Brad gets an allowance of $16 each week, and his younger sister Samantha gets an allowance of $9 each week. Brad saves one-half

Answer:

20 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

To be able to find the amount of weeks that it will take them to have the same amount, you can say that the amount that Brad saves each week for the number of weeks is equal to the amount that Samantha saves each week for the number of weeks plus the initial amount she has:

(16*1/2)*x=((9*2/3)*x)+40, where

x is the number of weeks

Now, you have to solve for x:

8x=6x+40

8x-6x=40

2x=40

x=40/2

x=20

According to this, the answer is that it will take them 20 weeks to have the same amount in savings.

What is cosA for this triangle?<br><br> 48/55<br><br> 55/73<br><br> 55/48<br><br> 48/73
mash [69]

For this case we must indicate the cosine of A, of the figure shown. By definition:

Cosine (A) = \frac {Cateto\ adjacent\ to\ the \ angle} {hypotenuse}

Substituting the values we have:

Cosine (A) = \frac {48} {73}

So, we have to:

Cosine (A) = \frac {48} {73}

Which of the following is a subset of {1, 3, 5, 7, 9}?
MakcuM [25]
In mathematics, a set A is a subset of a set B, or equivalently B is a superset of A, if A is "contained" inside B. I belive the correct answer from the choices listed above is the second option. It is the set  {5, 6, 7} that is a subset of <span> {1, 3, 5, 7, 9}. Hope this answers the question</span>

The function h is defined as follows.
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

The equation you are given is a quadratic. The standard form of a quadratic is y = a(x-h)2 + k where (h,k) is the vertex of the graph, which is a parabola. Vertically moving the graph 4 units upward means that you are moving k +4 units.

y = a(x-h)2 + k            standard form

y = 5x2 - 4                  original equation

y = 5(x-0)2 - 4            re-written in standard form

h = 0     k = -4

Four (4) units up is k + 4--->-4 + 4 = 0.

Therefore, f(x) = 5x2 + 0--->f(x) = 5x2.

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this helps
