> How many stamps did Mark have at first?

We know that Lisa has 1750 stamps and Mark has 480 fewer than this, therefore subtract 480 from 1750 to get the number of stamps that Mark had at first:

 

1750 – 480 = 1270 stamps

 

> How many stamps does Lisa have now?

Let us say that x = the number of stamps that Lisa gave to Mark, therefore we can create the equation:

Mark = 3 * Lisa

480 + x = 3 (1750 – x)

480 + x = 5250 – 3x

4x = 4770

x = 1,192.50 stamps

 

So Lisa has now left with:

1750 – 1192.50 = 557.5 stamps ~ 557 stamps or 558

$2,500 • 7.5% (or 0.075) = $187.50 (for one year).

For two years, the interested added onto the original price is $375 because $187.50 • 2 (years) = $375.

$2,500 + $375 = $2,875

The total of the cost of the surgery and the interest is $2,875.

Hope this helps! ❤️

Using the net below, find the surface area of the triangular prism.
Luden [163]

Answer:

Hi, there! The total surface area of that prism is 118 cm^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The three rectangles on the side are called the lateral area, and they add up to 98(I'm assuming you know how to find the area of a 2d shape), and as for the triangles on the sides, you can just use the formula which is b*h/2.

Hope this helps :)

On a coordinate plane, an exponential function approaches y = 0 in quadrant 2 and increases into quadrant 1. It crosses the y-ax
KIM [24]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=a*b^x - is a formula of exponential function

As we know the point (x=0; y=3) lies at the function's  graph.

So we have to put in formula f(x)=a*b^x   x=0  f(x)=y=3

3=a*b^0   (b^0=1) => 3=a*1 => 3=a

Find S11 for 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 +
Free_Kalibri [48]
Evaluating the given sequence, it is evident that the next number is twice the number prior to it. Thus, the given is a geometric sequence with first term (a1) equal to 1 and common ratio of 2. The geometric series may be calculated by the equation,
 
                                            Sn = a1 x (1 - r^n) / (1 - r)

where Sn is the sum of n terms in this case, n = 11. 
Substituting the known values, 
 
<span>                                      Sn = 1 x (1 - 2^11) / (1 - 2) = 2047
</span>
Thus, S11 is 2047.
