Answer:

Option 4 - $184

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Kayla and her best friend Christina go shopping. The function $p(t) = 2x^4 + 6x^3 - 3x^2 + 24$ represents how much money each girl spent based on the number of hours they were shopping. If Kayla and Christina each go shopping for 2 hours.

To find : How much money did they spend together?

Solution :

The function $p(t) = 2x^4 + 6x^3 - 3x^2 + 24$ .

If Kayla and Christina each go shopping for 2 hours i.e. x=2.

$p(2) = 2(2)^4 + 6(2)^3 - 3(2)^2 + 24$

$p(2) = 32 + 48-12 + 24$

$p(2) = 92$

The total amount of money Kayla and her best friend Cristina spent together is

$Total=\$92+\$92\\\\Total=\$184$

Therefore, they spend together is $184.

So, option 4 is correct.

Answer: LAST OPTION.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have the following function that represents the amount of money each girl spent:

$p(t) = 2x^4 + 6x^3 - 3x^2 + 24$

Where "t" is the number of hours they were shopping.

You know that each girl went shopping for 2 hours.

Then, you can substitute $t=2$ into the given function:

$p(2) = 2(2)^4 + 6(2)^3 - 3(2)^2 + 24$

Evaluating, you get that the amount of money spent by one of these girls in 2 hours, is:

$p(2) = 92$

Therefore, the total amount of money Kayla and her best friend Cristina spent together is:

$Total=\$92+\$92\\\\Total=\$184$

This matches with the last option.

Peter planted 5/12 of his garden with asparagus and 3/12 with beans.

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer: He has planted 2/3 and there is 1/3 left to plant.

Explanation: You need to add your fractions together, because each of those is a section of the garden and you need the total of how much of the garden he has planted.

This isn’t too difficult because the denominators are the same.

5/12 + 3/12 = 8/12

It is 8/12 because since the denominators are the same, you just need to add the numerators. Imagine you have a pie that’s cut into 12 pieces, and you and your friends take 5, and then your family takes 3. How many or gone now? 8 pieces. From how many pieces? 12 pieces. So 8/12 pieces are gone.

So Peter has planted 8/12 of his garden. This however, can be simplified, because both of those numbers divide by 4.

8/4 = 2
12/4 = 3

So 8 is now 2, and 12 is now 3.

This is now 2/3.

If there is 2/3 gone, you need to figure out how much is left to get you to 1.

In this instance, 1 can be rewritten as 3/3, because 3 divided by 3 is 1.

In order to get from 2/3 to 1, you need to add 1/3, one more third to the two thirds you already have.

This means Peter has 1/3 left to plant.

Hope this helps :)

Colby is making a home video consisting of a 5-minute introduction followed by several short skits. Each skit is 6 minutes long.

givi [52]

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is: There are a total of 16 skits in the video.

<h2>Why?</h2>

From the statement, we know that the total length of the video is 101 minutes and it contains a 5-minute introduction, the rest of the minutes are short skits (which are 6 minutes long each one).

So, we need to write the following equations:

First equation:

$TotalDuration=Introduction+n*Skit$

Second equation:

$Skit=6Minutes$

Where,

$TotalDuration=101Minutes\\Introduction=5Minutes\\n=NumberOfSkits\\Skit=6Minutes$

So, replacing and substituting the second equation into the first equation we have:

$101Minutes=5Minutes+n*6Minutes\\n*6Minutes=101Minutes-5Minutes\\n*6Minutes=96Minutes\\n=\frac{96Minutes}{6Minutes}=16$

So, there are a total of 16 skits in the video.

Let's prove it substituting "n" into the first equation:

$101Minutes=5Minutes+16*6minutes\\101Minutes=5Minutes+96Minutes\\101Minutes=101Minutes$

Have a nice day!
