Answer:

Amount of money she spend on CDs: $185

Amount of money she is going to be in her savings account: $555

Step-by-step explanation:

She sold 37 pairs of earrings with each of them costing 20 dollars.

That means she made 20(37)=740 dollars.

She is going to use 1/4 of 740 dollars to buy new CDS. This means she is going to use 740/4 =185 dollars on CDs.

So what money is left from 740 dollars after spending 185 dollars?

740-185=555 dollars

She is going to put 555 dollars into savings.

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Well the first step is to add all the prices up which adds up to $6.80 and multiply it by 1.15. Since the 1 is for the original price which is 6.8 and the .15 is for the tip. You’re welcome and have a nice day

12) Write the equation of a rational function

aev [14]

Answer:

$\frac{4(x - 5)(x + 7)(x - 12)}{(x + 1)(x)(x - 12)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational function is

$\frac{p(x)}{q(x)}$

where q(x) doesn't equal zero.

If p is a asymptote, or hole at that value, then we will use

$(x - p)$

Step 1: We have asymptote as 0 and -1 so our denomiator will include

$(x - 0)(x - ( - 1)$

Which is

$(x)(x + 1)$

So our denomator so far is

$\frac{p(x)}{x(x + 1)}$

Step 2: Find Holes.

Since 12 is the value of the hole,

$(x - 12)$

is a the binomial.

This will be both on the numerator and denomator so qe have

$\frac{(x - 12)}{x(x + 1)(x - 12)}$

Step 3: Put the x intercepts in the numerator.

Since 5 and -7 is the intercepts,

$\frac{(x - 12)(x - 5)(x + 7)}{x(x + 1)(x - 12)}$

Step 4: Horinzontal Asymptotes,

Multiply the numerator and denomiator out fully,

$\frac{ {x}^{3} - 10 {x}^{2} - 59x + 420 }{ {x}^{3} - 12 {x}^{2} + x - 12}$

Take a L

look at the coefficients,

Notice they have the same degree,3, this means if we divide the leading coefficents, we will get our horinzonral asymptote.

Multiply the numerator by 4.

$\frac{4(x - 12)(x - 5)(x - 7)}{x(x + 1)(x - 12)}$

Above is the function,

Ivan has 6 times as many blue beads as red beads. he has 49 red and blue beads in all. how many blue beads does Ivan have

salantis [7]

Let

x--------> the number of blue beads

y--------> the number of red beads

we know that

$x+y=49$

$x=49-y$ -------> equation $1$

$x=6y$ ------> equation $2$

equate equation $1$ and equation $2$

$49-y=6y\\ 6y+y=49\\ 7y=49\\\\ y=\frac{49}{7} \\ \\ y=7$

find the value of x

$x=6*7\\ x=42$

therefore

the answer is

Ivan has $42$ $blue beads$
