The equation that's been computed shows that the number of cell phones that his family can have will be 2.

<h3>How to solve the equation</h3>

From the question, it was stated that the cell phone company charges $50 plus $40 per line each month and that Luke must spend under $170 on his family's cell phone bill each month.

Let the number of cell phones that can be bought be represented by x.

The equation to solve the question will be:

50 + 40(x) < 170

50 + 40x < 170

Collect like terms

40x < 170 - 50

40x < 120

x < 120/40

x < 3

Therefore, the number of cell phones has to be less than 3. Hence, this will be 2.

Solve for t:<br>t-3(4-t)=-24​
OleMash [197]

Answer:

t = -3

Steps:

4t - 12 = -24

4t - 12 + 12 = -24 + 12

4t = -12

4t/4 = -12/4

t = -3

Can you please help with these questions? I need to finish homework by tonight.
noname [10]
Length x width is the formula.
so 18 x 18 for 7.
22 x 24 for 8.
and 8 would probably be 5 x 5 to equal 20. so the length and width would be 5 and 5 because 20 is the area

Can someone explain to me the steps how they got 2 √4^2+2x-3-2 from this question…
Naddik [55]

Step-by-step explanation:

with your square root symbol I never know what is inside the square root and what is possibly outside.

so, I can only guess and see what comes close.

f(x) = 2x² + x - 1

g(x) = sqrt(2x - 1) ??? is that so ?

h(x) = -2

2g(f(x)) + h(x)

g(f(x)) means that the whole f(x) expression is used as x in g(x).

the whole combined function is then

2×sqrt(2(2x² + x - 1) - 1) - 2

2×sqrt(4x² + 2x - 2 - 1) - 2

2×sqrt(4x² + 2x - 3) - 2

and if I am not mistaken, then this is the solution you mentioned at the beginning (if I try to read between the typos and missing info).

this is how people get to this.

do you understand it now ? or is there still something unclear ?

Dinosaur fossils are often dated by using an element other than carbon, like potassium-40, that has a longer half life (in this
Firlakuza [10]
The amount of substance left of a radioactive element of half life, t_{\frac{1}{2}} after a time, t, is given by:

N(t)=N_0\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^ \frac{t}{t_{  \frac{1}{2} }}

Given that <span>potassium-40 has a half life of approximately 1.25 billion years.

The number of years it will take for 0.1% of potassium-40 to remain is obtained as follows:

0.1=100\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^ \frac{t}{1.25}} \\  \\ \Rightarrow\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^ \frac{t}{1.25}}=0.001 \\  \\ \Rightarrow\frac{t}{1.25}\ln\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)=\ln(0.001) \\  \\ \Rightarrow \frac{t}{1.25}= \frac{\ln(0.001)}{\ln\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)} =9.966 \\  \\ t=9.966(1.25)=12.5

Therefore, </span><span>the maximum age of a fossil that we could date using 40k is 12.5 billion years.</span>
