1. 12000(1 - n/5) = 2,400
     12000 - 2400n = 2400
      - 2400n + 12000 - 12000 = 2400 - 12000
      - 2400 = - 9600
             n = 4, After 4 years the scanner will be replaced.



2.  Let x represents Michael age in years now.
     
                            
                          Now           4years later  
                            
Michael                 x                 x + 4

      
John                      x - 17           (x - 17) + 4


                              x + 4 + x - 17 + 4 = 49
                               x + 4 + x - 13 = 49
                                2x - 9 = 49
                                 2x - 9 + 9 = 49 + 9
                                            2x = 58
                                     (1/2)(2x) = (1/2)(58)
                                                x = 29, Michaels age is 29


3. Brady speed 1   Rate(mph)       Time(hours)           Distance(miles)
                                17                     t                               17 t
     Brady speed 2    22                     4 - t                         22(4 - t)total distance

The total distance he rode  17t + 22(4 - t) = 70

The total distance = 70 miles


                                         showing work:  
                                           17t + 22(4 - t) = 70
                                            17t + 88 - 22t = 70
                                             - 5t + 88 = 70
                                              - 5t + 88 - 88 = 70 - 88
                                               - 5t  = - 18
                                                t = 3.6, Brady rode 17(mph) for 3.6(hrs).


4. t = the price of 1 shirt
     4t - 39.58 = 52.22
     4t - 39.58 = 52.22 + 39.58
      4t  + 0 = 91.80
    (1/4)(4t) = (1/4)(91.80)
               t = 22.95, price of 1 shirt was $22.95


5. Let M represent number of months.
      3.5m + 90 = 132
       3.5m + 90 - 90 = 132 - 90
        3.5m = 42
    (1/3.5)(3.5m) = (1/3.5)(42)
                      m = 12, the boy will grow 132cm tall, 12 months from now



6.   Let N represent given number
         n + 1/6n + (2 1/2)n + 7 = 12 1/2
          n ( 1 + 1/6 + 5/2) + 7  = 12 1/2
          n(6/6 + 1/6 + 15/6) + 7 = 12 1/2
           n(22/6 + 7 - 7 = 12 1/2
            11/3n + 7 - 7 = 12 1/2 - 7
              11/3n + 0 = 5 1/2
              11/3n = 5 1/2
               3/11.11/3 = 3/11.11/2
                 1n  = 3/2
                    n = 1 1/2, is the number


7. let X represents the first number, then 33 - x represents the other # since their sum is 33
     X - (33 - x) = 2
      X + ( - (33 - x)) = 2
      X + ( -33) + X = 2
       2x + (- 33) = 2
        2x + (- 33) + 33 = 2 + 33
        2x + 0 = 35
        1/2 * 2x = 1/2 * 35
         1x = 35/2
          x = 17 1/2

33 - x = 33 - (17 1/2) = 15 1/2
                     {17 1/2,  15 1/2}
                                 



8. Let T represents number of tokens in machine A. Then 1/2T represents the number of tokens in machine B, and 3/4T represents the number of tokens in machine C.

   T + 1/2T + 3/4T = 18,324
    9/4T = 18, 324
          T = 8, 144
Machine A took 8,144T, Machine B 4,072T, Machine C 6,108T



9.  Let Z represents the cost of a pencil in dollars. Then, the cost of a pen in dollars is Z + 0.11

   250(Z + Z + 0.11) = 42.5
    250(2Z + 0.11) = 42.5
    500Z + 27.5 = 42.5
    500Z + 27.5 + ( - 27.5) = 42.5 + ( -27.5)
     500Z + 0 = 15
     500Z = 15
      500Z/500 + 15/500
             Z = $0.03, a pencil costs, and  a pens cost $0.14


10. Let R represents speed in mph of faster car, Then r - 7 represents speed in mph of slow car.

 5 1/2(r) + 5 1/2(r - 7) = 599.5
  5 1/2(r + r - 7) = 599.5
 5 1/2(2r - 7) = 599.5
 11/2 (2r - 7) = 599.5
  2/11 * 11/2 (2r - 7) = 2/11 * 599.5
  1 * (2r - 7) = 1199/11
   2r - 7 = 109
   2r  - 7 + 7 = 109 + 7
   2r + 0 = 116
   2r = 116
 1/2 * 2r = 1/2 * 116
          1r = 58
             r =58

Faster car average speed is 58mph
Slower car average speed is 51mph

Distance = rate * time
 d = 51 * 5 1/2
  d = 51 * 11/2
   d = 280.5


Slower car travel 280.5 miles in 5 1/2hrs
d = 58 * 5 1/2
d = 58 * 11/2
d = 319           or  599.5 - 280.5 = 319


Faster car travel 319 miles in 5 1/2 hrs




The slower car travels 280.5 miles in 5 1/2hrs. remainder of trips for both vehicle is 38.5 miles, because, 319 - 280.5 = 38.5


distance = rate * time
38.5 = 51 (t)
1/51(38.5) = 1/51(51)(t)
38.5/51 = 1t
77/102 = t, This time is in hours. To convert to minutes, multiply by 60 minutes per hour
77/102 * 60 = 77/51 * 30 = 2310/51 = 45, The slower car will arrive at about 45 minutes after the first car.



Hope this helps!!!


Next time please ask for help in chunks!! Try for yourself.. this is a lot...

Between 1998 and 2018, inflation for prices of goods and services has been about 51%. Suppose a salon charged $18 for a basic ha
Anestetic [448]

Answer: $22.12

Step-by-step explanation:

I just did the compound interest formula which is

starting amount * (1. interst rate) ^ number of years

example if you have 100$ and you want to know how much it is worth if it appretiates by 7% of a period of 20 years it would look something like this;

100 * (1.10) ^20 = 672.74$

but since you have to figure out what it was in 2008 which was exactly half way in the period you divide the exponent by half so your formula should be;

I know the answer is right because I asked my teacher and it's correct.

REAL EXAMPLE: 18 * (1.51) ^.5 = 22.12$

GREYUIT [131]
5% of the kids are in health. I got this from simplifying 3/60 which is 1/20

After that, i set up this equation: 1/20 times x/100

I would then divide 20 and 100 to get 5 and that’s basically what I did

Colin & Brian share a lottery win of £2100 in the ratio 4 : 1. Colin then shares his part between himself, his wife & th
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

His wife gets $336 more than his son.

Step-by-step explanation:

Colin and Brian:

Ratio of 4:1.

So Colin gets \frac{4}{4+1} = \frac{4}{5} of the prize.

\frac{4*2100}{5} = 1680

Colin got $1680. Dividing between himself, his wife and their son:

Ratio of 2:5:3.

So Colin gets \frac{2}{2+3+5} = \frac{2}{10}, his wife gets \frac{5}{2+3+5} = \frac{5}{10} and his son gets \frac{3}{2+3+5} = \frac{3}{10}

Wife:

\frac{5*1680}{10} = 840

His wife got $840.

Son:

\frac{3*1680}{10} = 504

His son got $504.

How much more does his wife get over their son?

840 - 504 = 336

His wife gets $336 more than his son.
