40% of $500
500×.40=200
500-200=300
The actual cost would be $300.

500*40%=200 500-200=$300 is the actual cost with the discount

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer: The answer is Yes.

Step-by-step explanation: Given in the question that Radric was asked to define "parallel lines" and he said that parallel lines are lines in a plane that do not have any points in common. We are to decide whether Radric's definition is valid or not.

Parallel lines are defined as lines in a plane which never meets or any two lines in a plane which do not intersect each other at any point are called parallel.

Thus, Radric's definition is valid.

12. A cyclist travels 40 km at a speed of x km/h. Find the time

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

distance = rate times time, so

distance

time = --------------

rate

Here the distance is 40 km and the rate is x. Then

40 km

time = -------------- = (40/x) hr

x km/hr

If the speed is reduced by 2 km/hr, we get:

40 km 40 km 40

time = ------------------------------- or time = ----------------------- = --------- hr

(x km/hr - 2 km/hr) (x - 2) (km/hr) x - 2

The difference between the times is:

40 40

-------- - --------- = 1 hr Solve this for the original speed, x

x - 2 x

40x - 40x + 80 80

----------------------- = 1 hr or ------------ = 1 or 80 = x^2 - 2x

x(x - 2) x(x - 2)

Rewriting this in standard quadratic form: x^2 - 2x - 80 = 0

Here a = 1, b = -2 and c = -80, and so the discriminant b^2 - 4ac is:

(-2)^2 - 4(1)(-80) = 324

The solutions are:

-(-2) ± √324 2 ± 18

x = -------------------- = ------------ = 1 ± 9, or 10 (discard the other root)

2 2

The original speed was 10 km/hr

A manufacturer of banana chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 449 gram setting. It is

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

We accetp H₀

Step-by-step explanation:

Information:

Normal distribution

Population mean = μ₀ = 449

Population standard deviation σ unknown

Sample size n = 23 n < 30 we use t-student test

so n = 23 degree of fredom df = n - 1 df = 23- 1 df = 22

Sample mean μ = 448

Sample standard deviation s = 20

Significance level α = 0,05

1.-Hypothesis Test

Null hypothesis H₀ μ₀ = 449

Alternative hypothesis Hₐ μ₀ ≠ 449

Problem statement ask for determine decision rule for rejecting the null hypothesis. For rejecting the null hypothesis we have to get an statistic parameter wich implies that μ is bigger or smaller than μ₀

2.-Significance level α = 0,05 ; as we have a two tail test

α/2 = 0,025

Then from t - student table for df = 22 and 0,025 (two tail-test)

t(c) = ± 2.074

3.- Compute t(s)

t(s) = ( μ - μ₀ ) / s /√n

plugging in values

t(s) = (448 - 449) / 20 /√23 ⇒ t(s) = - 1*√23 /20

t(s) = - 0.2398

4.-Compare t(c) and t(s)

t(s) < t(c) - 0.2398 < - 2.074

Therefore t(s) in inside acceptance region. We accept H₀

yan [13]

Denise is constructing A square.

Note: A square has all sides equal.

We already given two vertices M and N of the square.

And another edge of the square is made by from N.

Because a square has all sides of equal length, the side NO should also be equal to MN side of the square.

Therefore, <em>Denise need to place the point of the compass on point N and draw an arc that intersects N O, using MN as the width for the opening of the compass. That would make the NO equals MN.</em>

Therefore, correct option is :

D) place the point of the compass on point N and draw an arc that intersects N O, using MN as the width for the opening of the compass.

Each time Kristine gets paid, she spends $20 and saves the rest. If the amount Kristine earns is represented by x and the amount

faust18 [17]

We are given that Kristine spends $20 and saves the rest each time she get paid.

We can use slope-intercept form y=mx+b to represent the equation.

Where x represents the amount Kristine earns and y represents the amount she saves.

Kristine spends $20. Therefore b= -20.

Plugging mx as just x and b=-20.

<h3>y = x-20.</h3><h3>If we plug y=0, we get </h3><h3>0 = x-20</h3><h3>x=20.</h3><h3>We can see in 4th option we have x-intercept =20.</h3><h3>Therefore, correct option is 4th option. </h3><h3 />
