Jorge mowed 18 lawns.

Let the number of lawns mowed by Jorge =x

So according to the question

Number of lawns mowed by sandra = x/3

Number of lawns mowed by Danny =x/2

Number of lawns mowed by Valeria =16

sum of total lawns mowed = lawns mowed by Jorge + lawns mowed by sandra + lawns mowed by Danny + lawns mowed by Valeria.

$x+\frac{x}{3} +\frac{x}{2} +16=49$

taking LCM as 6 and solving further we get

$\frac{6x+2x+3x+96}{6} =49$

By cross Multiplying we get

11x+96=294

11x=198

Solving further for x,

x=198/11

x=18

Therefore, the number of lawns mowed by Jorge is 18 .

What is the x-intercept of the equation y=-5x+1,450?

ladessa [460]

Substitute the value for y as 450

450=-5x+1

Solve for x

450-1=-5x

449=-5x

89.8=-x

x=-89.8

A large tank is filled to capacity with 600 gallons of pure water. brine containing 4 pounds of salt per gallon is pumped into t

nignag [31]

If $A(t)$ is the amount of salt in the tank at time $t$ , then the rate at which the amount of salt in the tank changes is given by

$\dfrac{\mathrm dA(t)}{\mathrm dt}=\dfrac{4\text{ lbs}}{1\text{ gal}}\dfrac{6\text{ gal}}{1\text{ min}}-\dfrac{A(t)\text{ lbs}}{600\text{ gal}}\dfrac{6\text{ gal}}{1\text{ min}}$
$\dfrac{\mathrm dA}{\mathrm dt}=24\dfrac{\text{lb}}{\text{min}}-\dfrac{A(t)}{100}\dfrac{\text{lb}}{\text{min}}$

Let's drop the units for now. We have

$\dfrac{\mathrm dA(t)}{\mathrm dt}+\dfrac{A(t)}{100}=24$
$e^{t/100}\dfrac{\mathrm dA(t)}{\mathrm dt}+e^{t/100}\dfrac{A(t)}{100}=24e^{t/100}$
$\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dt}\left[e^{t/100}A(t)\right]=24e^{t/100}$
$e^{t/100}A(t)=\displaystyle24\int e^{t/100}\,\mathrm dt$
$e^{t/100}A(t)=2400e^{t/100}+C$
$A(t)=2400+Ce^{-t/100}$

We're given that the water is pure at the start, so $A(0)=0$ , giving

$A(0)=0=2400+Ce^{-0/100}\implies C=-2400$

So the amount of salt in the tank (in lbs) at time $t$ is

$A(t)=2400\left(1-e^{-t/100}\right)$

Please help me with this

C. 3/5
The definition of terminating decimal is that it’s an answer that come to an end after a few decimal places. When looking at a b and d their denominators are 7 and 3 which will give answers with a never ending amount of decimals. This makes them nonterminal decimals. So the answer is c because it has a decimal place and it can give a final answer
