22+10x=10+13x
13x-10x=22-10
3x=12
x=4

<em>Answer:4 weeks</em>

Lets say Y is the amount they will save.
So Melinda's savings could be described by the equation Y=22+10X, where X is the number of weeks. The same goes to George, but his equation would be Y=10+13X.

To save the same amount, their equations must match:
22+10X = 10+13X
Solving this, one gets
12 = 3x
=> 4=x
So the answer is 4 weeks.

On a coordinate plane, 2 polygons are shown. Polygon A B C D has points (1, negative 6), (5, negative 6), (6, negative 2), and (
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

The correct option is;

Use a scale factor of 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters given are;

A = (1, -6)

B = (5, -6)

C = (6, -2)

D = (0, -2)

A'' = (1.5, 4)

B'' = (3.5, 4)

C'' = (4, 2)

D'' = ( 1, 2)

We note that the length of side AB in polygon ABCD = √((5 -1)² + (-6 - (-6))²) = 4

The length of side A''B'' in polygon A''B''C''D'' = √((3.5 -1.5)² + (4 - 4)²) = 2

Which gives;

AB/A''B'' = 4/2 = 2

Similarly;

The length of side BC in polygon ABCD = √((6 -5)² + (-2 - (-6))²) = √17

The length of side B''C'' in polygon A''B''C''D'' = √((4 -3.5)² + (2 - 4)²) = (√17)/2

Also we have;

The length of side CD in polygon ABCD = √((6 -0)² + (-2 - (-2))²) = 6

The length of side C''D'' in polygon A''B''C''D'' = √((4 -1)² + (2 - 2)²) = 3

For the side DA  and D''A'', we have;

The length of side DA in polygon ABCD = √((1 -0)² + (-6 - (-2))²) = √17

The length of side D''A'' in polygon A''B''C''D'' = √((1.5 -1)² + (4 - 2)²) = (√17)/2

Therefore the Polygon A B C D can be obtained from polygon A''B''C''D'' by multiplying each side of polygon A''B''C''D'' by 2

The correct option is therefore;

Use a scale factor of 2.

Sarah is driving. Her distance in km from Tempe after t hours of driving is given by: x = D(t) = 13 + 57t
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

The solutions for your four question problem are:

a) t = D^-1(x) =  (1/57)*x -(13/57)

b) t = D^-1(x) =  1 h

c) D^-1(x) represents time.

d) The number of hours of driving needed for Sarah to be x km from Tempe. (option (c))

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Determine a formula in terms of x for: t = D^-1(x)

The distance in km from Tempe after t hours of driving is given by

x = D(t) = 13 + 57t.

We just need to find the value  t function of x

x = 13 + 57*t

x -13 =  57*t

57*t  = x -13

t = (1/57)*x -(13/57)

We can see the plots of both equation in the picture below.

b) Compute D^-1(70)

Once we find the expression for D^-1(x)

We substitute for x = 70 km

t = D^-1(x) =  (1/57)*x -(13/57)

t = D^-1(x) =  (1/57)*(70) -(13/57)

t = D^-1(x) =  (70/57) -(13/57)

t = D^-1(x) =  (1.228) -(0.228)

t = D^-1(x) = 1 h

c) In the expression D^-1(x) :  what quantity (distance or time) does the x represent?  what quantity (distance or time) does the entire D^-1(x) represent?

x represents Distance in both equations (D(t), and D^-1(x))

t represents Time in both equations (D(t), and D^-1(x))

Since t = D^-1(x),

D^-1(x) represents time.

d) Which of the following statements best describes D^-1(x)?

The number of hours of driving needed for Sarah to be x km from Tempe.

Since, t = D^-1(x), and t represents the amount of time elapsed since Sarah, parted from Tempe, the correct answer is option (c)

The expression for D^-1(x) can be found in the previous answers

t = D^-1(x) =  (1/57)*x -(13/57)

The input is x (distance) and the output is t (time)

Volume of the orange juice in the carton = 10*6*8 = 480 cm^3

when its turned on its side  we have the equation 6*20*h = 480   where h = required height
h = 480 / (6*20) = 480 / 120 = 4 cms

answer = 4 cm
