Hi there! :)

Answer:

X = 30

Y = 97

Step-by-step explanation:

The lines on each side of the figure means that the side with 1 line is equal to the other side with 1 line and the side with 2 lines is equal to the other side with 2 lines.

Let's start by the sides with 1 line:

4x = 3x + 30

Now solve this equation by isolating "x":

4x = 3x + 30

Subtract 3x from each side of the equation: 4x - 3x = x

x = 30

Now that you know the value of "x", you can go ahead and find the value of "y" by replacing the "x" in the expression of the side with 2 lines and isolating the equation by isolating "y":

y = 7 + 3x

y = 7 + (3 × 30)

y = 7 + 90

y = 97

There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)

A necklace regularly sells for $18.00. the store advertises a 15% discount. what is the sale price of the necklace in dollars

SSSSS [86.1K]

I can solve with 2 methods:

I. Because the discount is 15 % of 18 $ , the price will be (100-15=85) 85 % of 18 $
18*85/100= 15,3 $ ( the sale price)

II. The discount is 15 % of 18$
15*18/100= 2,7$ ( the discount)
then I decrease it from the regularly price
18$-2,7$=15,3 $ (the sale price)

Personally I believe the first is an easier method.
I hope you understand and you can apply this in every similary problem.

he half-life for a link on a social network website is 2.6 hours. Write an exponential function T that gives the percentage of

pychu [463]

Answer:

% Remaining $= [1-(1/2)^{\frac{t}{2.6}}]x100$

And replacing the value t =5.5 hours we got:

% Remaining $= [1-(1/2)^{\frac{5.5}{2.6}}]x100 =76.922\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The half-life is defined "as the amount of time it takes a given quantity to decrease to half of its initial value. The term is most commonly used in relation to atoms undergoing radioactive decay, but can be used to describe other types of decay, whether exponential or not".

Solution to the problem

The half life model is given by the following expression:

$A(t) = A_o (1/2)^{\frac{t}{h}}$
