Answer:

The hourly pay for the lifeguards in 2001 was of $6.31.

Step-by-step explanation:

The hourly pay, in dollars, in t years after 1995, is given by the following equation:

P(t) = 5.60(1.02)^{t}

What was the hourly pay for the lifeguards in 2,001?

2001 is 2001 - 1995 = 6 years after 1995. So this is P(6).

P(t) = 5.60(1.02)^{t}

P(6) = 5.60(1.02)^{6} = 6.31

The hourly pay for the lifeguards in 2001 was of $6.31.

Find the area of a rectangle that is 16 3/5in. by 8 9/10
Alenkinab [10]
<h2>Greetings!</h2>

Answer:

Area is 147.74

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to recall that the equation for the area of a rectangle is:

Length * Width = area

So 16 3/5 * 8 9/10 = area

Rearrange so the whole numbers are being multiplied and the fractions are too:

We need to make the denominator same, this can be done by simply multiplying 3/5 by 2:

3/5 * 2 = 6/10

Now the two numbers can be written as 16.6 and 8.9.

Multiply both numbers by 10:

166 * 89 = 14774

Then divide this by 100 (two lots of division by 10)

14774 ÷ 1000 = 147.74

So the area of the rectangle is 147.74!

A bookshelf is 42 inches long. How many books of length 1\frac{1}{2}1 2 1 ​ inches will fit on the bookshelf? Explain your reaso
Blababa [14]

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Your question isn't well written but I saw an identical question:

A bookshelf is 42 inches long. Each book is 1 1/4 inches wide. How many books will fit on the shelf?

For us to solve this, we would divide the length of the bookshelf by the width of each book. This would be:

= 42 ÷ 1 1/4

= 42 ÷ 5/4

= 42 × 4/5

= 33 3/5

Therefore, the number of books that will fit on the shelf is 33.

two people were doing yard work for 1 hour and 35 minutes then they stopped for lunch at 1:20pm at what time did they start doin
MrMuchimi

Answer: The answer would be at 11:45.

Step-by-step explanation: First I though, if they stoppedd for lunch at 1:20 and they've been doing yard work for 1 hour and 35 minutes, I would subtract. 1 hour taken away from 1:20 would be 12:20. Then, since it would be hard to subtract 35 minutes from 12:20, 35 minutes - 20 minutes = 15 minutes. 12:20 subtract 20 minutes = 12:00. 12:00 - 15 minutes equal to 11:45. I hope this helps. I know this explanation can be confusing but it's the best I can do at the moment.

PLEASEE HELP AGAINNNN!!!!<br> If a1 = 4 and an = -4an - 1 then find the value of a6

The 6th term of the geometric sequence is of -4096.

<h3>What is a geometric sequence?</h3>

A geometric sequence is a sequence in which the result of the division of consecutive terms is always the same, called common ratio q.

The nth term of a geometric sequence is given by:

a_n = a_1q^{n-1}

In which a_1 is the first term.

For this problem, we have that:

  • The first term is a_1 = 4.
  • a_n = -4a_{n - 1}, hence the common ratio is q = -4.

Thus the 6th term of the sequence is found as follows:

a_6 = a_1q^5 = 4(-4)^5 = -4096
