In 2001, gold was priced at (0.5x + 300) dollars per ounce. Its price tripled in 2008 and then doubled in 2011. In 2016, its price dropped to 2 3of the price in 2011.• Write an expression for the price of gold per ounce in 2016.• Explain how you found the expression. Write your expression and explanation in the space below
Given:
Price of gold in 2001 = (0.5x+300)
Its price tripled in 2008 and then doubled in 2011. In 2016, its price dropped to [tex]\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex] of the price in 2011.
To find:
An expression for the price of gold per ounce in 2016.
Solution:
We have,
Price of gold in 2001 [tex]= (0.5x+300)[/tex]
Its price tripled in 2008.
Price of gold in 2008 [tex]= 3(0.5x+300)[/tex]
Then doubled in 2011.
Price of gold in 2011 [tex]= 2\times 3(0.5x+300)[/tex]
In 2016, its price dropped to [tex]\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex] of the price in 2011.
Price of gold in 2016 [tex]=\dfrac{2}{3}\times 2\times 3(0.5x+300)[/tex]
[tex]=2\times 2(0.5x+300)[/tex]
[tex]=4(0.5x+300)[/tex]
[tex]=4(0.5x)+4(300)[/tex]
[tex]=2x+1200[/tex]
Therefore, the required expression for the price of gold per ounce is (2x+1200).
solve for x????????
Answer:
x=54º
Step-by-step explanation:
So the angle is a 90º angle because of that square so you subtract 36 by 90 which will become 54
Hope this helps!
Answer:
x= 54º
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's break this down...
First, you have to look at the whole angle and if you are lucky you find a square.
The square is always equal to 90º
So to find x you need to subtract 90 and 36 which is 54

4. In one day, a movie theater collected $4600 from 800 people. The price of admission is $7 for an adult and $5 for a child. How many adults and how many children were admitted to the movie theater that day? I
Answer:
this is a system of equations , and it's no surprise that it's tricky for you. these are tricky for anyone.
Step-by-step explanation:
X=adults
Y=children
I only know to make these two equations from experience doing these types of questions.
X+Y=800
7X +5Y=4600
there are a few ways to solve this , i"m just going to multiply the first equatlion by 7 and the subtract the 2nd from that whole equation.
7(X +Y=800)
7X +7Y = 5600
-(7X +5Y =4600)
0X +2Y = 1000
Y = 500 ( 500 children went to the movies )
by inspection you can probably see that 300 adults had to go too
500 kids
300 parents
also that's 4600 dollars to let those people in
7(300) + 5(500) = 4600
2100 + 2500 = 4600

Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
−2(−x+4)−3x+2=−5
(−2)(−x)+(−2)(4)+−3x+2=−5(Distribute)
2x+−8+−3x+2=−5
(2x+−3x)+(−8+2)=−5(Combine Like Terms)
−x+−6=−5
−x−6=−5
Step 2: Add 6 to both sides.
−x−6+6=−5+6
−x=1
Step 3: Divide both sides by -1.

Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
6 ([tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex] + 4) ≥ 9 ( distribute the parenthesis by 6 )
3x + 24 ≥ 9 ( subtract 24 from both sides )
3x ≥ - 15 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x ≥ - 5 → A
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
First, divide both sides by 6:
6(x/2 + 4) ≥ 9
x/2 + 4 ≥ 9/6
x/2 + 4 ≥ 3/2
Now, subtract 4 from both sides:
x/2 ≥ 3/2 - 4
x/2 ≥ -5/2
Finally multiply both sides by 2:
x ≥ (-5/2) * 2
x ≥ -5
The answer is thus A.

4n - 40 = 7* (-2n + 2) Remove the brackets
4n - 40 = - 14n + 14 Add 14n to both sides
4n+14n - 40 = -14n+14n + 14 Combine
18n - 40 = 14 Add 40 to both sides
18n = 14 + 40 Combine
18n = 54 Divide by 18
18n/18 = 54/18 Combine

