Samantha sends her son, barry, to a preschool center on certain days. The cost of preschool is $45 per day along with a fixed mo

nthly charge of $70. Last month, samantha paid a total of $880 to the preschool center. Let d represent the number of days barry spent at the preschool center last month. Which equation represents this situation, and how many days did barry attend preschool last month?

45d+70=$880. $880-70=$810. 810/45=18

Answer:

<em>The equation is: $45d+70=880$ </em>

<em>Barry attended preschool for 18 days last month.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of days, Barry spent at the preschool center last month is $d$ .

The cost of preschool is $45 per day. So, the total cost for $d$ days $= \$45d$

Fixed monthly charge is $70.

So, <u>the total charge of last month</u> $= (45d+70)\ dollars$

Given that, Samantha paid a total of $880 to the preschool center last month.

So, the equation that represents the situation: $45d+70=880$

Solving the above equation, we will get........

$45d+70=880\\ \\ 45d=880-70\\ \\ 45d=810\\ \\ d=\frac{810}{45}=18$

So, Barry attended preschool for 18 days last month.

Money : price = quantity

1) 3 : 0.5 = 6 Kg
2) 3 : 1 = 3 Kg
3) 3 : 1.5 = 2 Kg
4) 3 : 2 = 1.5 Kg
5) 3 : 3 = 1 Kg

Find the LCD of the fractions, and then simplify the expression. Assume that no denominator equals zero. 5/(3x^2y) - 4/(6xy^3

tamaranim1 [39]

The LCD = 6x^2y^3 ( because LCD of 3 and 6 = 6, LCD of x^2 and x = x^2 and LCD of y and y^3 = y^3)

now divide 3x^2y into the LCD then multiply this by 5 to get the first term in the numerator and do similar process to get second term, so we get:-

5(2y^2) - 4(x)
------------------
6x^2y^3

= 2( 5y^2 - 2x)
-----------------
6x^2y^3

= 5y^2 - 2x
-----------
3x^2y^3

2 points) Sometimes a change of variable can be used to convert a differential equation y′=f(t,y) into a separable equation. One

Stells [14]

$y'=(t+y)^2-1$

Substitute $u=t+y$ , so that $u'=y'$ , and

$u'=u^2-1$

which is separable as

$\dfrac{u'}{u^2-1}=1$

Integrate both sides with respect to $t$ . For the integral on the left, first split into partial fractions:

$\dfrac{u'}2\left(\frac1{u-1}-\frac1{u+1}\right)=1$

$\displaystyle\int\frac{u'}2\left(\frac1{u-1}-\frac1{u+1}\right)\,\mathrm dt=\int\mathrm dt$

$\dfrac12(\ln|u-1|-\ln|u+1|)=t+C$

Solve for $u$ :

$\dfrac12\ln\left|\dfrac{u-1}{u+1}\right|=t+C$

$\ln\left|1-\dfrac2{u+1}\right|=2t+C$

$1-\dfrac2{u+1}=e^{2t+C}=Ce^{2t}$

$\dfrac2{u+1}=1-Ce^{2t}$

$\dfrac{u+1}2=\dfrac1{1-Ce^{2t}}$

$u=\dfrac2{1-Ce^{2t}}-1$

Replace $u$ and solve for $y$ :

$t+y=\dfrac2{1-Ce^{2t}}-1$

$y=\dfrac2{1-Ce^{2t}}-1-t$

Now use the given initial condition to solve for $C$ :

$y(3)=4\implies4=\dfrac2{1-Ce^6}-1-3\implies C=\dfrac3{4e^6}$

so that the particular solution is

$y=\dfrac2{1-\frac34e^{2t-6}}-1-t=\boxed{\dfrac8{4-3e^{2t-6}}-1-t}$
