A hailstorm caused damage at a car lot. A compact car usually sells for
$27,500, but the damaged cars are discounted to $17,875. What was the
percent discount on a damaged compact car?

Answer:

Value of a =3

Value of b =5

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]If\ the\ polynomial\ p\left(x\right)\ =\ 2x^3\ +\ ax^{2\ }-\ 7x\ +b,\ p\left(1\right)\ =\ 3\ and\ p\left(2\right)\ =\ 19,\ find\ a\ \&\ b[/tex]

We are given p(1)=3 and p(2)=19

Putting x =1 to find p(1)

[tex]p\left(x\right)\ =\ 2x^3\ +\ ax^{2\ }-\ 7x\ +b\\p(1)=2(1)^3+a(1)^2-7(1)+b\\We \ know \ p(1)=3\\3=2+a-7+b\\3=-5+a+b\\a+b=3+5\\a+b=8[/tex]

Now putting x=2 as p(2)=19

[tex]p\left(x\right)\ =\ 2x^3\ +\ ax^{2\ }-\ 7x\ +b\\p(2)=2(2)^3+a(2)^2-7(2)+b\\We \ know \ p(2)=19\\19=2(8)+4a-14+b\\19=16+4a-14+b\\4a+b=19-16+14\\4a+b=17[/tex]

Solving these equations to find values of a and b

[tex]a+b=8---eq(1)\\4a+b=17---eq(2)[/tex]

Subtract both equations

[tex]a+b=8\\4a+b=17\\-\ \ \ - \ \ \ -\\------\\-3a=-9\\a=\frac{-9}{-3}\\a=3[/tex]

So, value of a =3

Now finding value of b bu putting value of a in equation 1

[tex]a+b=8\\3+b=8\\b=8-3\\b=5[/tex]

So, Value of b =5

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 2 (1 - 4x) = 3x + 8 ( distribute parenthesis on left side )

- 2 + 8x = 3x + 8 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

- 2 + 5x = 8 ( add 2 to both sides )

5x = 10 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Any number multiplying to a variable will be a term, but not a constant.

A constant is a term, just one without variables.

We are given 6y + 29. 6y would be a term and 29 would be another term. Since 29 has no variables, it will be the constant.

Answer:

A’ (6,-2)

B’ (1,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to give the coordinates after a counterclockwise rotation of 90 degrees

Given a point with coordinates (x,y)

A counterclockwise rotation at 90 degrees to the origin will yield the coordinates (-y,x)

So A (-2,-6) will be A’ (6,-2) while B (3,-1) will be B’ (1,3)

Answer:

42 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

x=42°

Step-by-step explanation:

In any triangle, when all three angles are added together, their sum will always be 180°:

∠1+∠2+∠3=180

Insert any known values:

[tex]29+109+x=180[/tex]

Simplify the addition:

[tex]138+x=180[/tex]

Use inverse operations to find angle three. Subtract 138 from both sides:

[tex]138-138+x=180-138\\\\x=42[/tex]

Therefore, the unknown angle is 42°.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

They're asking for what other information is needed.

We were given triangle ABC is congruent to triangle DEF. We know for certain line AB and line DC are congruent to each other as well as lines BC and EF.

The additional information we need to know is if line AC is congruent to line DF to absolutely be sure.

Remember SSS by definition is:  Triangles are congruent if all three sides in one triangle are congruent to the corresponding sides in the other. If all three sides in one triangle are the same length as the corresponding sides in the other, then the triangles are congruent.

SSS congruence of triangles is proved when all three sides of considered two triangles are congruent(that is, of equal measures).

Thus, the needed answer is:

Line segment DF is congruent to line segment AC

or [tex]\overline{DF} \cong \overline{AC}[/tex]

If two considered triangles have corresponding side pairs congruent(for all three sides), then both the triangles are congruent. This proof of congruence is triangle is done by SSS congruence of triangles (Side Side Side congruence)

Since it is given that the sides CB and FE are congruent,

and since it is given that sides AB and DE are congruent too,

thus, for SSS congruence of both considered triangles, we need the third side pair of the given triangles to be congruent too.

Thus, we need the line segment DF congruent to the line segment AC.

We can write it symbolically as:

[tex]\overline{DF} \cong \overline{AC}[/tex] (remember that order doesn't matter here. You could've written [tex]\overline{AC} \cong \overline{DF}[/tex] too.)

Answer:

8:10

Step-by-step explanation:

If Timothy has some coins in a jar. He has 6 pennies,8 nickels,10 dimes, and four quarters. Then 4:5 is the ratio of the number of nickels to the number of dimes

A ratio is an ordered pair of numbers a and b, written a / b where b does not equal 0.

