Answer:

Answer in explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use a number line to explain this subtraction.

The first thing to do is to locate the number 7 on the number line. This should be located to the right of the number line.

Then, since we are subtracting, we need to count left from the position of interest. So we will count 12 integers to the left of 7.

If things are right, we would land at -5

If it was a case of addition, we will need to keep counting right from the position of origin

HELP ASAPJennifer and Chris completed some chores and split the earnings in the ratio 3:2. Jennifer earned $48.

elixir [45]

Let the total earnings be = x

Jennifer and Chris split the earnings in the ratio 3:2

Jennifer earned = $48

$\frac{3x}{5}=48$

$3x=240$

x=80

Hence total earnings are $80

(a) Chris earning is = $\frac{2x}{5}=\frac{2*80}{5}=32$

Hence, Chris earns $32

(b) Jennifer spends 30% of her earnings on a book.

So, price of the book = $\frac{30}{100}\times48$

Price of book = $14.40

(c) Jennifer also buys a magazine for = $5.40

So, total money Jennifer spent on book and magazine = 14.40+5.40=19.80

Money left with Jennifer = 48-19.80= $28.20

In fractions = $\frac{28.20}{48}$

or multiplying the numerator and denominator by 10, we get

$\frac{282}{480}$ = $\frac{47}{80}$

(d) Let the original price of the shirt = x

reduction percentage on x= 40%

Price paid after reduction = 16.80

$\frac{40x}{100}=16.80$

$40x=1680$

$x=42$

Hence, the original price of the shirt was $42.

After years of maintaining steady population of 32,000 the population of town begins to grow exponentially. After 1 year and an

GuDViN [60]

Answer: y = 32,000(1.08)^c

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the initial population

P = 32000

t = 1 year

R = 8%

Y = 34,560

To predict y the number of people living in town after x years

t = x

Y = P(1 + 8%)^t

Y = 32000( 1.08)^x

Simplify (2z^5)(12z^3)/4z^4

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

$6z^{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question an expression,

$\frac{ (2z^5)(12z^3)}{4z^4}$

Step 1

Apply exponential "product rule"

$x^{m}x^{n}=x^{m+n}$

$\frac{ 12(2)z^5)(z^3)}{4z^4}$

$\frac{ (24)z^5)(z^3)}{4z^4}$

$\frac{ 24(z^{(5+3)})}{4z^4}$

$\frac{ 24(z^{8})}{4z^4}$

Step 2

Apply exponential " divide rule"

$\frac{x^{m}}{x^{n}}=x^{m-n}$

$\frac{24/4(z^{8})}{z^4}$

$\frac{6(z^{8})}{z^4}$

$\frac{6(z^{8-4})}{1}$

$6z^{4}$
