If the total number of marbles is 102, Mark has 20 marbles while Don has 82 marbles.

To answer this word problem, read and understand first the problem.

"Don has 2 more than 4 times the number of marbles Mark has."

Out of this statement, we can come up with the expression,

Don = 2 + (4 x Mark)     (equation 1)

Next, the total number of marbles they have is 102.

Don + Mark = 102     (equation 2)

From this expression, if we subtract the number of marbles Mark has from the total number, we can get the number of marbles Don has.

Don = 102 - Mark    (equation 3)

Equating the 1st and 3rd equation,

Don = 2 + (4 x Mark) = 102 - Mark

2 + (4 x Mark) = 102 - Mark

let x = Mark's

2 + (4x) = 102 - x

4x + x = 102 - 2

5x = 100

x = 20

Mark has 20 marbles.

Meanwhile, use either the 1st or 3rd equation to know the number of marbles Don has.

Don = 102 - Mark    (equation 3)

Don = 102 - 20

Don = 82

Answer:

y=55x

given y=385

x=gallons of gas = 385/55 = 7 gallons

inverse function

y=55x

change x to y and y to x

x=55y

y=x/55

inverse function is x/55

The average American spent $8,508 on health care in 2011. The cost of health care is projected to rise about 5.8% per year for t
klio [65]
<h3>The projected amount the average American spent on health care in 2014  is $ 10075.91</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

The average American spent $8,508 on health care in 2011

The cost of health care is projected to rise about 5.8% per year for the years 2012-2022

<em><u>The increasing function is given as:</u></em>

y = a(1+r)^t

Where,

y is future value

a is initial value

r is growth rate in decimal

t is number of years

From given,

a = 8508

r = 5.8 \% = \frac{5.8}{100} = 0.058

t = 2011 to 2014 = 3 years

<em><u>Substituting the values, we get,</u></em>

y = 8508(1 + 0.058)^3\\\\y = 8508(1.058)^3\\\\y = 8508 \times 1.1842\\\\y = 10075.914 \approx 10075.91

Thus the projected amount the average American spent on health care in 2014  is $ 10075.91
