Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

Identify the value of each variable in the formula. Be sure to put the percent in decimal form. Be sure the units match—the rate is per hour and the time is in hours.

AA0rt=?=1000=−0.08/hour=48hours

Substitute the values in the formula.

AA=A0ert=1,000e−0.08⋅48

Compute the amount.

A≈21.49

Round to the nearest whole number.

A≈21

60in=60in × (1ft/12in) = 5ft
30in= 30in × (1ft/12in) = 2.5ft
12in = 12in × (1ft/12in) = 1ft
answer is = 5ft × 2.5ft× 1ft =12.5 ft^3 = a

dozen = 12 hammers
12 hammers = 20 pounds
therefore 1 hammer= 20/12 = 1.6666 lb

21 hammers ×1.666 = 35 = c

Calls from a call box are charged per minute at one rate for the five minutes, then a different rate for each additional minute.
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

  c.  $0.75 per minute at one rate for the first 5 minutes and $0.25 per minute thereafter

Step-by-step explanation:

The last 5 minutes of the 12-minute call cost ...

  $5.50 -4.25 = $1.25

so the per-minute rate at that time is ...

  $1.25/(5 min) = $0.25/min . . . . . . . . matches choice C only

__

You know the answer at this point, but if you want to check the rate for the first 5 minutes, you can subtract 2 minutes from the 7-minute call to find that ...

  The first 5 minutes cost $4.25 - 2·0.25 = $3.75, so are charged at ...

     $3.75/(5 min) = $0.75/min . . . . . . . matches choice C
