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.

Suppose f(x) = x^2 and
SpyIntel [72]

Given:

The two functions are:

f(x)=x^2

g(x)=\left(\dfrac{1}{3}x\right)^2

To find:

The statement that best compares the graph of g(x) with the graph of f(x).

Solution:

The horizontal stretch is defined as:

g(x)=f(kx)            ...(i)

If 0, the function f(x) is horizontally stretched by factor \dfrac{1}{k}.

If k>1, the function f(x) is horizontally compressed by factor \dfrac{1}{k}.

We have,

f(x)=x^2

g(x)=\left(\dfrac{1}{3}x\right)^2

Using these functions, we get

g(x)=f\left(\dfrac{1}{3}x\right)         ...(ii)

On comparing (i) and (ii), we get

k=\dfrac{1}{3}

Since 0, the function f(x) is horizontally stretched by factor \dfrac{1}{\frac{1}{3}}=3.

Hence, the correct option is D.

a rectangular prism measures 3 in by 8 in by 9 in. what is the side length of a cube with the same volume?
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

6 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rectangular prism

V = lwh       l = 8   W = 3    h = 9

  = 8(3)(9)

  = 216

Cube

V = s^{3}   where s = length of side

216 = s^{3}

s = \sqrt[3]{216}  = 6
