To determine the cost per second can be calculated by converting the given unit in terms of second. The conversion factor that will be used is 1 minute is equal to 60 seconds. Also, use proper dimensional analysis as shown below.

      R = ($12,800 / minute) (1 minute / 60 seconds)
           R = $213.33/seconds

Therefore, one second of advertisement during prime time costs $213.33.

Oil consumption in China grew exponentially from 8.938 million barrels per day in 2010 to 10.480 million barrels per day in 2013
Afina-wow [57]

Let the year represents x axis and consumption represents y axis.

Since 2010 is the initial year, x=0

and 2013 is third year , so x=3

Co-ordinates are (0,8.938)(3,10.480)

Exponential formula is y=ab^{x}

Putting the value of x in the above formula from 1st coordinate,

8.938=ab^{0}

As b^{0} = 1

this gives a= 8.938

Now using the 2nd coordinate

10.480=ab^{3}

putting the value of a in it we have

10.480=8.938b^{3}

taking cube roots on both sides we get

b= 1.05448

Now putting the values of a and b in the exponential formula-

y=8.938(1.05448)^{x}

In the year 2028, x=28

so,

y=8.938(1.05448)^{28}

y= 39.474

Hence oil consumption per day in 2028 will be 39.474 million barrels.

-0.5(x + 0.3) – 0.2x = 4.1
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

x=-8

Step-by-step explanation:

I always change the decimals into whole numbers by multiplying them by 10.  If you do this, it is much easier to solve.  All you do is multiply every term by 10.

the equation changes to

-5(x+3)-2x=41

-5x-15-2x=41

combine like terms

-7x-15=41

bring the 15 over to the 41

-7x=56

divide everything by 7

-x=8

change x to a positive

x=-8

Elodia [21]
8 printers for $145 each is a total of $1160.

3 laptops for $439 is a total of $1317.

Therefore, the price of 3 laptops for $439 each cost more than 8 printers for $145 each.
