If Gina has $90 and pays:
$20 for beginning
$5 per hour
Then 90 - 20 is 70. 70 divided by 5 is 14.
She can rent a surfboard to surf for 14 hours.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a test/hw, I'll give a hint.
This problem at first can seem a bit difficult with q's and power's everywhere.
But let's take a step backward. A power is when your mutiplying something by itself again and again.
Ex: 3^3=3 times 3 times 3
But what if we had something liiiike this:
(3^3)2
In this case its now
(3 times 3 times 3)^2, so its "techinicaly" (27)^2. And you would a fairly large number, which I'm to lazy to solve. But that's not the point.
We've seen what a power is deconstructed, and what a power is. Because my explantion probably confused you more than it helped, I'll give an example.
(2^2)^2=(2 times 2)^2=(4^2=16=2^4
However, there is a shorter way to solve it.
(2^2)^2=2^(2 times 2)=2^4
Hope this helps.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
percent increase = increase divided by original number x 100
increase is the difference between the two numbers...
new number - original number.....4000 - 2800 = 1200
percent increase = (1200 / 2800) x 100
= 0.42857 (round to .4286) x 100
= 42.86 %.....if you need it rounded to the nearest percent, it would be 43% increase

Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by combining like terms.
Collecting x terms onto the left side results in 8x;
collecting constants onto the right side results in 16.
Therefore, 8x = 16, and x = 2
