In this instance, the value 0.45x -18300 is the highest, at £54,915. Not all the computations are required if you realize the lines cross at x = 11,000, 43,000, and 150,000.
