Answer:
Rose bought 14 packages of granola bars.
Step-by-step explanation:
Total bill = 1 bag of potatoes + x amount of packages of granola bars
Total bill = $74.25
1 bag of potatoes = $6.00
1 package of granola bar = 5.25
We set the equation to:
74.25 = 6.00 + 5.25x
Subtract 6.00 from both sides:
68.25 = 5.25x
Divide both sides by 5.25 to leave x by itself
68.25/5.25 = 5.25x/5.25
13 = x
This means Rose bought 13 packages of granola bars.
Let's recheck our work by inputting x = 13 into the equation:
74.25 = 6.00 + 5.25(13)
74.25 = 6.00 + 68.25
74.25 = 74.25
Answer:
(a+b)^2+(a-b)^2=2(a^2+b^2)
expanding:
a² + 2ab + b² + a² -2ab + b² = 2a² + 2b²
2a² + 2b² = 2a² + 2b²
Let x = number of years between 1990 and 2000.

Initial population = 227
Average yearly rate of change = -19.76
The linear function that models the population is
y₁ = 227 - 19.76x
Bloater fish
Initial population = 1052
Average yearly rate of change = -92.57
The linear function that models the population is
y₂ = 1052 - 92.57x
When the two populations are equal, then y₁ = y₂.
That is
227 - 19.76x = 1052 - 92.57x
(92.57 - 19.76)x = 1052 - 227
72.81x = 825
x = 11.33 years
= 11 years, 0.33*12 months
= 11 years, 4 months
Add x to 1990 to obtain the year April 2011.
Answer:
x = 11.33 years.
This occurs in April 2001.
The answer is $654.06.
5.5% of $575 is $31.63. 575 x 0.055 = 31.63
This means that in one year he earns $31.63. In two years it will be $63.25 (31.63 x 2 = 63.25)
Then in half a year it will be $15.81 (31.63/2 = 15.81)
Finally add 15.81 and 63.25 to get $79.06 which you then add to the initial $575 to get the total amount earned in 2 1/2 years which is $654.06.
