Answer:

Cost of a snack size bag of chips = $0.8

Cost of a water bottle = $1.6

Cost of a gallon of milk = $3.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of water bottle = $a

Cost of 1 gallon milk = $b

and cost of 1 bag of chips = $c

So, cost of 4 gallons of milk, 6 bottles of water and 5 bags of chips = $(4b + 6a + 5c)

4b + 6a + 5c = 27.2 -----(1)

Cost of one water bottle = 2 × cost of one bag of chips

a = 2c -----(2)

A gallon of milk = cost of water bottle + $1.80

b = a + 1.8

From equation (2)

b = 2c + 1.8 -----(3)

Now we substitute these values from equations (2) and (3) in equation (1)

4(2c + 1.8) + 6(2c) + 5c = 27.2

8c + 7.2 + 12c + 5c = 27.2

25c = 27.2 - 7.2

c = \frac{20}{25}

c = $0.8

From equation (2)

a = 2×0.8

a = $1.6

From equation (3)

b = 2(0.8) + 1.8

b = 1.6 + 1.8

b = $3.4

Therefore, cost of a snack size bag of chips = $0.8

Cost of a water bottle = $1.6

Cost of a gallon of milk = $3.4

1. Jeremy has $12000 cash to invest in the bank compounded at 4% interest annually.
gavmur [86]

Answer:

A(x) = 12000(1.04)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound interest:

The compound interest formula is given by:

A(t) = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}

Where A(t) is the amount of money after t years, P is the principal(the initial sum of money), r is the interest rate(as a decimal value), n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year and t is the time in years for which the money is invested or borrowed.

$12000 cash

This means that P = 12000

Compounded at 4% interest annually.

This means that r = 0.04, n = 1

What equation will calculate the value in x years?

A(t) = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}

A(x) = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nx}

A(x) = 12000(1 + 0.04)^x

A(x) = 12000(1.04)^x

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!! 98 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST!!!
Setler [38]

Answer:

Part A. The slope of f(x) is 4. I observed that each time the y value would increase by 4 points every time the x value increases by 1. The slope of g(x) is 2. I identified the m value as it's in slope-intercept form. The slope of f(x) is greater then that of g(x) because 4>2

Part B. The y-intercept of f(x) is greater. It is given that when x is 0, y is -1, so the y intercept of f(x) is -1. Meanwhile, the y-intercept of g(x) is -7 after identifying the b value. -7<-1, concluding that f(x) has a greater y-intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

ty for the points

Angie and Kenny play online video games. Angie buys 1 software package and 3 months of game play. Kenny buys 1 software package
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:The cost of one month of game-play =$20


Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of one month of gameplay be x

Then cost of game-play bought by Angie =3x.....(1)

and Then cost of game-play bought by Kenny=4x......(2)

Cost of each software package =$50......(3)

The the total cost =240= sum of costs of software bought by both of them and game-play)=50+50+3x+4x

⇒240=100+7x.......→(by adding like terms)

⇒140=7x⇒x=20.....→( dividing both sides by 7 )

∴the cost of one month of game-play =$20