Given,

Timothy has some coins in a jar.

The number of Pennies = 6

The number of Nickels = 8

The number of dimes =10

The number of quarters =4

We need to find the ratio of  the number of nickels to the number of dimes

8/10

4/5

Hence 4:5 is the  ratio of  the number of nickels to the number of dimes

Answer:

The new vertices will be: A'(-1,-3), B'(-2,-2) and C'(-4,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Rotation about the origin depends on the degrees the point is being rotated and direction of rotation.

Let (x,y) be a point on the xy-coordinate plane,

When this point will be rotated about origin 90 degrees counter clockwise, the coordinates of the point become (-y,x) which means that the coordinates will be exchanged and y will be negated.

Given vertices of triangle are:

A(-3, 1), B(-2, 2), and C(-3, 4)

After rotation the new points will be:

A(-3, 1) => A'(-1,-3)

B(-2,2) => B'(-2,-2)

C(-3,4) => C'(-4,-3)

Hence,

The new vertices will be: A'(-1,-3), B'(-2,-2) and C'(-4,-3)

y=1.5x+2.5 ,

y=32x+52 ,

y=32x+2.5 ,

or

y=1.5x+52

The equation in slope-intercept form to model the cooking time in minutes, y, for x patties is y = (3/2)x + 1.

We know lines have various types of equations, the general type is

Ax + By + c = 0, and the equation of a line in slope-intercept form is

y = mx + b.

Where slope = m and b = y-intercept.

the slope is the rate of change of the y-axis with respect to the x-axis and the y-intercept is the (0,b) where the line intersects the y-axis at x = 0.

Given,  On a box of chicken patties state that one patty should be cooked for 2.5 minutes in the microwave.

If more than one patty is cooked, an additional 1.5 minutes should be added per patty.

So,  The equation in slope-intercept form to model the cooking time in minutes, y, for x patties.

If we write this as y = 1.5x + 2.5 and put x = 0 , y = 2.5 which is not satisfying the given statement.

∴ y  = 1.5x + (2.5 - 1.5). (the additional patty cooking time).

y = 1.5x + 1.

y = (3/2)x + 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

let boys be x and girls be y

x/y=5/6

x=5y/6....(1)

if 6 boys join the club that will be x+6

Therefore:

(x+6)/y=13/12

13y=12x+72

13y-12x=72

Recall x=5y/6

Therefore:

13y-12(5y/6)=72

13y-(2*5y)=72

13y-10y=72

3y=72

y=24 people

Therefore:

x=(5*24)/6

x=20 people

Therefore people in the club before are 20+24=44

Answer:

Vectors are usually described in terms of their components in a coordinate system. Even in everyday life we naturally invoke the concept of orthogonal projections in a rectangular coordinate system. For example, if you ask someone for directions to a particular location, you will more likely be told to go 40 km east and 30 km north than 50 km in the direction 37° north of east.

In a rectangular (Cartesian) xy-coordinate system in a plane, a point in a plane is described by a pair of coordinates (x, y). In a similar fashion, a vector

A

in a plane is described by a pair of its vector coordinates. The x-coordinate of vector

A

is called its y-component. The vector x-component is a vector denoted by

Answer:

She can cut 180 (9 - inch) pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

A dressmaker needs to cut 9-inch pieces of ribbon from rolls of ribbon that are 9 feet in length. How many 9-inch pieces can the dressmaker cut from 15 of these rolls of ribbon? Before you try that problem, answer the question below.

Step 1

How many inches of ribbon does the dressmaker have, in total?

1 roll of ribbon = 9 feet

15 rolls of ribbon = x feet

x = 15 roll × 9 feet

x = 135 feet

Converting from Feet to inches

1 foot = 12 inches

135 feet = x inches

Cross Multiply

x = 135 × 12 inches

x = 1620 inches

The dress maker cuts 9 inches each

How many 9-inch pieces can the dressmaker cut from 15 of these rolls of ribbon?

15 rolls of ribbon = 1620 inches of ribbons

Hence: = 1620 inches/9

= 180 pieces

She can cut 180 (9 - inch) pieces

Answer:

90.24 divided by 6.3

Step-by-step explanation:

For reaching to the answer, we have to test each of the options given

The first option says that the divisor and dividend is 90.24 and dividend is 6.3

Now if we rounded it

So it would be 90 and 6

So, the quotient is

= 90 ÷ 6

= 15

Hence, the first option is correct

i.e. 90.24 divided by 6.3

And, all the other options are wrong
