Answer:

-7/10

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we obviously need to convert 0.66 into a fraction.  Since -7/10 cannot be changed, we need to change AND simplify -0.66.

-0.66 is equal to -66/100, but we can still simplify this. We can divide the numerator and denominator by 2.

66 divided by 2 is 33.

100 divided by 2 is 50.

-33/50 CANNOT be simplified anymore.

So -7/10 _ -33/50. Which is greater?

-7/10 is closer to 0 on the number line. -33/50 isnt.

So -7/10 is the answer.

-7/10 > -0.66

Answer:

p = 18, q = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression on the left side of the equation is
[tex]\large \text {$ \dfrac{\sqrt{5}+\:2}{\sqrt{5}-2}+\dfrac{\sqrt{5}-\:2}{\sqrt{5}+2} $}[/tex]

Multiply the denominators to get a common denominator:

[tex]\text{$\left(\sqrt{5}-2\right)\left(\sqrt{5}+2\right)$}[/tex]

= [tex]\left(\sqrt{5}\right)^2-2^2[/tex]                           ∵ (a + b)(a - b) = a² - b²

[tex]=5-4\\\\= 1[/tex]

[tex]\large \text {$ \dfrac{\sqrt{5}+\:2}{\sqrt{5}-2}+\dfrac{\sqrt{5}-\:2}{\sqrt{5}+2} $}\\\\[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{\left(\sqrt{5}+2\right)\left(\sqrt{5}+2\right)}{\left(\sqrt{5}-2\right)\left(\sqrt{5}+2\right)} + \dfrac{\left(\sqrt{5} - 2\right)\left(\sqrt{5} - 2\right)}{\left(\sqrt{5}-2\right)\left(\sqrt{5}+2\right)}[/tex]

Since denominator
[tex]\text{$\left(\sqrt{5}-2\right)\left(\sqrt{5}+2\right)$} = 1,[/tex]

the expression becomes

[tex]=\left(\sqrt{5}+2\right)^2 + \left(\sqrt{5}-2\right)^2\\\\= 5 + 4\sqrt{5} + 4 + 5 - 4\sqrt{5} + 4\\\\[/tex]

[tex]= 10 + 8 = 18[/tex]

Therefore  
[tex]\large \text {$ \dfrac{\sqrt{5}+\:2}{\sqrt{5}-2}+\dfrac{\sqrt{5}-\:2}{\sqrt{5}+2} = p + q\sqrt{5}$}\\\\\\= > \large \text{$ 18 = p + q\sqrt{5}$}[/tex]

Now [tex]\sqrt{5}[/tex] is an irrational number and p = rational so since there is no [tex]\sqrt{5}[/tex] term on the left side, q = 0 and p = 18

Answer:

[tex]-12w + x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

question:

[tex]-3w - 3x - 7w + 4x - 2w[/tex]

first you add all the 'w' together.

(-3)+(-7)+(-2) = -10+(-2)=-12

so, [tex]-12w - 3x + 4x[/tex]

second you add all the 'x' together

(-3)+(4) = 1

so, [tex]-12w+1x[/tex]

then simplify:

The surface area and volume of the solid are  104 in² and 60 in³

It is important to note that the figure takes the shape of a cuboid.

The formula for determining the surface area of a cuboid is expressed as;

SA = 2lw + 2lh + 2hw

Where;

Now, let's substitute the values into the formula, we have;

Surface area = 2(5× 2) + 2(5 ×6) + 2(6 × 2)

expand the bracket

Surface area = 2(10) + 2(30) +2 (12)

Surface area = 104 in²

The formula for volume is given as;

Explanation:

The unique digits are: 9, 6, 1

There are 1+3+3 = 7 digits with the repeats mentioned. If we could somehow tell the 6's apart and the 1's apart, then we'd have 7! = 7*6*5*4*3*2*1 = 5040 different permutations.

But because we can't tell the 6's apart, nor the 1's apart, this means we have to divide by (3!*3!). Each 3! represents the number of times the 6's show up and same goes for the 1's.

So (5040)/(3!*3!) = 5040/(6*6) = 5040/36 = 140 is the number of ways to rearrange the digits

since the angles are opposite by the vertex, we have that the expression to find the value of x is:

What is GCF?

