Lena bought it on sale for 60% off the regular price. How much did Lena pay?
The regular price of an item is $65
Lena bought it on sale for 60% off the regular price.
Then it means that she paid only (100% - 60% = 40%) of the price.
Let us find the 40% of $65
[tex]\frac{40}{100}\times\$65=\$26[/tex]Therefore, Lena paid only $26 for the item.

If 340 grams of a substance are present initially and 50 years later only 170 grams remain, how much of the substance will be present after 120 years?Round to the nearest tenth of a graim.grams
Given -
Substance present initially = 340 grams
Substance present 50 years later = 170 grams
To Find -
How much of the substance will be present after 120 years =?
Step-by-Step Explanation -
Since the substance was reduced to half of what it is initially in 50 years.
So,
The half-life time of the substance = 50 Years.
It means that every 50 years, the substance will reduce to half of its quantity.
And, we know the formula:
[tex]\text{ A = S\lparen}\frac{1}{2}\text{\rparen}^{\frac{t}{h}}[/tex]Where,
A = the remaining amount of Substance =?
S = the amount of Substance you start with = 340grams
t = the amount of time in years = 120 years
h = the half-life time = 50 years
Simply putting the values, we get:
[tex]\begin{gathered} A\text{ = 340}\times(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{120}{50}} \\ \\ A\text{ = 17\lparen}\frac{1}{2}\text{\rparen}^{2.4} \\ \\ A\text{ = 17}\times(0.5)^{2.4} \\ \\ A\text{ = 17}\times0.1894 \\ \\ A\text{ = 3.22 gram} \end{gathered}[/tex]Final Answer -
The substance that will remain after 120 years = 3.22 gram

What are domain restrictions?A domain restriction is a prescription or criterion that limits the range of possible values for a function. A domain in mathematics is the collection of all values for which a function produces a result. Domain constraints allow us to create functions defined over numbers that meet our needs.Functions defined in pieces are made up of various functions with distinct domain restrictions. Some functions are not allowed to accept values that would make them undefined.How to find the domain restrictions?
The numbers that makes the denominators zero and the entire expression infinite or undefined are the domain restrictions.
Consider the denominators,
[tex]x^{2}[/tex] - 25 ≠ 0 --(1)

B) y= -1/2x -4
1) Let's start by picking two points from that line: (0,3) and (-2,-1). Now we can plug them into the slope formula and find out the slope of that line:
[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\Rightarrow m=\frac{-1-3}{-2-0}=\frac{-4}{-2}=2[/tex]2) Examining that graph we can see that when x=0 y=3, so the linear coefficient b is 3. Therefore we can write the equation as y= 2x-3.
2.2) Since the question wants a perpendicular line, then the slope of this perpendicular line must be reciprocal and opposite to m=2, so:
[tex]m\perp=-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]So, plugging the given point (6,-7) we can find out the linear coefficient of that perpendicular line:
y=mx +b
-7 = 6(-1/2) +b
-7 =-3 +b
-7+3 = b
b=-4
3) Hence, the answer is y= -1/2x -4
At an all-you-can-eat barbeque fundraiser, adults pay $6 for a dinner and children pay $4 for a dinner. 212 people attend and you raise $1,128. What is the total number of adults and the total number of children attending? A)140 adults and 72 children B)72 adults and 140 children C)142 adults and 70 children D)70 adults and 142 children
A)140 adults and 72 children
Explanation
Step 1
Let x represents the number of childrend attending
Let y represents the number of adults attending
then
total cost for the children=4x
total cost for the adults=6y
if you raise 1128,
[tex]4x+6y=1128\text{ Equation(1)}[/tex]Now, 212 people attend,Hence
[tex]x+y=\text{212 Equation(2)}[/tex]Step 2
solve for x and y
a)isolate x in equation (2), then replace in equation (1)
[tex]\begin{gathered} x+y=212 \\ x=212-y \\ \text{now, replace} \\ 4x+6y=1128 \\ 4(212-y)+6y=1128 \\ 848-4y+6y=1128 \\ 2y+848=1128 \\ \text{subtract 848 in both sides} \\ 2y+848-848=1128-848 \\ 2y=280 \\ d\text{ivide boths ides by 2} \\ \frac{2y}{2}=\frac{280}{2} \\ y=140 \end{gathered}[/tex]it means 140 adults are attending
b)replace y=140 in equatin (2) to find x
[tex]\begin{gathered} x+y=212 \\ x+140=212 \\ \text{subtract 140 in both sides} \\ x+140-140=212-140 \\ x=72 \end{gathered}[/tex]so, the number of children is 72 and 72 children

