Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Laura painted her room with pink paint that was made by mixing paint at a ratio of 5 parts white paint to 2 parts red paint.

Suppose Laura has 15 parts of white paint. This is thrice the amount Laura needs (because $15:5=3$ ), so she has to have

$2\cdot 3=6$

parts of red paint.

Hence, if Laura combines 15 parts white and 3 parts red paint, then she will not create the same shade of pink as she used.

Franco and Marcia getting high speed Internet access at the same time. Francos provider charges $60 for installation and $42.95

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

4 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Franco's provider = 60 + 42.95x

Marshal's provider = 57.95x

Where,

x = number of months

Equate both charges

Franco's provider = Marshal's provider

60 + 42.95x = 57.95x

Subtract 42.95x From both sides

60 + 42.95x - 42.95x = 57.95x - 42.95x

60 = 15x

Divide both sides by 15

60 / 15 = 15x / 15

4 = x

x = 4 Months

Franco and Marshal would have paid the same amount for high-speed Internet service after 4 months

which function grows at fastest rate for increasing values of x? h(x) = 6x^2+1 , f(x) = 9x +14, g(x)= 4^x

mezya [45]

Hi there! The answer is g(x) = 4^x.

The function g(x) is an exponential function, and these functions grow faster than linear or quadratic formulas.

choli [55]

Answer:

The number of children's tickets sold was 31 and the number of adult tickets sold was 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ---> the number of children's tickets sold

y ---> the number of adult tickets sold

we know that

the theater sold 33 tickets

so

$x+y=33$ -----> equation A

the theater made a total of $158.50

so

$4.50x+9.50y=158.50$ ----> equation B

Solve the system by graphing

Remember that the solution of the system is the intersection point both graphs

using a graphing tool

The solution is the point (31,2)

see the attached figure

therefore

The number of children's tickets sold was 31 and the number of adult tickets sold was 2
