At the old price of $6.00 per pound, that would cost $21.00. If the cheese price is marked up 15%, then it will cost 6 x1.15=$6.90/ pound. So the new cost would be $6.90 x 3.5 = $24.15. So in other words, it would now cost $3.15 more in total for the 3.5 pounds.

What steps to get the principle of a 30 year loan at 5.5%?
hoa [83]
Multiply 30 -- the number of years of the loan -- by the number of payments you make each year. For example, 30 X 12 = 360. You are making 360 payments over the course of the loan. Divide your mortgage interest rate by your total payments.

How to reflect over y axis in an equation?
iren [92.7K]
<span>1)  y = -f(x) (This is the reflection about the x-axis of the graph y = f(x).)  That is for every point (x, y) there is a point (x, -y).
</span><span>2)  y = |f(x)| means that the entire graph will be above the x-axis.  Why?  (The absolute value is always positive, that's why!!)<span>  To graph the absolute value graph, graph the function y = f(x).  Anything above the x-axis, stays above it, anything below the x-axis is reflected above the x-axis and anything on the x-axis, stays on the x-axis.
</span></span><span>3)  y = f(-x)  (This is reflection about the y-axis of the graph y = f(x))  For every point on the right of the y-axis, there is a point equidistant to the left of the y-axis.  That is for every point (x, y), there is a point (-x, y).  
</span><span>4)  Reflections about the line y = x is accomplished by interchanging the x and the y-values.  Thus for y = f(x) the reflection about the line y = x is accomplished by x = f(y).  Thus the reflection about the line y = x for y = x2 is the equation x = y2. </span>

A swimming pool is to be drained. The pool is shaped like a rectangular prism with length 30 feet, wide 18 ft, and depth 4ft. Su
Gala2k [10]

Answer: it will take 9 hours to empty the pool.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pool is shaped like a rectangular prism with length 30 feet, wide 18 ft, and depth 4ft. It means that when the pool is full, its volume is

30 × 18 × 4 = 2160 ft³

If water is pumped out of the pool at a rate of 216ft3 per hour, then the rate at which the water in the pool is decreasing is in arithmetic progression. The formula for determining the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as

Tn = a + d(n - 1)

Where

a represents the first term of the sequence(initial amount of water in the pool when completely full).

d represents the common difference(rate at which it is being pumped out)

n represents the number of terms(hours) in the sequence.

From the information given,

a = 2160 degrees

d = - 216 ft3

Tn = 0(the final volume would be zero)

We want to determine the number of terms(hours) for which Tn would be zero. Therefore,

0 = 2160 - 216 (n - 1)

2160 = 216(n - 1) = 216n + 216

216n = 2160 - 216

216n = 1944

n = 1944/216

n = 9