Find the coordinates P (-9, 10.5) after translating it 3 units left and 11 units up.
ANSWER
P'(-12, 21.5)
EXPLANATION
We are given the cordinates of P as:
P(-9, 10.5)
Cordinate points are given as A(x, y)
We want to translate it 3 units left and 11 units up.
That means that we are moving it 3 units towards the negative side of the x axis and 11 units towards the positive side of the y axis.
Therefore, we will subtract 3 from the x cordinate and add 11 to the y cordinate.
Therefore, the translation is:
P(-9, 10.5) => P'(-9 - 3, 10.5 + 11)
=> P'(-12, 21.5)
The cordinates of P have been translated.

The margin of error of a z-confidence interval is given by: [tex]$M=z \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$$[/tex]
The margin of error of a z-confidence interval is 142.945936.
How to estimate the margin of error?The margin of error of a z-confidence interval exists given by:
[tex]$M=z \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$$[/tex]
Where, z is the critical value.
[tex]$\sigma$[/tex] be the population standard deviation.
n is the sample size.
The first step is finding the critical value, which exists z with a p-value of [tex]$\frac{1+\alpha}{2}$[/tex] in which [tex]$\alpha$[/tex] is the confidence level.
In this problem, [tex]$\alpha[/tex] = 0.95, therefore, z with a p-value of 1 + 0.95 / 2 = 0.975, which means that it is z = 1.96.
The population standard deviation exists of 12.2 meters, thus [tex]$\sigma[/tex] = 12.2.
We want a width of 5 , thus a margin of error of M = 2. Therefore, we have to simplify the equation for the margin of error for n.
Let the equation be [tex]$M=z \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$$[/tex]
substitute the values in the above equation, we get
[tex]$2=1.96 \frac{12.2}{\sqrt{n}}$[/tex]
[tex]$2 \sqrt{n}=1.96(12.2)$[/tex]
simplifying the above equation, we get
[tex]$\sqrt{n}=\frac{1.96(12.2)}{2}$[/tex]
[tex]$(\sqrt{n})^2=\left(\frac{1.96(12.2)}{2}\right)^2$[/tex]
n = 142.945936
Therefore, the value of n = 142.945936.

The amount of extra money a month that Mrs. Laurence pays in her car payment is $72.
How much more money does Mrs. Laurence pay each month?We can get the amount of extra amount that Mrs. Laurence pays each month when compared to Mr. Gannon by dividing the amount that they pay by the number of months they need to make these payments.
This can be done as follows:
26304 ÷ 24 = 1096
20480 ÷ 20 = 1024
1096 - 1024 - 72

The probability that a randomly selected subject tested negative or did not use marijuana is.
(Do not round until the final answer. Then round to three decimal places as needed.)
The probability that the subject tested negative or did not use marijuana is 145/293.
What is probability?
Potential is described by probability. This branch of mathematics deals with the occurrence of a random event. The value's range is 0 to 1. Probability has been applied into mathematics to predict the likelihood of different events. Probability generally refers to the degree to which something is likely to occur. This fundamental theory of probability, which also applies to the probability distribution, can help you comprehend the possible outcomes for a random experiment. Before we can determine the probability that a certain event will occur, we must first know the total number of outcomes.
As given in the question,
Total positive results are 143 out of which 24 are false, and
total negative results are 150 out of which 5 are false.
We know that,
probability = favorable outcome/ Total outcome
so,
Total outcome = total tests
total tests = 143 + 150
total outcome = 293
and favorable outcome = true negative outcome
true negative outcome = total negative outcome - false negative outcome
true negative outcome = 150 - 5
favorable outcome = 145
Therefore, the probability is equal to 143/293
