Percy paid $24. 10 for a basketball. The price of the basketball was $22. 99. What was the sales tax rate?.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$3.11

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to subtract 24.10 from 22.99

Answer 2

Answer:

First let's find the increase of the original price to it's new price;

24.10 - 22.99 = 1.11, there was a $1.11 increase.

Though, we need to find the percentage, using the formula:-

Changed price       100

____________ x _____ (100%)

Original amount        1

Our changed price was 1.11, and our original price was 22.99.

 1.11          100

_____ x _____ = 4.828 which rounds to 4.83%

22.99        1

While performing a vertical line test on a graph, you notice that the graph intercepts the vertical line twice. Which of the following correctly interprets the result of the test? (1 point) Because the vertical line intercepted the graph exactly twice, the graph is of a function. Because the vertical line intercepted the graph more than once, the graph is of a relation, but it is not a function. Because the vertical line did intercept the graph exactly twice, the graph is a function and a relation. Because the vertical line intercepted the graph more than once, the graph is of a function, but it is not a relation.

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is;

Because the vertical line intercept the the graph more than once, the graph is of a relation but it is not a function

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is a kind of relation that maps a given set of inputs unto a set of outputs such that each of the values of the input can be linked to only one value of the output, such that the input and outputs form a set of ordered pairs

Therefore, a relation which maps a given input to more than one output is not a function, as such, given that the line intercepts the vertical line twice, then for a given value of x, which is the input, there are more than one value of y, which is the output, as such the relation is not a function.

Twice the sum of a number x and 9 is equal to 12 less than the number x.  What is the value of x?

Answers

Answer:

x = -30

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number.

2(x + 9) = x - 12

Use distributive property of multiplication

2x + 18 = x - 12

Simplify by combining like terms

2x - x = -12 - 18

x = -30

Use the Distributive Property and simplify the expression. 11+5(2x − 3) + 1

Students reported practicing violin during the last semester for 45, 38, 52, 58, and 42 hours. What is the mean absolute deviation for the number of hours students practiced the violin? Round to the nearest tenth. 6. 4 6. 8 32 47.

Answers

The mean absolute deviation for the number of hours students practiced the violin is 6.4.

What is the mean absolute deviation?

The average absolute deviation of the collected data set is the average of absolute deviations from a center point of the data set.

Given

Students reported practicing violin during the last semester for 45, 38, 52, 58, and 42 hours.

The given data set is;

45, 38, 52, 58, 42

Mean Deviation = Σ|x − μ|/N.

μ = mean, and N = total number of values

|x − μ| = |45 − 47| = 2

|38− 47| = 9

|52− 47| = 5

|58− 47| = 11

|42− 47| = 5

The mean absolute deviation for the number of hours students practiced the violin is;

[tex]\rm Mean =\dfrac{2+9+5+11+5}{5}\\\\Mean=\dfrac{32}{5}\\\\Mean = 6.4[/tex]

Hence, the mean absolute deviation for the number of hours students practiced the violin is 6.4.

Find the equation of this line.
y = x + [ ]

Answers

Its y=x + 2 the line doesnt in 1

The Equation of line is y = -x + 3.

What is Slope?

A line's slope is determined by how its y coordinate changes in relation to how its x coordinate changes. y and x are the net changes in the y and x coordinates, respectively. Therefore, it is possible to write the

change in y coordinate with respect to the change in x coordinate as,

m = Δy/Δx where, m is the slope

Take the points (4, -1) and (0, 3).

so, the slope of line is

m = (3+ 1)/ (0-4)

m = 4/ (-4)

m = -1

So, the equation of line

y= mx+ b

y= -x + b

and, 3 = b

So, the required equation is y = -x + 3.

Which equation represents each dimension of the larger triangle, y, based on the corresponding dimension of the smaller triangle, x?

Y= 2/3x
Y= 3x
Y= 1/3x
Y= 3/2x

How can you use the given side lengths of the triangles to check if your equation is correct?

Answers

Answer:

  (b)  y = 3x; check using dimensions from the figure

Step-by-step explanation:

The dimensions in the larger triangle are more than the dimensions in the smaller triangle. That means the smaller dimensions need to be multiplied by a value greater than 1 to get the larger dimension. (This eliminates the 1st and 3rd choices.)

__

Equation

The figures are drawn approximately to scale, so it is easy to see that the larger triangle's dimensions are more than double (2 times) those of the smaller triangle. (This eliminates the 4th choice. 3/2 < 2)

The equation that represents the larger dimensions in terms of the smaller ones is ...

  y = 3x

Check

You can check this by choosing a smaller dimension and using that in the equation:

  bottom leg = 3 in

  larger bottom leg = y = 3(3 in) = 9 in . . . . matches the diagram

The number of parts into which the whole has been divided is shown by the denominator. It is positioned in the fraction's lower portion, below the fractional bar.How many sections of the fraction are displayed or chosen is shown in the numerator.

what is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-4,2) and has a slope of -5/4

Answers

Answer:

The answer is

[tex] \huge y = - \frac{5}{4} x - 3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find an equation of a line given the slope and a point we use the formula

[tex]y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)[/tex]

where

m is the slope

( x1 , y1) is the point

From the question the point is (-4,2) and slope of -5/4

We have

[tex]y - 2 = - \frac{5}{4} (x + 4) \\ y - 2 = - \frac{5}{4} x - 5 \\ y = - \frac{5}{4} x - 5 + 2[/tex]

What is an Inequality Equation?

Inequalities are the mathematical expressions in which both sides are not equal. In inequality, unlike in equations, we compare two values. The equal sign in between is replaced by less than (or less than or equal to), greater than (or greater than or equal to), or not equal to sign.

In an inequality, the two expressions are not necessarily equal which is indicated by the symbols: >, <, ≤ or ≥.

Given data ,

Let the inequality equation be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

Let the length of the equilateral triangle be L

And , each of the lengths of the triangle is at most 9 feet long means that each of the lengths is less than or equal to 9 feet

So , L ≤ 9 feet

And , the perimeter of an equilateral triangle is the addition of the three equal lengths

So , 3L ≤ 27 feet

Therefore , the value of A is 3L ≤ 27 feet

Hence , the inequality equation is 3L ≤ 27 feet
