josue bought 7 pounds of pretzels at a local wholesaler for $16.80. his friend ricardo bought 5 pounds of pretzels at the supermarket for $12.75. Ricardo thinks he got the better deal because $12.75 is less than $16.80. Is Ricardo's reasoning correct? Explain why or why not.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Ricardo's reasoning is not correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Find who got the better deal by dividing the price by the number of pounds of pretzels:

16.80/7 = $2.40 a pound

12.75/5 = $2.55 a pound

So, Josue got the better deal because he only spent $2.40 a pound on the pretzels, while Ricardo spent $2.55 a pound.

Ricardo did not get the better deal, because he spent more per pound on the pretzels.

Ricardo's reasoning is not correct.

find the value of z, secant and tangent angles

Answers

Answer:

z = 110

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of an angle created by the intersection of two secants outside a circle is half the difference of the angles it intercepts. In this it would be:

2x + 15 = 1/2 * (10x + 20 - 80)

We can now solve:

4x + 30 = 10x - 60

30 = 6x - 60

6x = 90

x = 15

This means the values of 10x + 20 is 10(15) + 20, which is 170.

Now, we can add up all the arcs in a circle, which sum to 360 degrees:

360 = z + 170 + 80

360 = z + 250

z = 110

Answer:

[tex]A)\ \ z = 110[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

One is given a circle with two secants. Please note that a secant is a line that intersects a circle in two places. The secant exterior angle theorem states that when two secants intersect each other outside of a circle, the measure of the angle formed is half the of the positive difference of the intersecting arcs. One can apply this theorem here by stating the following:

[tex]2x+15=\frac{(10x+20)-(80)}{2}[/tex]

Simplify,

[tex]2x+15=\frac{(10x+20)-(80)}{2}[/tex]

[tex]2x+15=\frac{10x-60}{2}[/tex]

[tex]2x+15=5x-30[/tex]

Inverse operations,

[tex]2x+15=5x-30[/tex]

[tex]15=3x-30[/tex]

[tex]45=3x[/tex]

[tex]15=x[/tex]

Substitute this value into the equation for one of the intersecting arcs to find the numerical value of that intersecting arc:

[tex]10x+20\\x = 15\\\\10(15) + 20\\= 150 + 20\\= 170[/tex]

The sum of all arc measures in a circle is (360) degrees. One can apply this here by stating the following:

[tex]80 + 170 + z = 360[/tex]

Simplify,

[tex]80 + 170 + z = 360[/tex]

[tex]250 + z = 360[/tex]

Inverse operations,

[tex]250 + z = 360[/tex]

[tex]z = 110[/tex]

A race car is traveling at a rate of 36 yards per second. What is the car's speed in miles per hour?

Answers

Answer: The car is traveling at 73.63638 Mph

Step-by-step explanation:

1 yard per second is the same as 3 feet per second.

there are 5280ft per mile

So, at 36 yards per second, the car is traveling at 108/5280th (0.02045455) of a mile per second

0.02045455 * 60 (seconds) * 60 (minutes) = 73.63638 Mph

Step-by-step explanation:

The length is 3 times the width, so in the larger rectangle it will be ...

  length = 3×width = 3×(3 ft) = 9 ft

The length of the larger rectangle is 9 feet.

Additional comment

We used the fact that the ratios of side lengths (length:width) are the same for similar figures.

You can also recognize that the larger rectangle's dimensions are 3/2 times those of the smaller rectangle. (3/2)(6 ft) = 9 ft . . . length of larger rectangle

at what rate percent compound interest is Rs 700 amount to Rs 847 in 2 years?​

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  10%

Step-by-step explanation:

The balance when principal P is invested at rate r compounded n times per year for t years is ...

  A = P(1 +r/n)^(nt)

We have A = 847, P = 700, n = 1, t = 2 and we want to solve for r. Filling in the values and solving the equation gives ...

  847 = 700(1 +r)^2

  √(847/700) = 1 +r = 1.10 . . . . divide by 700 and take the square root

  r = 0.10 = 10% . . . . . subtract 1

An interest rate of 10% compounded annually will give a balance of ₹847.

Find y when x = 4 (30 points)

Answers

Answer:

y = 54/25

Step-by-step explanation:

y = p×q^(x-1)

when x = 1 then y = 10

so,

10 = p×q^(1-1)

or, 10 = p×1

or, p = 10

when x = 6 then y = 0.7776

0.7776=p×q^(6-1)

or, 0.7776=p×q^5

or, 0.7776=10×q⁵

[0.7776 = 7776/10000 = 486/625]

or, 486/625 = 10×q⁵

or, 486/6250=q⁵

or, [tex] \frac{ \sqrt[5]{486} }{ \sqrt[5]{6250} } = q[/tex]

or, [tex]q = \frac{3 \sqrt[5]{2} }{5 \sqrt[5]{2} } [/tex]

or, q = 3/5

so, when x = 4

y = p×q^(x-1)

y = 10×(3/5)^(4-1)

y = 10×(3/5)^3

y = 10×27/125

y = 54/25
