Lisa and Joey are each saving money for their prom. Lisa’s total amount of money is represented by the function f(x)=20-13x. The

total amount of money Joey has is given by the function g(x)=x^2-10. After how many weeks, x, will they have the same amount of money saved? Show your work.

Answer:

2 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question that,

Equation that represent Lisa's total amount of money

f(x) = 20 - 13x

Equation that represent Joey's total amount of money

g(x) = x² - 10

To find weeks, x, after which they will have same amount of money, we will equate both equation

<h3>20 - 13x =  x² - 10</h3>

x² - 10 - 20 + 13x = 0

x² - 30 + 13x = 0

x² + 13x - 30 = 0

(x - 2)(x + 15) = 0

x = 2 or x = -15

Weeks, x, can not be negative so we will reject x = -15

Hence, after 2nd week Lisa and Joey will have the same amount of money save.

Compare the two ratios is 6 : 15 less than 30 : 80 or greater than?
romanna [79]

Work:
6/15 = x/1
To get from 15 to 1, you have to divide by 15. So, to make an equal field, divide 6 by 15.

6 : 15 is the same as 2 : 5 or 0.4.

30/80 = x/1
To get from 80 to 1, you have to divide by 80. So, to make an equal field, divide 30 by 80.

30 : 80 is the same as 3 : 8 or .875.


Comparing the two, 30 : 80 is greater than 6 : 15.


Hope this helps. Have a good day.

Find of the areas of the squares PQRSto that of ABCD where PQ=9cm and AB=5cm​
Ket [755]

Answer: Area of square PQRS is 81cm^2 and of ABCD is 25cm^2

You know its a square. Which means all the sides are equal and same length. If you dont know what's a square then here is the definition:

Square is a plane figure with four equal sides and four right (90°) angles.

So now we know both of are squares, in case of the first square, PQRS, one side length is already given which is PQ=9cm. Now one side is 9cm which means all the sides are 9cm's (PQ=9cm, QR=9cm, RS=9cm,SP=9cm). So to find area just multiply them:

9cm * 9cm = 81cm^2

Now you found the area of the first square. So for the second square, ABCD, one side length is 5 cm so all the rest three sides are also 5 cm. Again, multiply them in order to find the area:

5cm * 5cm = 25cm^2

So square PQRS is 81cm^2 to that of square ABCD is 25cm^2

CAUTIONS: IT IS NOT THAT HARD YA KNOW

By the way, hope it helps! ^^

What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line whose equation is 7x−3y=107x−3y=10?
Verdich [7]
This is the concept of algebra, to get the slope of the line we need to rewrite the equation in slope intercept form y=mx+c, where m=slope, c=y-intercept.
Therefore re-writing our expression in slope-intercept form we get:
7x-3y=10
-3y=-7x+10
y=7/3x-10/3
The slope=7/3
hence we conclude that the slope of the line perpendicular to this is -3/7
