Victor Malaba has a net income of $1,240 per month. If he spends $150 on food, $244 on a carpayment, $300 on rent, and $50 on savings, what percent of his net income can he spend on other things
I'm getting lost when solving for x
Any help is greatly appreciated

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: $1,240-$150-$244-$300-$50=$496 left
496/1240=x/100
x=49600/1240=40%
All you have to do is use proportions.

3 / 4 = 39 / x

4*39 = 3*x

x = 42

In the function f(x) = 4(x2 − 6x + ____) + 20, what number belongs in the blank to complete the square?

Answers

f(x) = 4(x² - 6x + ___) + 20

completing the square.

a² + 2ab + b²

a² = x² = x * x
2ab = -6x =  2*x* -3
b² = -3² = 9

f(x) = 4(x² - 6x + 9) + 20
f(x) = 4x² - 24x + 36 + 20
f(x) = 4x² - 24x + 56

Point P(3, 9) in the coordinate plane is rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise about the origin. What are the coordinates of its image?Please show all work and not just the answers.

Answers

Answer:

  P'(-9, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The transformation for rotation counterclockwise about the origin by some angle α will be ...

  (x, y) ⇒ (x·cos(α) -y·sin(α), x·sin(α) +y·cos(α))

When the angle is α = 90°, this reduces to ...

  (x, y) ⇒ (-y, x)

You have (x, y) = (3, 9), so the image point is P'(-9, 3).

__

Additional comment

The "work" is applying the right sign and choosing the right coordinate to fill in the values (-y, x). I find it easier to look up the transformations for ±90° and 180°, rather than try to derive them from first principles every time. Your text may have a list:

  • 90° CCW or 270° CW: (x, y) ⇒ (-y, x)
  • 90° CW or 270° CCW: (x, y) ⇒ (y, -x)
  • 180°: (x, y) ⇒ (-x, -y)

Answers

Answer:

Correct answer is option c.

Step-by-step explanation:

In economics growth period, when pricing are rising too rapidly, in order to stabilize prices, Federal Reserve should raise the discount rates.

Answer:

Raise the discount rate.

Step-by-step explanation:

The country has entered a period of economic growth, but prices are rising too rapidly. To stabilize prices, the Federal Reserve decides to - Raise the discount rate.

Economic growth is defined as a period when the goods and services produced per head of the population over a period of time increases.

So, when the prices are rising the government increases the discount rate to stabilize that price hike.

a jar contains half dollars and quarters. there are 30 coins in all in the jar. the total value of the coins is $8.75. how many quarters are in the jar?

Answers

25 quarters because if you set up a system of equations you get x+y=30 since there are x number of half dollars and y number of quarters plus each other is 30. Next equation is .5x+.25y=8.75 half dollar is 50cents while a quarter equals 25 cents and together they have to equal 8.75. Now you eliminate one variable then you add the remaining variable and the amounts together then you divide if you eliminated the x variable your answer is the one you get after you divide. If you eliminate the y variable then you have to plug it then you get your answer. hope this helped
