Let s represent the number of students surveyed.
.. 0.40s play baseball
.. 0.60*(0.40s) play soccer and baseball
.. 0.60*0.40s = 12 . . . . . . . 12 students play soccer and baseball
.. s = 12/(0.60*0.40) = 12/0.24 = 50
Jonah surveyed 50 students.
_____
This is the number of students required to match Jonah's calculations.
Answer: She started with $160.
It will take 6 weeks before she has less than half of what she originally invested.
Step-by-step explanation:
If her money is decreasing in value by 11% each week, it means that the rate at which it is decreasing is exponential.
We would apply the formula for exponential decay which is expressed as
A = P(1 - r)^t
Where
A represents the value of the investment after t weeks.
t represents the number of weeks.
P represents the initial value of the investment.
r represents rate of depreciation.
From the information given,
A = $142.40
r = 11% = 11/100 = 0.11
t = 1
Therefore
142.40 = P(1 - 0.11)^1
142.40 = P(0.89)
P = 142.4/0.89
P = 160
For her to have half of what she invested originally, then
80 = 160(0.89)^t
80/160 = (0.89)^t
0.5 = (0.89)^t
Taking log of both sides to base 10
Log 0.5 = log0.89^t = tlog0.89
- 0.3010 = - 0.051t
t = - 0.3010/- 0.051
t = 5.9
Approximately 6 weeks
If i try i think its the square root of 2 is irrational...
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 3.25x + 1.25
1.25 is y-intercept
3.25 is the slope of a graph.
If x = 0, then y = 1.25
(0, 1.25)
If x = 3, then y = 3.25(3) + 1.25 = 11
(3, 11)
Answer:
Option (3).
Step-by-step explanation:
Option (1).
3(x - 1) = x + 2(x + 1) + 1
3x - 3 = x + 2x + 2 + 1
3x - 3 = 3x + 3 [Not True]
Therefore, this equation is not an identity.
Option (2).
x - 4(x + 1) = -3(x + 1) + 1
x - 4x - 4 = -3x - 3 + 1
-3x - 4 = -3x - 2 [Not true]
Therefore, this equation is not an identity.
Option (3).
2x + 3 = 
2x + 3 = 2x + 1 + 2
2x + 3 = 2x + 3 [True]
Therefore, this equation is an identity.
Option (4).
3x - 1.5 = 3x + 3 - x - 2
3x - 1.5 = 2x + 1 [Not true]
Therefore, this equation is not an identity.
