Answer:

3p + 26  

Step-by-step explanation:

Let S = Sue's newspapers sold

     B = Bill's newspapers sold

     H = Harry's newspapers sold.

We have three conditions:

(1)   S = B + 26

(2)  B = 3H

(3)  H = p     Substitute (3) into (2)

(4) B = 3p     Substitute (4) into (1)

      S = 3p + 26

Sue sold 3p + 26 newspapers.

In 1989, a typical modem could transfer 2.4 kilobytes, or 2,400 bytes of information per second. Today, a typical modem can tran
den301095 [7]

Answer:

641 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate of transfer in 1989

2.4 kilobytes per second

Rate of transfer in a typical modem

1000 kilobyte per 0.65 seconds

Transfer per second for typical modem

1000/0.65=1538.461538  kilobyte per second

Comparing typical modem to 1989

\frac {1538.461538 kilobyte/s}{2.4 kilobyte/s}

=641.025641  times faster

Rounding off, this is 641 times faster

Therefore, ans=641 times

Need help fast!!! Algebra question!!!
ddd [48]
AVERAGE between 90 and 100%
means not including 90 and 100% but not including 90 or 100%


average=(sum of values in set)/(how many values in the set)

so
4 exams, so there are 4 values
average=(sum)/4

the sum is the known+unknwon
sum=76+99+86+x

so
90<span><</span>average and average <span><</span>100
or
90<span><</span>average<span><</span>100


lets say average=a

a=sum/number
a=(76+99+86+x)/4

90<(76+99+86+x)/4<100
90<(76+99+86+x)/4 and (76+99+86+x)/4<100

solve each for x and find intersection

90<span><</span>(76+99+86+x)/4
times 4 both sides
360<span><</span>261+x
minus 261 both sides
99<span><</span>x


(76+99+86+x)/4<u><</u>100
times 4 both sides
261+x<u><</u>400
minus 261 both sides
x<u><</u>139


so

99<u><</u>x<u><</u>139
since max score is 100
99<u><</u>x<u><</u>100

interval notaion is
[99,100]


answer is 2nd one
