First, we calculated the discounted price which would have been paid by Keith. That is the product of 85% and $36,000.
                                      ($36,000) x (85%) = $30,600
Then, after negotiating to pay 9% off the sale price, he will only need to pay 91% of the sale price. The new price would be,
                              ($30600) x (0.91) = $27846
Thus, Keith will only need to pay $27,846.

One of the sides of a parallelogram is 4.2 cm and the altitude to that side is 3.6 cm. Find the perimeter of the parallelogram i
dexar [7]

Area of parallelogram = base * height
base 1 = 4.2 cm
height 1 = 3.6 cm
∴ Area = 4.2 * 3.6 = 15.12

let the other base 2 = x
∴ the altitude of this base = height 2 = 2.4
∴Area = 2.4 x = 15.12
Solve for x
                 ∴ x = 6.3 cm

∴ The perimeter of parallelogram = 2( base 1 + base 2)
                                                      = 2 ( 4.2 + 6.3 ) = 21 cm

A sample of the salaries of assistant professors on the business faculty at a local university revealed a mean income of $100,00
serg [7]

Answer:

a) 68%

b) 95%.

c) 2.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean of 100,000, standard deviation of 10,000.

a. Approximately what percentage of the salaries fall between $90,000 and $110,000?

90,000 = 100,000 - 10,000

110,000 = 100,000 + 10,000

Within 1 standard deviation of the mean, so approximately 68%.

b. Approximately what percentage of the salaries fall between $80,000 and $120,000?

80,000 = 100,000 - 2*10,000

120,000 = 100,000 + 2*10,000

Within 2 standard deviations of the mean, so approximately 95%.

c. Approximately what percentage of the salaries are greater than $120,000?

More than 2 standard deviations above the mean.

Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean, so approximately 5% are more than 2 standard deviations from the mean.

The normal distribution is symmetric, which means that 2.5% are more then 2 standard deviations below the mean, and 2.5% are more than 2 standard deviations above the mean, which means that 2.5% of the salaries are greater than $120,000.

Mashcka [7]

Part 1)
Sam is observing the velocity of a car at different times. After three hours, the velocity of the car is 51 km/h. After five hours, the velocity of the car is 59 km/h.

Part 1 a): Write an equation in two variables in the standard form that can be used to describe the velocity of the car at different times. Show your work and define the variables used

Let

A(3,51) B(5,59)

x------ > represent different times

y------ > represent the velocity of the car

Step 1

Find the slope AB

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)------ > m=(59-51)/(5-3)------ > m=8/2---- > m=4

Step 2

With m=4 and point A(3,51) find the equation of the line

y-y1=m*-(x-x1)------ > y-51=4*(x-3)----- > y=4x-12+51----- > y=4x+39

we know that

The standard form of line equation is Ax + By = C

So

y=4x+39----- > y-4x=39------ > this is the standard form

the answer part 1 a) is

y-4x=39


Part 1 b) How can you graph the equation obtained in Part a) for the first six hours?

To graph the equation obtained in Part a) plot the point A and the point B
and join the points to draw the line


To obtain the velocity for the first six hours, substitute the value of x=6 hour in the equation

for x=6 hour

y-4x=39------ > y-4*6=39------ > y=39+24------ > y=63 km/h


using a graph tool

see the attached figure N 1


Part 2)

g(x)=1+1.5^x

step 1

find the equation of the line of f(x)

let

A(-5,3) B(-3,-1)

m=(-1-3)/(-3+5)----- > m=-4/2---- > m=-2

with m=-2 and point A

y-y1=m*(x-x1)------ > y-3=-2*(x+5)---- > y=-2x-10+3----- > y=-2x-7

so

f(x)=-2x-7

step 2

find the equation of the line of p(x)

let

C(0,2) D(-2,-3)

m=(-3-2)/(-2-0)----- > m=-5/-2---- > m=2.5

with m=2.5 and point C

y-y1=m*(x-x1)------ > y-2=2.5*(x-0)---- > y=2.5x+2

so

p(x)=2.5x+2

Part 2 a) What is the solution to the pair of equations represented by p(x) and f(x)?

We know that

The solution is the intersection of both graphs

Using a graph tool

See the attached figure N 2

The solution is the point (-2,-3)


Part 2 b) Write any two solutions for f(x).

f(x)=-2x-7


for x=0

f(0)=2*0-7---- > f(0)=-7

solution 1 is the point (0,-7)


for x=1

f(1)=2*1-7---- > f(1)=-5

solution 2 is the point (1,-5)


Part 2 c) What is the solution to the equation p(x) = g(x)?

We have

p(x)=2.5x+2

g(x)=1+1.5^x

We know that

The solution is the intersection of both graphs

Using a graph tool

See the attached figure N 3

The solution are the points (0,2) and (7.3,20.2)


Part 3
)

Part A:There are many system of inequalities that can be created such that only contain points D and E in the overlapping shaded regions.

Any system of inequalities which is satisfied by (-4, 2) and (-1, 5) but is not satisfied by (1, 3), (3, 1), (3, -3) and (-3, -3) can serve.

An example of such system of equation is

x < 0

y > 0

The system of equation above represent all the points in the second quadrant of the coordinate system.The area above the x-axis and to the left of the y-axis is shaded.

see the attached figure N 4

Part B:It can be verified that points D and E are solutions to the system of inequalities above by substituting the coordinates of points D and E into the system of equations and see whether they are true.

Substituting D(-4, 2) into the system

we have:

-4 < 0

2 > 0

as can be seen the two inequalities above are true, hence point D is a solution to the set of inequalities.

Also,

substituting E(-1, 5) into the system we have:

-1 < 0

5 > 0

as can be seen the two inequalities above are true, hence point E is a solution to the set of inequalities.

Part C:Given that chicken can only be raised in the area defined by y > 3x - 4.

To identify the farms in which chicken can be raised, we substitute the coordinates of the points A to F into the inequality defining chicken's area.

For point A(1, 3): 3 > 3(1) - 4 ⇒ 3 > 3 - 4 ⇒ 3 > -1 which is true

For point B(3, 1): 1 > 3(3) - 4 ⇒ 1 > 9 - 4 ⇒ 1 > 5 which is false

For point C(3, -3): -3 > 3(3) - 4 ⇒ -3 > 9 - 4 ⇒ -3 > 5 which is false

For point D(-4, 2): 2 > 3(-4) - 4; 2 > -12 - 4 ⇒ 2 > -16 which is true

For point E(-1, 5): 5 > 3(-1) - 4 ⇒ 5 > -3 - 4 ⇒ 5 > -7 which is true

For point F(-3, -3): -3 > 3(-3) - 4 ⇒ -3 > -9 - 4 ⇒ -3 > -13 which is true

Therefore,

the farms in which chicken can be raised are the farms at point A, D, E and F.
