A construction crew has just built a new road. They built the road at a rate of 3 kilometers per week. They built 93.75 kilometers of road. How many weeks did it take them?

Any percentage can be written as that number divided by 100. As a decimal, you find that quotient. You can quickly divide any number by 10 by moving the decimal place to the left for every 0 in that multiple of 10. 100 has 2 zeros, so all you need to do to divide by 100 is to move the decimal place 2 places to the left. Therefore, 60% is .6 as a decimal.

Let's say the number we want to find is x. In word problems, "of" indicates multiplication, so 60% of our number would be 6x.

We then add our number to that, giving us .6x + x

We know the result is 160, so

.6x + x = 160

Since any number multiplied by 1 is itself, that x can be written as 1x.

.6x + 1x = 160

Now, we combine our like terms; we add the numbers in front of the x's (aka coefficients).

(.6 + 1)x = 160

1.6x = 160

We want x by itself. 1.6 is multiplied by our number, so to undo multiplication, we do division. This leaves us with

x = 160/1.6

x=100

According to the solving time will they take together to wax the same car 16 minutes

The minute is a unit of time usually equal to 160 (the first sexagesimal fraction) of an hour, or 60 seconds.

Let's assume that Andrea takes x minutes to wax the car. Then Mathew takes x/2 minutes to wax the same car since he waxes twice as fast as Andrea.

We know that Andrea takes 24 minutes to wax the car. So we can substitute this value in the equation and solve for x.

x = 24 * 2 = 48

So Andrea takes 48 minutes to wax the car alone.

Now we can use the formula:

1/x + 1/(x/2) = 1/t

where t is the time taken by both of them together to wax the same car.

Substituting x = 48, we get:

1/48 + 1/24 = 1/t

Solving for t, we get:

t = 16minutes

The deli needs to sell the tuna salad at a price of R2.33 per kg to achieve a profit of 40% of the selling price after 5kg spoilage.

A desired profit also known as target profit means expected amount of profit that the managers of a business expect to achieve by the end of a designated accounting period.

First, let's calculate the cost of the tuna salad the deli purchased:

= 45kg x R1.48/kg

= R66.60

How much tuna salad the deli has left after spoilage:

= 45kg - 5kg

= 40kg

To achieve a profit of 40% of the selling price, the selling price should be 140% of the cost price: which is:

= 140% of cost price

= 1.4 x R66.60

= R93.24

To find the price per kilogram, we divide the selling price by the remaining amount of tuna salad:

= Selling price / Remaining amount of tuna salad

= R93.24 / 40kg

= R2.33/kg

The capacity of the mug is 1.2. The capacity of the mug can be found by using the equation C = (3/4) ÷ (5/8).

It is the maximum amount of output that can be produced in a given period of time. Capacity is usually expressed in terms of units per unit of time, such as gallons per minute or passengers per hour.

In this equation, 3/4 represents the amount of water in the mug, and 5/8 represents the amount the mug is full.

Let the capacity of the mug be x.

Given,

Mug is 5/8 full and contains 3/4 of water

So, 5/8 of the mug is filled with water

Therefore,

5/8 of x = 3/4

(5/8 )x = (3/4)

x = (3/4) × (8/5)

x = (24/20)

x = 1.2

Therefore, the capacity of the mug is 1.2.

Answer:$163.68

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the formula for compound interest to solve this problem:

A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt)

where:

A = final amount ($600,000)

P = initial amount (unknown)

r = interest rate (8%)

n = number of times interest is compounded per year (12 for monthly)

t = time in years (25)

Substituting in the values, we get:

$600,000 = P(1 + 0.08/12)^(12*25)

Simplifying:

$600,000 = P(1.00666666666667)^300

Dividing both sides by (1.00666666666667)^300:

P = $600,000 / (1.00666666666667)^300

Using a calculator, we get:

P = $163.68

Therefore, we would need to invest $163.68 each month at a rate of 8% compounded monthly to have a total of $600,000 saved in 25 years.

The composite figure has a total area of 102 square units (80 + 16 + 6 square units). Consequently, the composite figure has a 102 square unit area.

Composite things that are three dimensional (3D) are constructed from two or more separate pieces. Finding each item's outside surface area and adding the surface areas together will yield the surface area of a 3D composite object. Another way to divide it is into a top and a bottom.

We may divide the composite figure into smaller forms and sum up their areas to determine the area of the overall figure. Here is one method for breaking down the figure:

A rectangle and two triangles make up the figure.

The rectangle has an area of 80 square units since it is 10 units long and 8 units wide.

The two triangles have right triangles with four and six unit-long legs, respectively. The equation (base * height) / 2 may be used to calculate each triangle's area.

The area of the triangle on the left is (4 * 8) / 2 or 16 square units since its base is 4 units and its height is 8 units (the length of the rectangle).

The area of the triangle on the right is (6 * 2) / 2 or 6 square units because its base is 6 units and its height is 2 units (the distance between the bottom of the triangle and the bottom of the rectangle).

a)  The number of units that produces maximum profit is q = 12.

b) The price per unit that produces maximum profit is p = $39.

c)  The maximum profit is P = $386.

