We can put the two equations together with substitution, and we get
3x + 2y = 30
Now we have a single equation in two variables, so we don't have enough information to solve for both x and y.
Answer: 9/52
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
5. f(x) = 10,000 (1.5)^x
Step-by-step explanation:
We would have to multiply the original amount by 1.50^x because the initial amount would be 1, and 50% increase would be .5 so 1.5 and you raise it to the number of years to show the total increase.
Let's test it.
Initial:
10,000
After 1 year
10,000 + (.5*10000)
10,000 + 5000 = 15,000
After 2 years
15,000 + (.5*15000)
15,000 + 7500 = 22,500
Let's try our equation.
f(x) = 10,000 (1.5)^x
x = 2
10,000(1.5)^2
10,000(2.25) = 22,500
The same!
Answer:
1.8 gallons would be used.
Step-by-step explanation:
TOTAL AREA TO BE PAINTED:
2 x 10 x 20 + 2 x10x 16 = 720 ft2
720 ft2 / 400 ft2 /gal = 1.8 gal
