I don't know but i hope it will help
Answer 2

Answer:

Option C)        

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Number of jeans in inventory = 688

The store manager decides to reduce the the stock by giving a buy one get one free scheme.  That means that every purchase will reduce this inventory by 2 pairs of jeans.

This can be represented with the help of equation:

[tex]688 - 2x[/tex]

where x is the number of jeans purchased.

In the above expression the term 2x is the total number of jeans sold, where x is the number of jeans sold. Due to buy one one free offer the jeans reduced from the inventory are double the jeans sold.

Thus, 2x in the equation means that every purchase will reduce the inventory by 2 pairs of jeans where x is the number of purchases.

Circle P has a diameter of 20 feet. Circle Q has a diameter of 30 feet. What is the ratio of the circumference?

Answers

Perimeter of circle = 2πr
2:3.



Answer:

The ratio of the circumferences of Circle P to Circle Q is [tex]\( \frac{2}{3} \).[/tex]

Explanation:

The circumference of a circle is given by the formula \(C = \pi \times d\), where [tex]\(d\)[/tex] is the diameter.

For Circle P with a diameter of 20 feet, the circumference is:

[tex]\[ C_P = \pi \times 20 \][/tex]

For Circle Q with a diameter of 30 feet, the circumference is:

[tex]\[ C_Q = \pi \times 30 \][/tex]

To find the ratio of the circumferences of Circle P to Circle Q, we divide the circumference of Circle P by the circumference of Circle Q:

[tex]\[ \text{Ratio} = \frac{C_P}{C_Q} = \frac{\pi \times 20}{\pi \times 30} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ \text{Ratio} = \frac{20}{30} = \frac{2}{3} \][/tex]

So, the ratio of the circumferences of Circle P to Circle Q is [tex]\( \frac{2}{3} \).[/tex]

Write the number 0.21212121.. as a fraction let x=

Answers

There are 2 repeating decimals, so you will need a 1 followed by 2 zeros which is 100. You'll use 100 soon to multiply an equation.

Let's call the decimal number x.

Write   

        x =     0.212121...

Then multiply the equation above by 100, and write it above that equation.
You end up with

    100x = 21.212121...
          x =   0.212121...

Now set it up as a subtraction, and subtract the second equation from the first equation:

    100x = 21.212121...
          x =   0.212121...
- ----------------------------
      99x = 21

Now solve for x. Divide both sides by 3:

33x = 7

Divide both sides by 33:

x = 7/33

Since x = 0.212121..., an d x = 7/33, that means 0.212121... must equal 7/33.

Answer: the fraction is 7/33

We know that numbers with periodic decimals (there are decimals that repeat infinitely) can be written as a fraction of two integer numbers.

Here we have the number:

0.212121...

Where the decimals "21" are repeating decimals, and we want to write this as a fraction.

And we will find that the fraction form of this number is: 21/99

To find it, first let's define:

x = 0.212121...

Now we need to multiply this by 10^n, where n is the number of repeating decimals, here we have two (2 and 1) then n = 2.

Now we need to multiply:

x×10^2 = x×100 = (0.2121...)×100 = 21.212121...

Now we can subtract the original number so we get:

x×100 - x = x×99 = 21.212121... - 0.212121... = 21

Then we just found that:

x×99 = 21

Solving for x, we get:

x = 21/99 = 0.212121...

Then the fraction that we want to find is 21/99

Answers

1. The price is $50.
The discount is 10% of $50.
10% of $50 = 10% * $50 = 0.10 * $50 = $5
The discount is $5
Now we subtract the actual discount to find the final price.
$50 - $5 = $45
The selling price is $45

2. Use the same method as for problem 1. First find the amount of discount by multiplying the percent by the price. Then subtract the amount of discount from the original price.
The price is $500.
The discount is 20% of $500.
20% of $500 = 20% * $500 = 0.20 * $500 = $100
The discount is $100
Now we subtract the actual discount to find the final price.
$500 - $100 = $400
The selling price is $400

3. The price is $80.
The discount is 5% of $80.
5% of $80 = 5% * $80 = 0.05 * $80 = $4
The discount is $4
Now we subtract the actual discount to find the final price.
$80 - $4 = $76
The selling price is $76

In the diagram, m CD = 128° and m DA = 76°. What is m∠ABC?

Answers

Angle ABC is an inscribed angle.

Inscribed angle = 1/2 * Intercepted Arc

The intercepted arc is arc CD + arc DA, which would be 128 + 76 = 204

m<ABC = 1/2(204)

m<ABC = 102 degrees

You answer is D) 102

Answer: The value of m∠ABC is 102° .

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

m CD = 128°

m DA = 76°

We need to find the m∠ABC, Angle subtended at the center is half of the sum of the measure of the arc intercepted by it.

[tex]\frac{m\ CD+m\ DA}{2}=\angle ABC\\\\\frac{128^\circ+76^\circ}{2}=\angle ABC\\\\102^\circ=m\angle ABC[/tex]

The value of m∠ABC is 102° .

Mr. Smith spent 6 hours hiking along a trail and back. He walked out at the rate of 4 miles per hour and walked back at the rate of 2 miles per hour. How long did it take Mr. Smith to get to the end of the trial?