What is profit?

a) To find the number of units that produces maximum profit, we need to find the point where revenue equals cost. The revenue function is given by:

R(q) = pq = (63-2q)q = 63q - 2q²

The cost function is given by:

C(q) = 70 + 15q

The profit function is given by:

P(q) = R(q) - C(q) = (63q - 2q²) - (70 + 15q) = -2q² + 48q - 70

To find the number of units that produces maximum profit, we take the derivative of the profit function with respect to q, and set it equal to zero:

P'(q) = -4q + 48 = 0

Solving for q, we get:

q = 12

Therefore, the number of units that produces maximum profit is q = 12.

b) To find the price per unit that produces maximum profit, we substitute q = 12 into the price function:

p = 63 - 2q = 63 - 2(12) = 39

Therefore, the price per unit that produces maximum profit is p = $39.

c) To find the maximum profit, we substitute q = 12 and p = 39 into the profit function:

P = -2q² + 48q - 70 = -2(12)² + 48(12) - 70 = $386

Therefore, the maximum profit is P = $386.

For fau/cet filter:

For pitcher-filter:

Let's start with the fau/cet model:

Contribution margin per unit = selling price - variable cost

Contribution margin per unit = $90 - $25

Contribution margin per unit = $65

Contribution margin ratio = contribution margin per unit / selling price

Contribution margin ratio = $65 / $90

Contribution margin ratio = 0.722

The sales mix is 2 faucet models for every 3 pitcher filters sold, so the contribution margin weighted average is:

= (2/5)($65) + (3/5)($90-$20)

= $42

Now we can calculate the break-even point in units for the faucet model:

= Total fixed costs / contribution margin per unit

= $1,200,000 / $42

= 28,571 units

For pitcher filter:

Contribution margin per unit = selling price - variable cost

Contribution margin per unit = $110 - $20

Contribution margin per unit = $90

Contribution margin ratio = contribution margin per unit / selling price

= $90 / $110

Contribution margin ratio = 0.818

Contribution margin weighted average:

Answer:

To find the percentage decrease, we need to find the difference between the original price and the new price, divide that difference by the original price, and then multiply by 100 to express the result as a percentage.

The difference between the original price and the new price is:

990 - 765 = 225

Dividing the difference by the original price gives:

225 ÷ 990 ≈ 0.227

Multiplying by 100 gives:

0.227 x 100 ≈ 22.7

Therefore, the percentage decrease in the monthly price of the contract is approximately 22.7%.

The best line that represents the relation between the lines that passes through the points (8, 2) and (3, 5) and the line (-3, -7) and (0, -12) is a perpendicular line.

What are perpendicular lines?

In geometry, perpendicular lines are defined as two lines that meet or intersect each other at right angles (90 ∘). The term ‘perpendicular’ originated from the Latin word ‘perpendicularis,’ meaning a plumb line. If two lines AB and CD are perpendicular, then we can write them as AB ⊥ CD.

To determine the relationship between the two lines, we can first find the slope of each line using the two-point formula:

Slope of the line passing through (8, 2) and (3, 5):

m1 = (5 - 2) / (3 - 8) = -3/5

Slope of the line passing through (–3, –7) and (0, –12):

m2 = (-12 - (-7)) / (0 - (-3)) = -5/-3 = 5/3

If the two lines are parallel, their slopes will be equal. However, -3/5 is not equal to 5/3. If the two lines are perpendicular, their slopes will be negative reciprocals of each other. That is,

m1 x m2 = -1

But, (-3/5) x (5/3) = -1, which means that the two lines are perpendicular.

Therefore, the correct answer is C. perpendicular.

An equation in mathematics is a statement that states the equality of two expressions. An equation is made up of two sides that are separated by an algebraic equation (=). For example, the argument "[tex]2x + 3 = 9[/tex]" asserts that the statement "[tex]2x + 3[/tex]" equals the value "9". The goal of equation solving is to determine the value or values of the variable(s) that will allow the equation to be true. Equations can be simple or complex, regular or nonlinear, and include one or more factors. In the equation "[tex]x^2 + 2x - 3 = 0[/tex]," for example, the variable x is raised to the second power. Lines are used in many different areas of mathematics, such as algebra, calculus, and geometry.

Let's call Sarah's reading time "r" in minutes.

We can deduce from the problem:

Sarah painted for 5 minutes.

Because she spent twice as much time reading as she did painting,[tex]r = 2*5 = 10.[/tex]

She hiked for 35 minutes longer than she read, so [tex]h = r + 35.[/tex]

To calculate Sarah's total time spent on these three activities, simply add the times:

Time spent painting + time spent reading + time spent hiking = total time

Time total =[tex]5 + 10 + (r + 35)[/tex]

Time total = [tex]50 + r[/tex]

The nearest cent, the amount of money in the account after 13 years is $2,094.18.

The formula for continuous compound interest is:

V = Pe^(rt)

where V is the value of the account after t years, P is the principal (initial amount) invested, e is the base of natural logarithms (approximately 2.71828), r is the annual interest rate (as a decimal), and t is the time period in years.

In this case, P = $741, r = 0.058 (since the annual interest rate is 5.8%), and t = 13. Substituting these values into the formula, we get:

V = 741e^(0.058*13)

Using a calculator, we can evaluate e^(0.058*13) to be approximately 2.8302. Then, we can multiply this value by 741 to get:

V = 741*2.8302

V ≈ $2,094.18

Answer: x = -1 and y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this system of equations, we can use the substitution method.

First, solve the first equation for y:

y = -x + 8

Now, substitute this expression for y into the second equation and solve for x:

4x + y = 5

4x + (-x + 8) = 5 (substituting -x + 8 for y)

3x + 8 = 5

3x = -3

x = -1

Now that we have found the value of x, we can substitute it back into one of the original equations to solve for y. Let's use the first equation:

y = -x + 8

y = -(-1) + 8

y = 9
