Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by writing out w in terms of x. After one year, there is 1.08*x dollars in the account. x dollars are then deposited, giving us a total of 1.08*x + x (normally we would simplify this to 2.08 but looking at the answers this is not a good idea.) Next, multiply by 1.08 to account for the 2nd year's interest. This brings to total to w = 1.08(1.08*x + x) = (1.08^2)*x + 1.08*x. Factoring out x, we are left with w = (1.08^2 + 1.08) * x. Dividing both sides by (1.08^2 + 1.08), we are left with x = w/(1.08^2 + 1.08) so the answer is d.
Answer:
3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
To have the best chance of pulling a pair with the same color you should try to get a pair of black socks. There is a 3/5 chance of pulling a black sock so this means for every 5 socks you pull you get 3 black socks or 2 navy socks. Either way you will get a pair of socks with the same color. (Double check to make sure I'm correct)
Each straw is 4-1/8 inches long.
You have one gigantic piece of straw material, 123-3/4 inches long.
How many straws can you cut it up to make ?
===> (123-3/4) divided by (4-1/8) straws.
Each one costs $0.015 to make.
So, once you find the number of short straws you have,
multiply
===> (the number of short straws) x ($0.015) .
That'll tell you how much it costs to make all of them.
Now you know how to do it on your own.
If you don't get 30 straws and $0.45 , please try again.
Answer:
6 packages
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the student needs a total of 3/4 pounds of modeling clay we need to calculate how much is 3/4 of 8 since that is the denominator being used to calculate each individual package of clay. Since 3/4 is equal to 0.75 we can simply multiply this by 8 to calculate the total amount of clay needed.
8 * 0.75 = 6
This means that the student will need 6/8 pounds of clay. Since each package brings 1/8 pounds this means that we would need a total of 6 packages in order to have enough clay.
Answer:
C. f = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>→Subtract 5 from both sides:</u>
3f + 5 = 32
- 5 - 5
_________
3f = 27
<u>→Divide both sides by 3:</u>
f = 9
