Answer:

The value of w is:

$w=3\cdot log_{10}(40)$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate w from the equation

$0.75\cdot 10^{w/3}=30$

The solution has to be expressed as a logarithm in base 10.

We can solve it like:

$0.75\cdot10^{w/3}=30\\\\10^{w/3}=30/0.75=40\\\\(w/3)log_{10}(10)=log_{10}(40)\\\\w/3=log_{10}(40)\\\\w=3\cdot log_{10}(40)$

The value of w is:

$w=3\cdot log_{10}(40)$

____ [38]

Each football is sold for $9.95. To make one of these football costs $7.10.
There is a profit of $2.85. Divide 11,400 by 2.85 to see how many footballs would have to sell to break even.

11,400 / 2.85 = 4000.

4000 footballs would have to be sold to break even.

A store is having a sale on trail mix and jelly beans. For 5 pounds of trail mix and 3 pounds of jelly beans, the total cost is

GaryK [48]

Answer:

Trail Mix costs $2.50 per pound, and Jelly Beans cost $1.50 per pound.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using x for trail mix and y for jelly beans, we have a system of equations being

$\left \{ {{5x+3y=17} \atop {2x+12y=23}} \right.$

We can solve this system using substitution

5x+3y=17

Divide by 5 to have a coefficient of 1 before x

$x+\frac{3}{5} y=\frac{17}{5}$

Subtract $\frac{3}{5} y$ from each side to single out one variable to one side

$x=\frac{17}{5} -\frac{3}{5} y$

Now, we can plug in our value for x into the given equation

$2(\frac{17}{5} -\frac{3}{5} y)+12y=23$

Open the parentheses

$\frac{34}{5} -1\frac{1}{5} y+12y=23$

Merge Y values

$6.8+10.8y=23$

Separate numerical values from variables

$10.8y=16.2$

Divide by 10.8 in order to have a coefficient of 1

$y=1.5$

Now that we have one of the values, we know that a pound of jelly beans costs $1.50. We can now plug in 1.5 for y into one of our equations to find x.

$5x+3(1.5)=17$

Open parentheses

$5x+4.5=17$

Single out the variable

$5x=12.5$

Divide by 5 to have a coefficient of 1 before x

$x=2.5$

$y=1.5$

the congruent sides of an isosceles triangle are each one unit longer than the length of the shortest side of the triangle the p

vazorg [7]

Let s represent the short side of the triangle. The long sides of the triangle are each s+1, and the triangle's perimeter is

... s + (s+1) + (s+1) = 3s+2

The length of one side of the square is s-2, and its perimeter is 4 times that, 4(s-2) = 4s-8. The square and triangle have the same perimeter, so

... 3s+2 = 4s-8

... 10 = s . . . . . . . . add 8-3s to both sides

The length of the shorter side of the triange is 10 units.
