Ok, first set this up as an equation with your given variables. You know that Sylvie bought 1 container of cream cheese, which is $2.95, and you know that Sylvie spent $7.50
<u>(my best assumption is this is the subtotal)</u><u /> on the cream cheese and 13 bagels. As an equation, it would come out as:
To start solving the algebraic equation, wou can subtract 2.95 on both sides, resulting as
Now, to get "b" by itself, you must divide
13 on both sides, resulting as
This will answer your question as the cost of 1 bagel would be
$0.35 per bagel.
Answer:
Non-linear.
Step-by-step explanation:
$78
The difference between choice A and B is 5 meals and $80 so 1 meal is $16. So we can subtract $16 from $250 and we get $234 for 3 nights. 1 night is $78
Answer: 286 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
x : # of months that has gone by
0.24x : cost of the 24 cent plan after "x" minutes
39.95 + 0.10x : cost of the 10 cent plan after "x" minutes
1. 39.95 + 0.10x > 0.24x
2. 39.95 > 0.24x - 0.10x
3. 39.95 > 0.14x
4. 285.36 > x
x must be AT LEAST 286 minutes for plan #2 (39.95 + 0.10x) to be a better deal
Answer:
9990 years
Step-by-step explanation:
The exponential function with given values filled in can be solved for the unknown using logarithms.
__
Q(t) = 12 = 36e^(-0.00011t)
1/3 = e^(-0.00011t) . . . . . . divide by 36
ln(1/3) = -0.00011t . . . . . . take natural logs
t = ln(1/3)/(-0.00011) . . . . divide by the coefficient of t
t ≈ 9990 . . . years
