Members of a college chemistry department agree to contribute equal amounts of money to make up a scholarship fund of $280. Then
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

7 members

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets say that the department has n members. If each member contributes with an equal amount x and make a total of $280, we know that:

n*x = 280

Where each one colaborated with:

n*x/n = 280/n

Or what is the same that: (as the n on the left eliminate themselves)

x = 280/n (*)

Now the department hires 3 more members, so we now have n+3 members. And we know that the pass from contributing x to contribute $30 less, it is, x-30 (I omit the $ symbol for simplicity). So, know we have:

x-30 = 280/(n+3)

We can replace x here by the formulation of x we did in the (*) equation:

( 280/n) - 30 = 280/(n+3)

using common denominator:

( 280/n) - 30 n/n = 280/(n+3)

( 280 - 30 n)/n = 280/(n+3)

Cross multiplying the denominators:

( 280 - 30 n)*(n+3) = 280*(n)

280n - 30n^2 + 840 - 90n = 280n

Subtracting 280 n in both sides:

30n^2 + 840 - 90n = 0

Dividing both sides by 30:

-n^2 - 3n + 28 = 0

Factorizing this term (you can notice the factor immediately or solving with baskara resolution, I omit the baskara for simplicity):

-(n + 7)(n - 4) =0

So, n is equal to 4 and -7. As we are dealing with people we can not have -7 people, so we keep only n=4.

So, previous the new hiring there were 4 members, now there are 7.

The used to collaborate with 280/4 = $70, now the collaborate with 280/7=$40, and we see the collaboration decreased in $30.

Naty bought a dress for $24.95 and a skirt for $14.95.
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

Total items = $39.90

Sales tax amount = $3.7905

Total cost = $43.691

The clerk's error is using 9.5 as sales tax amount instead of finding 9.5% of the total items

Step-by-step explanation:

Dress = $24.95

Skirt = $14.95

steps the clerk completed.

Step 1: 24.95 + 14.95 = 39.90

Step 2: 39.90 +9.5 = 49.40

Correct steps:

Total items = dress + skirt

= $24.95 + $14.95

= $39.90

Sales tax = 9.5%

Sales tax amount = 9.5% of total

= 9.5/100 × $39.90

= 0.095 × 39.90

= $3.7905

Total cost = Total + sales tax amount

= $39.90 + $3.7905

= $43.6905

To the nearest hundredth

= $43.691

Sales tax is the amount of money imposed by government on the sales of some items

Total cost is the cost of all items including sales tax

Can someone please answer this for me i cant figure it out.
Jlenok [28]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

\displaystyle x^{\frac{2}{3}}

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

The rules of exponents tell you ...

... (a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c) . . . . . . applies inside parentheses

... (a^b)^c = a^(b·c) . . . . . . . . applies to the overall expression

The Order of Operations tells you to evaluate inside parentheses first. Doing that, you have ...

... x^(4/3)·x^(2/3) = x^((4+2)/3) = x^2

Now, you have ...

... (x^2)^(1/3)

and the rule of exponents tells you to multiply the exponents.

... = x^(2·1/3) = x^(2/3)

WORTH 25 POINTS!
Nina [5.8K]

The equation we can use is

3 + 1/4c = 9

To find the total number of pieces, we would just solve the equation.

3 + 1/4c = 9

3 - 3 +1/4c = 9 - 3

1/4c = 6

inverse of division is multiputcation

4/1 *1/4c = 6*4

c = 24

There were 24 pieces of cake in total.
