A plant nursery is having a sale. Potted begonias are marked down 27%, and tomato seedlings are marked down 35%. If you pay $6. 57 each for two potted begonias and $2. 60 each for three tomato seedlings, how much did you save? a. $3. 83 b. $5. 31 c. $6. 92 d. $9. 6.

Answers

Answer 1

Based on the markdowns and the number of each of the plants purchased, the amount saved is $9.06

Potted Begonias cost $6.57 when discounted by 27%. Their cost must be:

Discounted cost = Original cost x (1 - Discount)

6.57 = Original x (1 - 27%)

Original = 6.57 / 0.73

Original = $9.00

The savings here are therefore:

= 2 x (9 - 6.57)

= $4.86

The original cost of the Tomato seedlings is:

= 2.60 / ( 1 - 35%)

= $4.00

Savings would be:

= 3 x (4 - 2.60)

= $4.20

Total savings are therefore:

= 4.86 + 4.20

= $9.06

In conclusion, $9.06 was saved.

Four times the first number minus three times the second number is 2. Two times the first number increased by three times the second is 10. Find both numbers.

Answers

Answer:

First number is -2.5

Second number 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Four times the first number minus three times the second number is 2.

To represent this statement, 4x -3y =2

Two times the first number increased by three times the second is 10.

To represent thsi statement, 2x+ 3y = 10

4x - 3y = 2

2x + 3y =10

4x - 2x = 2x

2x = -5

x= -2.5

The first number is -2.5

By using Substitution

2x + 3y = 10

2(-2.5) + 3y = 10

-5 + 3y = 10

3y = 10 +5

3y =15

y = 5

The second number is 5

....To check my answer

-5 + 15 = 10

2 (x + 4) = 2 (-8 - x) - 2x

Answers

Answer:

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

2[x + 4] = 2[-8 + -1x] + -2x

Reorder the terms:

2[4 + x] = 2[-8 + -1x] + -2x

[4 * 2 + x * 2] = 2[-8 + -1x] + -2x

[8 + 2x] = 2[-8 + -1x] + -2x

8 + 2x = [-8 * 2 + -1x * 2] + -2x

8 + 2x = [-16 + -2x] + -2x

Combine like terms: -2x + -2x = -4x

8 + 2x = -16 + -4x

Solving

8 + 2x = -16 + -4x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '4x' to each side of the equation.

8 + 2x + 4x = -16 + -4x + 4x

Combine like terms: 2x + 4x = 6x

8 + 6x = -16 + -4x + 4x

Combine like terms: -4x + 4x = 0

8 + 6x = -16 + 0

8 + 6x = -16

Add '-8' to each side of the equation.

8 + -8 + 6x = -16 + -8

Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0

0 + 6x = -16 + -8

6x = -16 + -8

Combine like terms: -16 + -8 = -24

6x = -24

Divide each side by '6'.

x = -4

Simplifying

x = -4

2( x + 4) = 2 (-8 -x) -2x

Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by x + 4.

2x + 8 = 2 (-8 -x) - 2x

Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by -8 -x.

2x + 8 = -16 -2x - 2x

Combine -2x and 2x to get -4x.

2x + 8 = -16 - 4x

Add 4x to both sides.

2x + 8 + 4x = -16

Combine 2x and 4x to get 6x.

6x + 8 = -16

Subtract 8 from both sides.

6x = -16 - 8

Subtract 8 from -16 to get -24.

6x = -24

Divide both sides from 6.

x = [tex]\frac{-24}{6}[/tex]

Divide by -24 by 6 to get -4.

x = -4.

Answers

x intercepts: (9,0)
y intercepts: (0,-6)

Answer:

Y intercept = (0,-6)

X intercept = (9,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the y-intercept of an equation, let x = 0 and then solve for y

6(0) - 9y = 54 (6 times 0 gives us 0)

0 - 9y = 54 (subtract 9y from 0 gives you -9)

-9y = 54 (divide both sides by -9, the left side cancels out and the right side gives you -6)

y = -6 and x = 0

To find the x-intercept of the equation just let y = 0 and then solve for x

6x - 9(0) = 54 (9 times 0 gives us 0)

6x - 0 = 54 (subtract 0 from 6x gives us 6x)

6x = 54 (divide both sides by 6, left side cancels, right side gives 9)

x = 9 and y = 0

A red die is tossed and a green die is tossed.what is the probability that a red die shows an even number or the green die shows an even number? Make sure your answer is reduced

Answers

Answer: 75%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 3 even numbers on each die and 3 odd, each dice has a 50% chance of showing an even number.

An easier way to think about this might be what are the chances that both dice show odd, because that is the only scenario where neither show an even number.

To do this, simply multiply the chances together:

[tex]0.5 * 0.5 = .25[/tex]

Therefore, there is a 25% chance that both die will be odd, meaning there is a 75% chance that one or both of the dice show an even number

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For a given function f(x), we define the domain as the set of the possible inputs of the function and the range as the set of the outputs of the function.

We will see that both domain and range are the set of all real numbers.

D = (-∞, ∞)

R = (-∞, ∞)

Here we have the function:

The first thing we need to do is find the domain.

We start by assuming that the domain is the set of all real numbers and then we try to find some given values of x that cause some undefined operation, and then we remove these values of x from the domain.

