Nik sells all 72 pencils for 15p each.

Work out Nik's percentage profit.

Give your answer correct to 1 decimal place.

Answer:

The answer would be [tex]-a(-a)^{n-1}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

We can simply substitute the terms into this equation. Checking the 1st term, [tex]-a(-a)^{1-1} = -a(-a)^{0} = -a(1) = -a[/tex]. Moving on to the second term, we see [tex]-a(-a)^{2-1} = -a(-a)^{1} = -a(-a) = a^{2}[/tex]. And so on and so forth. We can see how the answer fluctuates between negative and positive, while gaining one more exponent every term, which fits with the sequence given. Therefore, the answer would be [tex]-a(-a)^{n-1}[/tex].

The formula for perimeter is 2(Length) + 2(width)

Fill in the known information:

22 = 2(6.5)+ 2(width)

Simplify:

22 = 13 + 2(width)

Subtract 13 from both sides:

9 = 2(width)

Divide both sides by 2:

Width = 4.5m

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

We see from the diagram that:

SY = SK + KY

So, substituting the given values:-

36 - x = 13x - 5 + 2x + 9

-x - 13x - 2x = - 5 + 9 - 36

-16x = -32

x = 32/16 = 2.

So SK = 13(2) - 5 = 21.

KY = 2(2) + 9 = 13.

SY = 36 - 2 = 34.

21 + 13 = 34 so this is a check that our calculation is correct.

Answer:

x = 2 degree and unknown angle = 31 degree

Step-by-step explanation:

149 + 13x + 5 =180 degree (being linear pair)

154 + 13x = 180

13x = 180 - 154

x = 26/13

x = 2 degree

unknown angle = 13x + 5

=13*2 + 5

=26 + 5

=31 degree

The value of the variable x is 2°. Then the value of the unknown angle is 31°.

The inclination is the separation seen between planes or vectors that meet. Degrees are another way to indicate the slope. For a full rotation, the angle is 360 °.

Supplementary angle - Two angles are said to be supplementary angles if their sum is 180 degrees.

Both angles are supplementary angles. Then the equation is given as,

13x + 5° + 149° = 180°

13x + 154° = 180°

13x = 180° - 154°

13x = 26°

x = 26° / 13

x = 2°

The value of the variable x is 2°. Then the value of the unknown angle is given as,

13x + 5° = 13(2°) + 5°

13x + 5° = 26° + 5

13x + 5° = 31°

The value of the variable x is 2°. Then the value of the unknown angle is 31°.

Answer:

[tex]x = 97[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]t = 20[/tex] --- time (years)

[tex]A =1000[/tex] --- amount

[tex]r = 10\%[/tex] --- rate of interest

Required

The last 10 payments (x)

First, calculate the end of year 1 payment

[tex]y_1(end) = 10\% * 1000 * 150\%[/tex]

[tex]y_1(end) = 150[/tex]

Amount at end of year 1

[tex]A_1=A - y_1(end) - r * A[/tex]

[tex]A_1=1000 - (150 - 10\% * 1000)[/tex]

[tex]A_1 =1000 - (150- 100)[/tex]

[tex]A_1 =950[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]A_1 = 0.95 * 1000^1[/tex]

Next, calculate the end of year 1 payment

[tex]y_2(end) = 10\% * 950 * 150\%[/tex]

[tex]y_2(end) = 142.5[/tex]

Amount at end of year 2

[tex]A_2=A_1 - (y_2(end) - r * A_1)[/tex]

[tex]A_2=950 - (142.5 - 10\%*950)[/tex]

[tex]A_2 = 902.5[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]A_2 = 0.95 * 1000^2[/tex]

We have been able to create a pattern:

[tex]A_1 = 1000 * 0.95^1 = 950[/tex]

[tex]A_2 = 1000 * 0.95^2 = 902.5[/tex]

So, the payment till the end of the 10th year is:

[tex]A_{10} = 1000*0.95^{10}[/tex]

[tex]A_{10} = 598.74[/tex]

To calculate X (the last 10 payments), we make use of the following geometric series:

[tex]Amount = \sum\limits^{9}_{n=0} x * (1 + r)^n[/tex]

[tex]Amount = \sum\limits^{9}_{n=0} x * (1 + 10\%)^n[/tex]

[tex]Amount = \sum\limits^{9}_{n=0} x * (1 + 0.10)^n[/tex]

