Armando's carpet has an area of 220 square feet. He hires the Carpet Pro carpet cleaning service, which is able to clean 9 squar

e feet of his carpet every minute. Therefore, in the first minute, CarpetPro is able to clean 9 square feet of Armando's carpet (leaving 211 square feet remaining to be cleaned). In the second minute, the cleaner is again able to clean 9 square feet of carpet (leaving 202 square feet to be cleaned), etc. Which of the following functions expresses the number of square feet that still remain to be cleaned after t minutes from the time that the carpet cleaner began cleaning this carpet.
a. A(t) = 220 - 9
b. A(t) = 220 - 0.1
c. A(t) = 220(0.1)
d. A(t) = 220(0.96)
e. A(t) 220 - 0.96

<u>Answer:</u>

The answer is A

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The answer needs to be in slope-intercept form or y=mx+b because the amount of carpet being cleaned every minute is a constant decrease of 9 square feet.

So our b value (or how much carpet cleaned at 0 minutes) is 220

And our m value (or slope or how much carpet is being cleaned every minute) is 9

So if we plug the variables with the tangible numbers we get A(t) = -9x+220 or A(t) = 220-9x.

A train leaves Los Angeles at 2 p.m. heading north at 50 mph. If the next train leaves three hours later and also heads north at
Mamont248 [21]
Since the first train has been travelling for 3 hours, we have the following equations:
d=50t+3*50=50t+150
d=60t

We want to know when they will be equal, so set these equal to eachother:
60t=50t+150
10t=150
t=15

So 15 hours after the second train leaves, they will be at the same distance. This is at 8AM since the second train leaves at 5PM.

PLZZ HELP ME If there are 14 green Skittles, how many yellow ones are there?
gulaghasi [49]
<span>Let's look at the information that you do have.
y = yellow
g = green

g + y = 38
</span><span>g = 38 - y

If there are 14 green skittles,then we know that:
</span>14 + y = 38
14 = 38 - y<span>
so, we can then do the equation:
38 - 14 = y
38 - 14 = 24
y = 24
</span>
So, the answer is 24 green skittles.
