Answer:

20 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

First start off by dividing 48 by 12 to see how many times 12 goes into 48.

48 / 12 = 4

now that you know that 12 goes into 48 4 times, multiply 4 by 5 to see how many gallons the leaky faucet will fill in 48 hours.

4 x 5 = 20

therefore the answer is 20 gallons

I hope this helps ^^

2. Solve each given equation and show your work. Tell whether each equation has one solution, an infinite number of solutions, o
Ugo [173]
Alright,

(a) 2x+4(x-1)=2
2x+4x-4=2---- Distrubution of 4(x-1)
6x-4=2---- Combining like terms
6x=6---- Making -4 equal 0 by adding +4 to both sides
x=1---- Divide the coefficiant (6)

(b) 25-x=15-(3x+10)
25-x=15-3x-10----Distribute the -1
25-x=5-3x---- Combine like terms
25=5-2x---- Make -x equal 0 by adding +x to both sides
20=-2x---- Make 5 equal zero by subtracting 5 (or adding -5) to both sides
-10=x---- Divide by the coefficiant (-2)

(c) 4x= 2x+2x+5(x-x)
4x=2x+2x+5(0)---- Distribute. Alright this might look hard but realy it is 1x-1x so the answer is 0
4x=2x+2x---- 5 times 0 is 0
4x=4x---- Combine like terms
x=x ---- divide by the coefficiant

Alright! Hope this helps! ;)

Which is the solution to the inequality?
n200080 [17]

y < –12

Solution:

Step 1: Given inequality is y + 15 < 3.

To find the solution to the inequality.

Step 2: Subtract –15 on both sides to equal the expression.

⇒ y + 15 –15 < 3 –15

Step 2: Using addition identity property, any number adding with zero gives the number itself.

⇒ y + 0 < –12

⇒ y < –12

Hence the solution to the inequality is y < –12.

Find the value of an investment of $5000 at 7% compounded continuously for 6 years
Helga [31]

Answer:

Option 4 is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

If the rate is compounded continuously, the formula used to find the future value is:

A= Pe^rt

Where A = Future Value

P= Principal amount

r = interest rate in decimal

t = time

For the given data:

A=?

P = $5000

r = 7% or 0.07

t = 6

Putting values in the above formula

A= 5000e^(0.07 *6)

A = 7609.81

So, Option 4 is correct.
