Answer:

Sample Response: Kelvin should have subtracted $18.39 from $30.65 to find the marked down price. He could also have multiplied the original cost by 40% to find the sale price of $12.26.

The error.....Kelvin just figured the 60% markdown cost...not the final price

the final price would be : 30.65 - 0.60(30.65) = 30.65 - 18.39 = 12.26
so 12.26 is the final price

or another way to do this is : if it is marked down 60%, then u r actually paying 40%......0.40(30.65) = 12.26

Which shows two triangles that are congruent by AAS?
cricket20 [7]

The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

The last one.

Explanation:

AAS means "angle-angle-side." It states that if two angles and a non-included side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding two angles and non-included side of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

The only triangle in this list marked as having two congruent angles and a side that is not between them congruent is the last figure.

$53,000 is placed in an investment account that grows at a fixed rate of 2% (compound growth) per year. how much is in the accou
ella [17]

Answer:

$57,369

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that an amount of $53,000 is placed in an investment account that grows at a fixed rate of 2% (compound growth) per year. We are asked to find the amount in the account after 4 years.

To solve our given problem we will use compound interest formula.\

A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}, where,

A = Final amount after t years,

P = Principal amount,

r = Annual interest rate in decimal form,

n = Number of times interest is compounded per year,

t = Time in years.

Let us convert our given rate in decimal form.

2\%=\frac{2}{100}=0.02

Upon substituting our given values in compound interest formula we will get,

A=\$53,000(1+\frac{0.02}{1})^{1*4}

A=\$53,000(1+0.02)^{4}

A=\$53,000(1.02)^{4}

A=\$53,000*1.08243216

A=\$57368.90448\approx \$57,369

Therefore, an amount of $57,369 will be in the account after 4 years.

Linda saves $1.55 every day. Tyron saves $3.90 every day. Linda started saving 3 days earlier than Tyron. On which day will Tyro
madreJ [45]
Step 1: Write the amount of savings in equation
Linda's savings: s=1.55d
Tyron's savings: m=3.90d

Step 2: Add on the extra days to Linda's savings
Linda's savings s=1.55d+3(1.55)

Step 4: Simplify equation
s=1.55d+3(1.55)
s=1.55d+4.66

Step 5: Substitute numbers for d days until Tyron's m savings is greater than Linda's s saving
m=3.90d s=1.55(2)+4.66
m=3.90(2) s=3.10+4.66
m=7.80 s=7.76

On Tyron's second day he will have more money in his savings than Linda does.

Find the coefficient of x2 in (3x2 – 5) (4 + 4x2), expand using algebraic expressions and answer
Scilla [17]

Answer:

- 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(3x² - 5)(4 + 4x²)

Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is

3x²(4 + 4x²) - 5 (4 + 4x²) ← distribute both parenthesis

= 12x² + 12x^{4} - 20 - 20x² ← collect like terms

= 12x^{4} - 8x² - 20

The coefficient of the x² term is - 8

Triangle A B C is shown. Angle B C A is a right angle. The length of hypotenuse A B is 26, the length of A C is 10, and the leng
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

<h2>The right option is twelve-fifths</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a right angle triangle ABC as shown in the diagram. If ∠BCA = 90°, the hypotenuse AB = 26, AC = 10 and BC = 24.

Using the SOH, CAH, TOA trigonometry identity, SInce we are to find tanA, we will use TOA. According to TOA;

Tan (A) = opp/adj

Taken BC as opposite side since it is facing angle A directly and AC as the adjacent;

tan(A) = BC/AC

tan(A) = 24/10

tan(A) = 12/5

The right option is therefore twelve-fifths
