When a number is decreased by 8.3%, the result is 50. What is the original number to the nearest tenth?

Answers

Answer 1

I'm pretty sure the answer would be 2.

Sorry if it's wrong

Answer 2

If a quantity is decreased by x% the new value of that quantity is (100 -x)% of the old one.The value of original number nearest to tenth is 55.

What is percentage?

A percentage is a value that indicates 100th part of any quantity.

To convert percentage into a fraction it is divided by 100.

Given that,

The percentage of decrease = 8.3%

The number obtained after decrease = 50

Since the number obtained after decrease is the original number minus the decrement in the number by 8.3%.

Thus, the expression for original number N is given by,

N - 8.3% of N = 50

=> N - (8.3 / 100) × N = 50

=> (91.7 / 100) × N = 50

=> N = 50 × (100 / 91.7)

=> N = 54.52

Nearest to tenth its value is 55.

Hence, the original number nearest to tenth is 55.

A bowling ball is placed on the moon.

Which feature of the bowling ball stays the same?


A. force from gravity

B. weight

C. mass

Answers

Answer:

C. mass

Step-by-step explanation:

gravity is different on the moon

and weight is different because of that change in gravity

If the bowling ball is placed on the moon, the feature which will stays same,  mass of the ball. So option C is correct

What is Force ?

The definition of force is the pushing or pulling of anything. Push and pull are the result of two things interacting with one another. Stretch and crush are two more phrases that can be used to describe force.

Given that,

A bowling ball is placed on the moon

So, when ball is placed on moon, it affects the following factors,

Force from gravity - On the Earth and on the Moon the gravitational force will be different.

Weight - On the Earth and On the Moon the gravitational acceleration will be different so weight will be different on both the planets.

Mass- It is the property of the object and it is independent from the planets, it will be same on every planet.

Hence, the  Mass is same on both the planets

Write a reclusive rule for the sequence, then give the next two numbers in the sequence 6,1,7,8,15,23

Answers

Answer:

aₙ = aₙ₋₁ + aₙ₋₂

where:

a₁ = 6

a₂= 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the sequence:

6, 1, 7, 8, 15, 23, ...

Is easy to see that this sequence works as follows:

You take 2 consecutive numbers, and the next number is the sum of these two.

Then we have:

6 + 1 = 7

1 + 7 = 8

7 + 8 = 15

8 + 15 = 23

Then the n-th term is equal to the sum of the (n - 1) term and the (n - 2) term.

This is written as:

aₙ = aₙ₋₁ + aₙ₋₂

Because in the recursive rule needs two previous terms, we need to specify  the two first terms of the sequence.

Then we need to write also:

a₁ = 6

a₂= 1.

Write a function rule that gives the total cost c(p) of p pounds of sugar if each pound costs $0.42.


A. c(p) = p + 0.42

B. c(p) = 42p

C. c(p) = p/0.42

D. c(p) = 0.42p

Answers

Answer:

D. c(p) = 0.42p

Step-by-step explanation:

total cost = .42(P)

Example: 5 lbs

$2.10 = $.42(5)

c(p) = 0.42p <== ur function

Since a pound of sugar increases proportionally to the total cost of sugar bought, then the function can be written as:

c(p) = 0.42p

Where: c(p) = total cost of sugar bought

p = pounds of sugar

c(p) is a function of p, because c(p) depends on p.

Answer: The function rule that gives the total cost is given by

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of pounds of sugar be 'p'.

Let the total cost would be C(p).

Cost of each pound = $0.42

So, the function rule would be

Hence, the function rule that gives the total cost is given by

Circle O has a radius of 5 centimeters and central angle AOB with a measure of 60°. Describe in complete sentences how to find the length, in terms of a radian measure, of AB.

Answers

Answer:

We can use the formula for finding arc length given ccx central angle and radius.(insert formula below) We then substitute 5 in for r and and 60 for x. We multiply 2 pi times 5 which gives us 10. We then reduce the fraction of 60/360 to 1/6. We multiply 10 pi by 1/6 and that gives us

10 pi/6 or 5 pi/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the formula

[tex]2\pi \times r( \frac{x}{360} )[/tex]

to find the arc length where r is the radius.

and x is the arc measure.

Plug it in for the numbers

[tex]2\pi \times 5( \frac{60}{360} )[/tex]

Multiply 2 pi times 5=10 pi

[tex]10\pi( \frac{60}{360} )[/tex]

Simplify 60/360 to 1/6

[tex]10\pi \times \frac{1}{6} = \frac{10\pi}{6} [/tex]

Reduce it to
