Answer:
Equation 1 = Equation 2
165 - 4x = 145 - 3.50x
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of 30-day periods.
Tavon has a gift card for $165 that loses $4 for each 30-day period it is not used.
Therefore the equation =
$165 -$4 × x
= 165 - 4x.......... Equation 1
He has another gift card for $145 that loses $3.50 for each 30-day period it is not used.
$145 -$3.50 × x
= 145 - 3.50x........... Equation 2
Hence, an equation for the number of 30-day periods until the value of the gift cards will be equal is obtained by equating Equation 1 and Equation 2 together
So, we have
Equation 1 = Equation 2
165 - 4x = 145 - 3.50x
We simplify further:
165 - 145 = -3.50 + 4.0x
20 = 0.5x
x = 20/0.5
x = 40
Therefore, number of each 30-day periods until the value of the gift cards will be equal is 40
2 to the 8th power is 256.
It's the same as doing 2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2=256.
Answer:
9 acres remain
Step-by-step explanation:
First day:
3 acres
Second day:
5 acres were planted. 5 + 3 = 8
Third day:
4 acres were planted. 4 + 8 = 12
If 3 acres were destroyed, we just subtract!
12 - 3 = 9.
9 acres of seedlings remain.
I hope this helped! :)
Answer:
4x cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Suares have to have all 4 sides equal. The area of the rectangle (2x8) is 16.
16/4 = 4, so the square has sides of 4cm each to equal an are of 16. (4x4=16)
