Of the songs in Brianna's music library, 1/3 are rock songs. Of the rock songs, 7/10 feature a guitar solo. What fraction of the
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

7/30 of her music library

Step-by-step explanation:

We are looking for 7/10 of 1/3. In this case this "of" means we will multiply the two fractions. To multiply fractions, we multiply

top × top

and

bottom × bottom

1/3 × 7/10

is 1×7 on top, and

3×10 on the bottom.

= (1×7)/(3×10)

= 7/30

7/30 cannot be simplified, so that is the answer.

So you have the equation (2x+4)/-3=12
Multiply by -3 on each side. 
2x+4=-36
2x=-20
x=-10
Hope this helps.

A math teacher gets a starting salary of $30,000. IF she gets a 1.5% increase in salary each year, what will her total income be
kolezko [41]
No it is not base e.  It is 1.015.

An increase of 1.5 % =  1.015 

Year            1,             2,                       3,.........................., 30.
               30000, 3000(1.015),  30000(1.015)²,........... 30000(1.015)²⁹

Her Total Income is sum over the thirty 30 year period:

Sn =  a(r^n  - 1) / (r - 1);                a = 30000,  r = 1.015,  n = 30

Sn =  30000 ( 1.015^30  -  1) / (1.015 - 1)

      =  30000 (1.56308022 - 1) / (0.015) =  1126160.44

Total =  $ 1 126 160.44
