An author published a book which was being sold online. The first month the author sold 14400 books, but the sales were declining steadily at 5% each month. If this trend continues, how many total books would the author have sold over the first 23 months, to the nearest whole number?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The author sold a total of 30240 books following this trend.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find 5% of 14400 first;

14400 * 5%

14400 * 5/100

144 * 5

720 (So now we know that they are decreasing by 720 each month; therefore thats the constant)

=> aₙ = a₁ + r(n - 1)

=> a₂₃ = 14400 + 720(23 - 1)

=> a₂₃ = 14400 + 720(22)

=> a₂₃ = 14400 + 15840

=> a₂₃ = 30240

Hope this helps!

What is an arithmetic progression?

A, is a type of numerical sequence studied by Mathematics, where each term or element counting from the second is equal to the sum of the previous term with a constant.

So using the arithmetic progression we have:

[tex]a_n = a_1 + r(n - 1)\\a_{23} = 14400 + 720(23 - 1)\\ a_{23} = 14400 + 720(22)\\ a_{23} = 14400 + 15840\\a_{23} = 30240[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for complete question

Required

[tex]\angle ABC[/tex] and side length DC

 Calculating [tex]\angle ABC[/tex]

First, calculate [tex]\angle EBC[/tex]

[tex]\angle EBC + \angle BCE + 90 = 180[/tex] --- angles in a triang;e

[tex]\angle BCE =\angle BCD = 67.4[/tex]

So:

[tex]\angle EBC + 67.4+ 90 = 180[/tex]

[tex]\angle EBC + 157.4 = 180[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]\angle EBC = 180-157.4[/tex]

[tex]\angle EBC = 22.6[/tex]

So:

[tex]\angle ABC = \angle EBC +90[/tex]

[tex]\angle ABC = 22.6 +90[/tex]

[tex]\angle ABC = 112.6^o[/tex]

Calculating DC

First, calculate EC using Pythagoras theorem.

[tex]BC^2 = BE^2 + EC^2[/tex]

[tex]65^2 = 60^2 + EC^2[/tex]

[tex]4225 = 3600 + EC^2[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]EC^2 =4225 - 3600[/tex]

[tex]EC^2 =625[/tex]

Take square roots

[tex]EC = 25[/tex]

Length DC is:

[tex]DC = DE + EC[/tex]

Where

[tex]DE = AB =80[/tex]

So:

Answer:

28 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

40 percent is 0.4 and 100 percent is 1. Since you have the full 100% of 20 plus the increase of 40% you have to multiply by 20 by 1.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the functions f(x) = 2x + 1 and g(x) = 5x +4, find m(x) = f(x) - g(x)?

А. m(x) = 3x + 3

B. m(x) = -3x + 5

C. m(x) = -3x - 3

D. m(x) = 7x + 5​

Answers

Answer:

m(x) =-3x -3

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2x + 1

g(x) = 5x +4

f(x) -g(x) =  2x + 1 -( 5x +4)

Distribute the minus sign

f(x) -g(x) =  2x + 1 -5x -4

Combine like terms

            = 2x-5x   +1 -4

             = -3x -3

Sebastian bought x gallons of gas at a price of $2.91 per gallon at his local gas station. When he paid for the gas, Sebastian also paid $11.40 for granola
bars and a box of tissues.
If Sebastian filled 10 gallons of gas, how much did he spend in all at the gas station?

Answers

Answer:

Sebastian spent $40.40 at the gas station.

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's find how much the gas cost.

So it's $2.91 a gallon, and Sebastian fills 10 gallons of gas, so we multiply.

10 * 2.91 = $29.10

Then we add on the $11.40 from the granola bars and the box of tissues.

$29.10 + $11.40 = $40.50

So the final price should be $40.40. Sebastian spent $40.40 at the gas station.

.. The solution of which quadratic Inequality is shown on the number line?

O (2-6) (2 - 4) > 0
O (30 – 6)(+4) <0.
O (30 – 6) (x – 4) <0

Answers

Answer:  Choice C

Explanation:

If you graphed (x-6)(x+4) on the xy plane, then you'll see a parabola forming. This parabola has roots at x = -4 and x = 6. Between these roots, the curve is below the x axis. This visually shows that (x-6)(x+4) is negative when -4 < x < 6.

Furthermore, we can say that (x-6)(x+4) is negative or zero when [tex]-4 \le x \le 6[/tex] which corresponds directly to the number line graph your teacher gave you. The endpoints being closed circles mean "include this as part of the shaded solution set".

Tina's family buys 4 cheeseburgers and 3 orders of fries for $7.25. Louise's family buys 6 cheeseburgers and 3 orders of fries for $9.75. What is the total cost of 1 cheeseburger and 1 order of fries?

Answers

Answer:

cheeseburgers cost= $1.25 and

Fries cost = $0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

let cheeseburgers be x

and fries be y

4x+3y= 7.25--------------1

6x+3y= 9.75--------------2

Subtract the equations

   4x+3y= 7.25--------------1

  6x+3y= 9.75--------------2

-2x+0= -2.5

2x=2.5

x=2.5/1.5

x= 1.25

Put x=  1.25 in 1

 4x+3y= 7.25--------------1

 4(1.25)+3y= 7.25--------------1

 5+3y= 7.25

3y=7.25-5

3y=2.25

y= 2.25/3

y= 0.75

Hence cheeseburgers cost= $1.25 and

Fries cost = $0.75

Raju's father is 26 years younger than raju's grandfather and 29 years older than raju. The sum of the ages of all the three is 135 years. Also raju's grandmother is 4 times raju's age and his sister is 7 times younger than him

Answers

Answer:

Raju = 17 years

Raju's father age = 46 years

Raju's grandfather age = 72 years

Raju's grandmother = 68 years

His sister = 10 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Raju’s father is 26 years younger than Raju’s grandfather and 29 years older than Raju. The sum of the ages of all the three is 135 years. Also, Raju's Grandmother is four times of Raju’s age and his sister is 7 years younger than him.

Let

Raju's age = x

Raju's father age = x + 29

Raju's grandfather age = (x + 29) + 26

Total ages = 135

(x) + (x + 29) + (x + 29) + 26 = 135

x + x + 29 + x + 29 + 26 = 135

3x + 84 = 135

3x = 135 - 84

3x = 51

x = 51 /3

x = 17

Raju's age = x = 17 years

Raju's grandmother = 4 times raju's age

= 4 × 17 years

= 68 years

his sister = 7 years younger than him.

= 17 - 7

= 10 years old

Raju's father age = x + 29

= 17 + 29

= 46 years

Raju's grandfather age = (x + 29) + 26

= 46 + 26

= 72 years

Suppose there is a city where the mean cost per month of a one-bedroom apartment is $1,500, with a standard deviation of $250. Approximately what percentage of one-bedroom apartments in the city cost between $750 and $1,000?

Answers

Answer:

2.35%

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we calculate the z-score of each

we have this as;

z-score = (x - mean)/SD

from the question, mean is $1,500 while standard deviation is $250

So for each;

z-score = (750-1500)/250 = -750/250 = -3

z-score = (1000-1500)/250 = -500/250 = -2

Simply put, we want to calculate the percentage of prices between three standard deviations below the mean and two standard deviations below the mean

We can calculate this by using the empirical rule chart;

By looking up the this, the percentage of values between 3 SD below the mean and 2 SD below the mean is 2.35%
