The way to solve this question is to essentially reverse the equation I used in the other answer.


I would solve this with some theoretical values. If you start with 3, how long would it take for it to triple, or reach 9.


the equation would look like 9 = 3(2)^t/6, note how the instead of 1/2 it is now 2 in the parenthesis, as it doubles every 6 hours rather than halves every amount of hours.


When placed into an algebra calculator, the answer should be about 9.5 hours

Mary buys a dress and a pair of shoes. Before adding the tax she pays $ 48 for the dress which normally sells for $ 62, and she
katovenus [111]
Hello! I can help you with this!

a. To find out how much Mary saved, we will have to subtract the sale price from the original price, and then add up the difference to find how much she saved. 62 - 48 is 14. 46 - 34 is 12. 14 + 12 = 26. Mary saved $26 by buying at the sale item price.

b. To find the amount of discount, we can write and solve a proportion, by setting it up like this: change/original = x/100. Change is the distance between two numbers and the original is the previous price. If you know about proportions, you cross multiply the values, and then divide each side by a number to isolate "x". If you solve each proportion correctly, here are your answers for each item:

Dress: ≈ 23% discount
Shoes: ≈ 26% discount

c. Okay. So when we add up the sales prices together, 48 + 34 is 82. In order to find the total amount with tax, we multiply the sale price, by (1 + r). In other words, add 1 to the rate in decimal form and multiply it by the total of the sales price. 82 * 106.5% (1.065) is 87.33. Mary paid a total of $87.33.

What is the width of Averi's area model? (See picture)
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

Width = x² + 5x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

By the definition of an area model,

Area = Width × greatest common factor

Since, Area = 4x² + 20x - 16

And greatest common factor = 4

4x² + 20x - 16 = 4(Width)

By dividing both the sides of the equation by 4,

\frac{4x^2+20x-16}{4}=\frac{4(\text{Width})}{4}

x² + 5x - 4 = Width

Therefore, width = (x² + 5x - 4) will be he answer.
