Answer:

Jay started with $148.5 and Kay with $24.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

With the information provided you know that Jay had 6 times as much money as Kay wich can be expressed as:

J=6K, where

J is the money Jay had

K is the money Kay had

Also, you know that  Jay gave Kay $33 and Jay now has twice as much money as Kay, which would be:

J-33=2(K+33)

Now, you can replace J=6K in this equation and solve for K:

6K-33=2K+66

6K-2K=66+33

4K=66

K=24.75

Then, you can replace the value of K in J=6K:

J=6*24.75

J=148.5

According to this, the answer is that Jay started with $148.5 and Kay with $24.75.

Find the simplified product:<br> sqrt 2x^2 * sqrt18^5
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

1944x^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

sqrt 2x^2 * sqrt18^5

= sqrt2x^2 * (sqrt(9^5*2^5))

= sqrt 2 x^2 * (sqrt9^5 * sqrt 2^5)

= sqrt2 x^2 * (243* sqrt2^5)

= 2^0.5 (243 * 2^2.5) x^2

= 2^3 * 243 x^2

= 1944x^2.