[tex]Amount = \sum\limits^{9}_{n=0} x * (1.10)^n[/tex]

The amount to be paid is:

[tex]Amount = A_{10}*(1 + r)^{10}[/tex] --- i.e. amount at the end of the 10th year * rate of 10 years

[tex]Amount = 1000 * 0.95^{10} * (1+r)^{10}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Amount = \sum\limits^{9}_{n=0} x * (1.10)^n[/tex]

[tex]\sum\limits^{9}_{n=0} x * (1.10)^n = 1000 * 0.95^{10} * (1+r)^{10}[/tex]

[tex]\sum\limits^{9}_{n=0} x * (1.10)^n = 1000 * 0.95^{10} * (1+10\%)^{10}[/tex]

[tex]\sum\limits^{9}_{n=0} x * (1.10)^n = 1000 * 0.95^{10} * (1+0.10)^{10}[/tex]

[tex]\sum\limits^{9}_{n=0} x * (1.10)^n = 1000 * 0.95^{10} * (1.10)^{10}[/tex]

The geometric sum can be rewritten using the following formula:

[tex]S_n = \sum\limits^{9}_{n=0} x * (1.10)^n[/tex]

[tex]S_n =\frac{a(r^n - 1)}{r -1}[/tex]

In this case:

[tex]a = x[/tex]

[tex]r = 1.10[/tex]

[tex]n =10[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\frac{x(r^{10} - 1)}{r -1} = \sum\limits^{9}_{n=0} x * (1.10)^n[/tex]

[tex]\frac{x((1.10)^{10} - 1)}{1.10 -1} = \sum\limits^{9}_{n=0} x * (1.10)^n[/tex]

[tex]\frac{x((1.10)^{10} - 1)}{0.10} = \sum\limits^{9}_{n=0} x * (1.10)^n[/tex]

[tex]x * \frac{1.10^{10} - 1}{0.10} = \sum\limits^{9}_{n=0} x * (1.10)^n[/tex]

So, the equation becomes:

[tex]x * \frac{1.10^{10} - 1}{0.10} = 1000 * 0.95^{10} * (1.10)^{10}[/tex]

Solve for x

[tex]x = \frac{1000 * 0.95^{10} * 1.10^{10} * 0.10}{1.10^{10} - 1}[/tex]

[tex]x = 97.44[/tex]

Answer:

C(min)  =  277.95 $

Container dimensions:

x = 2.822 m

y = 1.411 m

h = 3.52 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let´s call x  and  y the sides of the rectangular base.

The surface area for  a rectangular container is:

S = Area of the base (A₁) +  2 * area of a lateral side x (A₂) + 2 * area lateral y (A₃)

Area of the base is :

A₁ =  x*y       we assume, according to problem statement that

x  =  2*y      y  = x/2

A₁  =  x²/2

Area lateral on side x

A₂  = x*h           ( h  is the height of the box )

Area lateral on side y

A₃ = y*h        ( h  is the height of the box )

s = x²/2  + 2*x*h + 2*y*h

Cost  =  Cost of the base + cost of area lateral on x + cost of area lateral on y

C = 10*x²/2  + 8* 2*x*h  + 8*2*y*h

C as function of x is:

The volume of the box is:

V(b) = 14 m³  = (x²/2)*h       28 = x²h      h = 28/x²

C(x) = 10*x²/2  + 16*x*28/x² + 16*(x/2)*28/x²

C(x)  =  5*x²  +  448/x  + 224/x

Taking derivatives on both sides of the equation we get:

C´(x)  =  10*x  -  448/x² - 224/x²

C´(x)  =  0             10x  -  448/x² - 224/x² = 0     ( 10*x³ - 448 - 224 )/x² = 0

10*x³ - 448 - 224 = 0       10*x³ = 224

x³  =22.4

x = ∛ 22.4

x = 2.822 m

y = x/2  =  1.411 m

h = 28/x²  =  28 /7.96

h =  3.52 m

To find out if the container of such dimension is the cheapest container we look to the second derivative of C

C´´(x) = 10 + 224*2*x/x⁴

C´´(x)  =  10 + 448/x³    is positive then C has a minimum for x = 2.82

And the cost of the container is:

C = 10*(x²/2) +  16*x*h + 16*y*h

C = 39.82 +  158.75  + 79.38

C =  277.95 $

Answer:

d = 4.5 cm

A = 1/4 (p x d²)

= 1/4 (3.14 x d x d)

= 1/4 (3.14 x 4.5 cm x 4.5 cm)

= 15.9 cm2

The area of the plate nearest square centimeters is 12cm².

