The selling price is: $_________

Answers

Answer:

$145.80

Step-by-step explanation:

The original cost of the product was $90.  There was a 162% markup.  In order to get the selling price, I like to take away 100 percent and simply add original price+(original price*62%).  After taking away 100%, I am left with 62%.  I then multiply the original cost ($90) by the remaining percent (62%), getting 55.8.  Following the steps that I originally wrote, I now add 90 to 55.8, getting 145.8.

-7 – 2 =
12 + (-4) =
-8(-6) =

18/-3=

Answers

Answer:

-5 , 8 , 48 , -6

Step-by-step explanation:

-7- -2 = -5

This complies with the rule that 2 negatives make a positive.

12 + (-4) = 8

You just ignore the brackets.

-8(-6) = 48

The -8 next to the bracket with no symbol means you need to multiply, and again 2 negatives make a positive.

18/-3 = -6

As the 18 is not negative, but -3 is, the answer is also a negative because one negative and one positive make a negative!

Hope this helps and have a good day!

Answers

Answer:

X=4 or X=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   1 • -8 = -8  

Step-2 : Find two factors of  -8  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   -2 .

     -8    +    1    =    -7  

     -4    +    2    =    -2    That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above,  -4  and  2  

                    x2 - 4x + 2x - 8

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

                   x • (x-4)

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

                   2 • (x-4)

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

                   (x+2)  •  (x-4)

            Which is the desired factorization

Equation at the end of step

1

:

 (x + 2) • (x - 4)  = 0  

STEP

Theory - Roots of a product

2.1    A product of several terms equals zero.  

When a product of two or more terms equals zero, then at least one of the terms must be zero.  

We shall now solve each term = 0 separately  

In other words, we are going to solve as many equations as there are terms in the product  

Any solution of term = 0 solves product = 0 as well.

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

2.2      Solve  :    x+2 = 0  

Subtract  2  from both sides of the equation :  

                     x = -2

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

2.3      Solve  :    x-4 = 0  

Add  4  to both sides of the equation :  

                     x = 4

Supplement : Solving Quadratic Equation Directly

Solving    x2-2x-8  = 0   directly  

Earlier we factored this polynomial by splitting the middle term. let us now solve the equation by Completing The Square and by using the Quadratic Formula

Parabola, Finding the Vertex:

3.1      Find the Vertex of   y = x2-2x-8

Parabolas have a highest or a lowest point called the Vertex .   Our parabola opens up and accordingly has a lowest point (AKA absolute minimum) .   We know this even before plotting  "y"  because the coefficient of the first term, 1 , is positive (greater than zero).  

Each parabola has a vertical line of symmetry that passes through its vertex. Because of this symmetry, the line of symmetry would, for example, pass through the midpoint of the two  x -intercepts (roots or solutions) of the parabola. That is, if the parabola has indeed two real solutions.  

Parabolas can model many real life situations, such as the height above ground, of an object thrown upward, after some period of time. The vertex of the parabola can provide us with information, such as the maximum height that object, thrown upwards, can reach. For this reason we want to be able to find the coordinates of the vertex.  

For any parabola,Ax2+Bx+C,the  x -coordinate of the vertex is given by  -B/(2A) . In our case the  x  coordinate is   1.0000  

Plugging into the parabola formula   1.0000  for  x  we can calculate the  y -coordinate :  

 y = 1.0 * 1.00 * 1.00 - 2.0 * 1.00 - 8.0

or   y = -9.000

Parabola, Graphing Vertex and X-Intercepts :

Root plot for :  y = x2-2x-8

Axis of Symmetry (dashed)  {x}={ 1.00}  

Vertex at  {x,y} = { 1.00,-9.00}  

x -Intercepts (Roots) :

Root 1 at  {x,y} = {-2.00, 0.00}  

Root 2 at  {x,y} = { 4.00, 0.00}  

Solve Quadratic Equation by Completing The Square

3.2     Solving   x2-2x-8 = 0 by Completing The Square .

Add  8  to both side of the equation :

  x2-2x = 8

Now the clever bit: Take the coefficient of  x , which is  2 , divide by two, giving  1 , and finally square it giving  1  

Add  1  to both sides of the equation :

 On the right hand side we have :

  8  +  1    or,  (8/1)+(1/1)  

 The common denominator of the two fractions is  1   Adding  (8/1)+(1/1)  gives  9/1  

 So adding to both sides we finally get :

  x2-2x+1 = 9

Adding  1  has completed the left hand side into a perfect square :

  x2-2x+1  =

  (x-1) • (x-1)  =

 (x-1)2

Things which are equal to the same thing are also equal to one another. Since

  x2-2x+1 = 9 and

  x2-2x+1 = (x-1)2

then, according to the law of transitivity,

  (x-1)2 = 9

We'll refer to this Equation as  Eq. #3.2.1  

The Square Root Principle says that When two things are equal, their square roots are equal.

