Answer:

The flea treatment is $2.05 cheaper at Pet Store 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pet store 1

Regular price = $33

40% off the regular price

= 40% of $33

= 0.4 × 33

= $13.2

25% off the regular price

= 25% of $33

= 0.25 × 33

= $8.25

Total paid = $33 - $13.2 - $8.25

= $11.55

Pet store 2

Regular price = $34

55% off of the regular price

= 55% of $34

= 0.55 × 34

= $18.7

5% off of the regular price

= 5% of $34

= 0.05 × 34

= $1.7

Total paid = $34 - $18.7 - $1.7

= $13.6

Difference in price = $13.6 - $11.55

= $2.05

The flea treatment is $2.05 cheaper at Pet Store 1.

Justin is on a road trip. Over the past two days, he’s driven a total distance of 504 miles at an average speed of 56 miles/hour

irakobra [83]

Recall d = rt, distance = rate * time.

now, he has a speed rate of 56 mph for a distance of 504

$\bf d=rt\implies 504=56t\implies \cfrac{504}{56}=t\implies \stackrel{hours}{9}=t$

so, at that speed the whole driving time is 9 hours then. Ok, he drove 2 hours today, that means he drove 7 yesterday, 9 - 2.

how many miles is it for 7 hours at 56mph? d = rt ---> d = 56 * 7

that many miles he drove yesterday.

ln(y+1)-lny=1+3lnx . Express y in terms of x, in a form not involving logarithms. (4 marks, Maths CIE A level)

Delicious77 [7]

$remember$
$ln(x)=log_e(x)$
$and$
$log_x(a)-log_x(b)= log_x( \frac{a}{b} )$
$and$
$log_a(b)=c$ means $a^c=b$
$and$
$blog(a)=log(a^b)$

$so$

$ln(y+1)-ln(y)=1+3ln(x)$
$ln( \frac{y+1}{y} )=1+ln(x^3)$

$minus$ $ln(x^3)$ $from$ $both$ $sides$

$ln( \frac{y+1}{y}-ln(x^3) )=1$
$ln( \frac{y+1}{yx^3})=1$
$log_e( \frac{y+1}{yx^3})=1$

$translate$

$e^1=\frac{y+1}{yx^3}$
$e=\frac{y+1}{yx^3}$

$times$ $both$ $sides$ $by$ $yx^3$

$eyx^3=y+1$

$minus$ $y$ $from$ $both$ $sides$

$eyx^3-y=1$
$y(ex^3-1)=1$

$divide$ $both$ $sides$ $by$ $(ex³-1)$

$y= \frac{1}{ex^3-1}$

Find x and y for the following problem.

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

x = 5/4

y = 7/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The smaller triangle and the larger one are similar, so the sides are proportional.

(x+5)/5 = 10/8

x/5 + 1 = 1/4 + 1 . . . . . divide it out

x/5 = 1/4 . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 1

x = 5/4 . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 5

___

For y, you can do exactly the same computations, replacing every instance of 5 with a 7. Then you get ...

y = 7/4

A certain element has a half life of 2.5 billion years. a. You find a rock containing a mixture of the element and lead. You det

sashaice [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For a first order decay, fraction remaining = 0.5n where n = number of half lives elapsed.

fraction remaining = 55% = 0.55

0.55 = 0.5n

log 0.55 = n log 0.5

-0.2596 = -0.301 n

n = 0.8625 = # of half lives elapsed

0.8625 half lives x 2.5 billion years/half live = 2.16 billion years have elapsed = age of the rock

b) 0.15 = 0.5n

log 0.15 = n log 0.5

-0.824 = -0.301 n

n = 2.74 half lives

2.5 billion years/half life x 2.74 half lives = 6.85 billion years = age of rock
