Answer:

After 59 months the new dryer will pay for itself.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the new clothes dryer takes 'x' months to pay for itself.

Then the operating cost of the new dryer will be = 15x

Since cost of the new dryer = $590

So, total cost of the dryer in x months = $(590 + 15x)

Now we know old dryer's operating cost is = $25 per month

So, operating cost for x months = 25x

By the time when new dryer's total cost becomes equal to the old dryer's operational cost, the new dryer will pay for itself.

Now we can get the value of x by equating the old dryer's operational cost and the new dryer's total cost.

25x = 590 + 15x

25x - 15x = 590

10x = 590

x = \frac{590}{10}

x = '59 months'

Answer:

D) 2/3 x - 8

E) -4x + 11

Step-by-step explanation:

y ∈ R | -∞ < y < ∞ just means that the range for y is all real numbers in a function. For y to be all real numbers, the function, when graphed, has to have no top or bottom limit. The only graphs without top or bottom limits are D and E.

A has a bottom limit

B has a bottom limit

C has a top limit

Amy wants to carpet a room that is 12 feet by 8 feet. How many square yards of carpet will she need to complete the room?
adelina 88 [10]
Assuming that the room is rectangle and carpet is rectangle
area=legnth times width
legnth=longer than width
12  is longer than 8
12ft=legnth
8ft=width
 
now convert to yards
1 yard=3 feet
1 foot=1/3 yard
12 ft times 1/3=4yards
8 ft times 1/3=8/3yards
multiply
 
area=4 tiimes 8/3
area=32/3
area=10 and 2/3 square yards

Tanzania [10]

Answer:

the object will fall 792 feet in 17 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

first you can do 144 multiplied by 5 because that would be 15 of those seconds next you would do 144 divided by 2 because you only need 2 seconds to reach 17 your answer would be 72 then you would do 720+72=792 so it would fall 792ft in 17 seconds
