Answer:

The ratio of the number of Lisa’s stickers to the number of John’s stickers is 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Let

x ----> the number of stickers that Lisa has

y ----> the number of stickers that John has

we know that

x+y=60 ------> equation A

x=y+12 ----> equation B

Solve the system by substitution

Substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

(y+12)+y=60\\ 2y=60-12\\ 2y=48\\ y=24

Find the value of x

x=y+12 -----> x=24+12=36

therefore

Lisa has 36 stickers  and John has 24 stickers

Step 2

Find the ratio of the number of Lisa’s stickers to the number of John’s stickers

so

x/y

substitute

\frac{36}{24}=\frac{3}{2}

Laurie was scuba diving. Each time she dove 5 feet deeper, she would stop and clear her ears. After Laurie had checked her instr
stepladder [879]

Answer:

Laurie's maximum depth can be represented using the expressions :

(20 × 3) = 60

(3 × 4 × 5) = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Each depth level at which ears are checked = 5 feets

Each Depth level at which instruments are checked = 20 feets

For Laurie to check her instrument ;

Number of times ears are checked = 20/5 = 4 times

This means that for Laurie to have checked her instrument 3 times :

(4 × 3 × 5) = 60 feets

Therefore, Laurie's maximum depth can be expressed as (4 × 3 × 5) = 60 feets

Consider the tables created using an initial investment of $1,000 and quarterly compounding of interest.
Andru [333]

Answer:

(d)  The functions are not inverses because for each ordered pair (x, y) for one function, there is no corresponding ordered pair (y, x) for the other function.

Step-by-step explanation:

If functions are represented by a table of ordered pairs, their inverse function is the set of ordered pairs with the x- and y-values swapped.

Here, for (x, y) = (0.75, 1038.18), the pair from the other table that begins to correspond is (y, x) = (0.75, 1057.81). These reversed pairs are not the same, so the functions are not inverses of each other.

_____

<em>Comment on the tables</em>

Table A is for a 5-year investment; table B is for a 7.5 year investment. They cannot be inverses of each other.
