If I rencently decreased my average number of products sold per week by 15% I now sell an average of 21.25 products per week. Pr

Let's begin.

Assume that previously the weekly product sales were x.

The problem states that the average sales were reduced by 15%.

This means the reduction in sales is: x × 15% = 0.15 x.

Therefore, the new average sales become: x - 0.15 x = 0.85 x.

We know the new average is 21.25 products.

Thus, 0.85 x = 21.25.

Dividing both sides by 0.85:

x = 21.25 / 0.85

x = 25

This shows that the earlier weekly sales were 25 products. : Answer

Hope this helps :)

How many possible values for y are there where y = cos^-1 0?
Zina [12379]

The potential values for y areinfinite

Further clarification

Trigonometry is a branch of math focused on the connections between the sides and angles of triangles.

Considering special angles of trigonometric functions, for instance

\displaystyle sin~0=0\\\\cos~30=\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{3}\\\\tan~45=1\\\\sec~45=\sqrt{2}\\\\etc.

In the equation y = cos⁻¹ 0, the value of y can be derived as follows:

y = cos⁻¹0

y = arc cos 0

cos y = 0

Thus, the resulting value of y:

\displaystyle \frac{\pi }{2},\frac{3}{2}\pi,\frac{5}{2}\pi, etc

Alternatively, it can be expressed as:

\displaystyle y=\frac{\pi }{2} (2n-1) ⇒ y: arithmetic sequence

So there are infinite solutions for y

The difference of two supplementary angles is 88 degrees. Find the measures of the angles.
Zina [12379]
The values of the two supplementary angles are 89 and 1.

To arrive at this, we set the angles as A and B.

We understand that A=B+88 and A+B=90 degrees. Solving this gives A as 89 and B as 1.

Angelica is working with function machines. She has the two machines at shown at the right. She wants to put them in order so th
Leona [12618]
To achieve the desired output, first use the machine with the function y = x^2 - 6, followed by the machine that computes y = sqrt(x-5). This way, when you input 6, the output from the first machine is calculated as x = 6, yielding y = 6^2 - 6, resulting in 30 as the input for the second machine. The second machine then processes this to provide the final output of sqrt(30 - 5), which equals sqrt(25) = 5. Alternatively, to obtain a negative final output, you should first utilize the machine with the function y = sqrt(x-5). Assuming you start with the value x = 9, the first machine computes this to sqrt(9-5), which is sqrt(4) = 2. Then, the second machine converts y to 2^2 - 6, leading to a result of 4 - 6 = -2.

Suppose the coordinate of a is 0, ar = 5, and at =7. What are the possible coordinates of the midpoint of rt ?
Zina [12379]

Here, 'a' relates to 0.

There are two scenarios for 'r' and 't'.

Scenario 1.

Both are positioned on the same side to the right of 'a'.

In this case, 'r' would equal 5, and 't' would equal 7.

The midpoint between 'r' and 't' is \frac{5+7}{2} =6.

Scenario 2.

If both are found to the left of 'a'.

Then 'r' would equal -5, while 't' would equal -7.

The midpoint is \frac{-7-5}{2} =-6.

Scenario 3.

If 'r' is right of 'a' and 't' is left of 'a'.

Thus 'r' equals 5 and 't' equals -7.

The midpoint is \frac{-7+5}{2}=-1.

Scenario 4.

If 'r' is left of 'a' while 't' is right of 'a'.

In this case, 'r' corresponds to -5 and 't' corresponds to 7.

The midpoint is \frac{-5+7}{2}=1.

The potential midpoint coordinates for 'rt' are 6, -6, 1, and -1.

Which input value produces the same output value for the two functions on the graph?
Inessa [12570]
This question is essentially asking for the x-coordinate where the two graphed functions intersect. The intersection point corresponds to the input value for which both functions yield the same output. Among the options given, the correct choice is the second one, with x = -2 being the input value that results in identical outputs for both functions. I hope this clarifies your question.
