These are the first sentences in the short story, "The Gift of the Magi," by O. Henry:

"One dollar and eighty-seven cents. That was all. And sixty cents of it was in pennies."

Model the scenario with an equation. Let q be the number of quarters, d be the number of dimes, and n be the number of nickels.

25 q + 10 d + 5 n + 60 = 1.87
0.25 q + 0.10 d + 0.5 n + 0.60 = 187
q + d + n + 60 = 187
25 q + 10 d + 5 n + 60 = 187

The right option which completes the sequence is option d.

21.

Given, the series is 27, 3 , 24 , 7,......11, 18

There are 2 series in the given series,

1st series = 27 , 24 , ? , 18

2 nd series = 3 , 7 , 11

In the first series, the next term gets subtracted by 3.

27 - 3 = 24

24 - 3 = 21

21 - 3 = 18

In the second series, the next term gets added by 4.

3 + 4 = 7

7 + 4 = 11

hence the series is completed:

27,3,24,7,21,11,18

Therefore the sequence is completed.

Combine like terms (6k and 7k)

The simplified form is 13k + 49.

Using simple interest, the better deal is given by Bank B.

The options are missing, but they are given as follows:

Simple interest is used when there is a single compounding per time period.

The amount of money after t years in is modeled by:

A(t) = A(0)(1 + rt)

In which:

For Bank A, the balance, without the fee, will be given by:

A(1) = 500(1 + 0.1) = $550.

Removing the fee:

550 - 12 x 5 = $490.

For Bank B, the balance is given by:

A(1) = 500(1 + 0.02) = $510.

No fee, 510 > 490, hence Bank B offers the better deal.

The  f(x) - k shifts the function g(x) by  √0.8x units downwards

Let us consider

f(x) = g(x) + k

g(x) = f(x) - k

where f(x) = √x and

          g(x) = √0.2x

Substituting these values in the above equation

√0.2x = √x - k

-k = -√x + √0.2x

k = √x - √0.2x

k = √0.8x

which means that the f(x) - k shifts the function g(x) by √0.8x units downwards.

The most convenient method to graph the line is to plot the equation y = -3/2x + 6 to represent the equation 3x + 2y = 12

Linear equations are equations that have constant average rates of change.

Note that the constant average rates of change can also be regarded as the slope or the gradient

The equation is given as

3x + 2y = 12

The above equation is a linear equation

All forms of equation can be conveniently plotted by a graphing utility

However, the best way is to start by simplifying the equation

So, we have

3x + 2y = 12

Divide through the equation by 2

So, we have

3/2x + y = 6

Make y the subject of the equation

So, we have

y = -3/2x + 6

This means that  we plot the equation y = -3/2x + 6 to represent the equation 3x + 2y = 12

According to the question we have been given two equation which are :

       x + y = 3       and  y = 3x - 1

We need solve this system of equation by graphing that is we have to find the value of x and y from the graph.

For the solution of the system of equation from graph we need to find the intersecting point.

First we will plot the graph of both the equation

For , x+y = 3

      the coordinates are (0,3) and (1,2)

For, y = 3x-1

      the coordinates are (0,-1) and (1,2)

Answer:

  [-4, 0]

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the set -4 ≤ x ≤ 0 expressed using interval notation.

In interval notation, an interval is expressed as an ordered pair, with the first number of the pair being the lower end of the interval, and the second number being the upper end.

When the inequality symbol used to describe the interval is "less than" (<), the bracket used is a round bracket (parenthesis). When the symbol is "less than or equal to" (≤), a square bracket is used. The brackets need not be of the same kind.

When one end of the interval is an infinity (positive or negative), a round bracket is used.

The interval

  -4 ≤ x ≤ 0

is written using the ordered pair ...

  [-4, 0]

The number sequence x satisfying-4< x <0 is an interval containing -4,0 as well as all numbers between -4 and 0.

[-4, 0]

A graph for interval notation is created when we describe the solution set of an interval on even a number line.

Intervals are represented in rectangular brackets as well as parentheses, and two numbers are separated by a comma. The two numbers are referred to as the interval's endpoints. The number on the left represents the smallest element or lower bound.

Interval notation is a technique for representing any subset of the real number line. To write interval notation, we utilize different symbols depending on the type of interval.. For instance, the set of numbers x satisfying 1 x 6 is an interval containing 1, 6, and all values between 1 and 6.

The ordered pair is used to write the interval -4 x 0.

[-4, 0].

Answer:  $24

Step-by-step explanation:

14+14+14+14=56

56+24=80

80/5

16

The 5th shirt cost $24 if the average after the 5th shirt was purchased changed to $16 per shirt.

Let's consider the total cost of the first 4 shirts:

Total cost of first 4 shirts = 4 shirts * $14/shirt = $56

Now, let's assume the cost of the 5th shirt is "x" dollars. After purchasing the 5th shirt, the total cost of all 5 shirts would be:

Total cost of all 5 shirts = $56 + x

Given that the average price after the 5th shirt was purchased is $16, we can set up an equation using the average formula:

Average price = Total cost / Number of shirts

$16 = ($56 + x) / 5

Solving for x:

$16 * 5 = $56 + x

$80 = $56 + x

x = $80 - $56

x = $24

So, the cost of the 5th shirt (x) is $24. This means that the person purchased the 5th shirt for $24 in order to bring the average price of all 5 shirts to $16 per shirt.

Step-by-step explanation:

The commission for the sale of $33000 worth of items at 6 percent is $1980 and if the sale doubles than the commission would be $3960

Given that the commission rate is 6%

If the sales done is 33000 dollars then the commission received by the agent would be:

33000 * 0.06 = 1980

Now if the sale doubles we would have 33000 x 2

= 66000 dollars

then the commission received would be

66000 x 0.06

= $3960

Hence we would say that the commission for the sale of $33000 worth of items at 6 percent is $1980 and if the sale doubles than the commission would be $3960
