The formula for percentage increase I (given as a decimal) of an investment is I=S−PP I = S − P P , where P P is the purchase price and S S is the sale price. You sell a stock at a price of $91, earning a percentage increase of 30%. What was the purchase price of the stock?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$130

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

I = (S − P) / P

where,

P = purchase price and

S = sale price.

What was the purchase price of the stock?

I = 30%

S = $91

I = (S − P)/P

30% = (91 - P) / P

0.3 = (91 - P) / P

Cross product

0.3P = 91 - P

0.3P + P = 91

0.7P = 91

P = 91 / 0.7

P = $130

1. Miss Firkin is selling her Nike Air Force Ones. She bought them online for $75.00, but they were too big for her and she's tripping all over herself (scuffing the tips). She needs to make some extra money to buy Halloween candy....She wants to mark up the sneakers 150%. What is she charging for them?

2. Miss Firkin went to Wal-Mart and iced cupcakes that were $12.99 a box had a sticker that said 30% off. How much is one box?
What did she pay for 3 boxes?

3. Now, what if the cupcakes are taxed as fast food items at a rate of 9%?

4. How much does she now spend on the 3 boxes?

5. Gas was $1.25 per gallon. Now it is $1.38 per gallon. What percent did it increase by? (really not that tricky)

Answers

1. I beleive it would be 187,5$, 75.00 + 150% = 187,5.

2. if rounding it would be 9.1$ she had to pay for one times 3 would be 27.3 for three boxes.

3. Not sure what this question is asking but I'll try my best so here: 27.3 +9% × 3 = 89.271 rounded would be 90$

4. 90$ if I did that correctly

5. 1.38 - 1.25 = 0.13 which I beleive would be 13%

0.13 as a percent woudl be 13%

Step-by-step explanation:

To distribute these two factors, use FOIL(First, Outer, Inner, Last) in this order.

(2x - 3)(x + 4) = 2x(x+4) - 3(x+4) = 2x^2 + 8x - 3x - 12 = 2x^2 + 5x - 12 .

It is hard to tell what sort of axioms or theorems you might have available to invoke for this proof. Here, we'll assume that you can use the fact that the sine function of acute angles maintains ordering:

  sin(a) > sin(b)  iff  a > b . . . . . where 0 ≤ a, b ≤ 90°

__

Draw altitude TX, where X lies on RS. The sine relation tells you ...

  TX/TS = sin(∠S)

  TX/TR = sin(∠R)

Dividing the second equation by the first, we have ...

  sin(∠R)/sin(∠S) = (TX/TR)/(TX/TS) = TS/TR

Given that ∠R > ∠S, we know sin(∠R) > sin(∠S), so we have ...

  sin(∠R)/sin(∠S) = TS/TR > 1

At Yvonne's auto dealing, car washes cost $5 for any time up to 10 minutes, plus $ .40 per minute after that. The managers at Yvonne's are trying to agree on a formula for calculating the cost c for a t-minute car wash. Sid thinks c = 0.4t + 5 is correct. Is he correct?

Answers

Answer:

He is incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, given the charge at the auto dealing, we want to know if the formula the managers came up with is correct

The base fee is $5 for 10 minutes or less

Now for any extra minute after the tenth, $0.5 will be paid

So for a t-minute wash, the amount to be paid will be;

C = $5 + 0.4( t- 10) = 5 + 0.4t - 4 = 1 + 0.4t

If t < 10 , C = $5

If t > 10, C = 1 + 0.4t

Sid is incorrect

f(x) = 3.50x -110

Profit (dollars)
Pounds of
Tomatoes Sold

40

Answers

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Stephanie's profit relationship:

f(x) = 3.50x - 110

Bryson's Tomato Sales, using the pairs of numbers let's find the relationship.

(10, -97.50) and (20, -55.00)

Since it is also linear relationship, we'll find a slope and y-intercept:

m = (-55 - (-97.50))/(20 - 10) = 42.50/10 = 4.25

y-intercept is:

-97.50 = 4.25*10 + b ⇒ b = -97.50 - 42.50 = - 140

So the function is:

g(x) = 4.25x - 140

Comparing the functions:

f(x) = 3.50 - 110g(x) = 4.25 - 140

The slope of g(x) is greater than f(x) but the y-intercept is smaller

It translates as:

Bryson sells tomatoes at greater price: 4.25 vs 3.50 per poundStephanie  needs to sell 110/3.5 = 31.4 pounds of tomatoes before making any profitBryson needs to sell 140/4.25 = 32.9 pounds of tomatoes before making any profit

The value of a car decreases by about 15% in the first year. How much will a car be worth after one year if its initial value was 1000? 5000? 5020? X dollars?

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Decrease in value= 15%

To calculate the value after one year, we need to use the following formula:

New value= current value/1.15

For $1,000:

New value= 1,000/1.15= $869.57

For $5,000:

New value= 5,000/1.15= $4,347.83

For $5,020:

New value= 5,020/1.15= $4,465.22

Question

Seat belt use in a state was estimated at 89%,

which means 89 % of people use their seat belts. Suppose two independent drivers have been randomly selected.

a. What is the probability that both of them are using a​seatbelt?

b. What is the probability that neither of them is using a​seatbelt?

c. What is the probability that at least one is using a​seatbelt?

The probability that both of them are using a seatbelt is ?

Answer:

a

[tex]P(B) = 0.7921[/tex]

b

[tex]P(B)' = 0.0121[/tex]

c

[tex]P(K) = 0.9879[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The proportion of seat belt use is  p =  0.89

     The  sample  size n =  2

Generally the probability that both drivers are wearing seat belt is mathematically represented as

       [tex]P(B) = (p)^n[/tex]

=>     [tex]P(B) = (0.89 )^2[/tex]

=>     [tex]P(B) = 0.7921[/tex]

Generally the probability that neither of the two drivers are wearing seat belt is  

      [tex]P(B)' = (1 - p)^2[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(B)' = (1 - 0.89)^2[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(B)' = 0.0121[/tex]

Generally the probability that at least one of the drivers is wearing a seat belt is  

        [tex]P(K) = 1 - P(B)'[/tex]

=>     [tex]P(K) = 1 - 0.0121[/tex]

=>     [tex]P(K) = 0.9879[/tex]

These may be cartographic models designed to document the co-occurrence or interrelationship of multiple data layers or they may be hypothetical research models designed to mimic natural ecological systems. Similarly, modeling with GIS can be used to predict the impacts that one set of parameters will have on another. For example, wetlands, soils, hydrography, climatology and elevation data can be combined to model flooding within a river system.
