How many credit hours will a student have to take for the two tuition costs to be equal? Round the answer to the nearest tenth of an hour.

Answer:

h = 2.5 credit hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The tuition costs, C, for a local community college

C(h) = 250 + 200h

The tuition costs, S for the local state university

S(h) = 300 + 180h

For the two tuition costs to be equal

C(h)=S(h)

250 + 200h = 300 + 180h

Subtract 180h from both sides

250 + 200h − 180h= 300 + 180h − 180h

250 + 20h= 300

Subtract 250 from both sides

250 -250+ 20h= 300-250

20h = 50

Divide both sides by 20

h = 2.5 credit hours

Therefore, the tuition costs will be equal at 2.5 credit hours.

Please help me with this question
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a1 = 3;

a2 = 2(a1 - 2 ) = 2(3-2) = 2

a2 = 2

a3 = 2(a2-2) = 2(2-2) = 0

a3=0

a4 = 2(a3-2) = 2(0-2) = -4

a4 = -4

a5 = 2(a4 - 2) = 2(-4-2) = -12

a5 = -12

The cost of a High Definition television now averages $700, but the cost is decreasing about 15% per year. In how many years wil
Roman55 [17]

Answer: 7.7 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The cost of HD TV is $700 and it is decreasing at the rate of 15% per year

After one year it becomes

\Rightarrow 700-700\times 15\%\\\Rightarrow 700(1-0.15)

after 2 year it becomes

\Rightarrow 700(1-0.15)-700(1-0.15)\times 15\%\\\Rightarrow 700(1-0.15)(1-0.15)\\\Rightarrow 700(1-0.15)^2

Suppose, after x years it becomes $200

\Rightarrow 200=700(1-0.15)^x\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{2}{7}=0.85^x\\\\\text{Taking log both sides}\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{\ln (\frac{2}{7})}{\ln (0.85)}\\\\\Rightarrow x=7.7\ \text{years}

Thus, it takes 7.7 years for the cost to come under $200.

One ordered pair (a,b) satisfies the two equations ab^4 = 384 and a^2 b^5 = 4608. What is the value of a in this ordered pair?
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer: a = 3∛2

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

ab⁴ = 384     --> a = 384/b⁴

Substitute a = 384/b⁴ into the second equation to solve for "b".

   a²b⁵ = 4608

\bigg(\dfrac{384}{b^4}\bigg)^2\cdot b^5=4608\\\\\\\dfrac{147,456b^5}{b^8}=4608\\\\\\\dfrac{147,456}{b^3}=4608\\\\\\\dfrac{147,456}{4608}=b^3\\\\\\32=b^3\\\\\\\sqrt[3]{32} =b\\\\\\2\sqrt[3]{4} =b

Substitute b = 2∛4 into the first equation to solve for "a".

ab⁴ = 384

a(2∛4)⁴ = 384

        a  = 384/(2∛4)⁴

        a = 24/4∛4

           = 6/∛4

           = 6(∛2)/2

           = 3∛2
