A ring is now reduced to £840.

This is a saving of 40% of the original price.

Work out the original price of the ring.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:  £1400

==============================================

Work Shown:

If you save 40%, then you pay 100% - 40% = 60% of the original price

final price = 60% of original price

final price = 0.60*(original price)

840 = 0.60x

0.60x = 840

x = 840/0.60

x = 1400

The ring was originally £1400 before the discount.

The sum of the 8th & 4th of an Ap is 24 and sum of and sum of 6th & 10th term is 44 Find the Ap​

Answers

Given:

Sum of 8th & 4th terms of an AP = 24

Sum of 6th & 10th terms = 44

Find:

A.P.

Solution:

We know that,

nth term of an AP = a + (n - 1)d

Hence,

⟹ a + (8 - 1)d + a + (4 - 1)d = 24

⟹ a + 7d + a + 3d = 24

⟹ 2a + 10d = 24 -- equation (1)

Similarly,

⟹ a + 5d + a + 9d = 44

⟹ 2a + 14d = 44 -- equation (2)

Subtract equation (1) from (2).

⟹ 2a + 14d - (2a + 10d) = 44 - 24

⟹ 2a + 14d - 2a - 10d = 20

⟹ 4d = 20

⟹ d = 20/4

⟹ d = 5

Substitute the value of d in equation (1).

⟹ 2a + 10(5) = 24

⟹ 2a = 24 - 50

⟹ 2a = 24 - 50

⟹ 2a = - 26

⟹ a = - 26/2

⟹ a = - 13

We know,

General form of an AP is a , a + d , a + 2d...

Hence,

⟹ required AP = - 13 , - 13 + 5 , - 13 + 2(5)...

⟹ required AP = - 13 , - 8 , - 3....

3x + -18x + 26x + -11x

Answers

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have 3x and subtract 18x from it. This gives you -15x.

Then you have positive 26x, so you add 26x onto -15x.

After doing so, you have a positive 11x.

Now you need to subtract 11x from 11x.

Your final answer is 0! (No need to put x since it is just zero.)

If f(x)=ax²+bx+c and f(1)=6,f(2)=11,f(3)=18 find the value of a,b,c​

Answers

Given:

f(x) = ax² + bx + c

f(1) = 6

f(2) = 11

f(3) = 18

Find:

value of a,b,c​

Solution:

Substitute x = 1 , 2 , 3 in the given polynomial.

★ f(1) = a(1)² + b(1) + c

⟹ 6 = a + b + c -- equation (1)

Similarly,

★ f(2) = a(2)² + b(2) + c

⟹ 11 = 4a + 2b + c -- equation (2)

★ f(3) = a(3)² + b(3) + c

⟹ 18 = 9a + 3b + c -- equation (3)

Subtract equation (1) from (2).

⟹ 4a + 2b + c - (a + b + c) = 11 - 6

⟹ 4a + 2b + c - a - b - c = 5

⟹ 3a + b = 5 -- equation (4).

From equation (3) ,

⟹ 18 - c = 9a + 3b

⟹ 18 - c = 3(3a + b)

Substitute the value of 3a + b from equation (4).

⟹ 18 - c = 3 * 5

⟹ 18 - 15 = c

⟹ 3 = c

substitute the value of c in equation (1).

⟹  6 = a + b + 3

⟹ 6 - 3 = a + b

⟹ 3 = a + b -- equation (5)

Subtract equation (5) from equation (4).

⟹ 3a + b - (a + b) = 5 - 3

⟹ 3a + b - a - b = 2

⟹ 2a = 2

⟹ a = 1

Substitute a value in equation (5).

⟹ 1 + b = 3

⟹ b = 3 - 1

⟹ b = 2

Therefore,

a = 1

b = 2

c = 3.

I hope it will help you.

The average distance from Pluto to the Sun is about 6×109 kilometers. The average distance from Mars to the Sun is about 2×108 kilometers. The average distance from Pluto to the Sun is about how many times greater than the average distance from Mars to the Sun?

