The local newspaper has letters to the editor from 50 people. If this number represents 2​% of all of the​ newspaper's readers, how many readers does the newspaper​ have?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The newspaper has 2500 readers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The local newspaper has letters to the editor from 50 people.

This is the 2% of all newspaper readers.

Let x be the number of all newspaper readers.

Then. 2% of x= 50

[tex]\Rightarrow\ 0.02x=50\ \ [\text{To remove }\% \text{we divide number by 100}]\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{50}{0.02}=\dfrac{5000}{2}=2500\\\\\Rightarrow x=2500[/tex]

Hence, the newspaper has 2500 readers.

In triangle DEF, segment DJ is a perpendicular bisector of side EF. If EJ is 3y-8 and JF is 7y-40, what is the length of JF?

Answers

Answer: The length of JF = 16 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: In triangle DEF, segment DJ is a perpendicular bisector of side EF.

i.e. DJ is perpendicular to EF and DJ divides EF into two equal parts EJ and JF. [The perpendicular bisector is a line that is perpendicular to a line segment and splits it into two congruent segments.]

If  EJ is 3y-8 and JF is 7y-40.

Then, [tex]3y-8=7y-40[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow\ 7y-3y=40-8\\\\\Rightarrow\ 4y=32\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=8 \text{ [Divide both sides by 4]}[/tex]

JF= 7(8)-40 =56-40= 16 units

Hence, the length of JF = 16 units.

Your bank pays 4% annual interest compounded quarterly on January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1. You deposited $840 on April 1 and made no other deposits or withdrawals. Find your savings account balance on January 1 of the next year.

Your bank pays 4% annual interest compounded quarterly on January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1. You deposited $840 on April 1 and made no other deposits or withdrawals. How much interest did you earn for these nine months?

Answers

Answer:

The interest earned in 9 months is $25.45284

Step-by-step explanation:

The interest rate given by the bank = 4%

The rate at which the interest is applied = Quarterly

The amount of money deposited = $840

The formula for compound interest is given as follows;

[tex]Compound \ interest = P \times \left [ \left(1 + \dfrac{r}{n} \right )^{t \times n} - 1\right ][/tex]

Where;

P = The principal = $840

r = The rate = 4% = 0.04

n = The number of times the interest is compounded per period  = quarterly = 4

t = The time duration in period = 9 months = 3/4 × 1 year

Substituting the values gives the Compound interest C.I. as follows;

[tex]C.I. = 840 \times \left [ \left(1 + \dfrac{0.04}{4} \right )^{\dfrac{3}{4} \times 3} - 1\right ] = 840 \times \left [ \left(1 + \dfrac{0.04}{4} \right )^{ 3} - 1\right ] = \$ 25.45284[/tex]

The interest earned in 9 months = $25.45284.

A point has the coordinates (0, k).

Which reflection of the point will produce an image at the same coordinates, (0, k)?

a reflection of the point across the x-axis
a reflection of the point across the y-axis
a reflection of the point across the line y = x
a reflection of the point across the line y = –x

Answers

Using reflection concepts, it is found that the correct option is:

a reflection of the point across the y-axis

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

The rule for a reflection of a point across the x-axis is: [tex](x,y) \rightarrow (x,-y)[/tex], thus [tex](0,k) \rightarrow (0,-k)[/tex]The rule for a reflection of a point across the y-axis is: [tex](x,y) \rightarrow (-x,y)[/tex], thus [tex](0,k) \rightarrow (-0,k) = (0,k)[/tex]. This is the correct option.The rule for a reflection of a point across the line y = x is: [tex](x,y) \rightarrow (y,x)[/tex], and thus, [tex](0,k) \rightarrow (k,0)[/tex].The rule for a reflection of a point across the line y = -x is: [tex](x,y) \rightarrow (-y,x)[/tex], and thus, [tex](0,k) \rightarrow (-k,0)[/tex].

A rectangle has a length that is three feet more than twice it's width. The perimeter of the rectangle is 78 feet. State the value for the width.

Answers

Let the width of the rectangle be 'w'

According to the question length of the rectangle (l) is three feet more than twice it's width;

[tex] \longrightarrow [/tex] l = (2w + 3) ft

Perimeter of rectangle = 78 ft

Formula of perimeter of rectangle = 2(Length + Width)

So,

[tex] \rm \implies 2(Length + Width) = 78 \\ \\ \rm \implies 2(2w + 3 + w) = 78 \\ \\ \rm \implies 2(3w + 3) = 78 \\ \\ \rm \implies 2 \times 3(w + 1) = 78 \\ \\ \rm \implies 6(w + 1) = 78 \\ \\ \rm \implies w + 1 = \dfrac{78}{6} \\ \\ \rm \implies w + 1 = 13 \\ \\ \rm \implies w = 13 - 1 \\ \\ \rm \implies w = 12 \: ft[/tex]

[tex] \therefore [/tex] Width of the rectangle (w) = 12 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept equation is y = mx + b:

    m is the slope

    b is y-intercept

When you read slope you can also read it as rise over run. Rise is move up or down on the y axis depending if number is negative or positive. Run is move left or right on x axis depending if number is negative or positive.

Example: y = [tex]\frac{10}{3} x - 5[/tex]

Start at the y-intercept which is -5. On graph you can see the line crosses the y axis at (0, -5). From this point rise 10 then run 3 you'll end up at point (3, 5). Connect the dots of the two points and you'll see a line like the one in the problem.

O 110°

Answers

Answer:

The angle of CAD is 100°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that total angles in a triangle is 180° so you will have to find the angle of CAB :

∠CAB + ∠ACB + ∠ABC = 180°

∠CAB + 80° + 20° = 180°

∠CAB + 100° = 180°

∠CAB = 180° - 100°

∠CAB = 80°

Next, you have to subtract it from 180° because straight line have a degree of 180°

∠CAD = 180° - 80°

∠CAD = 100°

Pulling out like terms

4.1     Pull out like factors :

  6k3 + 10k2 - 56k  =   2k • (3k2 + 5k - 28)

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

4.2     Factoring  3k2 + 5k - 28

The first term is,  3k2  its coefficient is  3 .

The middle term is,  +5k  its coefficient is  5 .

The last term, "the constant", is  -28

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   3 • -28 = -84

Step-2 : Find two factors of  -84  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   5 .

     -84    +    1    =    -83

     -42    +    2    =    -40

     -28    +    3    =    -25

     -21    +    4    =    -17

     -14    +    6    =    -8

     -12    +    7    =    -5

     -7    +    12    =    5    That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above,  -7  and  12

                    3k2 - 7k + 12k - 28

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

                   k • (3k-7)

             Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

                   4 • (3k-7)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

                   (k+4)  •  (3k-7)

            Which is the desired factorization

Final result :

 2k • (3k - 7) • (k + 4)
