Answer:

9 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by writing an equation.

The total bill is 134.03. The bill is totally paid by Marcus and the other guests. This will go on the other side of the equation.

Since we don't know how many guests there were, we can use variable x to represent the value that we're trying to find.

So here is our equation.

134.04 = 20.45 + 12.62x

Now, just solve for x, or isolate x.

Subtract 20.45 from both sides.

134.04 - 20.45 = 12.62x

Divide both sides by 12.62.

113.59/12.62 = x

Simplify.

x = 9

Since x is 9, we know that there were 9 other people at the dinner party.

2 angles are supplementary. The measure of one angle is one-third of the other. Find the measure of BOTH angles.
morpeh [17]

Answer:

45° and 135°

Step-by-step explanation:

let one angle be "x" and the other be "y"

Angles which are supplementary total to 180°. This can be represented with the equation:

x + y = 180

If angle "x" is a third of angle "y", the situation is represented with this equation:

(1/3)x = y

Since fractions are difficult to work with, multiply the whole equation by 3.

(1/3)x = y   <= X 3

x = 3y

Use the equations x+y=180 and x=3y.

You can substitute x=3y into x+y=180.

x + y = 180

(3y) + y = 180    <=combine like terms

4y = 180   <=isolate y by dividing both sides by 4

y = 45

Substitute y=45 itno the equation x+y=180 to find x.

x + y = 180

x + 45 = 180   <=isolate x by subtracting 45 from both sides

x = 135

Therefore the angles are 45° and 135°.

Someone please help
KIM [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential function representing final amount with compound interest compounded continuously,

A=Pe^{rt}

Here, A = Final amount

P = principal amount

r = Rate of interest

t = Duration of investment

For P = $9600

r = 6%

A = 2 × 9600 = $19200

By substituting these values in the formula,

19200=9600(e)^{0.06\times t}

2=e^{0.06t}

ln(2)=ln(e^{0.06t})

ln(2) = 0.06t

t = \frac{0.693147}{0.06}

t = 11.55245

t ≈ 11.5525 years

Any amount will get doubled (with the same rate of interest and duration of investment) in the same time.

Therefore, $960000 will get doubled in 11.5525 years.
