Answer: 8.8 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question, first we have to divide the total weight loss in a week (28 kg) by 7 (days in a week).

28 /7 = 4 kg per day

The group lost 4 kg each day.

Finally we have to convert the result into pounds.

Since 1 kg = 2.2 pounds

4 kg x 2.2 = 8.8 pounds.

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

Solve the following linear system by graphing <br> 4x+5y=10<br> 3x-3y=21
Inga [223]

Answer:

y = 2

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 5y = 10 | ×3 |

3x - 3y = 21 | ×4 |

12x + 15y = 30

12x - 12y = 84

____________--

27y = -54

y = -54/27

y = 2

4x + 5y = 10 | ×3 |

3x - 3y = 21 | ×5 |

12x + 15y = 30

15x - 15y = 105

____________+

27x = 135

x = 135/27

x = 5

Half an hour after leaving her house Beverly was 20 miles from home. At this point she merged onto the highway and was traveling
N76 [4]

Answer:

1. 45.71 miles

2. 10 miles

3. 89.43 miles

4. 0.79 hr

5. 0.025 hr

Step-by-step explanation:

speed = distance/time

After 4 hrs Beverly was 200 miles from home , however she had spent 0.5hr travelling for 20 miles prior to getting to the highway.

Therefore;

Constant speed before Highway = 20/0.5 = 40 miles/hr

Constant speed at Highway = \frac{(200-20)}{(4-0.5)} = 51.43 miles/hr

1. in 1 hr beverly will have travelled;

⇒ (20 miles in 0.5 hr ) + (0.5 hr  at speed 51.43 miles/hr)

⇒ 20 + (0.5 x 51.43) = 45.71 miles

2. In 0.25 hr beverly had not reached the highway

⇒ distance = speed x time

⇒ distance = 40 x 0.25 = 10 miles

3. in 1.85 hrs beverly will have travvelld;

⇒ (20 miles in 0.5 hr ) + (1.35 hr at speed 51.43 miles/hr)

⇒ 20 + 69.43 = 89.43 miles

4. Time taken to get to 35 miles

⇒ (20 miles in 0.5 hr ) + (15 miles  at speed 51.43 miles/hr)

⇒ 0.5hr + (15/51.43) hr = 0.79 hr

5. Time taken to travel 1 mile

 ⇒ time = distance / speed = 1 mile  / 40 miles/hr

⇒ time = 0.025 hr

What is the volume of this rectangular prism? 30.75 cm^3
Alex787 [66]

This question is incomplete. Because it lacks the diagram of the Rectangular prism. Find attached to this answer the appropriate diagram.

Answer:

295.2 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

A Rectangular Prism is a 3 dimensional geometric shape.

The formula used to calculate the volume of the Rectangular Prism = Length × Width × Height

Length = 15cm

Height = 4.8cm

Width = 4.1cm

Volume of the Rectangular Prism = 15cm × 4.8cm × 4.1cm

= 295.2 cm³

Fabio and Gwen are saving money to buy a new gaming station. They need at least $510 to purchase the new gaming station. Gwen we
vaieri [72.5K]

x represents the number of lawns weeded by Gwen and y represents the number of dogs walked by Fabio.

Gwen charges $12 each time she weeds a yard and Fabio charges $9 each time he walks a dog.

So, for x number of weeds, Gwen earned 12x and for y number of dogs walked, Fabio earned 9y.

They need at least $510 to purchase the new gaming station.

Therefore,

12x + 9y ≥ 510

Also, the number of dog walks that Fabio has scheduled should not be more than twice the number of yards Gwen has scheduled to weed.

Therefore,

y ≤ 2x

Also, Fabio will walk at least 25 dogs.

Therefore,

y ≥ 25

Hence, the constraints are:

12x + 9y ≥ 510

y ≤ 2x

y ≥ 25

What is the amount of a $4,000.00 annuity due at 12 percent compounded semiannually for 3 years?
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

$ 5674.076

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is on compound interest

The formulae = A= P(1+ r/n) ^nt .......where P is the principal amount, r is the rate of interest in decimal, n is number of compoundings per year and t is the total number of years.

Given; P= $4,000.00 , r=12/100=0.12, n=2 and t=3

Substituting values in the equation  A= P(1+ r/n) ^nt

A= 4000 ( 1+0.12/2)^2×3

A=4000(1.06)^6

A=$ 5674.08
