<span>Krystal's rate = 1 floor in 16 min. = 1/16 floors per min.

Working together their rate = 1 floor in 5.76 min. = 1/5.76 floors per min.

We need to determine Perry's rate, so we need to equate their combined rate with the sum of the individual rates.

Let Perry's time = x

In equation form, we can write:
1/16 + 1/x = 1/5.76
Solve for x:

(x+16)/16x = 1/5.76 -> 5.76(x+16) = 16x -> 10.24x = 92.16 -> x = 9

So, Perry would take 9 mins. to do the floor alone.

I hope this helped!

Janice Went to five different stores in the mall, she spent an average of $30 at each store. After visiting just the first four
777dan777 [17]

Based on Janice average, she spent $50 at the last store.

Let a, b, c, d, e represent the money spent on the five stores respectively.

Since she spent an average of $30 at each store, hence:

(a + b + c + d + e) / 5 = 30

(a + b + c + d + e) = 150

She spent $100 on the first four stores, hence:

a + b + c + d = 100

(a + b + c + d + e) = 150

100 + e = 150

e = 50

Hence based on Janice average, she spent $50 at the last store.

If f(x) = x2 + 4x - 12, find f(2).
Illusion [34]

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Please write this as  f(x) = x^2 + 4x - 12.  "x^2" represents "the square of x."

f(2) is the value of this function when x = 2:

f(2) =  f(2) = (2)^2 + 4(2) - 12  =  9 - 12 = -3
