John's sister went shopping with him. She expected to spend $100 on clothes, but spent only $10. John wanted to help her calculate the percent error, but he thinks he may have made a mistake. Are his calculations below correct? Why or why not?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

10%

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer: John’s calculations are not correct. He compared the exact value to the absolute error. The absolute error should be in the numerator and the exact value in the denominator.

A local florist charges $15 for delivery plus $2.75 per flower for all flower arrangements. When Marcus got the bill for a flower arrangement he ordered, it was less than $50. Which of the following could not represent the number of flowers in the arrangement Marcus ordered?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given

All Charges

$15 for delivery

and $2.75 per flower

let the number of flowers delivered be x

and the total charges for x flowers be y

the linear function for the total charges is

y=2.75x+15

Step two:

when y=$50

50=2.75x+15

50-15=2.75x

35=2.75x

divide both sides by 2.75

x=35/2.75

x=12.72

Note: we are not given the options. We only solved for the flower arrangements

Therefore the number of flowers in the arrangement Marcus ordered

is 12.72 flowers

Answer:

The values of k that make the given equation having imaginary roots are:

k < -18, or (-∞,-18).

Step-by-step explanation:

Nature of the Roots of a Quadratic Equation

The standard representation of a quadratic equation is:

[tex]ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex]

where a,b, and c are constants.

Solving with the quadratic formula:

[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

The expression:

[tex]d=b^2-4ac[/tex]

Is called the discriminant. The discriminant determines the nature of the roots of a quadratic equation as follows:

If d=0, there is only one real root.

if d>0, there are two different real roots

if d<0, there are two different imaginary (complex) roots

We are given the equation:

[tex]-2x^2+12x+k=0[/tex]

Comparing with the standard quadratic equation, we have:

a=-2, b=12, c=k

Calculating the discriminant:

[tex]d=12^2-4(-2)k[/tex]

[tex]d=144+8k[/tex]

If the equation has imaginary roots, then d<0, thus:

144 + 8k < 0

Subtracting 144:

8k < -144

Dividing by 8:

k < -18

The values of k that make the given equation having imaginary roots are: k < -18, or (-∞,-18).

The volume of a fish tank is given by the function V(x)=(x+7)(x-4)(x+3). Write a function describing a fish tank that has the same height but is longer in length by 3 units and wider by 2 units.

Answers

Answer:

V(x)=(x+9) * (x-4) * (x+6)

Step-by-step explanation:

A fish tank is normally in the shape of a rectangular prism. The volume of a rectangular prism can be calculated using the following formula

V = w * h * l

where w represents the width, h represents the heigh, l represents the length, and V represents the volume of the rectangular prism/fish tank. Therefore, we can use the function provided in the question and simply add 3 units to the length and 2 units to the width in order for it to work for our new fish tank.

V(x)=(x+9) * (x-4) * (x+6)

Jason and Bailey found a venue for their wedding. The venue requires a $500 deposit to hold the venue for a certain date. If this was 10% of the cost of the venue, how much will Jason and Bailey pay for the venue?

Answers

Answer:

$5,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given

initial deposite= $500

10% of the venue is $500

let the cost of the venue be x

Required

cost of the venue

10/100*x=500

0.1x=500

divide both sides by 0.1

x=500/0.1

x=$5000

Therefore the cost of the venue is $5,000

AB: 1/3 slope       (Full formula y=1/3x+7)

(-6,7)(-3,8) --->  8-7 over -3-(-6) = 1/3

If a1=5 and an= -5an-1 then find the value of a5.



Answers

Answer:

The value of a5 is 3125

Step-by-step explanation:

Recursive Sequence

It refers to the sequences where each term is given as a rule that depends on one or more of the previous terms, unlike explicit sequences where a general term is given and we can calculate any term without knowing the value of the previous terms, except for the first one.

The sequence is given as:

[tex]a_1=5[/tex]

[tex]a_n=-5a_{n-1}[/tex]

To find the value of a5, we need to find the previous terms first:

[tex]a_2=-5a_{1}=-5*5=-25[/tex]

[tex]a_3=-5a_{2}=-5*(-25)=125[/tex]

[tex]a_4=-5a_{3}=-5*125=-625[/tex]

[tex]a_5=-5a_{4}=-5*(-625)=3125[/tex]

The value of a5 is 3125