Where this would be something like a zero in the denominator or something like that. We also could have specific restrictions to the domain that are applied in some specific cases (for example if x represents a length we should remove the negative values from the domain).

Here we can see that we do not have any indetermination, thus the domain is the set of all real numbers.

Now to study the range we need to see the general function, we can see that as x tends to negative infinity y will also tend to negative infinity, while when x tends to infinity y will also tend to infinity.

Then the range will also be the set of all real numbers.

How fast is the area of a square increasing when

0.8 m/min?
A. 4.8 m2 /min
B. 1.875 m²/min
C. 3.25 m2 /min
D. 5.5 m² /min

Answers

Using implicit differentiation, it is found that the area of the square is increasing at a rate of:

A. 4.8 m²/min

The area of a square of side length l is given by:

[tex]A = l^2[/tex]

Applying implicit differentiation, the rate of change is given by:

[tex]\frac{dA}{dt} = 2l\frac{dl}{dt}[/tex]

The side is 3 m in length, hence [tex]l = 3[/tex].Growing at a rate of  0.8 m/min, hence [tex]\frac{dl}{dt} = 0.8[/tex]

Then:

[tex]\frac{dA}{dt} = 2l\frac{dl}{dt} = 2(3)(0.8) = 4.8[/tex]

Hence, option A is correct.

PLEASE HELP ILL GIVE A HEART AND 5 STARS In Canada, just like in China, eating at McDonalds was a novelty for us. In the wake of post-Mao economic reforms, the belated introduction of the Golden Arches to China represented a whole ethos about what constituted the good life. Fast food might connote easy accessibility or overindulgence in the West, but McDonalds presented a different kind of comfort for my family and me. The cost of a burger was hardly a trivial thing for us at the time, and my parents didnt actually treat me to meals there all that often. When they did, we always got takeout so we could eat our burgers and fries around our Formica dining table, on our own plates. The hope was to have our fast food as slowly as we could. The Filet-O-Fish became my menu item of choice. Its virtues are too many to count; doing so would be futile. As McDonalds only seafood-based option, the Filet-O-Fishs semblance of relative health appealed to my parents. Luckily it was also McDonalds most delicious item. It played to my Chinese palate: While other McDonalds buns were toasted, the Filet-O-Fishs was steamed, much like the baozi2. From its honeyed starch to its tangy tartar and savory fillet, the taste of the Filet-O-Fish carries an ineffable umami-ness. At once sweet and sour, it reminds me of orange-chicken sauce: a plausibly Chinese flavor mass-produced in America. Eating one always felt transportive the equivalent of Prousts madeleine3 for my Chinese diasporic upbringing. The Filet-O-Fish is the gold standard of fast food for many Asian-Americans, as well as other minority American communities. Invented by an Ohio franchise owner in 1962, the first Filet-O-Fish was the answer to the problem of McDonalds falling sales on Fridays, when observant Catholics abstained from eating meat. Born from an attempt to market fast food to as many people as possible, the tasty little unit has since been further claimed by everyone from fish-loving Chinese-Americans to practicing Muslims to well, anyone with taste. By 1965 the sandwich had gone national. Its appeal is inscrutable, perhaps out of proportion to its paltry constituent parts. Consider the recognizably flaky fish patty, made from the ubiquitous Alaskan pollock. Pollock is everywhere, writes the marine fisheries biologist Kevin M. Bailey in the book Billion-Dollar Fish. It is the pure white meat in fish sticks bought at Walmart and Filet-O-Fish burgers ordered in McDonalds. But you wouldnt want the fish to be more interesting. The generic quality of pollocks fishiness common enough for various cuisines to lay claim to it is part of its allure. So maybe what makes the sandwich beloved isnt its taste at all, but the juxtaposition of its elements: A single fillet of fried fish, topped with a thin slice of American cheese and tartar sauce, all of it cradled in a bun whose impossible roundness suggests the triumph of industrial food production. As a child, I was under the fantasy that my obsession with such a strange sandwich was eccentric. When I went to McDonalds with friends who got Chicken McNuggets Happy Meals or cheeseburgers, ordering the Filet-O-Fish made me feel as if I was in on some sort of secret. After a few years in Montreal, my dad landed a good government job in Victoria, British Columbia. On our drive across Canada, we indulged in the prospect of my dads earning a real salary by eating at McDonalds almost daily, a whirlwind of Filet-O-Fish meals (for me) and hamburgers (for my parents). But my experience was shattered when I, fancying myself different, pointed out that my parents both loved hamburgers while I, a renegade, preferred the Filet-O-Fish. Well, I like the Filet-O-Fish most too, my mother put it candidly. But it is expensive, so we only buy it for you. These days, the sandwich is more expensive than ever; its also less beautiful than I remember. At some point, the Filet-O-Fish underwent rebranding: An ostentatious paper box replaced the modest blue wrapper, while what I remember being a full slice of cheese seems to have shrank by half. McDonalds insists that the cheese has always been half a slice so as not to overwhelm the fishiness of the fillet. Todays unboxing experience most often reveals limp cheese sagging off the patty, frequently stuck to the ill-advised box. Where is the madeleine of my youth?
