X=Lucy´s money
y=Edy´s money
we can suggest this system of equations:
x=y+(35/100)y    ⇒x=135y/100
x+y=206.8

solve by substitution method. 
(135y/100)+y=206.8
Least common multiple=100
135y+100y=20680
235y=20680
y=20680/235=88

then:
x=135y/100=135(88)/100=118.8

Answer:
Lucy´s money=$118.8
Edy´s money=$88

To check:
Together, the girls have   saved a total of $118.8+$88=$206.8
Lucy´s savings account has: $88+(35/100)$88=$118.8, 35% more monty than Edy´s. account.     .

If a sprinkler waters 1 over 15 of a lawn in 1 over 3 hour, how much time will it take to water the entire lawn?
Feliz [49]
Now, a whole, will be 15/15 or 1 whole.

now, the sprinkler does 1/15 of the lawn in 1/3 of an hour, how long will it be to do the whole 15/15?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
lawn&hours\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
\frac{1}{15}&\frac{1}{3}\\\\
\frac{15}{15}&h
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{\quad \frac{1}{15}\quad }{\frac{15}{15}}=\cfrac{\quad \frac{1}{3}\quad }{h}\implies \cfrac{1}{15}\cdot \cfrac{15}{15}=\cfrac{\quad \frac{1}{3}\quad }{\frac{h}{1}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{1}{15}=\cfrac{1}{3}\cdot \cfrac{1}{h}\implies \cfrac{1}{15}=\cfrac{1}{3h}\implies 3h=15\implies h=\cfrac{15}{3}\implies h=5

X^4-64=0<br>The examples we did in class had solutions like "x=+-2" and "x=+-i(square root)3.​
hammer [34]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This isn't the same thing although you will get some factors that have i in them

(x^4 - 64) factors using the difference of squares.

(x^2 - 8)(x^2 + 8) Both of these factor using the difference of squares.

(x^2 - 8): factors into (x + sqrt(8) )(x - sqrt(8) )

(x^2 - 8):  factors further (x + 2*sqrt2)(x - 2sqrt(2)

(x ^2 + 8) : (x + sqrt(8)i ) (x - sqrt(8)i )

(x^2 + 8) : (x + 2sqrt(2)i) (x - 2sqrt(2)i)

Final answer

(x + 2*sqrt2)(x - 2sqrt(2)(x + 2*sqrt2)(x - 2sqrt(2)

A number cube is tossed 50 times, and a 1 is rolled 18 times. Find the experimental probability of not rolling a 1.
LiRa [457]

Answer:

16/25 = 0.64

Step-by-step explanation:

18 rolls are ones, so 32 rolls are not ones.

The experimental probability is 32/50 = 16/25 = 0.64.

Please help me out! I tried to do it but I got it wrong.
Anika [276]

This may or may not be right.

You know that they are a graduate, and the total number of graduates are 2610.

The amount of graduates receiving financial aid is 1879.


The probability that a graduate student is on financial aid is: 1879/2610 = 0.7199 or 72%
