The rate Ritz can eat apples is 8/15 apples per minute.
Set the rate (which is measured apples / minutes) equal to 16 apples / t minutes.
(8/15) = (16/t)
Cross multiply.
16*15 = 8t
t = 20
The answer is 30 minutes. You could solve the problem with basic reasoning as well. 16 is twice the number of apples as 8, so the time it takes to eat them will be double 15 minutes.
Answer:
It takes 22.52 years for the balance to triple in value.
Step-by-step explanation:
Continuous compounding:
The amount of money earned using continuous compounding is given by the following equation:

In which A(0) is the initial amount of money and r is the interest rate, as a decimal.
Interest rate of 5%.
This means that
, and thus:



Time for the balance to triple?
This is t for which
. So







It takes 22.52 years for the balance to triple in value.
Answer:
310
but it doesnt show as a possible answer from your list
Step-by-step explanation:
5x60 is 300
then add 10 to 300
you get 310
3(2x-4)=2(x+4)
6x-12=2x+8
6x-2x=8+12
4x=20
x=20/4
x=5
Answer:
Slope = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
