There are 100 items in a garage sale. 30% of the items are sold during the first hour of the sale. If 10 items are sold during the second hour, what percent of the items have not been sold?

Answers

Answer 1

The percentage of items that have not been sold is: 60%

In mathematics, the percentage is calculated by dividing the given value by the total which is then multiplied by 100.

Percent in itself stands for out of 100.

Let the total number of items= i

Let the percentage be represented as= p

Then,

         i=100 (Given in the question)

Let the number of items sold in the first hour be= a

Let the number of items sold in the second-hour be= b

Since,

         p= Given Value/Total value x100

thus,

        a/100x100=30%

        The hundreds cancel out.

Thus, a=30 -(i)

The number of items sold in the second hour= b

b=10 (provided in the question) -(ii)

Let the total number of items sold be=T

The total number of items sold= a+b

From (i) and (ii)

Total number of items sold=30+10

Thus,

        Total number of items sold=40 -(iii)

Number of items that have not been sold(n)=100-(a+b)

                                                                        =100-T

                                                                        = 100-40

                                                       From (iii)

                                                                     n = 60 -(iv)

Then,

          Percentage of items that have not been sold = n/100x100

                                                                From -(iv)              

                                                                                      = 60/100x100

          Canceling hundred by hundred                      

                                                                                      = 60%

Thus,

          Answer: The percentage of items that have not been sold is: 60%

The expression that represents the sum of the arithmetic series that has a first term of -12, a common difference of +7 and a number of terms of 5 is the option with the following;

[tex]\sum\limits_{k = 0}^4-12+7\cdot k[/tex]

What is an arithmetic series?

An arithmetic series one that consists of the sum of an arithmetic sequence, such that each term of the series is obtained from the previous term by the addition or subtraction of a constant.

The series in the question is; -12 + (-5) + 2 + 9 + 16

Each term in the series is obtained from the previous term by the addition of a 7

The series in therefore a series of an arithmetic sequence

The equation of the series when the first term is -12 can therefore be presented as follows;

-12 + 7·k

Where;

-12 is the first term, 7 is the common difference, n is the number of terms, and k = n - 1

When n = 1, k = 0, which gives;When k = 0, the expression, -12 + 7·k = -12 + 7 × 0 = -12When k = 1, -12 + 7·k = -12 + 7 × 1 = -5When k = 2,  -12 + 7·k = -12 + 7 × 2 = 2When k = 3, -12 + 7·k = -12 + 7 × 3 = 9When k = 4, -12 + 7·k = -12 + 7 × 4 = 16

The above values for the terms of the series is obtained by using values of k that range from k = 0 to k = 4

The expression that represents the series is therefore the option;

Answers

The slope of points (1,3) and (4,5) will be 2/3.

What is a slope?

Slope or the gradient is the number or the ratio which determines the direction or the steepness of the line. The slope is also defined as the ratio of the rise and the run of the line.

Given that the line is passing through points (1,3) and (4,5). The slope of the line will be calculated as,

Slope = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

Slope = ( 5 - 3 ) / ( 4 - 1)

Slope = 2 / 3

A car moves at a speed of 80km/h from P at 0800 hours and reaches Q at 0930 hours. A lorry takes the same route from Q at 0800 hours to P at a speed of 70km/h. At what time do both vehicles meet?​

Answers

The vehicles will meet at 0845 at a distance of 64 km from P when they move at the respective speeds.

The car moves at a speed of 80km/h from P to Q and it takes time t

t = 9.30 - 8.00 = 1 hour 30 minutes or 1.5 hours

Distance covered = speed × time

Distance = 80 × 1.5 = 120 km

Now et the cars meets at a distance of x km from P.

times taken by the car to cover x km = x/80 hours

The lorry travels 120 - x in that same time.

time taken = 70/(120 - x)

Now the time taken must be equal.

Therefore we will form an equation to calculate x.

(120 - x) / 70 = x / 80

or, 960 - 8x = 7x

or, 15x = 960

or, x = 64

Therefore the cars will meet at 64 km from P.

Now time taken by the car to cover 64 km = 64/80 = 0.8 hours = 48 minutes

Hence the cars will meet at 0845 hours.

Answers

The value that the linear equation predicts for the year 2001 is 4652.15

The discrepancy between the actual and anticipated value is 2173.85

Given data;

Here, we present the dataset from the United Nations, which contains information on the number of kilowatt-hours of wind energy generated globally. The data set provides statistics on the US for 25 years, from 1990 to 2014, in millions of kilowatt-hours.

The linear equation for the first 11 years of data, from 1990 to 2000, must be determined.

To determine how much the actual value and anticipated value for the year 2001 differ in Quantity, we must first forecast the value for the year 2001 using our fitted equation with y-intercept.

It will be written as y = m(x) + c.

where,

The dependent variable is y. (in our example is quantity)

The independent variable is x. (in our example is the year)

'm' is equal to the slope of the variable X.

'C' is a constant.

The fitted equation is provided as follows:

Quantity = 186.87 (year) - 369274.72

Now that the value for the year 2001 has been provided,

Quantity = -1868.87 -369274.72 

Quantity = 4652.15

The value that the linear equation predicts for the year 2001 is 4652.15.

The precise figure for 2001 is 6806.

For the year 2001, the discrepancy between the actual and anticipated values is

6806 - 4652.15 = 2173.85

The distinction is 2173.85.

(2173.85/6806)*100 is the percentage difference.

As a result, the difference between the actual value and the forecasted value for the year 2001 is 31.94%.

Hence,

The value that the linear equation predicts for the year 2001 is 4652.15

The discrepancy between the actual and anticipated value is 2173.85

what is the vertex of -2x^2 +12x -10

Answers

The vertex of the function f(x) = x^2 + 12x is (-6, -36).

How can the vertex be expressed?

The concept that will be used here is the concept of Standard equation of a curve in vertex form.

The standard equation can be written as

f (x) = ax^2 + bx + c

Then the Vertex is the (h,k)

Then the X-coordinate of the vertex  can be written as (h = -b/2a) where  k = f(h)

If we compare the given equation with the standard form, then we have

a = 1, b = 12 and c = -10

Then we can input the values into the  (h = -b/2a)

h =[ -12/2(1)] = - 6

Then we can substitute the value of h in f (x) which is f(x) = x2 + 12x

k = f(h)= f (-6) =[ (-6)2 + 12 (-6)]

= [36 - 72] = -36

suppose weights of the checked baggage of airline passengers follow a nearly normal distribution with mean 45 pounds and standard deviation 3.2 pounds. most airlines charge a fee for baggage that weigh in excess of 50 pounds. determine what percent of airline passengers incur this fee.

Answers

In most of the cases airlines charges a fees for baggage weigh in excess of 50 pounds. Then about 94.06% passengers incur this fees.

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean and standard deviation , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Given That,

Mean (μ) = 45 pounds and Standard Deviation (σ) = 3.2

This means that μ = 46 , σ = 3.2

Since, Most airlines charges a fee for baggage that weigh in excess of 50 pound.

Then, As a proportion this is 1 subtracted by the P - value of Z when

X =50. So,

      Z = X - μ / σ

⇒ Z = 50 -45/ 3.2

⇒ Z = 5/3.2

⇒ Z = 1.56

when Z = 1.56 has a P- value of 0.9406

Now, 0.9406 × 100%

       = 94.06%
