Answer:

Eldest: $298500

Middle: $165250

Youngest: $149250

Explanation:

We can show the siblings like this:

e=2y                  (eldest)

m=16000+y       (middle)

To find the value of y, or the youngest sibling, we use an equation.

2y+16000+y+y=613000

Simplify:

4y+16000=613000

Subtract 16000 on both sides:

4y=597000

Divide both sides by 4:

y=149250

The youngest received $149250.

Knowing this, we can plug in the numbers into the original formulas:

e=2(149250)=298500                 ...or $298500

m=16000+149250=165250         ...or $165250

y=149250                                      ...or $149250

Add all those numbers up, and you reach $613000.

The graphs of functions f(x) and g(x) = f(x) + k are shown below:
Nataly [62]
Here's the info for f(x):  We are going to find the slope of the line and then write the equation for the line using one of the given points.  The coordinate points we are given are (0, 0) and (2, 4).  Using the slope formula:
m= \frac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{ x_{2}- x_{1}  }
gives us a slope equation of:
m= \frac{4-0}{2-0} and the slope is 2.  Using the point (0, 0) to write the equation of the line for f(x) looks like this in the slope-intercept form of the equation:
y- y_{1} =m(x- x_{1}) where m is the sloppe of 2 that we found and y_{1}  and  x_{1}  are the coordinates of one of the points.  It doesn't matter which one you choose; you will get the same answer whether you use (0, 0) or (2, 4): y-0=2(x-0)   Distributing that 2 into the parenthesis and simplifying gives you the equation of y = 2x, or in our function notation, f(x) = 2x.  Since f(x) is the first part of g(x), so far for g(x) we have that g(x) = 2x + k.  Now we will do the same thing for g(x) that we did for f(x) as far as writing its equation down; we don't need to find the slope cuz the slope of g(x) is the function f(x).  The equation for g(x), using the point (0, 2) (again, you could have used either point; I just picked (0, 2) cuz the other one has a decimal in it!): y - 2 = 2(x - 0).  Distributing that 2 into the parenthesis gives you this: y - 2 = 2x - 0; y = 2x + 2.  So 2 is your k value!

3. You have decided to wallpaper your rectangular bedroom. The dimensions are 12 feet 6 inches by 10 feet 6 inches by 8 feet 0 i
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

B. 5 rolls

Step-by-step explanation:

The areas of the room, not including the ceiling, are discriminated as follows:

Longer walls: (12.5\times8)\times2=200ft^2 (6 inches equals one foot)

Shorter walls: (10.5\times8)\times2 = 168ft ^ 2 (6 inches equals one foot)

Window area: (4\times3)\times2 = 24ft ^ 2

Door area: (7\times3) = 21ft ^ 2

Area that will be effectively covered:

Total area to wallpaper: 200 + 168 -24 -21 = 323ft ^ 2

Amount of paper needed: 323\times1.1 = 355.3ft ^ 2

30in = 24in + 6in = 2ft + 0.5ft = 2.5ft. That is, the area of ​​a roll of paper is 2.5\times30 = 75ft ^ 2

Number of rolls needed:

\frac{355.3}{75} = 4.73 rolls
