24. Janet and Jack are walking in a two-day event to raise money for charity.
Janet asks a friend for a $7.50 donation, plus $0.10 for each mile she
walks. Jack asks a friend for a $5.50 donation, plus $0.15 for each mile
he walks. At how many miles of walking would Janet and Jack collect the
same amount of money?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

40 miles walk

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the miles walked by both of them be x at which money collected by same

for Janet

Fixed donation  asked = $7.50

money asked for walking 1 mile = $0.10

money made by Janet if he walks x miles = x*$0.10 = $0.10x

Total money collected by Janet = Fixed donation  asked + money made by Janet if he walks x miles

Total money collected by Janet =7.50 + 0.10x

For Jack

Fixed donation  asked = $5.50

money asked for walking 1 mile = $0.15

money made by Janet if he walks x miles = x*$0.15 = $0.15x

Total money collected by Jack = Fixed donation  asked + money made by Jack if he walks x miles

Total money collected by Jack =5.50 + 0.15x

we have to find miles at which money collected by both of them be same

and we have decided that it it as x mile walk then

Total money collected by Janet = Total money collected by Jack

7.50 + 0.10x = 5.50 + 0.15x

=> 7.50 - 5.50 = 0.15x - 0.10x

=> 2 = 0.05x

=> x = 2/0.05 = 40

Thus, at 40 miles walk money collected by both of them will be same

Suppose we lived in a society without interest. At age 25, you begin putting in $750 per month into a cookie jar until you retire at age 65. At age 65, you begin to withdrawl 2500 per month from the cookie jar. How long will your retirement fund last?

Answers

Answer:

the retirement fund would last 12 years

Step-by-step explanation:

first we find the amount of years one will be saving money by subtracting the age one will start saving money from the age one would start using the money.

65 - 25 = 40 years

next will be finding the amount of dollars one would save every year, we do that by multiplying the money one is saving every month by 12 (a year).

12 × 750 = 9,000 dollars per year

then we multiply the amount of money one would save per year by the amount of years one will be saving money in, to find how many dollars one would save in 40 years.

9,000 × 40 = 360,000 dollars in 40 years

-

after that we divide the amount one would have saved by the $2,500 one would use every month to find the amount of months the money would last.

$360,000 ÷ $2,500 = 144 months

to find how many years the money would last, one would divide it by 12, which is the amount of months per year.

144 ÷ 12 = 12

It will last 12 years. So it'll last till he's 77 years old at the rate he's pulling it out.

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to find the difference in the ages. so we need to find out how long he's been saving in the 1st place. 65 - 25 = 40 yearsWe now need to covert that 40 years into months. 40 × 12 = 480 months In order to know how much money he saved over that 40 years or 480 months times that by 750. 480 × 750 = 360,000Now we know over the course of 40 years he managed to save 360,000$ when he was putting in 750 a month. Now since he's retired he's taking out 2500 a month and we need to know how long it'll last.So to find out how long the 360k will last if taken out of 2500 increments just divide that rate but the total !! 360,000 ÷ 2500 = 144It will last him 144 months, now convert this number back to years. 144 ÷ 12 = 12 years So now we know it'll last him for 12 years ! and if u add 12 to 65 you'll get 77, so in 12 years he'll be 77!!

This is why it'll last him 12 years, which he'll be 77 by that time !! I hope this helped !!

The sum of four siblings ages is 71. The second child’s age is twice the youngest, the third child’s age is twelve more than the youngest, and the oldest child is four less than three times the youngest. Find each of the siblings ages.

Answers

Answer: 9, 18, 21, and 23 respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve any problem like this, you want to assign a variable to each child because you dont know their age. So lets write an equation and assign variables to these children.

r = first child (youngest)

x = second child

y = third child

z = fourth child (oldest)

We know that r + x + y + z = 71

We also are given info on the comparisons of their ages.

r = r

x = 2r (2 times the youngest)

y = 12 + r (12 more than the youngest)

z = 3r - 4 (4 less than 3 times the youngest)

That was the easy part tbh, now we have to solve for 'r'. We can see that all the ages are a function of the same variable (r), and we know the sum of them is equal to 71. So lets solve for r and then plug that r value into each equation we just derived.

Child #1 (youngest)

[tex]r+2r+(12+r)+(3r-4)=71\\3r+12+r+3r-4=71\\7r+12-4=71\\7r+8=71\\7r=63\\r=9yrs[/tex]

Child #2

[tex]x=2*9=18yrs[/tex]

Child #3

[tex]y=12+r=12+9=21yrs[/tex]

Child #4 (oldest)

[tex]z=3r-4=(3*9)-4=27-4=23yrs[/tex]

Fact Check:

[tex]9+18+21+23=71[/tex]

6.37 x 10⁻² in the standard form is 0.0637.

What is decimal?

Decimals are numbers that have two components, a whole number component and a fractional component, which are separated by a decimal point.

We have an expression,

6.37 x 10⁻².

Simplifying to standard form.

6.37 x 10⁻²,

= 6.37 x 1/100

= 6.37/100

= 0.0637

Therefore, 0.0637 is the standard form.

C on edge

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution is, (0.9273 +2nπ,0), where n is any integer, are the x-intercepts of the graph of the function y=6tan (x/2)-3.

What is function?

Function, in mathematics, an expression, rule, or law that defines a relationship between one variable (the independent variable) and another variable.

here, we have,

given that,

the function is,

y=6tan (x/2)-3

we know that,

the x-intercepts of the graph of the function, we put y = 0

so, we get,

6tan (x/2)-3 = 0

or, tan (x/2) = 3/6

or, tan (x/2) = 1/2

or, x/2 = 0.4636

The period of tangent is π, so we have,

x/2 = 0.4636 + nπ

or, x =  (0.9273 +2nπ)

Hence, The solution is, (0.9273 +2nπ,0), where n is any integer, are the x-intercepts of the graph of the function y=6tan (x/2)-3.
