Answer:

260 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

An estimate of 26.5​% of the water used each day is for cleaning and a family uses 68.9 gallons of water a day for cleaning​,

Percentage of water used for cleaning= 26.5%

Gallons of water used for cleaning= 68.9

Let the number of gallons used everyday be represented by g. This will give:

26.5% of g = 68.9

26.5/100 × g = 68.9

0.265 × g = 68.9

0.265g = 68.9

Divide both side by 0.265

0.265g/0.265 = 68.9/0.265

g= 260

260 gallons of water are used everyday

Natali5045456 [20]

The right system of equations to describe the situation would be on the form:

x1 = 8000 + y1*t

and

x2 = 8000 + y2*t

where x1 and x2 represents the total money of Imogene and her friend respectively at the end of t years.

Now for the value of amount earned, y1 and y2:

y1=8000*0.08

y2=2000*√(t-2)

A movie streaming website charges an initial fee of $80, plus $4 for each movie that is streamed. How many movies must be stream
pochemuha

Answer:

80 movies must be streamed.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the average cost, you must divide the total cost by the number of movies watched.

When you watch 1 movie, you pay the initial fee of $80 plus a $4 purchase of the film.

The equation is shown as such:

average cost = (total cost)/(number of movies)

Your total cost can be represented as 4x + 80, while the number of movies is represented as x.

You want the average to equal 5, so your equation is shown as follows:

5 = (4x+80)/x

simplifying this, we get

5 = 4 + \frac{80}{x}

which can then be simplified to

1 = \frac{80}{x}

X = 80 movies.
