Answer:

Let S = price of sweater

Let P = price of pants

S + P = 89.47 because that was the total spent

S = P - 8.53   because the sweater is 8.53 less than pants

Substitute P-8.53 in place of S in the

1st equation and solve for P

P - 8.53 + P = 89.47

2P - 8.53 = 89.47     add 8.53 to both sides

2P = 89.47 + 8.53

2P = 98.00  divide both sides by 2

P = 98.00/2

P = $49.00

S = P - 8.53

S = 49.00-8.53

S = $40.47

A sweater costs $40.47 and the pants cost $49.00

The population of coyotes in the northwestern portion of Alabama is given by the formula p (t )equals (t squared plus 100 )ln (t
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

The rate of change of the Coyote population in 2002 is 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the formula for the population of a Coyotes in the Northwestern portion of Alabama, we are to calculate rate of change of the Coyote population in the year 2002 where t = 2

The formula is given as;

P(t) = (t^2 + 100) ln (t + 2)

The rate of change refers to the first integral of the formula;

Thus we need to calculate this by the use of product formula;

The first differential of t^2 + 100 is 2t

while that of ln(t + 2) is 1/(t + 2)

P’(t) = 2t(ln (t+2)) + (t^2 + 100) (1/t+2)

Now, we substitute 2 for the value of t here.

P’(2) = 2(2)( ln (2 + 2) + (2^2 + 100)(1/(2+2))

P’(2) = 4 ln 4 + 104(1/4)

P’(2) = 4ln 4 + 26

P’(2) = 5.55 + 26 = 31.55 which is approximately 32

How do I find the answer to number 8?
Sonbull [250]
Multiply both sides of the equation by (x+1), on the right hand side the denominator then goes away and on the left hand side you get (x+1)(x+1), foil that out then just solve for x

Quadrilateral QRST is a square. If the measure of angle RQT is 3x - 6. Find the value of x.
trapecia [35]

Given that quadrilateral QRST is a square.

Each angle of a square is of 90 degrees.

Angle <RQT is also an angle of 90 degrees.

We also given angle RQT = 3x - 6.

So, we can setup an equation as 3x-6 =90.

Now, we need to solve the equation for x.

6 is being subtracted from left side.

We always apply reverse operation. Reverse operation of subtraction is addition.

So, adding 6 on both sides of the equation, we get

3x-6+6 =90+6.

3x = 96.

3 is being multipied with x, in order to remove that 3, we need to apply reverse operation of multiplication.

So, dividing both sides by 3.

\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{96}{3}

x=32 (final answer).
