Karen saw a laptop for sale in 2004.
In March 2005, the price of this laptop was reduced 20%.
In June 2005, the price of this laptop was reduced by one sixth of the March 2005 price.

Compared with the 2004 price, what percentage discount would Karen obtain by buying this laptop in June 2005?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the initial price in March 2004.  

Let X'  be the price for March 2005.

Let X" be the price for June 2005.

March 2005:  The price was reduced by 20%.  Thus, X' = 0.8X

June 2005:  The price was reduced by 1/6 of the March 2005 price:  Thus,

    X" = X' - (1/6)X'

Substituting, we have X" = (0.8X) - (1/6)(0.8X)

X" = (0.8X) - (1/6)(0.8X)

X" = (0.8X) - (0.1333X)

X" = 0.6667X

The June 2005 price is 0.6667 of the 2004 price.  That's a (1-0.6667) or 33.33% reduction.

The ratio of the sides of two similar hexagons is 3:4. If the area of the smaller hexagon is 36 cm2, what is the area of the larger hexagon? (A
hexagon has 6 sides)

Answers

Answer:

64 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 2 similar figures with ratio of sides = a : b , then

ratio of areas = a² : b²

Here ratio of sides = 3 : 4

ratio of areas = 3² : 4² = 9 : 16

let x be the area of the larger hexagon then by proportion

[tex]\frac{9}{16}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{36}{x}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

9x = 16 × 36 = 576 ( divide both sides by 9 )

x = 64

Suppose that Juan can choose to get home from work by car or bus.




When he chooses to get home by car, he arrives home after 7 p.m. 14 percent of the time.

When he chooses to get home by bus, he arrives home after 7 p.m. 62 percent of the time.

Because the bus is cheaper, he uses the bus 83 percent of the time.



What is the approximate probability that Juan chose to get home from work by bus, given that he arrived home after 7 p.m.?

Answers

Using conditional probability, it is found that there is a 0.9556 = 95.56% probability that Juan chose to get home from work by bus, given that he arrived home after 7 p.m.

Conditional Probability

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened. [tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening. P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this problem:

Event A: Arrived home after 7 p.m.Event B: Got home by bus.

The percentages associated with arriving home after 7 p.m. are:

14% of 17%(by car).62% of 83%(by bus).

Hence:

[tex]P(A) = 0.14(0.17) + 0.62(0.83) = 0.5384[/tex]

The probability of both arriving home after 7 p.m. and using bus is:

[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.62(0.83)[/tex]

Hence, the conditional probability is:

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.62(0.83)}{0.5384} = 0.9556[/tex]

0.9556 = 95.56% probability that Juan chose to get home from work by bus, given that he arrived home after 7 p.m.

The figure below shows a circular fountain in a park with a garden to be planted with flowers. The parks department wants to plant groups of 2 flowers in the garden per square foot. Garden 3 feet 18 feet Fountain Which is closest to the number of flowers needed to plant in the garden?
A 71 flowers
B. 141 flowers
C 156 flowers
D 255 flowers
E 284 flowers ​

Answers

Answer:  The answer is 284.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the garden is an annulus whose,  

Outer diameter = 18 ft  

Inner diameter = 18 ft - 2*3ft = 12 ft

Therefore,  

Outer radius = 18/2 = 9 ft  

Inner radius = 12/2 = 6 ft  

 Area of garden = Area of annulus  

 Area of garden = π*(9 ft)2 - π * (6 ft)2

 Area of garden = 142  

 Given:  

2 flowers are planted per square foot.  

 Therefore for 142 ft2,  

Number of flowers required = 2*142 = 284  

 The answer is 284.

In a factory, 53 workers receive a wage of 7,576 each per month. Find the total wages received by all the workers for one financial year. Also, find the annual wage of 1 worker.​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

as you know, there are 12 months per year.

also, the word "annual" means "per year" (of again 12 months).

each worker gets 7,576 per month.

that means each worker gets an annual salary of

7,576 × 12 = 90,912

the salaries/wages of all 53 workers together in a year are then

90,912 × 53 = 4,818,336

? Steve has 7 biscuits in a tin. There are 3 digestive and 4 chocolate biscuits. Steve takes two biscuits at random from the tin. Work out the probability that he chooses two different types of biscuits.​

Answers

Using the hypergeometric distribution, it is found that there is a 0.5714 = 57.14% probability that he chooses two different types of biscuits.​

What is the hypergeometric distribution formula?

The formula is:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

The parameters are:

x is the number of successes.N is the size of the population.n is the size of the sample.k is the total number of desired outcomes.

In this problem, the values of the parameters are given as follows:

N = 7, k = 3, n = 2.

The probability that he chooses two different types of biscuits is P(X = 1), hence:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = h(1,7,2,3) = \frac{C_{3,1}C_{4,1}}{C_{7,2}} = 0.5714[/tex]

4800 persons run a marathon, 1200 reach the finish line. What is the percent of people reach the finish line at the marathon?

Answers

Answer: 25%

Step-by-step explanation: So first make the number of people who ran the marathon and the number of people who finished the marathon into a ratio

1200:4800

then make that into a fraction, 1200/4800

then make the percent of people who reached the marathon into a fraction, using 100 as the denominator and a variable as the numerator.

for example. p/100 (p, represents the percent)

then cross multiply.

1200x100=1200000

Last divide 1200000 by 4800 to get 25%.
