Answer:

3 bags per weekday

Step-by-step explanation:

Total bags of leaves at the end of the week = 26 bags

Bags of leaves she fills over the weekend = 11 bags

Bags of leaves she fills during weekdays = x bags

Total bags of leaves at the end of the week = Bags of leaves she fills over the weekend + Bags of leaves she fills during weekdays

26 = 11 + x

Subtract 11 from both sides

26 - 11 = 11 - 11 + x

15 = x

x = 15 bags

If she fills the same number of bags with leaves on each of the 5 weekdays.

how many bags she filled each weekday.

Bags she filled each weekday = Total Bags of leaves she fills during weekdays / 5 weekdays

= 15 bags / 5 weekdays

= 3 bags per weekday

When a number is increased by 2.8%, the result is 56. What is the original number to
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

The original number was 54.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a number is increased by 2.8%, then it is 102.8% of it's original number.

In mathematics, "of" in virtually all cases means "multiplied by".

Therefore, we do the opposite:

1. Convert to a decimal.

102.8% = 1.028

2. Divide by the decimal.

56 \div 1.028 = 54.47

3. Round it to the nearest tenth.

54.47 rounds to 54.5.

If neither a nor b are equal to zero, which answer most accurately describes the product of (a + bi)(a - bi)?
Scrat [10]

Answer:  the correct option is

(D) The imaginary part is zero.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that neither a nor b are  equal to zero.

We are to select the correct statement that accurately describes the following product :

P=(a+bi)(a-bi)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

We will be using the following formula :

(x+y)(x-y)=x^2-y^2.

From product (i), we get

P\\\\=(a+bi)(a-bi)\\\\=a^2-(bi)^2\\\\=a^2-b^2i^2\\\\=a^2-b^2\times (-1)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~[\textup{since }i^2=-1]\\\\=a^2+b^2.

So, there is no imaginary part in the given product.

Thus, the correct option is

(D) The imaginary part is zero.
