The quantity of water the farming conglomerate would use 17 years from now is 65,708.11.

<h3>What is the amount of water that would be used 17 years from now?</h3>

The formula for calculating the amount of water that would be needed 1 years from now:

FV = P (1 + r)^N

FV = Future value
P = Present value
R = interest rate
N = number of years

13000 x 1.1^17 = 65,708.11

Lana makes $8 an hour plus $12 an hour for every hour of overtime. Overtime hours are any hours more than 40 hours for the week.

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

A: W = 8x

B: 12y + 320

C: 44

Step-by-step explanation:

A: Lana can make $8 an hour.

W = 8x

B: She makes $12 per hour for every hour of overtime. This means that she already worked 40 hours with regular pay. She has already made $320.

40 × $8 = $320

S = 12y + 320

C: Plug in the amount Lana earned into the second equation. The second equation will account for pay from both regular and overtime hours.

S = 12y + 320

368 = 12y + 320

368 - 320 = (12y + 320) - 320

48 = 12y

48/12 = (12y)/12

4 = y

y = 4

Lana worked 4 hours of overtime and 40 hours of regular hours. In total, she worked 44 hours.

4 + 40 = 44

Is the difference of two positive rational number always positive explain

Dominik [7]

No . . . while the difference represents the absolute magnitude between two numbers . . . for example . . .

The difference between 5 and 2 is . . . 3
The difference between 6.4 and 9.5 is . . . 3.1

. . . there is still the chance that the difference may be zero . . . in which case the difference is neither positive nor negative

. . . so in short . . . the answer is . . . NO

I’m stumped, can anyone please help me understand this

rodikova [14]

Answer:

B. Store T sells apples at the lowest rate

Step-by-step explanation:

Store R sells apples at $1.20 per pound.

Store S sells 4 pounds of apples at $5.00.

Store T sells 3 pounds of apples at $3.48.

To find the answer, you have to find the unit price for both Store S and Store T.

For Store S: 4 pounds = $5. Divide the cost by the pounds. This will give us $1.25 per pound.

For Store T: 3 pounds = $3.48. Same thing as Store S, divide the cost by the number of pounds. This will give us 1.16 per pound.

Now, we know the unit prices for each store. It's time to answer the question.

A. Store R sells apples at the lowest rate.

This is incorrect because the store that sells the apples at the lowest rate is Store T.

B. Store T sells the apples at the lowest rate.

This answer is correct, but I'll also take a look at the other two

C. Store S charges a lower rate for apples than Store T.

Again, this is incorrect because Store T sells apples at the lowest rate.

D. Store T charges the same rate for apples as Store R.

Nope, Store T sells the apples at a lower rate than Store R.

This means your answer will be B. Store T sells apples at the lowest rate.

<h2>I hope this helped you understand the question!</h2>
