Simplifying

0.5p + -3.45 = -1.2

Reorder the terms:

-3.45 + 0.5p = -1.2

Solving

-3.45 + 0.5p = -1.2

Solving for variable 'p'.

Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '3.45' to each side of the equation.

-3.45 + 3.45 + 0.5p = -1.2 + 3.45

Combine like terms: -3.45 + 3.45 = 0.00

0.00 + 0.5p = -1.2 + 3.45

0.5p = -1.2 + 3.45

Combine like terms: -1.2 + 3.45 = 2.25

0.5p = 2.25

Divide each side by '0.5'.

p = 4.5

Simplifying

p = 4.5

kramer

Answer:

12 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t represent time taken by code to sort an array of 24 elements.

We have been given that an algorithm takes 4 seconds to sort an array of 8 elements. We are asked to find the time it will take for same code to sort an array of 24 elements.

We will use proportions to solve our given problem.

$\frac{\text{Time}}{\text{Array of elements}}=\frac{4}{8}$

$\frac{t}{24}=\frac{4}{8}$

$\frac{t}{24}\cdot 24=\frac{4}{8}\cdot 24$

$t=\frac{4}{1}\cdot 3$

$t=12$

Therefore, it will take 12 seconds for the same code to sort an array of 24 elements.

What is the sum of this infinite geometric series? 1/4, 1/5, 4/25, 16/125

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given infinite geometric series

1/4, 1/5, 4/25, 16/125, ...

We see that

a = 1/4
r = 4/5

Sum of the series

S = a*1/(1 -r)
S = 1/4*1/(1 - 4/5) = 1/4*1/(1/5) = 1/4*5 = 5/4

Scuba diving in the reef will cost $120 Australian dollars I have $118 US dollars in my pocket use the equation y = 1.03x where

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

Yes,he can go to scuba diving

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the has $118 american dollars

Also given that the relation betweeen the australian and american currency is y = 1.03x where y is the amount in australian currency and x is the amount in the american currency.

Now we have x= 118.

$y=1.03\times118=121.54$

So the guy has $121.54 Australian dollars and the scuba diving is $120 Australian dollars.Since it cost's less he can afford the scuba diving.
