Answer:
The equation x = y-8
The equation (y-8) y = 240
The first number x = 12 and second number y =20
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Explanation</u>:-
<u>Step(l)</u>:-
Let 'x' be the first number and 'y' be the second number
Given the product of two numbers is 240
Given data x y = 240 …(l)
Given data the first number is 8 less than the second number.
x = y-8...(ll)
Substitute (ll) in equation (l) , we get
(y-8) y = 240




y = -12 and y = 20
Y= -12 is not satisfied
we can choose y = 20
<u>Step(ll):</u>-
Given data x =y-8
substitute value y = 20 in x = y -8
x = 20-8 = 12
<u>Final answer</u>:-
The first number x = 12 and second number y =20
Starting from what I know (the difference between ribbons), I decided to go from the bottom and work my way up. I then noticed a pattern (each sum was three more of the previous one), and decided to keep my pattern of the three numbers but not have to do any major mental work and instead add three to the previous sum until I got to 38.

1) Iteration means a repetition of a rule.
a)
Considering that we have the following data:
Rate of increase: 5% per year
-
2) Then we can write out the following:

Plugging into n, the number of years we'll have:
Profits: $30,000 1st year
P: $31.500 2nd year
$33075 3rd year
(...) (...)
b) Since we want to know the predicted profit 15 years from the first year, then we can plug for that:

Note that we have plugged into n, n=15 years. Since the first year was $30,000 the profits.
Answer:
$0.22
Step-by-step explanation:
Now we know that 8 ounces total to $1.76. That means that in order to find how much 1 ounce costs, we will end up dividing both sides by 8
8 oz = $1.76
8 oz / 8 = $1.76 / 8
1 oz = $0.22
So, we now know that 1 oz is equal to 22 cents. You can also confirm your answer by multiple 0.22 by 8, and you'll see that you'll get 1.76