Ivan is getting ready for a long road trip. He wants to pack a few books from his collection of 5 novels and 7 collected short stories books. He asks his friend to select a book without showing. From the remaining books, Ivan then himself picks a random book, which turns out to be a novel. The third book that he randomly selects from the remaining ones is also a novel. Find the probability that Ivan will have 3 novels to read during the road trip.
Answer:
The probability that Ivan will have 3 novels to read during the road trip is 0.0455
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
number of novels = 5
number of short stories = 7
total number of books = 12
The probability that Ivan's friend pick's a novel = 5 / 12
The probability of Ivan's first pick to be a novel = 4 / 11
The probability of Ivan's second pick to be a novel = 3 /10
The probability that Ivan will have 3 novels to read during the road trip is given by;
= p(Ivan's friend pick) and P(Ivan's first pick) and P(Ivan's second pick);
[tex]= \frac{5}{12}*\frac{4}{11}*\frac{3}{10}\\\\ = \frac{1}{22}\\\\ = 0.0455[/tex]
Therefore, the probability that Ivan will have 3 novels to read during the road trip is 0.0455
Given a rhombus ABCD with vertices A(2,6), B(6,7), C(5,3), and D(1,2). What would the coordinates of its image be if it was rotated 180° about the origin?
Answer:
The coordinates would be A(6,2), B(7,6), C(3,5), D(2,1)
Step-by-step explanation:
When conducting a 180 degree rotation, you can just reverse the points to get your answer.
The required coordinate of the rhombus when rotates around the origin by 180° is A(-2, -6), B(-6,-7), C(-5, -3), and D(-1, -2).
Given that,
Given a rhombus ABCD with vertices A(2,6), B(6,7), C(5,3), and D(1,2). What would the coordinates of its image be if it was rotated 180° about the origin is to be determined.
Coordinate, is represented as the values of positions on the x-axis and y-axis of the graph
here,
Given the coordinates of the rhombus, A(2,6), B(6,7), C(5,3), and D(1,2).
Now, after rotation through 180° around the origin is A(-2, -6), B(-6,-7), C(-5, -3), and D(-1, -2), because while rotating the rhombus it would go to the third quadrant.
Thus, the required coordinate of the rhombus when rotates around the origin by 180° is A(-2, -6), B(-6,-7), C(-5, -3), and D(-1, -2).

C.B. Clothing ordered sweaters at a wholesale cost of $20 each. The store marked up the price 50 percent above the wholesale cost to use as their selling price. After every month that the sweater didn't sell, the store reduced the selling price by 20 percent. After how many monthly price reductions did the price dip below the wholesale cost?
Answer:
2 months
Step-by-step explanation:
The selling price of the sweater = 0.5 x $20 = $30
For every month that the sweater doesn't sell, price is reduced by 20% = 0.2 x $30 = $6
After the first month, price is reduced by $30 - $6 = $24
After the second month, price is reduced by $24 - $6 = $18

TILE Mark is purchasing new tile for his bathrooms. The home improvement store charges $48 for each box of tiles when three or fewer boxes are purchased, $45 for each box when 4 to 8 boxes are purchased, $42 for each box when 9 to 19 boxes are purchased, and $38 for each box when more than nineteen boxes are purchased a. Write a piecewise-defined function describing the cost of the boxes of tile. b. What is the cost of purchasing 5 boxes of tile? What it is the cost of purchasing 19 boxes of tile?
Answer:
Kindly check explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
3 boxes or less = Cost of tiles = $48
4 - 8 boxes ; cost = $45
9 - 19 boxes ; cost = $42
> 19 boxes ; cost = $38
Cost of purchasing 5 boxes of tiles :
$45 * 5 = $225
Cost of purchasing 19 boxes :
$42 * 19 = $798
Find the x- and y-intercepts of the graph of the linear equation −4x+8y=−16.
The x-intercept is
.
The y-intercept is
Answer:
x-intercepts is (4,0)
y -intercepts is (0,-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Using slope intercept form, x- intercept is (4,0) and y - intercept is (0,-2)
What is slope intercept form and how it can be used to find y and x intercept of the line?The slope intercept of a line is given by the equation y = m x+ c
y is y coordinate, x is x coordinate, m is the slope of the line
c is y- intercept of the line
y- intercept can also be found if a point on the line is given say (a, b) and slope is given .We put this point in the given slope intercept form and find c.
For finding x - intercept, put y = 0 in the equation and find value of x.
Given line -4x +8y = -16
Then add 4x both sides , we get
⇒4x+4x +8y = -16+4x
⇒ 8 y = 4x -16
Divide both sides by 8
⇒ y = (4/8) x - (16/8)
⇒ y = (1/2)x -2
Comparing this equation with y =mx+c
⇒ c =-2
Put y = 0 in the equation y = (1/2)x -2
⇒ 0 = x/2 -2
⇒2 = x/2
⇒4 =x
Therefore x- intercept is (4,0) and y - intercept is (0,-2)
