Answer:

Each Jean cost $22.99

Step-by-step explanation:

First you would subtract the cost of the shirt from the total.

108.95-16.99=91.96

Then you would divide the 91.96 by 4 to get the cost for each Jean.

91.96/4=22.99

j=$22.99

A home gardener estimates that 24 apple trees will have an average yield of 104 apples per tree. But because of the size of the
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

The farmer should plant 14 additional trees, for maximum yield.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Trees = 24

Yield = 104

x \to additional\ trees

So, we have:

Trees = 24 + x

Yield = 104 - 2x

Required

The additional trees to be planted for maximum yield

The function is:

f(x) = Trees * Yield

f(x) = (24 + x) * (104 - 2x)

Open bracket

f(x) = 24 * 104 + 104x - 24 * 2x - x * 2x

f(x) = 2796 + 104x - 48x - 2x^2

f(x) = 2796 + 56x - 2x^2

Rewrite as:

f(x) = - 2x^2 + 56x + 2796

Differentiate

f'(x) = -4x + 56

Equate f'(x) = -4x + 56 to 0 and solve for x to get the maximum of x

-4x + 56 = 0

-4x =- 56

Divide by -4

x =14

The farmer should plant 14 additional trees, for maximum yield.

Manuel has $600 in a savings account at the beginning of the summer. He wants to have at least $300 in the account at the end of
stiks02 [169]
The answer to this question is 600-28w > 300. This inequality can be described as $600 (money in the savings account) subtracted by $28w (withdrawal of $28 a week for food) should be greater than $300. It proves that the money will not drop below $300.

Bill charges $12 per hour for a plumbing job. Write the equation that shows the relationship between the numbers of hours Bill w
yarga [219]

Answer:

m = 12h

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Bill charges $12 per hour, it implies for every hour he charges $12. Therefore, the amount of money he makes, m, is dependent on the number of hours he works, h. The higher the number of hours, the more his money. And vice versa.

So that;

m = 12h

Thus if Bill works for 6 hours, his amount of money would be;

m = 12 (6)

   = 72

m = $72

Bill would make $72 after working for 6 hours.

Answers:  
_____________________________________________________
   Part A)  " (3x + 4) " units  . 
_____________________________________________________
   Part B)  "The dimensions of the rectangle are:

                             " (4x + 5y) " units ;  <u>AND</u>:  " (4x − 5y)"  units."
_____________________________________________________

Explanation for  Part A):
_____________________________________________________

Since each side length of a square is the same; 
   
    Area = Length * width = L * w ;  L = w  = s = s ;

      in which:  " s = side length" ;

So, the Area of a square, "A"  = L * w = s * s = s² ;

{<u>Note</u>:  A "square" is a rectangle with 4 (four) equal sides.}.

→  Each side length, "s", of a square is equal.

Given:  s² = "(9x² + 24x + 16)" square units ;

Find "s" by factoring: "(9x² + 24x + 16)" completely:

   →  " 9x² + 24x + 16 ";

Factor by "breaking into groups" :

"(9x² + 24x + 16)"  = 

    →  "(9x² + 12x) (12x + 16)" ;
_______________________________________________________

Given:   " (9x² + 24x + 16) " ; 
_______________________________________________________
Let us start with the term:
_______________________________________________________

" (9x² + 12x) " ; 

    →  Factor out a "3x" ;  → as follows:
_______________________________________

    → " 3x (3x + 4) " ; 

Then, take the term:
_______________________________________
    → " (12x + 16) " ;

And factor out a "4" ;   →  as follows:
_______________________________________

    → " 4 (3x + 4) " 
_______________________________________
We have:

" 9x² + 24x + 16 " ;

    =  " 3x (3x + 4)  +  4(3x + 4) " ;
_______________________________________
Now, notice the term:  "(3x + 4)" ; 

We can "factor out" this term:

3x (3x + 4)  +  4(3x + 4)  = 

     →  " (3x + 4) (3x + 4) " .  → which is the fully factored form of:

                                                   " 9x² + 24x + 16 "  ; 
____________________________________________________
     →  Or; write:  "  (3x + 4) (3x + 4)" ; as:  " (3x + 4)² " .
____________________________________________________
     →  So,  "s² = 9x² + 24x + 16 " ; 

Rewrite as:  " s² = (3x + 4)² " .

     →  Solve for the "positive value of "s" ; 

     →  {since the "side length of a square" cannot be a "negative" value.}.
____________________________________________________
     →  Take the "positive square root of EACH SIDE of the equation; 
              to isolate "s" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "s" ;

     →  ⁺√(s²)  =  ⁺√[(3x + 4)²]   '

To get:

     →  s  = " (3x + 4)" units .
_______________________________________________________

Part A):  The answer is:  "(3x + 4)" units.
____________________________________________________

Explanation for Part B):

_________________________________________________________<span>

The area, "A" of a rectangle is:

    A = L * w ;  

 in which "A" is the "area" of the rectangle;
                "L" is the "length" of the rectangle; 
                "w" is the "width" of the rectangle; 
_______________________________________________________
  Given:  " A = </span>(16x² − 25y²) square units" ;  
   
       →  We are asked to find the dimensions, "L" & "w" ;
       →  by factoring the given "area" expression completely:
____________________________________________________
  → Factor:  " (16x² − 25y²) square units " completely '

Note that:  "16" and: "25" are both "perfect squares" ;
      
We can rewrite: " (16x² − 25y²) "  ;   as:

       =   " (4²x²)  −  (5²y²) " ; and further rewrite the expression:
________________________________________________________
Note:  
________________________________________________________
" (16x²) " ;  can be written as:  "(4x)² " ;

 ↔ " (4x)²  =  "(4²)(x²)" = 16x² "


Note:  The following property of exponents:

         →  (xy)ⁿ = xⁿ yⁿ ;    →  As such:  " 16x² = (4²x²) = (4x)² " . 
_______________________________________________________
Note:
_______________________________________________________

     →   " (25x²) " ;  can be written as:  " (5x)² " ; 

        ↔   "( 5x)²  =  "(5²)(x²)" = 25x² " ; 

Note:  The following property of exponents:

         →  (xy)ⁿ = xⁿ yⁿ ;    →  As such:  " 25x² = (5²x²) = (5x)² " . 
______________________________________________________

→  So, we can rewrite:  " (16x² − 25y²) " ;  

as:  " (4x)² − (5y)² " ;   
 
    → {Note:  We substitute: "(4x)² "  for "(16x²)" ; & "(5y)² "  for "(25y²)" .} . ; 
_______________________________________________________
→  We have:  " (4x)² − (5y)² " ;

→  Note that we are asked to "factor completely" ; 

→  Note that:  " x² − y² = (x + y) (x − y) " ;

      → {This property is known as the "<u>difference of squares</u>".}.

→ As such:  " (4x)² − (5y)² " = " (4x + 5y) (4x − 5y) " .
_______________________________________________________
Part B):  The answer is:  "The dimensions of the rectangle are:

                              " (4x + 5y) " units ;  AND:  " (4x − 5y)"  units."

Ethel Meyer sells wheelchairs. SHE EARNS AN 11 PERCENT COMMISSION ON THEE FIRST $5,000 AN 14 PERCENT ON ALL SALES OVER $5000.HOW
sergeinik [125]
Ok so Ethel starts off with 11% of $5,000 that is $550 of commission
and 14% on sales above 5,000  for 14,000 all of her commission would be 14% that means she would get $1,000 because 14% of 14,000 is 1,000
hope this helped.