Answers

To get to the end of the trail it would take 2 hours because the walking back hours would be double the walking out rate, but it would still have to equal 6 hours. So walking out would be 2 hours and walking back would be 4 hours which makes the trail 8 miles long.

Linear equations are algebraic equations which represents the value of variables. These equations have unique solutions or sometimes there may be a number of solutions. Linear equation may contain n number of variables.

Given:  

              [tex]\begin{aligned}\rm\:Total\: time\: taken\: by \:MR. Smith \: &= 6 hours\\\\\rm\:Speed\:while\:going &= 4 \:miles\:per\:hour.\\\\\rm\:Speed \:while\:coming\:back &= 2\: miles\:per \:hour \end[/tex]

Calculations

Let time taken to walk out be [tex]x[/tex] and time taken to walk back be [tex]2x[/tex]. The total time taken will be the summation of [tex]x[/tex] and [tex]2x[/tex] .

                                  [tex]\begin{aligned}\rm\:Total\:time&= 6\:hours\\\\x+2x&= 6\: hours\\\\3x&=6\:hours\end[/tex]

Continuing further,

                                               [tex]x=\dfrac{6}{3}\:hours \\\\x=2\:hours[/tex]

Therefore it can be said that the time taken by Mr. Smith to reach the end of the trial is 2 hours.

It is also observed that the speed while coming back was half of the speed of walking out. So it can be said that the time taken to walk back was twice the time Mr. Smith took to reach the end of the trail.

the tempura temperature halfway to the sun from mercury is aproxamently 1,800 Celsius and scientist theorize that it may be 26,000 times hotter at the center of the sun. aproxamently how hot is the center of the sun

Answers

Final answer:

Using the given approximation, the temperature at the Sun's core would be 46,800,000 degrees Celsius. However, scientific data indicates that the accurate temperature is 15 million degrees Celsius, due to nuclear fusion processes occurring at the core.

Explanation:

If the temperature halfway to the Sun from Mercury is approximately 1,800 Celsius and scientists theorize that it may be 26,000 times hotter at the center of the Sun, we can calculate the temperature at the center by multiplying 1,800 Celsius by 26,000. This gives us an estimated temperature of the sun's core at 46,800,000 degrees Celsius. However, according to scientific data, the temperature near the center of the Sun is thought to be around 15 million degrees Celsius (1.5 ×[tex]10^7[/tex] °C) or kelvin, which is much more accurate than the extrapolation from the original question.

Mercury's proximity to the Sun accounts for its high surface temperatures, but without a significant atmosphere, the temperatures fluctuate dramatically between day and night. At the Sun's core, however, the temperatures reach extremes due to nuclear fusion, which releases vast amounts of energy and maintains the central temperature around 15 million degrees Celsius.

A water tank holds 18,000 gallons. How long will it take for the water level to reach 6000 gallons if the water is used at an average rate of 450 gallons per day?

Answers

2.18,000-6,000=12,000. and then you divide 12,000 by 450 and you get 26 2/3 days.
If the original 18,000 gal of water is draining at a rate of 450 gal/day, we begin by calculating how many gal it needs to drain:
18,000-6,000 = 12,000 gal
Now setup 12,000 gal/1 × 1 day/450 gal, in order to cancel out gallons and have our result in days.
So 12,000/450 = 240/9 = 26.66 days, or a full 27 days rounding to the day

A frozen yogurt shop weighs customers' cups on a scale to determine how much they will pay for their yogurt. The scale rounds weights to the nearest tenth of an ounce. A weight of 10 ounces or more costs at least $3.

Answers

Final answer:

Leslie can find out which yogurt gives her more by converting pounds to ounces. A 2-pound container is equivalent to 32 ounces, which is more than the total of 30 ounces from five 6-ounce containers.

Explanation:

Comparing Yogurt Quantities

To determine which yogurt option provides more quantity, Leslie needs to convert the weights into the same units. This means converting pounds to ounces, or ounces to pounds. In this case, converting pounds to ounces is more straightforward because we deal with whole numbers.

There are 16 ounces in 1 pound, so a 2-pound container of yogurt is equivalent to 32 ounces (2 x 16 = 32). On the other hand, five 6-ounce containers of yogurt total 30 ounces (5 x 6 = 30). Therefore, the 2-pound container gives more yogurt since 32 ounces is more than 30 ounces.

A cylinder has a volume of 320 pi cu. in. and a height of 5". Find the radius of the cylinder.

Answers

Answer:

The radius of cylinder is 8 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given,

Volume of cylinder = 320π   cubic inches

Height of cylinder = 5 inches

We know, Formula for volume of cylinder as : V =πr²h

where r is radius of cylinder and h is the height of cylinder.

So, We can plug values for V and h to get radius of cylinder.

i.e  V = πr²h

320π = πr²* 5

Solving for r.

We get,

320 = r² * 5

320/5 = r²

64 = r²

or r = ±8 , Since radius of cylinder can not a negative number so we neglect -8.

Hence the radius of cylinder is 8 inches.
