Just find the unit price (price divided by amount)

6 lb for $50.00

50.00/6 = about $8.33 per lb

6.5 lb for $60.00

60.00/6.5 = about $9.23 per lb

<em>6 lb for $50.00 would be the better deal</em>

Answer: $46x^2+73x+15$

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle can be calculated with the formula:

$A=lw$

l: the length of the rectangle.

w: the width of the rectangle.

The area of the remaning wall after the mural has been painted, will be the difference of the area of the wall and the area of the mural.

Knowing that the dimensions of the wall are $(6x+7)$ by $(8x+5)$ , its area is:

$A_w=(6x+7)(8x+5)\\\\A_w=48x^2+30x+56x+35\\\\A_w=48x^2+86x+35$

As they are planning that the dimensions of the mural be $(x+4)$ by $(2x+5)$ , its area is:

$A_m=(x+4)(2x+5)\\\\A_m=2x^2+5x+8x+20\\\\A_m=2x^2+13x+20$

Then the area of the remaining wall after the mural has been painted is:

$A_{(remaining)}=A_w-A_m\\\\A_{(remaining)}=48x^2+86x+35-(2x^2+13x+20)\\\\A_{(remaining)}=48x^2+86x+35-2x^2-13x-20\\\\A_{(remaining)}=46x^2+73x+15$

A population of size 3,624 grows at a rate of 3% per year, compounded continuously. How big will the population be in 2 years?

rodikova [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The continuous compound formula is

$y=Pe^{rt$ where P is the principle or starting value, r is the growth rate in decimal form, and t is the time in years. For us:

$y=3624e^{(.03)(2)}\\y=3624e^{.06}\\y=3624(1.061836547)\\y=3848.09$

which would probably round to just 3848 people.
