Answer:
1 month
Step-by-step explanation:
249 is the amount she spends for buying the kitten, (299-50=249) which she only has to pay once.
20 is the amount she has to spend every month, the rate of change.
The problem can be modeled with the general equation:
y = 20x + 249
In this equation, x the the time in months and y is the amount of money spent.
Substitute 250 for y.
y = 20x + 249
250 = 20x + 249 <= isolate x to get the number of months
1 = 20x
x = 1/20
Carol will only spent money every month, not for 1/20 of a month.
It will only take Carol 1 month to spent $250.
Check answer:
Substitute x for 1
y = 20x + 249
y = 20(1) + 249
y = 269
269 is more than 250 already.
The problem indicates that A represents the number of tablet computers sold in millions. So, if 65 million were sold, we must substitute A = 65 to the equation. Then, we find for t.
65 = 4.5t² +43.5t + 17
Solving for t using a calculator,
t = 1 and -10.67
Let's take the positive root. So, t=1.
That means the year would be 1 year after 2010. <em>Therefore, the answer is 2011.</em>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
4(x-3)2-5 = 139
(4x-12)-5=139
-20x + 60 = 139
-20x +60 - (60) = 139- 60
-20x = 79 divide both sides by -20
x = -3.95
