Tiffany put a $1550 item on layaway by making a 20% down payment and agreeing to pay $120 a month. How many months sooner would she pay off the item if she increased her monthly payment to $180?
A. 18 months sooner
B. 11 months sooner
C. 4 months sooner
D 7 months sooner

Answers

Answer 1

1550*0.8=1240

1240/120 = approximately 11 months to pay off

1240/180=approximately 7 months to pay off

11-7 =4

 so it would be paid off 4 months sooner, so C is the answer

Answer 2
Answer:

Option: C is the correct answer.

                   C. 4 months sooner.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount of the item is: $ 1550

Also, Tiffany paid 20% of the amount by down payment.

Hence, the amount left to pay after the down payment is:80% of total amount.

i.e. 0.80 of total amount.

= 0.80×1550

= $ 1240

Now the number of month it will take if she pay $ 120 a month is:

[tex]=\dfrac{1240}{120}=10.3333[/tex]

which is approximately equal to 11 months.

Similarly, the number of month it will take if she pay $ 180 a month is:

[tex]=\dfrac{1240}{180}=6.8889[/tex]

which is approximately equal to 7 months.

Hence, the number of months sooner she will pay off is:

                                11-7=4 months.

The area (A) of a circle with a radius of r is given by the formula A=pier^2 and its diameter (d) is given by d=2r. Arrange the equations in the correct sequence to rewrite the formula for diameter in terms of the area of the circle.

Answers

[tex]A= \pi r^2 \ \ \text{and} \ \ d=2r \ \ \to r= \frac{d}{2} \\ \\ A= \pi *( \frac{d}{2} )^2 \\ \\A= \frac{ \pi d^2}{4} \\ \\ 4A= \pi d^2 \\ \\ d^2= \frac{4A}{ \pi } \\ \\ d= \sqrt{ \frac{4A}{ \pi } } [/tex]

Final answer:

The diameter d of a circle can be expressed in terms of the area A by first solving the area formula A = πr^2 for r, giving r = √(A/π), and then substituting r into the diameter formula d = 2r, resulting in d = 2√(A/π).

Explanation:

To rewrite the formula for the diameter of a circle in terms of the area, we start with the given formula for area A = πr^2 and the equation for diameter d = 2r. Our aim is to express the diameter d solely in terms of the area A. To achieve this, we rearrange the area formula to solve for the radius r:

A = πr^2r^2 = A/πr = √(A/π)

Then, we substitute r into the diameter formula:

d = 2rd = 2√(A/π)

Thus, the diameter d can be expressed in terms of the area A as d = 2√(A/π).

The students in the fourth grade sold 684 erasers for a fund-raiser. They sold 4 times as many erasers as the students in fifth grade. How many erasers did the students in 5 grade sell?

Answers

4 graders sold 4 times as many erasers as the students in fifth grade
so
684 / 4 = 171

answer
students in 5 grade sold 171 erasers 

The students in fifth grade sold 171 erasers

How Many Erasers Did the Fifth Grade Students Sell?

The question asks us to find out how many erasers the students in fifth grade sold based on the sales of fourth graders. We are told that the fourth grade students sold 684 erasers and that this number is 4 times the amount sold by the fifth graders. To find the number of erasers sold by the fifth graders, we need to perform a division operation.

Setting up the equation, let x be the number of erasers the fifth-grade students sold. Thus, 4x = 684. To solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 4. Therefore, x = 684 / 4 = 171.

So, the students in fifth grade sold 171 erasers for the fund-raiser.

Two right triangles are graphed on a coordinate plane. One triangle has a vertical side of 2 and a horizontal side of 6. The other triangle has a vertical side of 10 and a horizontal side of 30.

Could the hypotenuses of these two triangles lie along the same line?

No, because they are not similar triangles
No, because one is larger than the other
Yes, because they are both right triangles
Yes, because they are similar triangles

Answers

Compare the vertical/horizontal ratios to the slope of a line.  In the first triangle the vertical/horizontal ratio (which can also be described as the rise over the run, which is the slope definition) is 2/6 or 1/3.  In the second triangle, the vertical/horizontal ratio is 10/30 or 1/3.  Both of the third sides have a slope of 1/3, so the answer is the last one.

Yes, because they are similar triangles

A. 2.1

B. 28.6

C. 9.8

D. 2.2

Answers

I think the answer is B not sure
ANSWER

[tex]9.8[/tex]


EXPLANATION

Triangle ABC is similar to triangle ADC,
therefore the corresponding sides sides are in the same proportion.


