Answer:
5 weeks
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that she works at a rate of $12 an hour, she also works 20 hours a week.
The total amount she makes per week is $240 (12 x 20). However, that is without deductions. We have to subtract $34 from the $240.
$240 - $34 = $206.
$206 is the amount she makes in a week and she wants to save $950. How many weeks does she have to save? Well, let's divide.
$950 / $206 = 4.6 weeks. However, if we have to round up to 5 weeks.
Simplified expression is 6y² - 24y - 51. Value for y=-2 is 21 and value for y=3 is -69.
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Given expression is 3y(2y-7) - 3(y - 4) - 63. Simplify it.
⇒ 6y² - 21y - 3y + 12 - 63
⇒ 6y² - 24y - 51
- Step 2: Find value of the expression for y = -2
⇒ 6y² - 24y - 51 = 6(-2)² - 24(-2) - 51 = 24 + 48 - 51 = 21
- Step 3: Find value of the expression for y = 3
⇒ ⇒ 6y² - 24y - 51 = 6(3)² - 24(3) - 51 = 54 - 72 - 51 = -69
So, the total number of balls is 11. We want to pick 2 red balls and 1 green ball. WLOG (since order doesnt matter here), we can say he picks red, green, red. That means on his first pick, he has a 
chance of picking the red ball, and he places it back in the bag. The probability of picking a green ball is 
, and then he places the ball back in the bag. The probability of picking the last red ball is the same as the last red ball example, and we simply multiply the probabilities together as per the multiplication rule to get:
Now, without replacement the order does matter. He picks a red ball, a red ball then a green ball. The probability of picking the first red ball is
, and the probability of picking the second red ball is 
and the probability of picking the green ball is
. We want to multiply thm again, as per the multiplication rule like the last problem.
Area of a triangle = 1/2 × base × height
Plug in what we know.
78 = 1/2 × b × 9¾
Multilply each side by 2 to get rid of the 1/2...
156 = b × 9¾
Write 9¾ as an improper fraction.
(9¾ = 9 + 3/4 = (9×4)/4 + 3/4 = 36/4 + 3/4 = 39/4)
156 = b × 39/4
Multiply each side by 4...
624 = b × 39
Divide each side by 39...
16 = b
Done! The length of the base of the triangle is <u>16</u> inches.
Answer:
f(x) = 26500 * (0.925)^x
It will take 7 years
Step-by-step explanation:
A car with an initial cost of $26,500 depreciates at a rate of 7.5% per year. Write the function that models this situation. Then use your formula to determine when the value of the car will be $15,000 to the nearest year.
To find the formula we will use this formula: f(x) = a * b^x. A is our initial value which in this case is $26500. B is how much the value is increasing or decreasing. In this case it is decreasing by 7.5% per year. Since the car value is decreasing we will subtract 0.075 from 1. This will result in the formula being f(x) = 26500 * (0.925)^x. Now to find the value of the car to the nearest year of when the car will be 15000 we plug 15000 into f(x). 15000 = 26500 * (0.925)^x. First we divide both side by 26500 which will make the equation: 0.56603773584=(0.925)^x. Then we will root 0.56603773584 by 0.925. This will result in x being 7.29968 which is approximately 7 years.
