In her college English class Marta wrote a total of 15,000 words in essays three of martas essays were 1,000 words long and the rest were 2,000 words long. How many 2,000 word essays did she write

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Martha wrote 6 2,000-word essays.

Step-by-step explanation:

15,000 (words total) - 3,000 (3 1,000-word essays) = 12,000 (words left for the 2,000-word essays).

Since the rest of the essays were 2,000 words, we can divide 12,000 by 2,000 to get 6.

Answer:

  a(n) = 1/2(-8)^(n-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The general term of a geometric sequence is ...

  a(n) = a(1)×r^(n-1)

where a(1) is the first term, and r is the common ratio.

Here, the first term is a(1) = 1/2. The common ratio is the ratio of any two sequential terms: r = 32/-4 = -8. Then the explicit formula is ...

  a(n) = 1/2(-8)^(n-1)

How high is a tree that cast a26ft shadow at the same time a 6ft post casts a shadow which is 11ft long

Answers

Answer:

[tex]14\frac{2}{11}[/tex] ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the tree equal x. Shadows are proportional to the height of an object, so we can write a proportion where to numerators are the object and the denominators are the shadow:

[tex]\frac{x}{26} =\frac{6}{11}[/tex]

Now, to solve for x, we can cross-multiply:

11x = 6*26

11x = 156

x =  [tex]14\frac{2}{11}[/tex]

Cecelia receives two credit card offers in the mail. Each has a 0% introductory APR. After the introductory period, the first card has an APR of 19.99% and the second card has an APR of 24.99%. If each card has a late fee of $35 and an annual membership fee of $25, which card should she choose and why?

Answers

Answer:

1. We are told they have similar APR (starting) and Annual fee of 25 and similar late fee of 35

Then we must consider the APR after the initial value 19.999% < 24.99%

Hence she should price the first card with a 19.99% APR

Don Simón repartió 60 canicas entre sus dos
hijos, de modo que el mayor recibió tres veces lo
que el menor. ¿Cuántas canicas recibió el hijo
mayor?

Answers

Un sistema de ecuaciones es un conjunto de ecuaciones que operan con el mismo conjunto de variables, de tal forma que buscamos solucionar ambas ecuaciones al mismo tiempo.

En este problema querremos encontrar un sistema de ecuaciones para poder encontrar la cantidad de canicas que recibe el hijo mayor.

Encontraremos que recibe 45 canicas

La información que se nos da es:

"Don simón repartió 60 canicas entre ambos hijos"

"El hijo mayor recibe 3 veces la que el menor"

Definamos las variables:

x = cantidad que recibe el hijo mayor

y = cantidad que recibe el hijo menor.

Como sabemos que la cantidad total de canicas es 60, entonces tenemos:

x + y = 60

Como tambien sabemos que el mayor recibe 3 veces lo que el menor, podemos escribir:

x = 3*y

Entonces tenemos 2 equaciones, las cuales podemos combinar en un sistema de ecuaciones.

x + y = 60

x = 3*y

Para resolver este sistema, el primer paso sería aislar una de las variables en una de las ecuaciones. Como queremos resolverlo para x, debemos aislar la otra variable.

Podemos hacerlo en la segunda ecuación:

x/3 = y

Ahora podemos reemplazar esto en la primer ecuación:

x + y = 60

x + x/3 = 60

(4/3)*x = 60

x = (3/4)*60 = 45

x = 45

Podemos concluir que el mayor recibe 45 canicas.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

equation: 1/2(s +8) = 20Mark began with 32 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s represent the number Mark started with. After buying 8 more, he then had s+8. After the fire, he had ...

  (1/2)(s +8) = 20

This equation can be solved by multiplying by 2, then subtracting 8.

  s +8 = 40

  s = 32

Answer:

  295 mg

Step-by-step explanation:

The proportion can be written ...

  dose/(96 lb) = (200 mg)/(65 lb)

  dose = (96/65)(200 mg) ≈ 295.4 mg . . . . . multiply by 96 lb, cancel lb units

What's the X-Intercepts of (2x-5)(x+1)=9 or (2x-5)(x+1)-9

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Either way works. It comes to the same thing.

(2x-5)(x+1)=9

F: 2x*x = 2x^2

O: 2x*1 = 2x

I: -5 * x = -5x

L: -5*1 = -5

2x^2 + 2x - 5x - 5 = 9    Subtract 9 from both sides

2x^2 - 3x - 14 =0            Divide by 2 (it makes life easier).

Factoring you get

(2x - 7)(x + 2)

2x - 7 = 0

2x = 7

x = 3.5

x + 2 = 0

x = -2

The x intercepts = (3.5,0) and (-2,0)
