Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a total of 39 students.

students.

The number of students that play football is twice as much as the number of students that play volleyball.

Let the number that plays volleyball be x then the number that plays football will be 2x. This we have

x + 2x = 39

3x = 39

x = 13

The total number that plays volleyball is 13.

The total number that plays football will be 2 x 13 = 26

Since 9 students play both sports, the number of students that plays only football will be 26 - 9 = 17.

A car with a cost of $25,000 is decreasing in value at a rate of 10% each year. The function g(t)= 25,000(0.9)^t gives the value of the car after t years. When will the value of the car be about $12,000? A) after 7 years B) after 9 years C) after 13 years Could you also explain how to do it?

Answers

12,000 = 25,000 $(0.9)^(t)$
Divide both sides by 25,000 → 0.48 = $(0.9)^(t)$
Convert to log form → $log_(0.9)$ 0.48 = t
Use the change of base formula → $(log 0.48)/(log 0.9)$ = t
Plug into the calculator → 6.966 = t

To make a specific hair dye, a hair stylist uses a ratio of 1 1/8 oz of red tone, 3/4 oz of graytone, and 5/8 oz of brown tone. If the stylist needs to make 20 oz of dye, how much of
each dye color is needed

Answers

Answer:

We can call the amounts of red, gray, and brown dye 1 1/8x, 3/4x and 5/8 x respectively and we can write the equation:

1 1/8x + 3/4x + 5/8x = 20

2 1/2x = 20

x = 8 which means that the stylist needs 1 1/8 * 8 = 9 oz red, 3/4 * 8 = 6 oz gray and 5/8 * 8 = 5 oz brown.
