The price of marked up candy is $6.00

perentage of mark up is 300%

let the marked up amount be represented as x

let 300% mark up be represented as 3x

the equatiopn for finding the price before markup

can be represented as 3x-x=$6.

2x=$6

x=$3.

The equation y 4.9t 2 3.5t 2.4 relates the height y in meters to the elapsed time t in seconds for a ball thrown downward at 3.5

tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

$t \approx 0.43\,s$

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertical displacement function is $y(t) = -4.9\cdot t^{2}-3.5\cdot t + 2.4$ , where $y(t)$ is measured in meters and $t$ in seconds. Ball hits the ground when $y(t) = 0$ . That is:

$-4.9\cdot t^{2}-3.5\cdot t + 2.4 = 0$

Whose roots can be found by using the General Formula for Second-Order Polynomials:

$t_{1,2} = \frac{3.5\pm \sqrt{(-3.5)^{2}-4\cdot (-4.9)\cdot (2.4)} }{2\cdot (-4.9)}$

Solutions of this polynomial are:

$t_{1} \approx 0.43\,s,t_{2} \approx -1.14\,s$

Only the first root is physically consistent.

For the level 3 course, exam hours cost twice as much as workshop hours, workshop hours cost twice as much as lecture hours. How

natulia [17]

<h2>Answer</h2>

Cost of lectures = $7.33 per hour

<h2>Explanation</h2>

Let $e$ the cost of the exam hours

Let $w$ be the cost of the workshop hours

Let $l$ be the cost of the lecture hours.

We know from our problem that exam hours cost twice as much as workshop, so:

$e=2w$ equation (1)

We also know that workshop hours cost twice as much as lecture hours, so:

$w=2l$ equation (2)

Finally, we also know that 3hr exams 24hr workshops and 12hr lectures cost $528, so:

$3e+24w+12l=528$ equation (1)

Now, lets find the value of $l$ :

Step 1. Solve for $l$ in equation (3)

$3e+24w+12l=528$

$12l=528-3e-24w$ equation (4)

Step 2. Replace equation (1) in equation (4) and simplify

$12l=528-3e-24w$

$12l=528-3(2w)-24w$

$12l=528-6w-24w$

$12l=528-30w$ equation (5)

Step 3. Replace equation (2) in equation (5) and solve for $l$

$12l=528-30w$

$12l=528-30(2l)$

$12l=528-60l$

$72l=528$

$l=\frac{528}{72}$

$l=\frac{22}{3}$

$l=7.33$

Cost of lectures = $7.33 per hour

A cube has side length a. The side lengths are decreased to 50% of their original size. Write an expression in simplest form for

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

V = a³/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the original cube is the cube of the side length:

V = a³

When the side length is reduced to half its former value, the new volume is ...

V = (a/2)³ = a³/2³

V = a³/8 . . . . volume of the new cube

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

C. Different sample proportions would result each time, but for either sample size, they would be centered (have their mean) at the true population proportion.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information;

A political polling agency wants to take a random sample of registered voters and ask whether or not they will vote for a certain candidate.

A random sample is usually an outcome of any experiment that cannot be predicted before the result.

SO;

One plan is to select 400 voters, another plan is to select 1,600 voters

If the study were conducted repeatedly (selecting different samples of people each time);

Different sample proportions would result each time, but for either sample size, they would be centered (have their mean) at the true population proportion. This is because a sample proportion deals with random experiments that cannot be predicted in advance and they are quite known to be centered about the population proportion.
