The answer would be 168.

To show my work apparently since the mods wont stop deleting my answers.

Rewrite input as fractions if needed.
28/12, 7/2, 3/7, 4/8

For the denominators (12, 2, 7, 8) the least common multiple (LCM) is 168.

Therefore, the least common denominator is 168.

A phone company offers two monthly plans. Plan A costs $25 plus an additional $0.09 for each minute of calls. Plan B has no init
Lisa [10]

Using linear functions, it is found that the two plans cost the same for 5000 minutes of calling.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0.

For Plan A, the cost is of $25 plus an additional $0.09 for each minute of calls, hence the y-intercept is b = 25, the slope is of a = 0.09, and the function is:

A(x) = 0.09x + 25

For Plan B, the cost is of $0.14 for each minute of calls, hence the y-intercept is b = 0, the slope is of a = 0.14, and the function is:

B(x) = 0.14x

The plans cost the same for x minutes of calling, considering that:

B(x) = A(x)

0.14x = 0.09x + 25

0.05x = 250

x = \frac{250}{0.05}

x = 5000

The two plans cost the same for 5000 minutes of calling.

The area of a rectangle has decreased by 2%.
MissTica

Answer:

The other side was decreased to approximately .89 times its original size, meaning it was reduced by approximately 11%

Step-by-step explanation:

We can start with the basic equation for the area of a rectangle:

l × w = a

And now express the changes described above as an equation, using "p" as the amount that the width is changed:

(l × 1.1) × (w × p) = a × .98

Now let's rearrange both of those equations to solve for a / l.  Starting with the first and easiest:

w = a/l

now the second one:

1.1l × wp = 0.98a

wp = 0.98a / 1.1l

1.1 wp / 0.98 = a/l

Now with both of those equalling a/l, we can equate them:

1.1 wp / 0.98 =  w

We can then divide both sides by w, eliminating it

1.1wp / 0.98w = w/w

1.1p / 0.98 = 1

And solve for p

1.1p = 0.98

p = 0.98 / 1.1

p ≈ 0.89

So the width is scaled by approximately 89%

We can double check that too.  Let's multiply that by the scaled length and see if we get the two percent decrease:

.89 × 1.1 = 0.979

That should be 0.98, and we're close enough.  That difference of 1/1000 is due to rounding the 0.98 / 1.1 to .89.  The actual result of that fraction is 0.89090909...  if we multiply that by 1.1, we get exactly .98.

Factor 5v^2 - 23v - 10​
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

(5v + 2)(v - 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The expression is written in the form of ax^2 + bx + c

Let's factor by grouping:

ac  = -50

The sum of the factors of -50 should add up to -23.

-25 and 2 work for this.

Expand and factor:

  • 5v^2 - 23v - 10
  • 5v^2 - 25v + 2v - 10
  • 5v(v - 5) +2(v -5 )
  • (5v + 2)(v - 5)

The factored expression is (5v + 2)(v - 5)

If function F is defined by f(x) = 3x^2 + 5, what is f(x-4)
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

The function f(x) when x=x-4 is f(x-4)=3x^2-24x+53  or f(x-4)=3x(x-8)+53

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function f is defined by f(x)=3x^2+5

Now to find the function f(x-4):

f(x)=3x^2+5

Put x=x-4 in the above function we get

f(x-4)=3(x-4)^2+5

f(x-4)=3(x^2-2(x)(4)+4^2)+5 (using the formula (a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2)

f(x-4)=3(x^2-8x+16)+5

f(x-4)=3x^2-24x+48+5 (adding the like terms)

f(x-4)=3x^2-24x+53

f(x-4)=3x(x-8)+53

Therefore f(x-4)=3x^2-24x+53  or f(x-4)=3x(x-8)+53

The function f(x) when x=x-4 is f(x-4)=3x^2-24x+53  or f(x-4)=3x(x-8)+53
