Answer:

The percent decrease in the number of cheese sticks you can buy for $1 is 80%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Cheese sticks that were previously priced at "10 for $1" are now "2 for $1".

To find : The percent decrease in the number of cheese sticks you can buy for $1 ?

Solution :

The formula used to find percent decrease is given by,

\%\text{ change}=\frac{\text{Amount of change}}{\text{Original amount }}\times 100

The price change from 10 to 2,

\%\text{ change}=\frac{10-2}{10}\times 100

\%\text{ change}=\frac{8}{10}\times 100

\%\text{ change}=80\%

The percent decrease in the number of cheese sticks you can buy for $1 is 80%.

The heights (in cm) and arm spans (in cm) of 31 students were measured. The association between x(height) and y(arm span) is sho
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

27.385 cm longer would we expect Mike's arm span to be than George's.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find how many centimeters longer would we expect Mike's arm span to be than George's using the equation:

y= 4.5x + 0.977 x

where y= arm span

and x= height

Given:

Mike's height=x = 175 cm

so Mike's arm span= y= 4.5 x + 0.977 x

                                    = 4.5* (175) + 0.977* (175)

                                    = 787.5 + 170.975

                                    = 958.475 cm

George's height = x = 170 cm

so George's arm span= y= 4.5 x + 0.977 x

                                    = 4.5* (170) + 0.977* (170)

                                    = 765 + 166.09

                                    = 931.09 cm

Mike's arm span longer than George's = Mike's arm span - George's arm span

                                                                 = 958.475 - 931.09

                                                                 = 27.385 cm.

Which graph shows a set of ordered pairs that represents a function?
bonufazy [111]

There is a rule for functions:

One input(x-value) can only have one output(y-value).

If one input has more than one output, it is not a function.

(This doesn't apply to outputs, one output can have more than one input and still be a function)

This graph shows a set of ordered pairs that does NOT represent a function because there are two points on x = -3. The input -3 has more than one output of -4 and 4, so it is not a function.

Mrs. Adams deposited $12,000 into an account that earns an annual simple interest rate of 3.25%. She makes no other deposits or
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

<em>Mrs. Adams will earn $3,120 of interest at the end of year 8.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Simple Interest</u>

In simple interest, the money earns interest at a fixed rate, assuming no new money is coming in or out of the account.

We can calculate the interests earned by an investment of value A in a period of time t, at an interest rate r with the formula:

I=A.r.t

Mrs. Adams deposited an amount of A=$12,000 into an account that earns an annual simple interest rate of r=3.25%. We must find the interest earned in t=8 years. The interest rate is converted to decimal as:

r=3.25/100=0.0325

The interest is then calculated:

I=12,000\cdot 0.0325\cdot 8=3,120

Mrs. Adams will earn $3,120 of interest at the end of year 8.

Suppose Primo Pizza's profit on a given day is always the same as the profit of Pizza Supreme's profit 3 days later. Write a fun
Andru [333]

Complete Question

Each summer Primo Pizza and Pizza Supreme compete to see who has the larger summer profit.

Let p(x) represent Primo Pizza's profit (in dollars) x days after June 1. Let s(x) represent Pizza Supreme's profit (in dollars) x days after June 1.

Suppose Primo Pizza's profit each day is 1.9 times as large as the profit of Pizza Supreme.

Write a function formula for p using the function s

Answer:

The function formula for p using the function s is p(x) = 1.9s(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

p(x) = Primo Pizza's profit (in dollars) x days after June 1.

s(x) = Pizza Supreme's profit (in dollars) x days after June 1.

It is given that Primo Pizza's profit each day is 1.9 times as large as the profit of Pizza Supreme.

This implies that

p(x) = 1.9*s(x)

So, p(x) = 1.9s(x)

Hence, the function formula for p using the function s is p(x) = 1.9s(x)
