Plsss help no one answered the other times I put this question

svetlana [45]

Answer:

a) The equation (10s + 8w) represents the calories Bridget ate on Monday and the equation (20s + w) represents the calories she ate the next day.

b) The number of calories in each strawberry is 4 and the number of calories in each vanilla wafer cookie is 19. The solution is s= 4 and w = 19.

Step-by-step explanation:

For part A, Bridget ate 10 strawberries and 8 vanilla wafer cookies on Monday. Since the the number of calories in a strawberry is s and the number of calories in a vanilla wafer cookie is w , the number of calories Bridget ate on Monday is 10s + 8w. The next day, Bridget ate 20 strawberries and 1 vanilla wafer cookie. Hence, the number of calories Bridget ate on the next day is 20s + w.

For part B,

we will create two different simultaneous equations.

Equation 1: 10s + 8w = 192

Equation 2: 20s + w = 99

We need to find one of the terms first to solve the other term. For this case, I will solve for w first.

Multiply the first equation by 2.

Equation 3: 20s + 16w = 192*2 = 384.

Now, subtract equation 2 from this new equation.

Equation 4:

(20s + 16w) - (20s + w) = 384 - 99

20s + 16w - 20s - w = 285

15w = 285

This leaves only w left and we can solve w.

w = 285 / 15 = 19

Now, we can solve for s using equation 2.

20s + 19 = 99

20s = 99-19 = 80

Hence,

s = 80/20 = 4

Jules has 1200 and is spending 40 per week. kelsey has 400 and is saving 50 a week. in how many weeks, will jules and kelsey hav

expeople1 [14]

After x weeks:
Jules will have: 1,200 + 40 x.
Kelsey will have: 400 + 50 x.
If we want to know in how many weeks will they have the same amount of money, we will make an equation:
400 + 50 x = 1,200 + 40 x
50 x - 40 x = 1,200 - 400
10 x = 800
x = 800 : 10
x = 80
Answer: In 80 weeks they will have the same amount of money.

An amount of $4000 was deposted in a bank of 7% compounded quarterly for 2 years. The rate the increased to 10% and was compound

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

$5599.20

Step-by-step explanation:

The quarterly interest rate for the first two years was ...

7%/4 = 0.0175

So, the multiplier each quarter for those 8 quarters was 1+0.0175 = 1.0175. At the end of the first 8 quarters, the account value had been multiplied by ...

1.0175^8

For the next 8 quarters, the quarterly interest rate was 10%/4 = 0.025. So at the end of those 8 quarters, the balance had been multiplied by ...

1.025^8

Then the balance at the end of 4 years was ...

$4000(1.0175^8)(1.025^8) ≈ $5599.20

The balance was $5599.20.