Note that the square root of

  (x-1)2   is

  (x-1)2/2 =

 (x-1)1 =

  x-1

Now, applying the Square Root Principle to  Eq. #3.2.1  we get:

  x-1 = √ 9

Add  1  to both sides to obtain:

  x = 1 + √ 9

Since a square root has two values, one positive and the other negative

  x2 - 2x - 8 = 0

  has two solutions:

 x = 1 + √ 9

  or

 x = 1 - √ 9

Solve Quadratic Equation using the Quadratic Formula

3.3     Solving    x2-2x-8 = 0 by the Quadratic Formula .

According to the Quadratic Formula,  x  , the solution for   Ax2+Bx+C  = 0  , where  A, B  and  C  are numbers, often called coefficients, is given by :

                                     

           - B  ±  √ B2-4AC

 x =   ————————

                     2A

 In our case,  A   =     1

                     B   =    -2

                     C   =   -8

Accordingly,  B2  -  4AC   =

                    4 - (-32) =

                    36

Applying the quadratic formula :

              2 ± √ 36

  x  =    —————

                   2

Can  √ 36 be simplified ?

Yes!   The prime factorization of  36   is

  2•2•3•3  

√ 36   =  √ 2•2•3•3   =2•3•√ 1   =

               ±  6 • √ 1   =

               ±  6

So now we are looking at:

          x  =  ( 2 ± 6) / 2

Two real solutions:

x =(2+√36)/2=1+3= 4.000

or:

x =(2-√36)/2=1-3= -2.000

10% of $100 is $10
After first deposit = $100+ $10 = $110
10% of $110 = $11
After second deposit = $110 + $11 = $121

Therefore after their first deposit, both will have the same value in their accounts.

2(3y + 7 + 5) = 196 - 16
what’s the value of y?
And tell me how you know this and why or Y ahahahahahaha

Answers

Answer:

y=60

Step-by-step explanation:

196 - 16 = 180

7 + 5 = 12

12 + 3y = 15y

2 * 15y = 30y

180 ÷ 30 = 60

y = 60

Answer:

y=26

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

2(3y+7+5)=196-16

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2(3y+7+5)=196-16

(2)(3y)+(2)(7)+(2)(5)=196+-16 (Distribute)

6y+14+10=196+-16

(6y)+(14+10)=(196=-16) (Combine Like Terms)

6y+24=180

Step 2: Subtract 24 from both sides.

6y+24-24=180-24

6y=156

Step 3: Divide both sides by 6.

6y/6 = 156/6

y=26

A fruit market equally divided 80 red apples into 8 containers, and equally divided 54 green apples into 6 containers. Natalie bought 1 container of red apples and 1 container of green apples.

Which equation could be used to find n, the total number of apples Natalie bought?


80 ÷ 6 + 54 ÷ 8 = n

80 ÷ 8 + 54 ÷ 6 = n

(80+54)÷(8+6)=n

80 × 8 + 54 × 6 = n

Answers

Answer:

The second one

Step-by-step explanation:

80 / 8 tells how many red

+ 54 / 6 tells how many green

The second one.

80 red apples into 8 containers = 80/8
54 green apples into 6 containers = 54/6

1 container of red = 80/8
1 container of green = 54/6

If I want to find the total of the apples Natalie bought I add the two containers together

So 80/8+54/6=n
n=10 red+9 green
n=19

Part A In "Can Eating Less Meat Cool the Climate?" What advice would the author of, CON: Don't blame farm animals for all those greenhouse gas emissions most likely give based on their viewpoint in the article? One should seek alternative sources of protein. One should continue to eat meat as a part of a healthy, balanced diet. One should consider eating more fish or living a pescatarian lifestyle. One should consider raising their own cattle and growing their own produce as small farms are more sustainable. Question 2 Part B Which evidence from the poem best supports the answer in Part A? "For instance, growing almonds, a darling of health food fans, requires a huge amount of water." " However, it underscores a major point: meat is a highly efficient source of nourishment and tasty too. "It is one thing to push vegetarian diets on the basis of health claims or animal rights. The environmental case against meat is a stretch, however." "They found that a shift toward eating more fruits and vegetables and less meat would increase greenhouse gas emissions by 6 percent." I'm writing a short story about a clown stalking a little girl, it's not finished but can anyone give me a suggestion on what to change in the writing and maybe come up with an ending cause I'm having a bit of trouble.In October of 2016, a twelve-year-old girl named Samantha lived in a suburban town, after school her friend invited her to a Halloween party later at night. She accepted her request but of course like every other kid, they had to get permission. She later came home and asked their parents if she could come to the party, short answer...no. Samantha tries to argue with them but, no luck. Later in the evening, Samantha was getting frustrated. Then she thought I could sneak out of the house while mom and dad are sleeping., and so thats what she did. A few hours later she started to get ready, wearing her witch costume. She quietly sneaks out of her room into the hallway, the wooden floor creaking. She gets to the front door, walks out of the house, and slowly shuts the door. She looked around, seeing the streets were completely empty. She began walking down the street, slowly realizing she didn't know where she was going. After about a few minutes she was completely lost: didn't know her way back home, nor which direction to take. The fear of being alone crept up to her. All of a sudden she hears a bit of laughter coming from behind her. She turns around, her eyes widening as she sees a tall man in a clown costume, looking at her with a sinister smile. Samantha didn't know what to do, she quickly started to walk away, the clown follows. She yells, "Back off creep!". She started running, so did the clown chasing after her. She yelled and screamed for help, nobody was around. She gets to a nearby park losing sight of the clown. She hides behind a tree not knowing what to do. She peeks around seeing him, wandering around looking for her. She was trembling in fear, being cold and alone. Then she heard sirens in the distance and the clown immediately runs away.
