1. Larry is in the market for a new lawn mower. He has found two on sale. The first lawn
mower is $275 with a 20 percent discount but must be assembled. The second lawn
mower is $299 with a 25 percent discount and is already assembled. Which of the
following describes the best decision for Larry?

Answers

Answer 1

The option that describes the best decision for Larry is Larry buys the second lawn mower because he thinks the extra $5 are worth not having to do the assembly.

How much does Larry spend?

The cost of the first lawnmower after the discount is:

= 275 x (1 - 20%)

= 275 x 0.80

= $220

The cost of the second lawnmower is:

= 299 x 0.75

= $224.25

The difference between the lawnmowers is around $5. This $5 is the cost of the assembly on the second lawnmower and Larry might decide that this cost is worth it.

Options for this question include:

Larry buys the second lawn mower because he thinks the extra $5 are worth not having to do the assembly.Larry buys the second lawn mower because it is cheaper due to the better sale, and he doesn't want to assemble a lawn mower.Larry buys the first lawn mower because he likes the way it looks.Larry buys the first lawn mower because it is significantly cheaper.Larry buys the first lawn mower because he can take the day off of work to build it and will save

Answer:

[tex]-\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that:

[tex]a^2-2ab+b^2=(a-b)^2 = 4ab \\ \\ a^2 + 2ab+b^2 = (a+b)^2 = 8ab \\ \\ \implies \frac{a+b}{a-b}=\frac{\sqrt{8ab}}{-\sqrt{4ab}}=-\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]\sf \dfrac{a+b}{a-b}= -\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\sf a^2 + b^2 = 6ab \qquad where\:\:0 < a < b[/tex]

Basic formula:

[tex]\sf (a + b)^2 = a^2 +b^2 +2ab[/tex]

[tex]\sf (a - b)^2 = a^2 + b^2 -2ab[/tex]

solve for a + b

[tex]\sf \rightarrow a^2 + b^2 = 6ab[/tex]

[tex]\sf \rightarrow (a+b)^2-2ab = 6ab[/tex]

[tex]\sf \rightarrow (a+b)^2 = 6ab+2ab[/tex]

[tex]\sf \rightarrow (a+b)^2 = 8ab[/tex]

[tex]\sf \rightarrow a+b = \pm \sqrt{8ab}[/tex]

solve for a - b

[tex]\sf \rightarrow a^2 + b^2 = 6ab[/tex]

[tex]\sf \rightarrow (a-b)^2 + 2ab = 6ab[/tex]

[tex]\sf \rightarrow (a-b)^2 = 6ab-2ab[/tex]

[tex]\sf \rightarrow (a-b)^2 = 4ab[/tex]

[tex]\sf \rightarrow a-b = \pm \sqrt{4ab}[/tex]

Now solve for (a + b)/(a - b)

[tex]\sf \rightarrow \dfrac{a+b}{a-b}= \dfrac{\pm\sqrt{8ab} }{\pm\sqrt{4ab} }[/tex]

[tex]\sf \rightarrow \dfrac{a+b}{a-b}= \pm \sqrt\dfrac{8ab }{4ab}[/tex]

[tex]\sf \rightarrow \dfrac{a+b}{a-b}= \pm \sqrt{2}[/tex]

As, the value of b is greater than the value of a and both the values a  and b are greater than 0. It turns the value of expression negative as the denominator will be always evaluated to negative integer and the numerator value always > 0. So, the answer will be negative, -√2.

[tex]\sf \rightarrow \dfrac{a+b}{a-b}= - \sqrt{2}[/tex]

Answers

He finished the number of books by the time he arrived = 3.3 books, b) she withdrew $15 from her bank account. c) 6 people have nothing on their feet.d) He must wait before he can buy the pair of shoes = 20 minutes. e) After dividing the bank gives him 700 nickels = $35. f) She spent more money on lunch than breakfast  = $3. g) After eating the mirage slices left = 6 slices. h) He has more green highlighter than blue  = 3

a) professor finished  3 books by the time he arrived.

