An article that is marked $500 was sold for $450 after a discount is given. Calculate the percentage discount given

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

10% discounted

Step-by-step explanation:

500× X = 450

while X is the sale price

so we solve for X

(500X)÷500 = 450 ÷ 500

X = 0.9

then we turn that into percentage

0.9 × 100 = 90%

finding the discount percentage

100% - 90% = 10%

The sum of 2 consecutive whole numbers is 206. What are the 2 numbers

Answers

Answer:

102.5, 103.5

Step-by-step explanation:

a+a+1=206

2a+1=206

2a=205

a=102.5

103.5

I think there is a bug here. They can't be whole numbers.

Answer:

There are no two consecutive whole numbers that sum to 206 (See proof below)

Step-by-step explanation:

let the first number be x

since the numbers are whole and consecutive, the second number must be (x + 1)

we are given that the number sum to 206

hence,

x + (x+1) = 206

x + x + 1 = 206

2x + 1 = 206  (subtract 1 from both sides)

2x = 206 - 1

2x = 205  (divide both sides by 2)

x  = 205/2 = 102.5  (NOT A WHOLE NUMBER)

if x = 102.5, then the second number must be

x + 1 = 102.5 + 1 + 103.5 (ALSO NOT A WHOLE NUMBER)

You purchase a $1,500 television. You have to pay 6% sales tax. How much will the tax be on your new television?

Answers

Answer:

90 dollars. The total will be $1,590.00.

Step-by-step explanation:

6% of 1500 is 90

We start by converting 6% to a fraction :

6% = 3/50  

Then we have

6% of 1500 = 3/50 x 1500 = 3/50 x 1500/1 = 4500/50

Notice that 1500 was rewritten as the fraction 1500/1, and that to multiply two fractions together, you simply multiply the numerators and denominators.

In order to find the simplest form of the fraction 4500/50 we cancel out the greatest common divisor of 4500 and 50, which is 50 :

4500/50=90/1

So the final answer is

6% of 1500=90

whar is the LCM of 1/6 and 3/8​

Answers

Answer: 24

==========================================

There are 3 methods to find the lowest common multiple (LCM)

---------------------------

Method 1

List out the multiples of 6 and 8

multiples of 6 = {6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, ...}

multiples of 8 = {8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, ...}

We see that 24 is the smallest number in both sets at the same time. So this is the LCM.

---------------------------

Method 2

Write the prime factorization of 6 and 8

prime factorization of 6 = 2*3

prime factorization of 8 = 2*2*2

The unique prime factors here are 2 and 3. We have 2 show up at most three times meaning that 2*2*2 = 8 is a factor of the LCM. The number 3 is also a factor meaning that 8*3 = 24 is the LCM.

---------------------------

Method 3

Multiply the denominators 6 and 8 to get 6*8 = 48

48 is a common multiple, but its not the smallest

we can divide 48 over the GCF 2 to get 48/2 = 24, which is the actual LCM.

So when you have 2 different denominators, you can multiply their values and then divide by the GCF to get the LCM.

Step-by-step explanation:

A 90° CCW transformation is ...

  (x, y) ⇒ (-y, x)

For A(5, -2), the image point is A'(2, 5).

_____

In your mind, draw a line segment from the origin to point A. You will see that is slope is (rise)/(run) = -2/5.

When you rotate that segment 90° CCW about the origin, it will extend into the first quadrant. The rotated segment is perpendicular to the one you started with, so its slope is ...

  -1/(-2/5) = 5/2

That is, it will have a rise of 5 for a run of 2. The point A' will have a x-coordinate of 2 (the run), and a y-coordinate of 5 (the rise).

As you are walking down a path, you see a sign telling the path has a 2% grade (ie., a rise of 2 metres for a horizontal change of 100m). Which of the following expressions will calculate the angle between the path and horizontal?

Answers

Answer:

Option (A)

Step-by-step explanation:

It has been given in this question that sign telling path has a 2% grade.

2% grade means a rise of 2 meters for a horizontal change of 100 m (As given in the figure attached).

All the trigonometric ratios for the angle θ between the path and the horizontal are,

Sinθ = [tex]\frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}[/tex]

Cosθ = [tex]\frac{\text{Adjacent side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}[/tex]

tanθ = [tex]\frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Adjacent side}}[/tex]

Since measures of the opposite side and adjacent sides are given

Therefore, tangent ratio will be applied to get the measure of the angle,

tanθ = [tex]\frac{2}{100}[/tex]

θ = [tex]\text{tan}^{-1}(\frac{2}{100})[/tex]

Option (A) will be the answer.

x = 2

X intercept = (2,0)

Y intercept do the same

Y intercept make x into 0

x intercept is found when y = 0:

3x - 2(0) = 6

x = 2.

x intercept is found when x = 0:

3(0) - 2y = 6
