Emily and Lily are reading the same copy of the same book for a summer reading assignment.

Mathematics
1 answer:
AnnZ [12.1K]1 month ago
7 0

Answer:

Detaile explanation:

emily : 16 + 22x....where x represents the days

Lily : 24 + 18x

Setting up the equation: 16 + 22x = 24 + 18x

Combine terms: 22x - 18x = 24 - 16

Thus, we get 4x = 8

So, x = 8/4

Consequently, x = 2 <==== they will be reading the same page after 2 days

Substituting x back gives: 16 + 22x = 16 + 22(2) = 16 + 44 = 60

For Lily: 24 + 18x = 24 + 18(2) = 24 + 36 = 60

Thus, both will reach page 60 at the same time <===

Emma earns $6 each time she mows the lawn and $8 per hour for babysitting. She is saving up to buy a new pair of jeans that cost
zzz [12042]

Answer:

The illustration provided shows the graph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ------> number of times Emma cuts the grass

y ------> hours Emma spends babysitting

it is known that

6x+8y\geq 48 ------> represents the inequality of the scenario

The solution is the shaded region above the solid line where both x and y are positive

The equation for the solid line is represented as 6x+8y=48

The slope of the line is negative m=-\frac{3}{4}

The y-intercept is at the point (0,6) (the y-value when x is zero)

The x-intercept is at (8,0) (the x-value when y equals zero)

therefore

The illustration provided shows the graph

I have a past due balance of $87.50 and my new charges are $75.00. I was also charged a late fee of 15% of my past due balance.
PIT_PIT [12094]
Past due amount = $87.50
Late fee equals 15% of $87.50, which is 0.15 × 87.50 = $13.125
New charges are $75.00

Total due now = 87.50 + 13.125 + 75 = $175.625

Final total: $175.63

The figure shows the design of a greenhouse with a rectangular floor. The front and back sides of the greenhouse are semicircles
tester [12079]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

96 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume calculation for the dimensions of 16 ft by 18 ft by 1/3 ft is as follows:

V = LWH

V = (16 ft)(18 ft)(1/3 ft) = 96 ft³

Thus, 96 cubic feet of concrete will be required.

.580 80 repeating as fraction
Svet_ta [12483]
To start, we will shift the non-repeating segment of the decimal to the left side by dividing by a power of 10.

Then we will assign a variable to represent the value and also shift the repeating segment to the left.

Essentially, the concept here is that we can denote the repeating portion with a variable, let's say "x", and move forward with the calculation;

\bf 0.580\overline{80}\implies \boxed{\cfrac{5.80\overline{80}}{10}}\qquad \textit{now, let's say }x= 5.80\overline{80}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------

\bf thus\qquad \begin{array}{llll}&#10;100\cdot x&=&580.80\overline{80}\\&#10;&&575+5.80\overline{80}\\&#10;&&575+x&#10;\end{array}\qquad \implies 100x=575+x&#10;\\\\\\&#10;99x=575\implies x=\cfrac{575}{99}\qquad therefore\qquad \boxed{\cfrac{5.80\overline{80}}{10}}\implies \cfrac{\quad \frac{575}{99}\quad }{10}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{\quad \frac{575}{99}\quad }{\frac{10}{1}}\implies \cfrac{575}{99}\cdot \cfrac{1}{10}\implies \cfrac{575}{990}\implies \stackrel{simplified}{\cfrac{115}{198}}

you can verify that using your calculator.

Farmer Alex has 32 llamas each of whom needs 10000 square feet of grazing area. He wants to enclose a rectangular pen along a st
tester [12079]
Take note of the image below

the riverbank requires no fencing due to the river's presence
so the pen's perimeter can be calculated as 2w + l, or w + w + l
thus   \bf \textit{area of a rectangle}\\\\&#10;A=lw\qquad A=10000\implies 10000=lw\implies \cfrac{10000}{w}=\boxed{l}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{perimeter of enclosed pen}\\\\&#10;P=2w+l\implies P(w)=2w+\boxed{\cfrac{10000}{w}}

derive P(w), set it to zero, locate any critical points, and perform a first-derivative test for minimum values.