Answers

Answer:

The average distance from Pluto to the Sun is 30 times greater than the average distance from Mars to the Sun.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have:

- Distance from Pluto to the Sun ([tex]d_{PS}[/tex]) = 6x10⁹ km

- Distance from Mars to the Sun ([tex]d_{MS}[/tex]) = 2x10⁸ km

Now, we can find how many times greater is [tex]d_{PS}[/tex] than [tex]d_{MS}[/tex] as follows:

[tex] \frac{d_{PS}}{d_{MS}} = \frac{6 \cdot 10^{9} km}{2 \cdot 10^{8} km} = 30 [/tex]

Therefore, the average distance from Pluto to the Sun is 30 times greater than the average distance from Mars to the Sun.

When a whole number is multiplied by 10to the 5th power, how does the placement of the decimal point change? a It moves five places to the right. b It moves ten places to the right. c It moves five places to the left. d It moves ten places to the left.

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is;

a) It moves five places to the right

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying a whole number by 10 raised to a given (positive whole number) power, involves the shifting of the positioning of the decimal places to the right, depending on the value of the positive whole number power to which the 10 is raised

Similarly, multiplying a whole number by 10 raised to a given (negative whole number) power, involves the shifting of the positioning of the decimal places to the left, depending on the value of the negative whole number power to which the 10 is raised.  

The reason is because, the number base generally used for arithmetic is in base 10 and multiplying or dividing by 10 is what is required to change a number's place value

Therefore, multiplying a whole number by 10 raised to the 5th power (10⁵) requires shifting the decimal place 5 places to the right

Example:

x.0 × 10⁵ = x00000.0

Where, x is a whole number.

The first side of a triangle is 2 inches shorter than three times the second side. The third side is 1 inch longer than twice the second side. If the perimeter of the triangle is 101 inches, how long is each side?

(Answer to get brainliest)

Answers

Answer:

17in, 49in, 35in

Step-by-step explanation:

I did this in my RSM homwork and it is correct.

First, I added the two inches shorter to the 101, then subtracted 1 longer and got 102.

then divide 102 by how many second lengths, 6. so 102 ÷ 6 = 17

17 is the second length.

3x17-2=49 (another length)

2x17+1=35 (last length)

and there is your answer!

First side : 49

Second side : 17

Third side : 35

What is the perimeter of a triangle?

If triangle has sides a, b, c , then the perimeter of that triangle will be P= a +b +c.

Now, according to the question

Let  second side be (b) = x unit

then, First side will be  (a)= 3x-2 unit

and Third side will be  (c)= 2x + 1 unit

since , perimeter is 101

P = a + b + c

x + 3x -2 + 2x + 1 = 101

6x - 1 = 101

x= 17

hence , b = 17 unit

a= 3*17 - 2 =49 unit

c = 2*17 +1 = 35 unit

How do I solve for y ?

Answers

Get y on to one size. Subtract 12x from each side to get 8y=-12x+240. Then simplify by dividing each side by 8 to get y alone. y=3/2x+30 or y=1.5x+30

A relation between a collection of inputs and outputs exists comprehended as a function.

If the equation be 12x + 8y = 240 then the value of y exists  30 - (12x/8).

What is meant by function?

A function in mathematics from a set X to a set Y allocates exactly one element of Y to each element of X. The sets X and Y are collectively referred to as the function's domain and codomain, respectively.

A relation between a collection of inputs and outputs exists comprehended as a function.

Let the equation be 12x + 8y = 240

8y = 240 - 12x

simplifying the above equation, we get

y = (240 - 12x) / 8

y = 30 - (12x/8)

Therefore, the value of y = 30 - (12x/8).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Scale : 1 cm : 2.5 inches

A rectangular wall of her birdhouse has a drawing length of 2 cm and a width of 4 cm. What will the actual area of the wall be?