[tex] \frac{AB}{AD} = \frac{BC}{CD} [/tex]



We substitute the values to obtain,


[tex] \frac{AB}{16.7} = \frac{4.5}{7.7} [/tex]


We multiply through by
[tex]16.7[/tex]

to get,

[tex] AB= \frac{4.5}{7.7} \times 16.7[/tex]

This simplifies to give us,

[tex] AB= 9.75940259402....[/tex]

To the nearest tenth,

In which quadrant is sin positive and tan positive?

Answers

That would be Quadrant 1, which is the quadrant in the top right corner.

Sin corresponds to the y-value, so sin would be positive at Quadrants 1 and 2.

Tan, which is y/x (sin/cos), is positive at Quadrants 1 and 3.

So at quadrant 1 is where both sin and tan are positive.

The length of a rectangle is 2 yd longer than its width. if the perimeter of the rectangle is 24 yd , find its area.

Answers

Width = x
Length = x +2
Perimeter = 24
Area = Width • Length = ?

Perimeter = 24 = 2(x +2) + 2(x)
= 2x + 4 + 2x
= 4x + 4
= 20 = 4x
= 5 = x

Width = x = 5, therefore Length = (5) + 2 = 7

Area = Width • Length = 5 • 7 = 35

Area = 35 yards

Jennifer is on a trip and travels a distance of 150 miles. she spends some of her time walking, and some of her time travelling by train. if she spends w hours walking and t hours travelling by train, what is the meaning of 3w in the equation below? 50t + 3w =150

Answers

Final answer:

In the equation 50t + 3w = 150, 3w represents the distance Jennifer travels by walking in 3 hours.

Explanation:

In the equation 50t + 3w = 150, the term 3w represents the distance Jennifer travels by walking. Since w represents the number of hours she spends walking, 3w represents the distance she walks in 3 hours. This is because the rate of walking is constant, so if Jennifer walks for 1 hour and covers a certain distance, she would walk 3 times that distance in 3 hours.

Jack is building a deck that is 8 ft by 27.63 ft. He has the base built; he just needs to cover the surface with wood. When he gets to the hardware store he finds sheets of wood that are four ft by eight ft. Use estimation to determine how many sheets of wood he should buy to cover the surface of the deck.

Answers

The area of the deck is :
A ( deck ) = 8 * 27.63 = 221.04 ft²
The area of the sheet of wood:
A ( sheet ) = 4 * 8 = 32 ft²
221.04 : 32 = 6.9 ≈ 7 ( we need a whole number )
Answer: He should buy 7 sheets of wood to cover the surface of the deck.

In the diagram, which two points are shown to be collinear?

Answers

In the given diagram, the points that are shown to be collinear are H and E.

Collinearity in geometry refers to the condition where three or more points lie on the same straight line. In this case, points H and E are collinear as they lie on the same straight line, which is represented by a vertical double-headed arrow passing through them.

The diagram consists of two parallelograms, labeled 'I M' and 'E P', with three points inside each. In the parallelogram 'I M', the points are labeled as I, H, and J from top to bottom. Similarly, in the parallelogram 'E P', the points are labeled as F, E, and G from top to bottom. Among these points, only H and E share the same straight line, making them collinear. The other points do not share this line and hence are not collinear with H and E. This concept is fundamental in understanding geometric relationships and properties.

What are the amplitude, period, and midline of f(x) = 3 cos(4x − π) + 2?

Answers

Amplitude: 3; period: pi/2; midline: y = 2

Answer:

The amplitude of the function is 3, period of the function is [tex]\frac{\pi}{2}[/tex] and midline of the function is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

[tex]f(x)=3\cos(4x-\pi)+2[/tex]               .... (1)

The standard form of a Cosine function is

[tex]g(x)=a\cos(bx+c)+d[/tex]               ... (2)

where, a is amplitude, period is [tex]\frac{2\pi}{b}[/tex] and d is midline.

From (1) and (2), we get

[tex]a=3,b=4,d=2[/tex]

The amplitude of the function is

[tex]a=3[/tex]

The period of the function is

[tex]\frac{2\pi}{b}=\frac{2\pi}{4}=\frac{\pi}{2}[/tex]

The midline of the function is

[tex]d=2[/tex]

Therefore the amplitude of the function is 3, period of the function is [tex]\frac{\pi}{2}[/tex] and midline of the function is 2.
