Answer:   $195

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount of money (in dollars) saved by Brett.

Then, the amount saved by Dan = 2x

The amount saved by Maria = 60+x           (1)

If they saved $600 altogether, then we have the following equation :-

x+2x+x+60=600\\\\\Rightarrow\ 4x=600-60\\\\\Rightarrow\ 4x=540

Divide both sides by 3, we get

x=135

Now, the amount saved by Brett = $135

The amount saved by Maria = $135+$60 = $195     [From (1)]

Setting it up, we have Dan + Bret + Maria all saving 600.00
Dan = 2B
Bret = B
Maria = B+60

2B + B + B + 60 = 600
4B = 540
B = 135

Dan = 2(135) = 270
Brett = 135
Maria = 135 + 60 = 195

Vinil7 [7]

the units of measurement for the composite function s(w(h)) is  \frac{Signs}{weeks} . Correct option A) .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , Mary paints wooden signs and sells them at craft fairs. The function s(t) approximates how many signs Mary paints per hour. The function w(h) represents how many hours per week Mary spends painting the wooden signs. We need to find What are the units of measurement for the composite function s(w(h)) . Let's find out:

Basically we have two functions as ,

s(t) : how many signs Mary paints per hour

⇒ \frac{Signs}{hour}

w(h) : how many hours per week Mary spends painting the wooden signs

⇒ \frac{hours}{week}

In function composition, if we have two function f(x) and g(x) then

(f.g)(x) or f(g(x)) means first apply g(), then apply f() i.e. applying function f to the results of function g. So , In s(w(h)) :

⇒ \frac{Signs}{hour}(\frac{hours}{week})

⇒ \frac{Signs}{weeks}

Therefore ,  the units of measurement for the composite function s(w(h)) is  \frac{Signs}{weeks} . Correct option A) .

First we need to have same units before comparing them. That is, either both of them are in cm or both of them are in mm. So if we need to convert 12.5 cm to mm, we know that 1 cm =10 mm. So we have to find out how many mm are in 12.5 cm. And let 12.5 cm =x mm. So to find the value of x , we set a proportion and solve for x. That is

\frac{1cm}{10mm}=\frac{12.5cm}{x mm}

The units cancel out and we do cross multiplication. That is

1*x =12.5*10

x=125

So 12.5 cm =125 mm. Therefore the correct proportion is C.
