On Tuesday, Bob brought home an oriental carpet on approval. The price in the store was 9900 Turkish Lira, but Bob was going to pay in dollars. On Tuesday, one dollar was worth 4.5 Turkish Lira. On Wednesday, the Turkish Lira was devalued such that one dollar was now worth 6.5 Turkish Lira. Feeling lucky by this change, Bob then bought the rug on Wednesday, paying the price of 9900 Turkish Lira with dollars at the new rate. To the nearest dollar, how much did he save due to the devaluation?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Rounded to the nearest dollar, Bob saved $677 by buying the carpet on Wednesday.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since on Tuesday, Bob brought home an oriental carpet on approval and the price in the store was 9900 Turkish Lira, but Bob was going to pay in dollars and, on Tuesday, one dollar was worth 4.5 Turkish Lira but on Wednesday, the Turkish Lira was devalued such that one dollar was now worth 6.5 Turkish Lira, with which Bob then bought the rug on Wednesday, paying the price of 9900 Turkish Lira with dollars at the new rate, to determine to the nearest dollar, how much did he save due to the devaluation the following calculation must be performed:

(9,900 / 4.5) - (9,900 / 6.5) = X

2,200 - 1,523.07 = X

676.92 = X

So, rounded to the nearest dollar, Bob saved $ 677 by buying the carpet on Wednesday.

Answers

Answer:

f = 2 1/4c

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of cups of flour is proportional to the number of cakes

Number of cups of flour = f

Number of cakes = c

Therefore,

f = k * c

Where,

k = constant of proportionality

Number of cups of flour = 22 1/2 cups

Number of cakes = 10 cakes

f = k * c

22 1/2 = k * 10

45/2 = 10k

k = 45/2 ÷ 10

= 45/2 × 1/10

= (45*1) / (2*10)

= 45/20

= 2 5/20

k = 2 1/4

The equation is

f = k * c

f = 2 1/4 * c

f = 2 1/4c

30. From 55 lb to 24 lb

Answers

Answer:

Decease in weight by 56.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

From 55 lb to 24 lb,

There is a decrease in the weight from 55 lb to 24 lb.

For the percentage decrease in weight,

Change in weight = 55 - 24

                              = 31 lb

Percentage change in weight = [tex]\frac{\text{Total change}}{\text{Initial value}}\times 100[/tex]

                                                  = [tex]\frac{31}{55}\times 100[/tex]

                                                  = 56.36%

                                                  ≈ 56.4%

Therefore, there is a decease in weight by 56.4%.

i am thinking of a number. i will add four and then multiply it by five. the answer will be thirty five. whats the number?

A-2
B-3
C-4
D-5​

Answers

Answer:

B. 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's make an equation for this. Our unknown number is x.

x

We are adding 4.

x + 4

Then multiplying by 5.

(x + 4) • 5

It will equal 35.

(x + 4) • 5 = 35

To solve this, divide both sides by 5.

(x + 4) = 7

Now subtract 4 from both sides.

x = 3

This is your answer.

Check this by plugging it back into our original equation.

(x + 4) • 5 = 35

(3 + 4) • 5 = 35

7 • 5 = 35

35 = 35

Your answer is correct.

Hope this helps!

A life guard is sitting on a platform, looking down at a swimmer in the water. If the lifeguards line of sight is 8 feet above the ground and the angle of depression is 18 degrees, how far away is the swimmer from the lifeguard? Round to the nearest tenth

Answers

Answer: The swimmer is 26 ft (approximately) away from the lifeguard

Step-by-step explanation: Please refer you the attached diagram.

The lifeguard sitting on the platform is labeled as point P, and the swimmer down below is at point S. The point G is the point directly beneath the lifeguard. So, we have a right angled triangle PSG. Also the angle of depression is 18 degrees, so the angle of sight between the lifeguard and the ground is 72 degrees (that is, 90 - 18 = 72).

Having derived a right angled triangle with two sides and a reference angle, we can now use the trigonometric ratio which is;

CosP = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

The adjacent is the side that lies between the reference angle and the right angle (side PG), while the hypotenuse is the side facing the right angle (side PS). Hence;

Cos72 = 8/g

By cross multiplication we now have

g = 8/Cos72

g = 8/0.3090

g = 25.8899

Approximately, g = 26 ft.

please would you be so kind and help me with problems four through 12?

Answers

I will do 4 and 5 only. Also, post one problem at a time.

Question 4

Measure of arc GJ = measure of the central angle, which in this case is 90 degrees. So, the measure of arc GJ = 90°.

Question 5

The measure of diameter HJ = 180 degrees.

We need to find the adjacent angle which I will call angle x.

So, x = 180° - 151° = 29 degrees.

Just like Question 4 above, the measure of 29 degrees is the central angle for arc HI.

As you know, HI = the measure of the central angle. So, the measure of arc HI = 29°.

Try the rest on your own.

As you do the rest, keep in mind that the measure of a circle in terms of degrees is 360 degrees. This will help you do the rest of the questions for circle B.

sophie was 28 years old when her daughter nichole was born. In how many years will sophie be two years less than 6 times nicholes age?

Answers

Sophie will be 6 years old. Nichole will be 6+28 = 34

It will take 6 years for that to happen. 

You can find this by setting Nichole's age as x and Sophie's age as x + 28 since she will always be 28 years older. 

Now we are looking for a time that Sophie's age is equal to 2 less than 6 times Nichole's age. So we can set up the below equation. 

6(x) - 2 = x + 28

6x - 2 = x + 28

5x - 2 = 28

5x = 30

x = 6

Answers

Answer: sqrt(61)

Step-by-step explanation:

For parts a) and c1), refer to the attached picture.

For part b), the distance formula is:

d = sqrt[(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2]

Using x1 = -1, y1 = -4, x2 = -6, y2 = 2:

d = sqrt[(-6 + 1)^2 + (2 + 4)^2] = sqrt[25 + 36] = sqrt(61)

Part c2) Another way to find the length of AB without using the distance formula is by drawing the line and measuring it according to the scale.

Part d) This will only work as long as the graph paper is accurately made, and the scale computation is done correctly. However, this will only give approximations, and will not give an exact answer when radicals are involved.
