The time for the job for which the two company are the same is 16

<h3>How to form the equation and find the cost?</h3>

A yard cleanup service charges a $345 fee plus $16.25 per hour. Therefore,

using linear equation,

y = mx + c

where

  • y = total cost
  • x = time

Therefore,

y = 345 + 16.25x

Another cleanup service charges a $213 fee plus $24.50 per hour. Therefore,

y = 213 + 24.50x

Hence, the time when both cost are the same is as follows;

213 + 24.50x =  345 + 16.25x

213 - 345 = 16.25x - 24.50x

-132 = -8.25x

x = 132 / 8.25

x = 16

The interest rate r required to increase investment p to amount a in t years is found using the formula r=(a/p)^1-t - 1. Find th
valkas [14]
The interest rate would be 20%.

The formula is derived from the compound interest formula

A=p(1+r)^t.

We want to isolate r in this equation to rewrite the formula.  The first thing we would cancel, outside parentheses, would be p; divide both sides by p and we have

\frac{A}{p}=(1+r)^t

We want to cancel the exponent, t, next.  We can raise a power to its reciprocal to undo it; for example, raising a squared amount to the 1/2 power will undo the exponent.  We will raise both sides of this to the 1/t power:

(\frac{A}{p})^{\frac{1}{t}}=1+r

Now we cancel the 1 by subtracting, giving us

(\frac{A}{p})^{\frac{1}{t}}-1=r

Using this formula, we plug in 3600 for A, 2500 for p and 2 for t:

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

$14.64

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find how much he spent on the calculators

Divide the amount spent on calculators by the number of students

calculator cost/students

117.76/16=7.36

So, he spent 7.36 on each student so far.

To find how much he still has left to spend, subtract the amount he has spent from the total he can spend

total-$ spent on calculators

22-7.36=14.64

He can still spend $14.64 on each student

Hope this helps! :)
