Answer:
Pam: $181
Amanda: $362
Julie: $452
Step-by-step explanation:
(What does Mike have to do with this problem?)
Let a = Amanda's pay
Let p = Pam's pay
Let j = Julie's pay
"Amanda made twice what Pam earned"
a = 2p
"Julie made $90 more than Amanda"
j = a + 90
j = 2p + 90
Pam earned p
Total salary
a + p + j = 2p + p + 2p + 90
Total salary
$995
2p + p + 2p + 90 = 995
5p = 905
p = 181
a = 2p = 2(181) = 362
j = 2p + 90 = 362 + 90 = 452
Answer:
Pam: $181
Amanda: $362
Julie: $452
The function modelled by the height (x) of the tree is as follows:
y - 180 = (368 - 180)/(7 - 3) (x - 3)
y - 180 = 47(x - 3) = 47x - 141
y = 47x - 141 + 180 = 47x + 39
Therefore, after 10 years, the tree will be 47(10) + 39 = 470 + 39 = 509 cm tall
It seems confusing, but it's just breaking down the steps for you. It's done the same as any other word problem.
a. The unknown is how many minutes she used beyond the plan. So, we'll use "m" for the variable, to represent minutes.
b. 73.40 = 65 + 0.10m
The 73.40 is the total, which is why it's by itself. 65 represents the price per month for the plan, and 0.10m is the price per extra minute multiplied by the unknown amount of minutes used.
c. 73.40 = 65 + 0.10m
8.40 = 0.10m
84 = m
d. The number of minutes that Allegra went over the time that the plan allows is found by solving the equation we just wrote and solved. $0.10 is paid for every minute past the plan's allowance, meaning that "m" in the equation, when solved, shows us exactly how many minutes over Allegra went.
4(5x+1)(5x-1) = 0
1. Take out the GCF (in this case, 4)
4(25x^2-1) = 0
2. This can be further factored. Factor the values within the parenthesis
4(5x + 1)(5x -1) = 0
Answer:
10.5
Step-by-step explanation:
First, divide 6 by 2. You get 3, right? So now you know that you multiply by three to get the answer. 3.5 * 3 will equal 10.5
