Answer:

salary=120000

1/4×120000=30000= money spent

remainder=120000- 30000

= 90000

money spent on clothing =1/2×90000

=45000

Explanation: If his salary is $120,000 and 1/4 is used on food he has a remaining of $80,000. He uses 1/2 on clothing so he has a remainder of $40,000 so now we know that he used $40,000 on clothing

Answer: $40,000

Hope this helps you! :D

Answer: 102 foot / feet tall

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to find the unit rate . . . what is 24 divided by 20 ? 1.2/1

Second, multiply . . . what is 1.2 x 85 ? 102

( sorry if this is wrong - I forgot how to do the second part for a sec )

What is an equation of the line through (0,-3) with slope 2\5
baherus [9]
M=2/5  , (0,3)
use y= mx+c ,   find c first.
-3 = (2/5) 0 + c
c = -3
Thus the equation will be y=(2/5)x - 3.
or in some case,
(y1-y)=m(x1-x)
(-3-y)=(2/5)(0-x)

what effect does doubling the radius of a cone have on the volume of the cone if the height remains the same
Butoxors [25]
V=(1/3)hpir^2
lets say this is original, undoubled volume
so o=v=(1/3)hpir^2

so for new volume, or n, that is r to 2r, doubled radius
n=(1/3)hpi(2r)^2
n=(1/3)hpi4r^2
n=4((1/3)hpir^2)
remmember that o=(1/3)hpir^2
n=4(o)

it is 4 times the old one

Find the optimal solution for the following problem. (Round your answers to 3 decimal places.)
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

x=2.125

y=0

C=19.125

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we can use a graphical method, we start first noticing the restrictions x\geq 0 and  y\geq 0, which restricts the solution to be in the positive quadrant. Then we plot the first restriction 8x+10y\leq 17 shown in purple, then we can plot the second one 11x+12y\leq 25 shown in the second plot in green.

The intersection of all three restrictions is plotted in white on the third plot. The intersection points are also marked.

So restrictions intersect on (0,0), (0,1.7) and (2.215,0). Replacing these coordinates on the objective function we get C=0, C=11.9, and C=19.125 respectively. So The function is maximized at (2.215,0) with C=19.125.

If the difference of two numbers is even then so is their sum.
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer and explanation:

Statement - If the difference of two numbers is even then so is their sum.

Let the two even numbers be '2m' and '2n' with m and n are integers.

The difference of two number is

2m-2n=2(m-n)

Now, The sum of the numbers is

2m+2n=2(m+n)

Let m+n=k where k is an integer

Then, 2m+2n=2k which is also an even number as 2 is multiplied with it.

So, If the difference of two numbers is even then so is their sum.

For example -

Let two even number 2 and 4.

The difference is 4-2=2, 2 is even.

The sum is 4+2=6, 6 is even.
