your equation for the prblem is a=p(1-r)^t

when you put $28,000 as A and make 13% into 0.13 and solve your B comes to 0.87. hope this was helpful :)

Not sure
te rate is r
for decay, it is
A=P(1-r)^t
r=rate
P=present amount
dunno what b is
but I guess
A=28000(1-0.13)^t
A=28000(0.87)^t
I would guess the decay factor would be 0.87

Joe needs to buy supplies for a birthday party. At the store, balloons cost $0.50 each and party hats each cost $1.25. If Joe wa
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

0.50b+1.25h=20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b be the number of balloons and h be number of party hats.

We have been given that balloons cost $0.50 each, so cost of b balloons will be 0.50b.

We are also told that party hats each cost $1.25, so cost of h party hats will be 1.25h.

Further, Joe wants to spend exactly $20 on the party supplies. We can represent this information in an equation as:

0.50b+1.25h=20

Therefore, the equation 0.50b+1.25h=20 represents the number of balloons ( b) and the number of party hats ( h) that Joe can buy spending exactly $20.

Who’s right? And why?
kvasek [131]

Answer: Raymond is correct

The DJ charges $75 an hour.

=================================================

Explanation:

x = number of hours

y = total cost

The DJ does a 3-hour event for $275. This means one point is (x,y) = (3,275)

Another point is (5,425) because a 5-hour event costs $425.

Let's find the slope of the line through these two points.

(x_1,y_1) = (3,275) \text{ and } (x_2,y_2)  = (5,425)\\\\m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}\\\\m = \frac{425 - 275}{5 - 3}\\\\m = \frac{150}{2}\\\\m = 75\\\\

The slope is 75, meaning that each time y goes up by 75, x goes up by 1.

Flipped around it means each time x goes up by 1, y goes up by 75.

This means each time we add on an extra hour, the cost goes up by $75.

The DJ charges $75 an hour. Raymond is correct.

-(y-7)=14 solve the following equation
enyata [817]

First, distribute the negative sign and get -y + 7 = 14

then subtract 7 from both sides and get -y = 7

Divide both sides by -1 and get y = -7

Hope this helps :)
