March, April, and May correspond to 3,4, and 5th months.  Each month the amount of money he saves increases by $40, so this is a constant rate of change, or constant velocity, which means that this is a linear equation.  Let y=the amount of money he has and x=the month number and model it with the line of form y=mx+b, where m=slope, or rate, and b=y-intercept...

y=40x+b, we know that he has $40 on the third month (February) so:

40=40(3)+b

40=120+b

-80=b so the equation is:

y=40x-80  (note that the domain is x=[3, +oo) only for the function to have meaining)

Now you want to know when he has $320...

320=40x-80  

400=40x

10=x

So he will have $320 on the 10th month, which is October.

2. The number of adults who live in the house is <em>3</em><em> </em>(1,200/400).

3.a. If an adult recycled the <em>glass, paper, and card</em> that have 42% of the rubbish, the adult will generate 232 kg (400 kg x (1 - 42%) of rubbish.

b. If the adult, in addition, had a <em>composite for vegetable and decomposable material</em>, he will generate 152 kg (400 kg x (1 - 62%).

Data and Calculations:

1 ton = 1,000 kg

Weight of rubbish produced by an adult per year = 400 kg

Total kg of rubbish produced by the family = 1,200 kg (1,000 x 1.2)

Percentage of Vegetable and decomposable material = 20%

Percentage of glass, paper, and card = 42% (33% + 9%)

A model car is 5 inches long. The actual length of the car is 15 feet . What is the scale factor of the model car?
Elodia [21]

Answer:

1 : 36

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain the scale factor, the dimensions must be in the same units.

Using the conversion

1 foot = 12 inches, then

15 feet = 15 × 12 = 180 inches, thus

scale factor = 5 : 180 ← divide both parts by 5

scale factor = 1 : 36
