Answer:

Luisa has $18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us solve the question

∵ Carlos has $24

∵ Carlos has 1 \frac{1}{3}  as much money as Luisa has

→ Let Luisa has x dollars

∵ Luisa has x dollars

∴ Carlos money = 1 \frac{1}{3} × x

∴ Carlos money = 1 \frac{1}{3} x

→ Change the mixed number to an improper fraction

∵ 1 \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1(3)+1}{3} = \frac{4}{3}

∴ Carlos money = \frac{4}{3} x

→ Substitute the Carlos money by 24

∵ 24 = \frac{4}{3} x

→ Multiply both sides by 3

∵ 24 × 3 = 4x

∴ 72 = 4x

→ Divide both sides by 4

∴ 18 = x

∴ Luisa has $18

What is the slope of the line in the graph? answer fast help plzzz
ziro4ka [17]

The slope can be found by using the slope formula.

Slope = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

First, we need two points on the line.

(-1, 0) and (0, 1)

x1 = -1 and y1 = 0

x2 = 0 and y2 = 1

Let's plug these values into our slope formula.

(1 - 0) / (0 - (-1)) = 1 / 1 = 1

The slope is 1

Usimov [2.4K]

Let 'x' be the distance from THE far bank   where 700 is the distance to the NEAR bank

boat one has travelled 700    (rate = 700/unit time)         boat two has travelled   x    rate = x / unit time

boat one then travels   x  + 400  more      and boat two travels   700 + (700+x -400) more    when they meet

The time is the same      rate x time = distance      distance/rate = time     equate the distances divided by the respective rates

(700 + x + 400)/700     =    (  x  +  700     +  (700+x-400) )/x

1100x + x^2 = 1400x + 700000

x^2-300x -700000 = 0                         quadratic formula yields  x = 1000  

One boat travels 700   the other   1000 whe they first meet.....width of river =   700+ 1000 = 1700 m

brilliants [131]

Answer:

Peter will pay:

  • $50 deductible
  • 20% x ($1,060 - $50) = $202
  • total $252

the insurance company will pay:

  • (total counseling cost - deductible) x 80% = ($1,060 - $50) x 80% = $808

The deductible refers to the amount of money an insured has to pay before the health insurance company starts to pay partially or completely for your health treatment. deductibles are commonly used for other types of insurance policies also, including auto insurance.
