Carnie had an income of $29,520 last year. If the inflation rate is eight percent, what is her current purchasing power? Round to the nearest dollar.
Answers
Current purchasing power = $29,520 - 8% = $29,520 x (1 - 0.08) = $29,520 x 0.92 = $27,158.40
Therefore current purchasing power is $27,158 to the nearest dollar.
Her current purchasing power round to the nearest dollar is $27158
Percent inflation rate
Inflation is an increase in the purchasing power of an individual. Given the following parameters
Carnie's income last year = $29,520
If the inflation rate is eight percent, then her current purchasing power is expressed as:
Current purchasing power = 0.92 * $29,520
Current purchasing power = $27158.4
Her current purchasing power round to the nearest dollar is $27158

let the two numbers be x and y.
Multiply to 44. x*y = 44 ..........(a)
Add up to 12. x + y = 12 .........(b)
From (b)
y = 12 - x .......(c)
Substitute (c) into (a)
x*y = 44
x*(12 - x) = 44
12x - x² = 44
-x² + 12x = 44
-x² + 12x - 44 = 0.
Multiply both sides by -1
-1(-x² + 12x - 44) = -1*0
x² - 12x + 44 = 0.
This does not look factorizable, so let us just use quadratic formula
comparing to ax² + bx + c = 0, x² - 12x + 44 = 0, a = 1, b = -12, c = 44
x = (-b + √(b² - 4ac)) /2a or (-b - √(b² - 4ac)) /2a
x = (-(-12) + √((-12)² - 4*1*44) )/ (2*1)
x = (12 + √(144 - 176) )/ 2
x = (12 + √-32 )/ 2
√-32 = √(-1 *32) = √-1 * √32 = i * √(16 *2) = i*√16 *√2 = i*4*√2 = 4i√2
Where i is a complex number. Note the equation has two values. We shall include the second, that has negative sign before the square root.
x = (12 + √-32 )/ 2 or (12 - √-32 )/ 2
x = (12 + 4i√2 )/ 2 (12 - 4i√2 )/ 2
x = 12/2 + (4i√2)/2 12/2 - (4i√2)/2
x = 6 + 2i√2 or 6 - 2i√2
Recall equation (c):
y = 12 - x, When x = 6 + 2i√2, y = 12 - (6 + 2i√2) = 12 - 6 - 2i√2 = 6 - 2i√2
When x = 6 - 2i√2, y = 12 - (6 - 2i√2) = 12 - 6 + 2i√2 = 6 + 2i√2
x = 6 + 2i√2, y = 6 - 2i√2
x = 6 - 2i√2, y = 6 + 2i√2
Therefore the two numbers that multiply to 44 and add up to 12 are:
6 + 2i√2 and 6 - 2i√2

Answer: A person who Weighs 160 pounds should take in approximately 1600 calories a day.

= 7/8 pounds
Weight of the container in which Mr. Sand places the cube = 1/16 pounds
Weight of the cubed cheese and container together = 1 1/4 pounds
= 5/4 pounds
Then
Amount of cubed cheese placed by Mr. Sands = (5/4 - 1/16) pounds
= (20 - 1)/16 pounds
= 19/16 pounds
So
The quantity of more cheese that
Mr.Sands need to add to the scale = (7/4 - 19/16) pounds
= (28 - 19)/16 pounds
= 9/16 pounds.
From the above deduction we can easily conclude that Mr. Sand needs to add 9/16 pounds of cubed cheese to fullfil the order placed by Veronica.
Answer: 9/16
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we must find the answer to the hidden question: How much cheese did Mr. Sand put in the container without the weight of the container? We can rename 1 1/4 to 1 4/16, so 1 4/16 - 1/16 = 1 3/16
Now we must find the amount of cheese that needs to be added. We can rename 1 3/4 to 1 12/16 by multiplying it by 4/4. 1 12/16 - 1 3/16 = 9/16
9/16 pound of cheese should be added to get the amount Veronica asked for.
