Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) x>0 → items can not be negative
b) c(2,000) = 5,000+1.3(2,000) = $7,600
c)5,000+1.3x<10,000
5,000-5,000+1.3x<10,000-5,000
1.3x<5,000
x<3846 items
Answer:
a = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
In an AP the difference between consecutive terms is common (equal), thus
t₂ - t₁ = t₃ - t₂ , that is
2a + 1 - (a + 1) = 4a - 1 - (2a + 1) ← distribute and simplify both sides
2a + 1 - a - 1 = 4a - 1 - 2a - 1
a = 2a - 2 ( subtract 2a from both sides )
- a = - 2 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
a = 2
Answer:
<em>It took 31 days for the patch to cover half the lake</em>
<em></em>
Step-by-step explanation:
The patch grows to double its size everyday
the patch completely covers the lake in 32 days
Since the patch doubles itself everyday, this means that the previous day before the 32nd day, the lake was just half covered.
Therefore, the the patch covered half the lake on the 31st day, i.e <em>it took 31 days for the patch to cover half the lake</em>
<em></em>