   Professor x traveled to see jean grey = 1500 miles

   He read one book he traveled = 450 miles

    So,

   He finished books by the time he arrived by dividing both the numbers = 1500/450

      He finished total books by the time he arrived = 3.3 books

     

b) Storm had money = $74

She bought a pair of slacks = $34

She bought two shirts = $16

She bought a pair of shoes = $24

After shopping she left with = $15

Storm expenses on the items = $34 + $16 + $24

                                              = $74

So, after shopping she left with $15 so it is clear that she withdrew $15 from her bank account.

c) Pacific northwest geocachers in wolverine’s living room = 12

Wearing shoes = 4

Wearing socks = 6

Wearing both socks and shoes = 4

As we know 4people wearing both socks and shoes

So, 2 people are wearing only sock

And no people wearing only shoes = 4-4=0

So, in total 4+2+0= 6

Now, 12 people are there

So, 12-6=6

So, 6 people have nothing on their feet.

d) Cyclops waited 20 minutes

Cyclops will buy a new pair of shoes = 1200 seconds

Here, 60 minutes = 3600 seconds

Now, divide 1200 seconds by a minute (1 minute = 60 sec)

 He must wait before he can buy the pair of shoes = 1200/60

  He must wait before he can buy the pair of shoes = 20 minutes

e) Quicksilver collected nickels in a jar  = 700

First, we have to calculate  how many cents are there in 700 nickels by multiplying 700 * 5, and then dividing that result by 100 cents

=700 nickels x 5 cents

= 3,500 cents   ( 100 cents = $1)

= 3,500 cents / 100 cents

The bank gives him 700 nickels = $35

f) For breakfast, Mystique bought a bagel = $1.55

A glass of orange juice = $2.25

At lunch,

On sandwich, she spent = $6.25

On a carton of milk, she spent = $0.55

Total spent on breakfast = $1.55+$2.25

                                       = $3.80

Total spent on lunch = $6.25+$0.55

                                = $6.80

She spent more money on lunch than breakfast =  $6.80-$3.80

She spent more money on lunch than breakfast  = $3

g) Mirage had 3 pizzas

Each pizza had = 8 slices

So, After multiplying total number of slice we have of the pizza = 3*8

                                                                          = 24 slices

He ate 75% of the pizza slices                         = 75/100 * 24

                                                                          = ¾ * 24

After multiplying,  he ate pizza slice                =   3 * 6

                                                = 18 slices

So, after eating by the mirage slices left = 24-18

                                                               = 6 slices

h) He has 3 more green highlighters than blue highlighters.

 In the iceman desk drawer, the number of  yellow highlighters are = 19

 As given, there are 15 more blue highlighters than yellow in his desk drawer

 Then,

 the number of blue highlighters  = 19+15

                                                           = 34

There are total numbers of green highlighters = 37

He has more green highlighters than blue highlighters = 37-34

                                                                                      = 3

What is an exponent?

Let a be the initial value and x be the power of the exponent function and b be the increasing factor.

The exponent is given as

y = a(b)ˣ

The dark city had a population of 350,000 in 1990 and has increased exponentially since then, to 475,000 in 2008. Then the equation will be

350,000 = a(b)      ...1

475,000 = a(b)¹⁸      ...2

From equations 1 and 2, then we have

475,000 / 350,000 = b¹⁷

b = 1.018

Then the value of the variable a will be

350,000 = 1.018a

a = 343768.87

PUNTOS Write the equation of the line parallel to y = -1/3x + 4 and passing through the point (-6, -9). Be sure to write your answer in slope-intercept form(y=mx+b)

Answers

The slope intercept of the line is y = -1/3x -11

Slope-intercept is one of the special forms of line equation

The slope intercept of a line can be found by solving the slope-intercept equation of a line which is parallel to that line.

Slope-intercept equation is

y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the intercept.

The slope-intercept equation of the parallel line is

y = -1/3x + 4

The slope will be the same for both lines as they were parallel to each other.

Thus m = -1/3

The point in which the line passes is given as (-6,-9)

So with these data, We can find the intercept of the line

y = mx + b

where m = -1/3 and (x,y) is (-6,-9),Thus

-9 = -1/3(-6) +b

-9 = 6/3 +b

-9 = 2 + b

b = -9-2

b = -11

Thus the intercept of the line passing through the point (-6,-9) is -11

Thus, the slope-intercept equation of the line we need to find is

y = -1/3x -11

Answers

Measurement is closest to the number of kilometers between these

two lighthouses is 219.2 kilometers.

Assume the distance between two lighthouses is x kilometers in 137 miles.

It knows there are approximately 8 kilometer in 5 miles.

Since the number of kilometers per mile is same

So    x:137=8:5

x/137=8/5

5x=1096

5x/5=1096/5

x=219.2

1 kilometer is equal to 0.621371 miles (often shortened to . 62). 1 mile is equal to 1.609344 kilometers. Thus, to convert kilometers to miles, simply multiply the number of kilometers by 0.62137.
