Jay bought a painting on sale for 45% off the original price, for $27. What was the price of the painting before the sale?

Answers

Answer:

 0.55x = $27

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of the painting = x

x - 45% of x = $27

    x - 0.45x = $27

         0.55x = $27

Divide both sides by 0.55

 0.55x/0.55 = $27/0.55

The Baltic Sea is almost completely surrounded by countries in Europe. The average depth of the Baltic Sea is 52 meters below the surface. The deepest point in the Baltic Sea is 407 meters lower than this. What is the deepest point in the Baltic Sea relative to the surface?

Answers

Answer:

The deepest point in the Baltic Sea relative to the surface is 459 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The average depth of the Baltic Sea is:

[tex] d_{1} = 52 m [/tex]

The deepest point in the Baltic Sea is (lower than this):

[tex] d_{2} = 407 m [/tex]

Hence, the deepest point in the Baltic Sea relative to the surface is given by:

[tex] d_{T} = d_{1} + d_{2} = 52 m + 407 m = 459 m [/tex]

Therefore, the deepest point in the Baltic Sea relative to the surface is 459 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ist method - Area of the triangle + Area of the  trapezium

Area of triangle = 1/2 × b × h

here, b = 8 cm but h is not given

so we will find h by pythagoras theorem

AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2

10^2 = 8^2 + BC^2

100 = 64 + BC^2

BC^2 = 36

BC = √36

BC = 6

∴ h = 6cm

area of triangle = 1/2 × b × h

= 1/2 × 8 × 6

= 24 cm^2

Area of trapezium = 1/2 ( a + b ) h

Here a = 13cm

         b = 25 - 8 = 17 cm

         h = 6 cm

So area = 1/2 ( a + b ) h

= 1/2 ( 13 + 17 ) 6

= 90 cm^2

So total area =  Area of the triangle + Area of the  trapezium

= 24 cm^2 + 90 cm^2 = 114 cm^2

2nd method - Area of the entire figure

Since the figure is a trapezium,

Area of trapezium = 1/2 ( a + b ) h

here, a = 13cm

        b = 25 cm

        h = 6 cm

Area of trapezium = 1/2 ( a + b ) h

= 1/2 ( 13 + 25 ) 6

= 114 cm^2

Hope this helps

Question 8 of 19
What is an equation that can be used to solve the proportion?
8/15 = x/6

A. 90x = 8
B. 15x = 48
C. 48x = 15
O D. 8x = 90

Answers

8/15 = x/6

Using cross multiplication let us find the value of x .

= 15 × x = 6 × 8

= 15x = 48

= x = 48 ÷ 15 ( transposing ×15 from LHS to RHS changes ×15 to ÷+5 )

= x = 3.2

Therefore , the equation that can be used to solve the proportion :-

#2: Tell whether the function below is linear or exponential.
y = 4 • 2^x


Answers

O Linear
O Exponential

Answers

Answer:

Exponential

Step-by-step explanation:

For this question you need to understand what is a linear function and what is an exponential function.

Linear function is a function where any variable x,y,z has the power of maximum 1 for example

x+y=1

7x+2y=10

1000x+9999y=40000

The numbers look too big but its the same category as linear function because all the variable in the equation are to the power of 1

Whereas, An exponential function is a mathematical function of the following form: [tex]y=a^x[/tex] where x is a variable, and a is a constant called the base of the function. Most commonly exponential functions are involved with mathematical symbol [tex]e[/tex].

So in your question [tex]y=4.2^x[/tex] where x the variable has become the power/degree the fucntion is an exponential function.

The equation of the line that passes through (-2,5) and (-4,-5) is y = 5x + 15 in the slope-intercept form of the line.

What is a linear equation?

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

If in the linear equation, one variable is present, then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.

It is given that:

The line that passes through (-2,5) and (-4,-5)

The equation of the line can be calculated as follows:

y + 5 = (-5 - 5)/(-4+2)[x + 4]

y + 5 = 10/2[ x + 4]

y = 5x + 20 - 5

y = 5x + 15

Thus, the equation of the line that passes through (-2,5) and (-4,-5) is y = 5x + 15 in the slope-intercept form of the line.

A fishing boat with two people on it runs out of gas while out in a bay. The people set off an emergency flare from a height of 2 meters above the water. The flare has an initial vertical velocity og 30 meters per second. How long does it take the flare to reach its maximum height? What is that height?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

time taken to reach the max height is expressed according to the projectile equation;

tmax = u/g

Given u = 30m/s

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81

t = 30/9.81

t = 3.0secs

hence it will take the flare 3.06secs to reach its maximum height.

Max height = u²/2g

Max height = 30²/2(9.81)

Max height = 900/19.62

Max height = 45.87m

If the people set off an emergency flare from a height of 2 meters above the water, the total height will be 45.87 + 2 = 47.87m
