Answer:

the number of sponges per package bought be 32.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the number of sponges per package be x

So the number of packages he bought be x - 14

And, the overall he bought 51 sponges

So

the number of packages of sponges did roger buy is

x + x - 14 = 51

2x = 51 + 14

2x = 65

x = 32.5

So the number of sponges per package bought be 32.5

The number of wolves in a wildlife preserve is estimated to have increased continually by 3% per year. If the population is now
34kurt
For the answer to the question above, <span>Well, first let us put up a functional equation. </span>
<span>Since this is an exponential function, it'll be: f(t)=54,000*1.03^t </span>
<span>But we want to know how many wolves there were 10 years ago. </span>
<span>For that, we simply "turn time around", as in: f(t)=54,00*1.03^-t </span>
<span>This displays a decreasing number of wolves, as you turn back time. </span>

<span>Now we simply calculate 54,000*1.03^-10 </span>
<span>which is approximately 40,200?</span>

A woman drives an SUV that gets 10 mi/gal (mpg). Her husband drives a hybrid that gets 50 mpg. Every week, they travel the same
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

The best option would be Number 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that they each traveled 1,000 miles a week, meaning that instead of the SUV using 100 gallons of gas, it would be using 90.9, which is 9.1 gallons less.

The hybrid will only use 20 gallons of gas in that week. Meaning together, they will be 100.9 gallons a week for 1,000 miles.

In option 2, they would still be using 100 gallons of gas for the SUV a week, except, the hybrid would only be using 12.5 gallons, which is 7.5 gallons less.

The total of those together would be 112.5 gallons a week for 1,000 miles. So, it may be a small difference between the two options, yet Option 1 is the best choice on how to save gas.
