The Solution.
In 1966, which is the initial year(t); t = 0, and minimum wage(y), y = $1.25
Similarly.
In 2015, t = 49 years , (that is, 1966 to 2015), and y = $8.75
The rate of growth to the nearest percent is
Substituting into the formula above, we get
Hence, the correct answer is 15%
A squared + b squared = c squared
42.5p=c
You get you get the number 42.5 since you know 10 people paid 425, you would divide 425 by 10 to know how much every person paid.
M is representing the amount of money each person paid
(M)10=425
M=425/10
M=42.50 <- since it’s about money
Each person paid $42.50
The cost for 15 people is $637.50.
42.5p=c
42.5(15)=637.5
Answer:
The original length was 41 inches and the original width was 16 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the original length of the piece of metal
y ----> the original width of the piece of metal
we know that
When squares with sides 5 in long are cut from the four corners and the flaps are folded upward to form an open box
The dimensions of the box are
The volume of the box is equal to
so
simplify
-----> equation A
Remember that
The piece of metal is 25 in longer than it is wide
so
----> equation B
substitute equation B in equation A
solve for y
Solve the quadratic equation by graphing
using a graphing tool
The solution is y=16
see the attached figure
Find the value of x
therefore
The original length was 41 inches and the original width was 16 inches
