Answer:
5 months
Step-by-step explanation:
Jason's original weight = 120 pounds
Let the no. of months be m
If he gains 10 pounds in each moth , then his weight in m months will be = 10m
His total weight will be= 120+10m -----(1)
Gerardo's original weight = 150 pounds
If he gains 4 pounds in each month , then his weight in m months will me =4m
His total weight will be = 150+4m-----(2)
<u>Equating (1) ans(2)</u>
120+10m=150+4m
=>10m-4m=150-120
=>6m=30
=>m=
<u>=>m=5</u>
It will take 5 months for Jason to weigh the same as Gerardo
Answer:
BC = 8 and EF = 8.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since triangle ABC and DEF are congruent to each other, BC corresponds with EF (as determined by the triangle names).
Set BC and EF equal to each other.
x + 6 = 3x + 2
Subtract x from both sides.
6 = 2x + 2
Subtract 2 from both sides.
4 = 2x.
Divide 2 on both sides.
x = 2.
Substitute 2 for x.
BC = 2 + 6
BC = 8
Since we already know that EF is congruent to BC, EF is also 8.
EC = 3(2) + 2
EC = 6 + 2
EC = 8
Answer:
- Calculus texts: 600
- History texts: 0
- Marketing texts: 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Each Calculus text returns $10/2 = $5 per unit of shelf space. For History and Marketing texts, the respective numbers are $4/1 = $4 per unit, and $8/4 = $2 per unit. Using 1200 units of shelf space for 600 Calculus texts returns ...
$5/unit × 1200 units = $6000 . . . profit
Any other use of units of shelf space will reduce profit.

Answer:
17.8 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
In the 17 hours between heights of 18.6 cm and 15.2 cm, the candle lost 3.4 cm in height. That is, the height decreased at the rate of ...
(-3.4 cm)/(17 h) = -0.2 cm/h
In the 4 hours between 12 hours and 16 hours of burning time, the candle will have changed its height by (4 h)(-0.2 cm/h) = -0.8 cm.
The height at 16 hours of burning is then 18.6 cm -0.8 cm = 17.8 cm.
