A piece of ribbon 4 yards long is used to make bows requiring 15 inches of ribbon for each. What is the maximum number of bows that can be made?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: 4 yards x 36inches = 144
144/15inches=9.6
So the maximum is 9 ribbons with a little material left over.

You have $22 in your bank account and deposit $11.50 each week. At the same time your cousin has $218 but is withdrawing $13 each week. When will your accounts have the same balance? (Hint: Write a system for the situation and solve)

Answers

After 8 weeks your accounts have the same balance.

What is an expression?

Mathematical expression is defined as the collection of the numbers variables and functions by using operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Given that;

You have $22 in your bank account and deposit $11.50 each week.

And, At the same time your cousin has $218 but is withdrawing $13 each week.

Let after x weeks your accounts have the same balance.

Hence, We can formulate;

⇒ $22 + $11.50x = $218 - $13x

Solve for x as;

⇒ 22 + 11.50x = 218 - 13x

⇒ 13x + 11.50x = 218 - 22

⇒ 24.50x = 196

⇒ x = 196 / 24.50

⇒ x = 8

You = 22 + 11.50w
Cousin = 218 - 13w

it wants to know what w equals when You = Cousin
or
22 + 11.50w = 218 - 13w

first we can add 13w to both sides
24.50w + 22 = 218

then we can subtract 22 from both sides 
24.50w = 196

then we divide both sides by 24.50
so
w = 196 / 24.50 = 8

therefore it would take 8 weeks for the accounts to have the same balance

Researchers recorded that a group of bacteria grew from 200 to 1,000 in 8 hours. At this rate of growth, how many bacteria will there be in 20 hours from the start of the experiment

Answers

Answer:

  11,180

Step-by-step explanation:

The usual assumption for organic growth is that it is exponential. Here, the number increased by a factor of 1000/200 = 5 in 8 hours. For t in hours, a model for population might be ...

  b = (initial value)·(growth factor)^(t/(period of growth))

  b = 200(5^(t/8))

Using t = 20, the predicted population is ...

  b = 200(5^(20/8)) = 200·5^2.5 ≈ 11,180

There might be about 11,180 bacteria in 20 hours.

Introduction to addition or subtraction of fractions with different denominator 3/5+1/3

Answers

You must find the same denominator by finding the closest common factor of both.
In this case it would be 15 because both 5 and 3 go into 15.
You then have to multiply the numerator by the number you multiplied to get the denominator.

The y-intercept of the function ​ y=−2x+8y​​ is the y-intercept of the function represented in the graph.
A graph with a line running through point (1,6) and point (5, -2)

Answers

Y = -2x + 8 The y intercept of the function is 8  

The equation that passes the point ( 1, 6 ) and ( 5, -2)
First solve the slope
M = ( 6 – (-2)) / ( 1 – 5 )
M = -2
At point ( 1,6) solve the y intercept b  
Y = mx + b
6 = (-2)(1) + b
b = 8
so the equation is   y = -2x + 8