A scalene triangle has three different sides and corresponding to that three different interior angles.

According to the given question we have  triangle with sides  4.5cm,6cm and 7.5cm.

We know for a scalene triangle given 3 sides.

area(A) = [tex]\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)[/tex].

Where S is semi perimeter and a,b,c are the three sides.

= (a+b+c)/2.

= (4.5+6+7.5)/2 cm.

= 18/2 cm.

= 9 cm.

∴ The area of the triangle is

= [tex]\sqrt{9(9-4.5)(9-6)(9-7.5)[/tex]cm².

= [tex]\sqrt{9(4.5)(3)(1.5)}[/tex] cm².

= [tex]\sqrt{182.5}[/tex] cm² this is in between 13 square and 14 square approx 13.5 cm².

Now it has three small circles of radius of 4 mm or 0.4 cm.

We know area of a circle is πr² and area of 3 circles having same radius is 3(πr²) cm².

= 3{π(0.4)²}

= 3{3.14(0.16)} cm².

= 3(0.5024) cm².

= 1.5072 cm².

Now to obtain the area of the scalene triangle with those three holes of 0.4 cm we have subtract the area of the three circles from the triangle which is

= (13.5 - 1.5) cm².

= 12 cm².

Answer:

Number of 10 cents = 18

Number of  20 cents = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of 10 cents be = x

Let number 20 cents be = y

Total number of coins = x + y = 28  -------- ( 1 )

Total amount in the box = 0.10 x + 0.20y = 3.80 ---------- ( 2 )

Solve the equations to find x and y

( 1 ) => x + y = 28

         x = 28 - y

Substitute x in ( 2 )

( 2 ) => 0.10(28 - y) + 0.20y = 3.80

          2.80 - 0.10y + 0.20y = 3.80

            0.10 y = 3.80 - 2.80

            0.10 y = 1.00

                [tex]y = \frac{1}{0.10} = 10[/tex]

                y = 10

Substitute y in ( 1 ) => x + y = 28

                                x + 10 = 28

                                x = 28 - 10

                                x = 18

Answer:

b = -4 and 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the distance formula

D = √(x2-x1)² + (y2-y1)²

√8 = √(b-2)² + (3-1)²

√8 = √(b-2)² + 2²

Square both sides

8 = (b-2)² + 2²

8 = (b-2)² + 4

8 - 4 = (b-2)²

4 = (b-2)²

Square root both sides

±√4 = b- 2

±2 = b - 2

b = -2 - 2 and b = -2 + 2

b = -4 and 0

This gives the values of b

Explanation:

The triangular face has area of base*height/2 = 8*2/2 = 16/2 = 8 square feet.

Multiply this with the depth of the prism to get 8*12 = 96 cubic feet

----------

For any prism, the volume formula is

V = (area of base)*(depth of prism)

The term "depth" can be replaced with "height" and it's the same idea.

In this problem, we have a triangular prism because the parallel sides are triangles.

max rev = 80(4) = $320

Step-by-step explanation:

let us do this in pennies  

R = (100 - x/5)(300 + x)

d/dr = -2x - 200

               5

(-2x-200)/5 = 0  

-2x = 200

x = 100

An amount of $320 is the admission price that should be charged in order to maximize revenue.

Mathematical expression is defined as the collection of the numbers variables and functions by using operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Now, Let x represent the revenue function.

Hence, We can formulate;

x = (3 + 0.1(x))(100 - 2x)

x = 300 - 6x + 10x - 0.2x²

x = 300 + 4x- 0.2x²

x' = 4 - 0.4x

Generally, a maximum revenue occurs when x' = 0:

x' = 4 - 0.4x = 0

4 = 0.4x

x = 4 / 0.4

x = 10

Hence, The admission price,

= 3 + 0.1x

= 3 + 0.1 x 10

= 3 + 1

= $4

Thus, The Maximum revenue is,

= $4 (100 - (10 x 2)

= $4 (100 - 20)

= $4 x 80

= $320

In conclusion, the amount of $320 is the admission price that should be charged in order to maximize revenue.
