I will rewrite the question for better understanding:

Ashley recently opened a store that uses only natural ingredients. She wants to advertise her products by distributing bags of samples in her neighborhood. It takes Ashley 2/3 of a minute to prepare one bag. It takes each of her friends 75% longer to prepare a bag. How many hours will it take Ashley and 4 of her friends to prepare 1575 bags of samples?

Answer:

  • <em><u>5.3 hours</u></em>

Explanation:

<u>1) Time it takes Ashley to preprate one bag: </u>

  • 2/3 min

<u>2) Time it takes each friend of Ashley: 75% more than 2/3 min</u>

  • 75% × 2/3 min = 0.75 × 2/3 min = 3/4 × 2/3 min= 2/4 min = 1/2 min = 0.5 min
  • 2/3 min + 1/2 min = 7/6 min

<u>3) Time it takes Ashley and the 4 friends working along to prepare one bag:</u>

  • Convert each time into a rate, since you can set that the total rate of Ashley along with her four friends is equal to the sum of each rate:

  • Rate of Ashley: 1 bag / (2/3) min = 3/2 bag/min

  • Rate of each friend: 1 bag / (7/6) min = 6/7 bag/min

  • Rate of Ashley and 4 friends = 3/2 bag/min + 4 × 6/7 bag/min = (3/2 +24/7) bag/min = 69/14 bag/min

<u>4) Time of prepare 1575 bags of samples:</u>

  • time = number of bags / number of bags per min = 1,575 bags / (69/14) bags/min = 319.56 min

<u>5) Convert minutes to hours:</u>

  • 356.56 min × 1 hour / 60 min = 5.3 hours

Answer:

2678.06

Step-by-step explanation:

Annual is once every year and 3.5% of 2,500.00 is

3.5% ×2,500.00 = 87.5

so in the first year Deirdre has 2500.00 + 87.5 = 2587.5

then you find 3.5% of 2587.5 which is 90.56250000000001

but since it's money we round it to 90.56

2587.5+90.56= 2678.06

P= 14413.49<br> R= 0.0015<br> T= 36<br><br> What is I= Prt
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer: I = 778. 33

Step-by-step explanation:

P= 14413.49

R= 0.0015

T= 36

The formula for calculating interest is given as :

I = PRT

substituting the given values , we have :

I = 14413.49 x 0.0015 x 36

I = 778.32846

I = 778. 33

Write an equation for the line perpendicular to the line y= -2/3+7 which passes through the point (-5,6)
zysi [14]
Y = -2/3x + 7.....the slope here is -2/3. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All tht means is take the original slope, flip it, and change the sign. So we take -2/3....flip it making it -3/2.....change the sign making it 3/2. So ur perpendicular line will have a slope of 3/2.

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3/2
(-5,6)....x = -5 and y = 6
now sub and find b, the y int
6 = 3/2(-5) + b
6 = -15/2 + b
6 + 15/2 = b
12/2 + 15/2 = b
27/2 = b
so ur perpendicular equation is : y = 3/2x + 27/2 <==
