The discount price of a book is 20% less than the
retail price. James manages to purchase the book
at 30% off the discount price at a special book
sale. What percent of the retail price did James
pay?
A) 42%
B) 48%
C) 50%
D) 56%

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let retail be $100

At 20% discount

(100-20)% * 100

0.8*100

$80

At 30% discount

(100-30)%* 80

$56

Answer 2

Using the percentage relationship between cost, the book was purchased at 56% of the retail price.

Let :

Retail price = r

Discount price = 0.8r

Special sale price :

30% off discount price

(1 - 0.30) × 0.8r

0.70 × 0.80r = 0.56r

Hence, the book was purchased at 56% of the retail price.

Need help geometric sequences see pic for details

Answers

Given:

The recursive formula of a geometric sequence is

[tex]a_n=a_{n-1}\cdot (\dfrac{1}{8})[/tex]

[tex]a_1=-3[/tex]

To find:

The explicit formula of the given geometric sequence.

Solution:

We know that, first term of geometric sequence is [tex]a_1=-3[/tex].

Recursive formula of a geometric sequence is

[tex]a_n=a_{n-1}\times r[/tex]      ...(i)

where, r is common ratio.

We have,

[tex]a_n=a_{n-1}\cdot (\dfrac{1}{8})[/tex]    ...(ii)

On comparing (i) and (ii), we get

[tex]r=\dfrac{1}{8}[/tex]

The explicit formula of a geometric sequence is

[tex]a_n=a_1r^{n-1}[/tex]

Putting [tex]a_1=-3[/tex] and [tex]r=\dfrac{1}{8}[/tex], we get

[tex]a_n=-3\left(\dfrac{1}{8}\right)^{n-1}[/tex]

Therefore, the correct option is D.

Alright i believe the answer is 376, to find the answer we need to find the percent of 1/4 and it is 25% so now i must find how many 25's can fit into the 100% or the whole, in this case 4 can fit into it so now i must multiply 94 * 4 = 376

Amelia wants to rearrange the furniture in her room. She makes a scale drawing of her rectangular room,
in which every 2 inches represents 5 feet. On her scale drawing, the area of the room is 24.96 square
inches. If one side of her room is 12 feet long, how long is the other side of her room, in feet?

Answers

Answer:

The other side = 13 feets long

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Scale of drawing : 2 inches represents 5 feets

Area of rectangular room according to scale drawing = 24.96 in²

Length of one side of the room = 12 feets

Length of other side = x

Area of rectangle = Length * width

If :

2 inches = 5 feets

x = 12 feets

x = (12 *2) / 5

x = 4.8 inches

Hence,

For the scaled drawing :

4.8 * width = 24.96

Width = 24.96 / 4.8

Width = 5.2 inches

Converting to feets according to scale:

2 inches = 5 feets

5.2 inches = x feets

x = (5.2 * 5 ) / 2

x = 13 feets

Other side is 13 feets long

Independent random samples of released prisoners in the fraud and firearms offense categories yielded the given information on time served in months. At the 1% significance level, do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the meantime served for fraud is less than that for firearms offenses? Assume that populations standard deviations are the same for both groups. (i.e., we assume σ1 = σ2 .)

Answers

Answer:

Since the computed value of t= -4.654 does not fall in the critical region we therefore accept the null hypothesis . We conclude that there is sufficient evidence to indicate a difference in the means time served for fraud is less than that for firearms offenses.

Step-by-step explanation:

Fraud                                        Firearm

15.2      9.2                              20.1          15.7

11.2       15.8                             20.4          9.8

7.2         5.2                             13.1           13.5

7.7         4.9                            20.7           23.1

7.4        9.8                            10.4            22.2            

∑ 93.6                                             169                    

Fraud  (X1i)²                                      Firearm(X2j)²

231.04      84.64                           404.01          246.49

125.44      249.64                          416.16          96.04

51.84        27.04                            171.61           182.25

59.29       24.01                            428.49           533.61

54.76        96.04                            108.16           492.84

∑1003.79                                                  3079.66          

We formulate the null and alternative hypothesis as

H0: μ1 - μ2 ≤ 0 i.e. the fraud meantime is less than that for firearms offenses.

Ha: μ1-  μ2  > 0  i.e. the fraud meantime is greater than that for firearms offenses.

We set the significance level at ∝= 0.01

The test statistic, if  H0 is true , is

t=  x1`1- x`2/ Sp√1/n1+ 1/n2

which has a student t- distribution with ν= n1+ n2 -2 = 18 degrees of freedom

The critical region consists of all t- values which are greater than or equal to  t> t(0.01)(18)= 2.522

Computations :

X1`= ∑X1i/n1 = 93.6/10= 9.36

X2`=∑X2j/n2=169/10 = 16.9

∑( X1i- x`1)² = ∑X1i²- (∑X1i)²/n1

= 1003.79 - 876.096/10

= 100.379- 87.6096

=12.7694

∑( X2j- x`2)² = ∑X2j²- (∑X2j)²/n2

= 3079.66 - 28561/10

= 3079.66- 2856.1

=223.56

Sp²= 12.7694+223.56/18= 13.129

Sp = √13.129 =3.623

t= 9.36-16.9/ 3.623√0.1+0.1

t= -7.54/ 1.62

t= -4.654

Conclusion: Since the computed value of t= -4.654 does not fall in the critical region we therefore accept the null hypothesis . We conclude that there is sufficient evidence to indicate a difference in the means time served for fraud is less than that for firearms offenses.

The meantime served for fraud is less than that for firearms offenses.
