Even tho' this problem requires an inequality, let's write equations instead:

Nick's money:  $40 - ($1.50 / day)(x)              where x represents # of days
Bob's Money:   $ 9 + ($1.50 / day)(x)

Equate these two expressions:   40 - 1.50x = 9 + 1.50x

Then 31 = 3.00x, and x = 31/3 = 10 1/3 days

The two boys will have the same amount after 10 1/3 days; after that, Bob will have more (since he continues to receive an allowance and Nick continues to spend the money he already has).

5 days nick will have 32.50 dollars and Bob will have 16.5.
After 10 days nick will have 25 dollars and Bob will have 24 dollars
On the 11th day Nick will have 23.50 dollars and Bob will have 25.5 dollars. 
It will take bob 11 days to have more money than nick.

The area of a sector of a circle with a radius of 4 centimeters is 2.512 square centimeters. The estimated value of π is 3.14. T
butalik [34]
Area = (theta/360)* pi * r^2 
where theta is the angle of  the sector 
subs by your givens in the above equation 
2.512 = (theta/360) * pi * (4)^2 
theta = (2.512 * 360) /(pi*(4)^2)
theta = 18 degree

Roadsign cast of shadow that is 4 feet tall at the same time a 6 foot man standing next to the sign cast a shadow of those 2.4 f
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

10 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Road sign shadow (Rs) = 4 feets

Height of man (Hm) = 6

Man shadow (Ms) = 2.4 feets

Height of road sign (Hr) = x

Height of road sign / shadow of road sign = height of man / shadow of man

Hr/Rs = Hm / Ms

x / 4 = 6 / 2.4

Cross multiply :

4*6 = 2.4*x

24 = 2.4x

x = 24 / 2.4

x = 10 feets

Hence, height of road sign = 10 feets
