In 1983, a microwave oven cost $78. 75. Today, a microwave oven costs $92. 66. If the CPI is 177, what is the relation of the actual price of a microwave oven to the expected price, to the nearest cent? a. The actual price is $46. 73 lower than the expected price. B. The actual price is $5. 59 lower than the expected price. C. The actual price is $13. 91 higher than the expected price. D. The actual price is $71. 35 higher than the expected price.

Answers

Answer 1

The actual price is $46.73 lower than the expected price.

What is the Formula for Consumer Price Index?

[tex]CPI_t=\frac{C_t}{C_0} * 100[/tex]

CPI=consumer price index in the current period

Ct= expected cost in current period

C₀ =cost in the base period

It is given that

Price in base period ie 1983 C₀= $78.75

The actual cost of the microwave oven = $92.66

Consumer Price Index= 177

So, expected price of microwave oven in the current period

Ct= CPIt * C₀ /100 = 177*78.75/100 = $139.39

Difference between the actual price and expected price = 139.39-92.66=$46.73

Therefore, The actual price is $46.73 lower than the expected price.

Can you help me solve for y ?? Please show your work !! Thank you.

Answers

Answer:

y = -3x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

x - y - 2 = 4x + 2

x - y - 2 + y = 4x + 2 + y

x - 2 = 4x + 2 + y

x - 2 - 4x - 2 = 4x + 2 + y - 4x - 2

-3x - 4 = y

so y = -3x - 4

Answer:

  y = -3x -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Any "solve for" problem involves inverse operations. You want to "undo" what has been done to the variable of interest. Generally, we're undoing multiplication or addition.

__

It can help to simplify the equation first:

  x -(y +2) = 2(2x +1)

 x -y -2 = 4x +2 . . . . eliminate parentheses using the distributive property

To get y by itself, we can undo the addition of (x -2) by subtracting that from both sides.

  -y = (4x +2) -(x -2)

  -y = 3x +4

To "undo" the multiplication of y by -1, we can multiply by the reciprocal of that, which is -1.

  (-y)(-1) = (-1)(3x +4)

  y = -3x -4

__

Additional comment

Here, we simplified the equation first. That's not always necessary or desirable. The first step is to look at what you have and make a plan. Here, y is in parentheses, so part of the plan will be to eliminate those parentheses.

NEED HELP ASAP! Which of the following could be the second equation in the system of equations seen below, so that the system has infinite solutions? Select all that apply.

Answers

Answer:

B, E, F

Step-by-step explanation:

If the system has infinite solutions, then the 2 equations will be identical.

So we are looking for an equation, which, when simplified or rearranged or multiplied by a constant, will be the same as the given equation [tex]4x-6y=12[/tex]

If we multiply equation A by 2 we get: 4x + 6y = 12

This is not the same as the original equation since the operation sign is addition rather than subtraction.

If we divide equation B by 5 we get:  4x - 6y = 12

This is identical to the original equation, and therefore could be the second equation.

Equation C: y = (2/3)x + 12

Multiply by 3:  3y = 2x + 36

Multiply by 2:  6y = 4x + 72

Rearrange:  4x - 6y = -72

If we divide equation D by 1.5 we get: 4x - (8/3)y = 8

Equation E:  y = (2/3)x - 2

Multiply by 3:  3y = 2x - 6

Multiply by 2:  6y = 4x - 12

Rearrange:  4x - 6y = 12

This is identical to the original equation, and therefore could be the second equation.

Equation F:  3y = 2x - 6

Multiply by 2:  6y = 4x - 12

Rearrange:  4x - 6y = 12

This is identical to the original equation, and therefore could be the second equation.

Question to Answer;

How much does the diamond weigh in milligrams/pounds?

Since 1 carat = 0.2 grams

1g = 1000 mg

1g = 0.0022 lb

Thus,

3106 ct = 0.2 * 3106g = 6212g

621.2g = 621.2 * 1000 mg = 621200 mg

At Niagra High, Mr. Borton bought 4 student tickets and 2 adult tickets for the high school musical which cost $64. then Mrs. Gelvoria bought 3 student tickets and 3 adult tickets for the show and it cost her $72. How much are each type of tickets?​

Answers

Answer:

Each student ticket costs $8.33

Each adult ticket costs $15.34

Step-by-step explanation:

At Niagra High, Mr. Borton bought 4 student tickets and 2 adult tickets for the high school musical which cost $64. then Mrs. Gelvoria bought 3 student tickets and 3 adult tickets for the show and it cost her $72. How much are each type of tickets?​

s = cost of each student ticket

a = cost of adult ticket

Our system of equations:

4s + 2a = 64

3s + 3a = 71

-3(4s + 2a = 64) ==> -12s - 6a = -192

2(3s + 3a = 71) ==>     6s + 6a = 142

-12s - 6a = -192

  6s + 6a = 142

-6s = -50

/-6      /-6

s = $8.33 (the cost of each student ticket)

Now, let's find the cost of each adult ticket:

4s + 2a = 64

4(8.33) + 2a = 64

33.32 + 2a = 64

-33.32         -33.32

2a = 30.68

/2        /2

a = 15.34 (the cost of each adult ticket)

(x, y) ==> (8.33, 15.34)

Check your answer:

4s + 2a = 64

4(8.33) + 2(15.34) = 64

33.32 + 30.68 = 64

64 = 64

This statement is true

Answers

answer: 55

Step-by-step explanation:

angle apg is eqal to angle pgr (being alternate angles)

x + pgr is equal to 120 (exterior angle of a triangle is equal to opposite interior angle)

Solution:

Let "E" denote the top right angle. (Refer to image). Then ∠E and ∠R are a linear pair.

⇒ ∠E + ∠R = 180

⇒ ∠E + 120 = 180

⇒ ∠E = 180 - 120

⇒ ∠E = 60°

Line AB forms a straight line which is a measure of 180°.

⇒ 65 + ∠E + x = 180

⇒ 65 + 60 + x = 180

⇒ 125 + x = 180

⇒ 125 - 125 + x = 180 - 125
