To know if p = -1 is a possible solution to <span>6(p – 4) = -30p, plug in -1 for p and see if the equation is true.

</span><span>6(p – 4) = -30p
</span><span>6(-1 – 4) = -30(-1)

</span>6(-1 – 4) = -30(-1)<span>
Solve the parentheses.
-1 - 4 = -5

</span>6(-5) = -30(-1)
Multiply.
6 • -5 = -30
-30 • -1 = 30

-30 = 30
This is not true, so p = -1 is NOT a possible solution for the <span>equation 6(p – 4) = -30p.

Hope this helps!</span>

sweet [91]

Answer:

  35 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The proportion p that remains after y years is ...

  p = (1/2)^(y/5.27)

In order for 1/100 to remain (the level decays from 100 times to 1 times), we have ...

  .01 = .5^(y/5.27)

  log(0.01) = y/5.27·log(0.5) . . . take logs

  y = 5.27·log(0.01)/log(0.5) ≈ 35.01 ≈ 35 . . . . years

Martin burns 360 calories running for 30 minutes. Paul burns 165 calories for every 15 minute he runs. If Kara runs for 20 minut
Yanka [14]

Answer:  She would have to burn between 220 and 240 calories per minute to have a calorie burn rate between those of Martin and Paul.

Step-by-step explanation:

Martin:

360 calories / 30 min = 12 calories/min

Paul:

165 calories / 15 min = 11 calories/min

Kara:

Needs to burn between 11 and 12 calories/min, so we'll calculate the range:

11 calories/min x 20 min = 220 calories (minimum # calories she can burn)

12 calories/min x 20 min = 240 calories (maximum # calories she can burn)

What is the total price of a boat with an original price of ​12916$​, if it is sold at a ​15% ​discount? The sales tax rate is 3
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

$11390.30

Step-by-step explanation:

Discount

12916 x 0.15 = 1937.4

Discounted price

12916 - 1937.4 = 10978.6

Tax of 3 and 3/4 percent which I think is 0.0375

10978.6 x 0.0375 = 411.6975

Total

10978.6 + 411.6975 = $11390.2975

What is the area of this figure?
Oksanka [162]
<h3>Answer:  297 square cm</h3>

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

Work Shown:

Break up the figure as shown in the diagram below.

A rectangle and trapezoid form

-------------

Area of rectangle = base*height = 9*15 = 135 cm^2

Area of trapezoid = (1/2)*(b1+b2)*h = (1/2)*(18+9)*12 = 162 cm^2

total area = (area of rectangle)+(area of trapezoid)

total area = (135) + (162)

total area = 297 square cm
