Mary Jo spends $1,450 to buy stock in two companies. She pays $15 a share to one of the companies and $20 a
share to the other. If she ends up with a total of 90 shares, how many shares did she buy at $15 a share and how
many did she buy at $20 a share?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

she bought 70 shares of the $15 shares

she bought 20 shares of the $20 shares

Step-by-step explanation:

this would be solved using simultaneous equation

let a = $15 shares

b = 20 shares

a + b = 90   equation 1

15a + 20b = 1450  equation 2

Multiply  equation 1  by 15

15a + 15b = 1350  equation 3

subtract  equation 3 from  equation 2

5b = 100

b = 20

substitute for b in  equation 1

20 + a = 90

a = 70

The inverse of the function

Answers

Answer:

It should be B

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer would be B because when you are finding the inverse you would need to set the variable in this case f(x) to f(x)^-1. Which means you need to divide each term by 3 and then after solve for y

If the cost, C(x), for manufacturing x units of a certain product is given by
C(x) = x2 – 15x + 34
find the number of units manufactured at a cost of $8350.

Answers

Answer:

99 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost function for manufacturing x units of a certain product is:

[tex]C(x)=x^2-15x+34[/tex]

We want to find the number of units manufactured at a cost of $8350. Therefore:

[tex]8350=x^2-15x+34[/tex]

Subtract 8350 from both sides:

[tex]x^2-15x-8316=0[/tex]

This equation can be a bit difficult to factor, if even possible, so we can use the quadratic formula:

[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

In this case, a = 1, b = -15, and c = -8316. Thus:

[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{-(-15)\pm\sqrt{(-15)^2-4(1)(-8316)}}{2(1)}[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{15\pm\sqrt{33489}}{2}[/tex]

Evaluate:

[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{15\pm183}{2}[/tex]

Therefore, our solutions are:

[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{15+183}{2}=99\text{ and } x=\frac{15-183}{2}=-84[/tex]

We cannot produce negative items, so we can ignore the second answer.

Therefore, for a cost of $8350, 99 items are being produced.

2y-4x=-10 is an answer
If you simplify this, you will get y=2x-5 which would represent that this line is parallel to the one above.

The pair of equations creates an inconsistent system will be y = 2x + 5 and 2y - 4x = -10. Then the correct option is D.

What is a linear equation?

The linear equation is given as,

y = mx + c

Where m is the slope of the line and c is the y-intercept of the line.

If the slopes are equal but have different intercepts then the lines are parallel, then the system has no solution or is inconsistent.

The equation is given as,

y = 2x + 5

Check option D, then we have

2y - 4x = -10

y - 2x = - 5

y = 2x - 5

The slope of the lines is the same but with different intercepts.

Thus, the correct option is D.

A pair of sunglasses is priced $15. If they are on sale for 30% off, what is the sale price?

Answers

Answer:

12 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

This means the cost of the item to you is $12. You will pay $12 for a item with original price of $15 when discounted 20%. In this example, if you buy an item at $15 with 20% discount, you will pay 15 - 3 = 12 dollars.

Answer:

$4.50

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that there are sunglasses has a price of fifteen dollars.

We also know that said glasses are on sale for 30% off.

We need to find the sale price of these sunglasses.

When you need to find a certain sale price for an item, you need to multiply the original price by the percent it's on sale for.

[tex]OGprice * percent -off[/tex]

[tex]15*30[/tex]%

[tex]4.5[/tex]

Therefore, the sale price is 4 dollars and 50 cents.

--> to solve for x, just multiply by 117

x = 110 * 117 / 143 = 90 mg

  ∆BCR ≅ ∆BAR

  x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

For congruence, define point R where the altitude line meets segment AC.

The diagram shows you AR ≅ RC. You know BR ≅ BR by the reflexive property, and you know that ∠BRC ≅ ∠BRA = 90°. You can therefore claim ...

  ∆BCR ≅ ∆BAR . . . . by the SAS congruence postulate

__

To solve for x, you don't need to show congruence of the right triangles. You only need to realize that the markings on segment AC show the left half is the same length (x) as the right half. The Pythagorean theorem is used to find x.

  x² +8² = 10²

  x² = 100 -64 = 36

  x = √36 = 6

The length of x is 6 units.

As you can see here, an altitude that is a median divides the isosceles triangle into two congruent right triangles. (That altitude also bisects angle B.)

From the isosceles triangle shown, we can see that it is made up of two right angled triangle.

Using the Pythagoras theorem to solve for the adjacent side of both right angled triangles we will have;

From the formula:

Adj² = Hyp² - Opp²

The hypotenuse and the opposite of both triangle is equal. Hence their adjacent side will also be equal.

Given Hypotenuse = √74

Opposite = 7

Adj² = Hyp²-Opp²

Adj² = (√74)² - 7²

Adj² = 74-49

Adj² = 25

Adj = √25

Fill in the blanks to complete the sentences below. (a) As the number of samples​ increases, the proportion of​ 95% confidence intervals that include the population proportion approaches​ ______. (b) If a​ 95% confidence interval results in a sample proportion that does not include the population​ proportion, then the sample proportion is more than​ ______ standard errors from the population proportion. ​(This is a reading assessment question. Be certain of your answer because you only get one attempt on this​ question.)

Answers

Answer:

a) the proportion of​ 95% confidence intervals that include the population proportion approaches 0.95

b) Sample proportion does not include the population proportion then the sample proportion is more than 1.96 standard error from the population proportion

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

Given the the data in the question, confidence level is 95%.

In this case as the number of samples increases, the proportion of 95% confidence intervals that include the population proportion approaches 0.95. hence the expected value of the proportion.

b)

Given the the data in the question, confidence level is 95% and sample proportion

we know that In normal distribution 68% confidence indicate one standard deviation, 95% confidence indicate 2 standard deviation while 99.97% confidence indicate 3 standard deviation.

The sample proportion does not include the population proportion, in 95% confidence from the standard normal table 0.95 value lies within the critical value of 1.96 approximately 2.

hence ( z =2 ) that satisfied the 1.96 standard error from the population proportion

hence, Sample proportion does not include the population proportion then the sample proportion is more than 1.96 standard error from the population proportion

Using confidence interval concepts, it is found that:

a) As the number of samples​ increases, the proportion of​ 95% confidence intervals that include the population proportion approaches​ 95%.

b) If a​ 95% confidence interval results in a sample proportion that does not include the population​ proportion, then the sample proportion is more than​ 2 standard errors from the population proportion.

Item a:

For a x% confidence interval, approximately x% of confidence intervals will include the population proportion, and this percentage approaches x as the number of intervals increase, hence, the correct sentence is:

As the number of samples​ increases, the proportion of​ 95% confidence intervals that include the population proportion approaches​ 95%.

Item b:

By the Empirical Rule, 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean, hence, the correct sentence is:

If a​ 95% confidence interval results in a sample proportion that does not include the population​ proportion, then the sample proportion is more than​ 2 standard errors from the population proportion.

The average weekly salary of two employees is $5250. One makes $500 more than the other. Find their salaries.

Answers

Answer: thier salaries are $5000 and $5500

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the average weekly salary of one employee be =x

And that of the other employee be = x+500

Such that if thier average of their salaries= $5250

So, their total salary=  $5250 x 2=10,500

The  equation  to solve each employee salary becomes

x+x+500=10,500

2x+500=10,500

2x=10,500-500

2x=10,000

x=10,000 /2

x= first employee salary =$5000

second employee =   x+500 =$5500
