C.B. Clothing ordered sweaters at a wholesale cost of $20 each. The store marked up the price 50 percent above the wholesale cost to use as their selling price. After every month that the sweater didn't sell, the store reduced the selling price by 20 percent. After how many monthly price reductions did the price dip below the wholesale cost?
Answer:
2 months
Step-by-step explanation:
The selling price of the sweater = 0.5 x $20 = $30
For every month that the sweater doesn't sell, price is reduced by 20% = 0.2 x $30 = $6
After the first month, price is reduced by $30 - $6 = $24
After the second month, price is reduced by $24 - $6 = $18
Answer: 2 months

A magic carpet is made with three colors of yarn. The ratio of each color in the carpet is shown below: 10 parts gold yarn 7 parts bronze yarn 3 parts silver yarn The magic carpet is made with a total of 150 meters of yarn. How much silver yarn is in the magic carpet?
Answer:
There are 22.5 meters of silver yarn
Step-by-step explanation:
Gold yarn : bronze yarn : silver yarn
10 : 7 : 3
Gold yarn = 10
bronze yarn = 7
silver yarn = 3
Total ratio = 20
Total meters = 150 meters
How much silver yarn is in the magic carpet?
Quantity of silver yarn in the carpet = silver yarn ratio / Total ratio × total meters of yarn
= 3 / 20 × 150
= 450 / 20
= 22.5 meters
There are 22.5 meters of silver yarn
Bronze yarn = bronze yarn ratio / Total ratio × total meters of yarn
= 7 / 20 × 150
= 1,050 / 20
= 52.5 meters
Bronze yarn = 52.5 meters
Quantity of gold yarn in the carpet = gold yarn ratio / Total ratio × total meters of yarn
= 10 / 20 × 150
= 1500 / 20
= 75 meters
Gold yarn = 75 meters

Colin predicted whether he got answers right or wrong in his 50 question exam. He identified the 8 questions he thought he got wrong. It turns out that Colin got 5 questions right that he thought he got wrong. Colin also got a total score of 45 out of 50 in the test. What is the percentage accuracy he had with predicting his scores?
Total questions, T = 50.
Colin thought 8 questions were right.
Colin got 5 questions right that he thought he got wrong.
Total score, s = 45.
So, actual number of questions which are wrong are 5.
Score according to him = 50 - 8 = 42.
Now, we know percentage accuracy is given by :
[tex]\% =100- \dfrac{|Actual\ value-Theoretical\ value|}{Actual\ Vlaue}\times 100\\\\\%=100-\dfrac{|45-42|}{42}\times 100\\\\\%=100-7.14 \%\\\\\%=92.86\%[/tex]
Therefore, percentage accuracy he had with predicting his scores is 92.86%.
Hence, this is the required solution.

Miguel selects five DVDs to purchase. A few of the DVD cases appear to be damaged, so the manager gives Miguel a 20% discount on his entire purchase. Miguel tries to guess how much money will be deducted from the total cost. What is the cost of the DVDs before tax is added? Show your work.
Answer:
d * 0.20 = x
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to calculate the total cost of the DVD's we first need to change the percentage of the discount that Miguel's manager is giving him into decimal format by dividing the percentage by 100 like so...
20 / 100 = 0.20
Now that we have the decimal value we can multiply it by the actual cost of the DVDss to find the total cost before taxes. Since we do not have the actual DVD cost we would make the following equation where x is the final total cost and d is the initial cost of the DVDs.
d * 0.20 = x
What does Direct & Inverse variation mean?
Answer: In direct variation, as one number increases, so does the other. This is also called direct proportion: they're the same thing. ... In inverse variation, it's exactly the opposite: as one number increases, the other decreases. This is also called inverse proportion.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation: Direct variation is the relationship between two variables such that the variables have a constant ratio, k, were k ≠ 0.
If we call our variables a and b, we can use the
following formulas to represent direct variation.
[tex]\frac{a}{b} = k[/tex] or [tex]b = ka[/tex]
Inverse variation is also a relationship between two variables but the difference is that as one variable increases, the other variable decreases.
Suppose that our variables are g and h.
As g increases, h will decrease or as g decreases, y will increase.

Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
11/12 + (-7/12) have the same denominator so you can leave it as is.
11/12+(-7/12) is the same as 11/12-7/12 which is equal to 6/12 which can be simplified to 1/2

Which correctly explains how to estimate 55 percent of 64? Round 55 percent to 40 percent and 64 to 60. Think of 40 percent as One-fourth. So, One-fourth of 60 is 15. Round 55 percent to 60 percent and 64 to 70. Think of 60 percent as One-third. So, One-third of 70 is 23.3. Round 55 percent to 50 percent and 64 to 70. Think of 50 percent as One-fifth. So, One-fifth of 60 is 12. Round 55 percent to 50 percent and 64 to 60. Think of 50 percent as One-half. So, One-half of 60 is 30.

-Add [tex]9[/tex] to both sides:
[tex]8x - 9 + 9 > -17 + 9[/tex]

-The number line (graphed):
John buys two ties that each cost $19.99 he also buys a pair of dress pants that were originally $64 but a discounted by 30% more over he has a coupon for $10 off a purchase of $50 or more purchase finally sales tax is 6% in his state how much did John pay for the ties and pants
Answer:
Cost of ties and pants = $52.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Total cost of ties = $19.99
cost of dress pants = $64, discountted by 30%
discount on dress pants = 30% of 64 = 0.3 × 64 = $19.2
∴ Discounted price of dress pants = 64 - 19.2 = $44.8
Total cost of ties and dress pants = 19.99 + 44.8 = $64.79
Now, let us apply the coupon
coupon = $10 off every purchase of $50 or more
Purchase amount = $64.79 ; therefore coupon applies.
Applying coupon
Purchase amount = 64.79 - 10 = $54.79
sale tax = 6% or purchase price
sale tax = 6% × 54.79
sale tax = 0.06 × 54.79 = $3.29
∴ Final cost of ties and dress pants = 54.79 - 3.29 = $52.5
The distribution of annual profit at a chain of stores was approximately normal with mean \mu = \$66{,}000μ=$66,000mu, equals, dollar sign, 66, comma, 000 and standard deviation \sigma = \$21{,}000σ=$21,000sigma, equals, dollar sign, 21, comma, 000. The executives conducted an audit of the stores with the lowest 20\%20%20, percent of profits. What is closest to the maximum annual profit at a store where the executives conducted an audit?
Answer:
The closest to the maximum profit is [tex]x = \$ 83682[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The mean is [tex]\mu = \$66,000[/tex]
The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = \$ 21000[/tex]
The percentage of profit is 20%
Generally the closest to the maximum annual profit at a store where the executives conducted an audit is mathematically evaluated as follows
[tex]P(X > x ) = 0.20[/tex]
=> [tex]P(X > x ) = P(\frac{X -x}{\sigma } > \frac{x -66000}{21000} ) = 0.20[/tex]
From the z-table the z-score for 0.20 is
[tex]z-score = 0.842[/tex]
So
[tex]\frac{x -66000}{21000} = 0.842[/tex]
=> [tex]x = \$ 83682[/tex]

Find the equation of the line.
Y=__x + __
Answer:
y = 3x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Using slope intercept form: y = mx + b
where m is the slope(rise over run/change in y over change in x), and b is the y intercept(point where x is 0). We can derive the equation by simply using our mathmatical principles of slope and y intercept. Because our y intercept is where x is 0. Our y intercept is 3 since x is 0 when y is 3 because it touches the axis. Since y is 6 when x is one.
y = mx + b
6 = m(1) + 3
-3 -3
_________
3 = m
_________
m = 3
_________
An m of 3 means that you rise 3 every 1 run or 3y every 1x.
Therefore, our equation in slope intercept is:
y = 3x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for the value of [tex]x[/tex]:
[tex]4(2x - 3) = 52[/tex]
-Divide both sides by [tex]4[/tex]:
[tex]2x - 3 = \frac{54}{4}[/tex]

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation: For any triangle, the angles add to 180 degrees
A+B+C = 180
68+46+C = 180
