Answer:
558 weeks
Step-by-step explanation:
let x = number of weeks
this equation can be derived from the question
2 + 1x = 560
collect like terms
x = 560 - 2
x = 558
8(x2 + 2x + 1) = –3 + 8
x = –1 Plus or minus StartRoot StartFraction 5 Over 8 EndFraction EndRoot
x = –1 Plus or minus StartRoot StartFraction 4 Over 8 EndFraction EndRoot
8(x2 + 2x + 1) = 3 + 1
8(x2 + 2x) = –3
22.5 (shower) = X (variable used in place of the amount of water she uses to wash clothes) - 7.5 (the amount she used in the shower is 7.5 gallons less than she uses for washing clothes)
22.5 = X - 7.5 《 This is the equation.
Solve is by adding 7.5 to both sides to cancel out the negative 7.5 and you get (X = 30).
Answer:
403.33
Step-by-step explanation:
The price is in square yd not feet so change ft to yds
3 ft = 1 yd
12 ft = 12/3 = 4 yds
10 ft = 10/3 yds
A = l * w = 4 * 10/3 = 40/3 yd^2 = 13 1/3 yd ^2
Now multiply by the price per yd^2
13 1/3 yd^2 * 30.25 = 403.333333
Rounding to the nearest cent
403.33
Store 1: $26.62/36=0.74 per oz.
Store 2: $22.42/28=0.80 per oz
So store 1 is .06 cents cheaper than store 2
