Answer:

Julie bought 40 postcards and 100 stamps.

Step-by-step explanation:

Write the equation by adding the total values of each item.

0.41 (2p+20)+0.26p = 51.40

We can solve this equation for p to find the number of postcards.

0.41(2p+20)+0.26p =51.40

0.82p+8.20+0.26p=51.40

1.08p=43.2

p=40

So, the number of postcards she bought  is 40. Since the number of 41-cent stamps is 20 more than twice the number of postcards, the number of 41-cent stamps is 2(40)+20=100.

Stamps = 100, Postcards = 40

100 x 0.41 cents + 40 x 0.26 cents = $41 + $10.4 = $51.4

------ Solution-----

$0.41 x STAMPS + $0.26 x POSTCARDS = $51.4

1 STAMP = 20 + 2 x POSTCARDS

$0.41 x (20 + 2 x POSTCARDS) + $0.26 POSTCARDS  = $51.4

POSTCARDS = 40

STAMPS = 20 + 2 x 40 = 100

Finding Derivatives Implicity In Exercise, find dy/dx implicity.<br> ln y + y2 = 10
Harman [31]

Answer:

dy/dx = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

In y + y^2 = 10

Differentiating In y = 1/ydy/dx

Differentiating y^2 = 2ydy/dx

Differentiating a constant (10) = 0

1/ydy/dx + 2ydy/dx = 0

dy/dx(1/y + 2y) = 0

dy/dx = 0/(1/y + 2y) = 0

Ruben earns $4 an hour as a cashier and $5.50 and hour as a waiter. If he works 5 days per week, how much does he earn if he wor
34kurt
So to find how much Ruben will make if he works 4 hours a day as a cashier and 3 hours a day as a waiter for 5 days per week first we'll work on his cashier job. So he makes 4$ an hour as a cashier and her works 4 hours every day for 5 days, multiply 4 by 4 and you'll get 16, so he makes 16 dollars per day as a cashier. now that we know how much he makes a day we simply have to multiply 16 by 5 since he works for 5 days every week. 16*5 is 80, so Ruben makes 80 dollars working 4 hours a day for 5 days. Now we move onto his waiter job. he makes 5.50 an hour as a waiter and her works 3 hours a day. So we multiply 3 by 5.50 to get 16.5. Next, we multiply 16.5 by 5 since he also works 5 days a week as a waiter. 16.5*5 is equal to 82.5. now we add 82.5 and 80 to get 162.5. SO Ruben makes 162.5$ working both jobs 5 days a week
