Make the shirt equal x, and so the sweater is x + 12. Together they equal 46, so your equation is x + x + 12 = 46, which simplifies to 2x + 12 = 46. Subtract 12 from both sides, and you have 2x = 34. Divide both sides by two, and you have x = 17. The shirt is $17.

kupik [55]

Answer:

For Kyle, a Roth IRA would be a better choice if he wants to pay less tax, since the tax will be collected when he contributes funds.

For a finite sequence of nonzero numbers, the number of variations in sign is defined as the number of pairs of consecutive term

elena55 [62]

Answer:

The no. of variations in sign is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Variation in sign occurs when every single time a negative product is produced by a pair of consecutive terms.

Therefore, the determination of the number of changes in sign in the given sequence is must.

Therefore, we take the product of the pair of consecutive terms as:

$1\times (-3)$ = - 3, variation in sign

$(-3)\times 2$ = - 6, variation in sign

$2\times 5$ = 10, no sign variation

$5\times (- 4)$ = - 20, variation in sign

$- 4\times (-6)$ = 24, no sign variation

Frieda worked 26 hours 13 minutes last week. She earns $18.75 per hour. What is Frieda's pay for this work period? Round your an

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

$491.56

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of hours worked by Frieda = 26 hours 13 minutes

lets convert 13 minutes to hour

60 minutes = 1 hour\

1 minutes = 1/60 hours

13 minutes = 13/60 hours

Thus,

Total number of hours worked by Frieda = (26 + 13/60) hours

In 1 hours Freida earns = $18.75

in (26 + 13/60) hours Frieda earns = $18.75((26 + 13/60)) = 487.5 + 4.06

in (26 + 13/60) hours Frieda earns = $491.56 (Answer)

According to the same report, the 28.5 million passengers in 2018 represented a 6.7% increase in cruise passengers since 2017. h

Alisiya [41]

The number of cruise passengers must there have been in 2017 is 26.7 million.

<h3>What is percentage?</h3>

The term "percentage" comes from the Latin phrase "per centum," meaning "by the hundred." Percentages represent fractions with a denominator of 100. In other terms, it is the relationship between portion and whole in which the value of the whole is always assumed to be 100.

Now according to the question;

Let x represent the total number for cruise passengers during 2017.

In 2018, a 6.7% rise in x results in 28.5 million cruise passengers.

So, 106.7 % of x = 28.5

$\begin{aligned}&\frac{106.7}{100} * x=28.5 \\&\frac{106.7 x}{100}=28.5\end{aligned}$
