Answer:
53 pushes
Step-by-step explanation:
Total Volume of soap = 474 mL
Volume per push = 8mL
Mimimum volume required = 50mL
The equation which represents the number of push, x that can be made :
Total volume = minimum volume + (volume per push * number of pushes)
Total volume = 50 + (8 * x)
474 ≤ 50 + 8x
474 - 50 ≤ 8x
424 ≤ 8x
53 ≤ x
The number of pushes that can be made = 53
This is the theory of algebra, to simply the expression we proceed as follows;
[sqrt(x-2)+5/sqrt(x-2)]/(x-2)
simplifying the numerator we get:
sqrt(x-2)+5/sqrt(x-2)
=[x-2+5]/sqrt(x-2)
=(x+3)/sqrt(x-2)
therefore our entire expression will be:
[(x+3)/sqrt(x-2)]/(x-2)
[(x+3)/(x-2)^(1/2)]*1/(x-2)
applying the law if indices we get
=(x+3)/(x-2)^(3/2)

Answer:
Michael and Carlos will have the same amount after 7 weeks
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume the total number of baseball cards that Carlos and Michael need to have to be equal is y, and the amount of time in terms of weeks that it will take for this to be achieved is x.
The following expressions can be derived
For Carlos to achieve y, he will need 85 and an addition of 10 per week (x):
y=85+(10x)..........equation 1
For Michael to achieve y, he will need 120 and an addition of 5 per week (x):
y=120+(5x)..........equation 2
Equating equation 1 and 2 to solve for x
85+10x=120+5x
10x-5x=120-85
5x/5=35/5
x=7
Number of weeks it will take Michael and Carlos to have the same amount=x=7 weeks