The biggest positive integer m that divides both x and y is the GCF of two or more non-zero integers, x, and y. The GCF stands for greatest common factor. In this case, greatest can be changed to highest, and factor to divisor. The highest common factor is often referred to as the biggest common factor, highest common factor, or highest common divisor (GCD). GCF is usually always utilised with fractions, which are frequently employed in daily life. You can obtain the necessary reduced form by determining the GCF of the denominator and numerator of a fraction or ratio.

A crane has a cable with a breaking strain of 6400 kg  measured to 2 significant figures.  It is used to lift crates which weigh 90 kg measured to the nearest 10 kg.

We need to calculate the greatest number of crates that can safely be lifted at one time without breaking the cable.

According to the question,

It is given that, the breaking strain of the crane is 6,400 kilograms and each crate is 90 kilograms.

Thus, to know the number of crates (n) that can safely lift is equal to the weight of the crane is 6,400 kilograms divided by is 90 kilograms.

thus,

[tex]n=\frac{weight of the crane}{weight of each crate}\\ \\n=\frac{6400}{90}[/tex]

The bulb is 5 inches far from the vertex of the cross section.

A portion of the right cone known as a parabola is one that runs parallel to the generating line on one side of the conic figure.

The standard equation for a parabola is typically expressed as y² = 4ax if the directrix is parallel to the y-axis, and y² = 4ax if the parabola is in the negative quadrants. The conventional equation of a parabola is x² = 4ax if the parabola is sideways, or if the directrix is parallel to the x-axis. If the parabola is in the negative quadrants, the equation is x² = 4ax.

Given, The equation x = 1/20y² can be used to model the cross section of a parabolic spotlight (with units in inches).

We must determine the distance between the bulb and the cross section's vertex.

Equation x = 1/20y² is alternatively denoted by the expression y² = 20x.

Now, comparing the equation to the parabola's conventional form, y²=4ax

So, 4a=20

a=5

The non-real solutions are (2 + i√26)/3 and  (2 - i√26)/3

The equation of the polynomial expression is given as:

3x^3 + 14x^2 - 14x + 60 = 0

From the question, we have

x = -6

This gives

So, we have

x + 6 = 0

The next step is to divide the polynomial equation 3x^3 + 14x^2 - 14x + 60 = 0 by x + 6 = 0

This is represented as

3x^3 + 14x^2 - 14x + 60/x + 6

Using a graphing calculator, we have

3x^3 + 14x^2 - 14x + 60/x + 6 = 3x^2 - 4x + 10

Next, we determine the solution of the quadratic expression 3x^2 - 4x + 10 using a quadratic formula

So, we have

x = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac))/2a

This gives

x = (4 ± √((-4)² - 4 * 3 * 10))/2 * 3

So, we have

x = (4 ± √-104)/6

This gives

x = (4 ± 2√-26)/6

Divide

x = (2 ± √-26)/3

Rewrite as

x = (2 ± i√26)/3

Split

x = (2 + i√26)/3 and  x = (2 - i√26)/3

Hence, the non-real solutions of the polynomial expression are x = (2 + i√26)/3 and  x = (2 - i√26)/3

n = 6

(6-2)×180 =  

4 × 180 = 720

So :

A + B + C + D + E + F = 720

Substitute values given in diagram (angle d is 90 as the little square indicates a right angle) (Calling angle a as x)  :

x + 135 + 115 + 90 + 110 + 170 = 720

Simplify :

x + 620 = 720

Subtract 620 from both sides :

x = 720 - 620

x = 100

Answer:$346.8

Step-by-step explanation:

1. X - 70% = 204

Want to get the value of X

2. X + 70% = 204 + 70%

= X = 204 x 1.7

= X = $346.8

Answer:

Original Price = $680

Step-by-step explanation:

Think about what a 70% reduction in price means.

If the original price of an item is $100 then a 70% reduction would mean that it costs 70% less from the original price. This means you would be paying only 30% of the original price

Let the original price be $P

Then the price you pay after 70% reduction is 30% of P
= P x 30/100

= P x 0.3                  (30% = 30/100 = 0.3)

= 0.3P

We are given that this sale price = $204

--> 0.3P = 204

Dividing both sides by 0.3 gives us the value for P
0.3P/0/3 = 204/0.3

P = 204/0.3 = 680

So

Original Price = $680

We can double check our computations as follows

If original price = 680, then a reduction of 70% would be a discount of
0.7 x 680 = 476

Price after discount = Original Price - Discount

= 680 - 476 = 204

So our results are consistent

We have the following:

To find the percent markup, we must calculate the profits, knowing that there are 300 shirts and they sell them for a total of $ 20
