Answer:

So the ratio of shirts before the purchase to the total number of shirts after the purchase is 1:3

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we have to find the ratio of before and after so It will be written like this

Before : After

11: 33

Dividing both sides with 11

11/11:33/11

1: 3

So the ratio of shirts before the purchase to the total number of shirts after the purchase is 1:3

Which means that if we have total of 4 shirts then the number of shirts before the purchase were 1 and after the purchase were 4 meaning there are 3  new shirts in place for every single old shirt.

Alexis, Becca, and Cindy do volunteer work at Adopt-a-Pet Animal Shelter. They worked a total of 285 hours at the shelter last s
swat32

Alexis worked for 59 hours, Becca worked for 74 hours and Cindy worked for 152 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total hours worked by three of them = 285 hours

Let,

x represent the hours of Alexis.

y represent the hours of Becca.

z represent the hours of Cindy.

According to given statement;

x+y+z=285    Eqn 1

Alexis worked 15 hours less than Becca.

x = y-15         Eqn 2

z = 2y+4        Eqn 3

Putting value of x and z from Eqn 2 and 3 in Eqn 1

(y-15)+y+(2y+4)=285\\y-15+y+2y+4=285\\4y-11=285\\4y=285+11\\4y=296

Dividing both sides by 4

\frac{4y}{4}=\frac{296}{4}\\y=74

Putting y=74 in Eqn 2

x=74-15\\x=59

Putting y=74 in Eqn 3

z=2(74)+4\\z=148+4\\z=152

Alexis worked for 59 hours, Becca worked for 74 hours and Cindy worked for 152 hours.

Element X decays radioactively with a half life of 11 minutes. If there are 870 grams
exis [7]

Answer:

27.5 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Using,

R/R' = 2ᵃ/ᵇ------------------ Equation 1

From the equation,

R = mass of Element X before radioactive decay, R' = mass of element X after radioactive decay, a = Time taken, b = half life.

Given: R = 870 grams, R' = 154 grams, b = 11 minutes.

Substitute these values into equation 1

870/154 = 2ᵃ/¹¹

(870/154)¹¹ = 2ᵃ

Solve for a

2ᵃ = (5.649)¹¹

2ᵃ = 187061.26

Taking the logarithm of both side,

Log2ᵃ = Log(187061.26)

⇒ a = log(187061.26)/log2

a = 8.272/0.301

a = 27.5 minutes

Where is the hole for the following function located?
Drupady [299]

<em>At x = -3 is located a hole. </em>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

In this problem, we have the following function:

f(x)=\frac{x+3}{(x-4)(x+3)}

A hole will lie at the x-values that makes the function undefined, that is, when the denominator is zero. In a mathematical language:

(x-4)(x+3)=0

From this equation, we get two solutions:

x=4 \\ \\ x=-3

At those x-values the function will have a hole. From the choices:

<em>At x = -3 is located a hole. </em>
