Answer:

16 acres

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the operating cost for 1 acre.  Find that by dividing $551,520 by 20 acres.  That gives us $27,576 per acre.  Now we can set up a proportion to solve for the number of acres that have an operating cost of $441,216:

\frac{cost}{acre}:\frac{27,576}{1}=\frac{441,216}{x}

Cross multiply to get:

27576x = 441216 so

x = 16

We did not have to find the cost per acre to solve this.  We could have set up the proportion with $551,520 on the top of the ratio and 20 on the bottom and we would still have gotten the same answer.  I just figured the numbers wouldn't be as large if we divided to find the cost per unit.

Answer:

  C. 4 +√(x+5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The sign between the terms changes to form the conjugate. The radical contents are unchanged.

The conjugate of 4 -√(x+5) is 4 +√(x+5).

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The utility of a conjugate is that the product of a number and its conjugate is the difference of two squares. The squares are intended to remove an undesirable feature of the number, its imaginary part or its irrational part, for example. Here, the product of the number and its conjugate would be ...

  (a -b)(a +b) = a² -b²

  4² -(√(x+5))² = 16 -(x +5) = 11 -x . . . . no longer contains a root

Given f(g(x)): find f(g(4))
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

First, find g(4). Notice how on the first given table, when x=4, g(x)=9. Therefore, g(4)=9.

Then, find f(9). Notice how on the second given table, when x=9, f(x)=0.

Therefore, f(g(4)) is equal to 0.

I hope this helps!

katrin [286]
Multiply the 2 by 3 to get 6 square yards
Then multiply that by three to get 18 square feet
Finally times 18 by 1.5 to get 12 tiles

Therefore 12 tiles are needed to cover the floor.

A bicycle is on sale price for $300 it can be brought through a hire purchase with a deposit of $60 and 10%
Scrat [10]

Answer:

a) $26.4

b) $324

Step-by-step explanation:

Hire purchase is the purchase of an item which can be paid instalmentally.

The bicycle costs $300 for an instant purchase.

For a hire purchase, a $60 deposit must be made and the rest paid instalmentally over 10 months. An interest of 10% is included in the outstanding balance

The outstanding balance after paying deposit= $300 - $60 = $240

Hence, 10% of 240 = 10/100 × 240 = 24

An interest of $24 is added.

Therefore, a total of $240 + $24 = $264 will be paid for the next 10 months.

a) Hence, the amount to be paid in instalment each month is $264/10 = $26.4

b) the total cost of buying the bicycle by hire purchase= deposit amount + instalment price

= $60 + $264

= $324

Hence, a total of $324 will be paid for the bicycle by hire purchase.

N.B: $300 is the sale price + $24 interest
