Answer:

$270.00

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of house of babysitting and house is 3:2. If you change the 3 into a 15, you would have to change the 2 into a 10 because 3 x 5 = 15, so 2 x 5 = 10.

After you do those calculations you divide 15 by 5 and that is 3. You then multiply 60 by 3 = 180.

After that you have to divide 10 by 8 and you get 1.25. You then multiply 72 by 1.25 = 90.

Then you add 180 and 90 together to get $270.00

You earned $270

$72/8 = 9. 9•10=90

$60/5 = 12. 12•15=180

$180+$90= $270

At the beginning of an environmental study, a forest covered an area of 1500km^2. Since then, the area has decreased by 6.3% eac
geniusboy [140]

The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

y=1500(0.937)^t

Explanation:

An exponential function is of the form

y=a\times b^x, where a is the initial population, b is 1 plus the amount of yearly change, and x is the number of years.

For our problem, a, the initial population, is 1500.

The yearly change is 6.3%; 6.3% = 6.3/100 = 0.063.  Since it is decreasing, this is negative; 1+(-0.063) = 0.937.

We use t as the number of years.

This gives us

y=1500(0.937)^t

A picture is x+20 cm in width and 2x-10 cm in length. The frame is a
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

A = 1100cm^2

Step by step Explanation:

given the dimensions of width and length of the picture are x+20 by 2x-10 and the frame is a constant 5 cm wider from the edge of the picture to the frame, than the area of the frame is defined as (x+30)(2x)-(x+20)(2x-10) = 30x+200.

If the width is equal to the length which I assume is true if the width is constant.

than x+30=2x, which means x = 30.

if this is true than 30(30)+200 = 1100cm^2

The equation V = 16300 (0.94)^t represents the value (in dollars) of a car t years after its purchase. Use this equation to comp
Dafna1 [17]

Solution:

Given:

V=16300(0.94)^t

The value of a car after t - years will depreciate.

Hence, the equation given represents the value after depreciation over t-years.

To get the rate, we compare the equation with the depreciation formula.

\begin{gathered} A=P(1-r)^t \\ \text{where;} \\ P\text{ is the original value} \\ r\text{ is the rate} \\ t\text{ is the time } \end{gathered}

Hence,

\begin{gathered} V=16300(0.94)^t \\ A=P(1-r)^t \\  \\ \text{Comparing both equations,} \\ P=16300 \\ 1-r=0.94 \\ 1-0.94=r \\ r=0.06 \\ To\text{ percentage,} \\ r=0.06\times100=6\text{ \%} \\  \\ \text{Hence, } \\ P\text{ is the purchase price} \\ r\text{ is the rate} \end{gathered}

Therefore, the value of this car is decreasing at a rate of 6%. The purchase price of the car was $16,300.

What is the common rule for simplifying a negative exponent with a coefficient?<br> Ex: 3^-1
rjkz [21]
Anything to a negative power becomes the inverse with the coefficient to a positive power.
For example, 3^-1 becomes 1/3^1 or just 1/3.
3^-2 would be 1/3^2 or 1/9.
