Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount of apples that Nicole bought was 6 pounds.

Each pound of apple cost $1.50

This means that the total cost of the 6 pounds of apple that Nicole bought would be

6 × 1.5 = $9

The store had a discount of $2 off her total purchase. This means that the amount that was paid is

9 - 2 = $7

If Nicole and her friend then divided the cost of the purchase evenly, let x represent the amount that each of them would pay. Therefore, the expression that can be used to determine how much Nicole and her friend each paid for the apples would be

x = 7/2

Alice and Bob each have a certain amount of money. If Alice receives $n$ dollars from Bob, then she will have $4$ times as much
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer: 31 : 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the following:

Alice's amount = P

Bob's amount = Q

Amount received = n

If Alice receives $n$ dollars from Bob ;then she will have $4$ times as much money as Bob.

P + n = 4(Q - n)

P + n = 4Q - 4n

P = 4Q - 4n - n

P = 4Q - 5n - - - - (1)

If, on the other hand, she gives $n$ dollars to Bob, then she will have $3$ times as much money as Bob

P - n = 3(Q + n)

P - n = 3Q + 3n

P = 3Q + 3n + n

P = 3Q + 4n - - - - - - (2)

Equating both equations - (1) and (2)

4Q - 5n = 3Q + 4n

4Q - 3Q = 4n + 5n

Q = 9n

Express P in terms of n, use either equation (1) or (2)

From equation 2:

P = 3Q + 4n

Substituting Q = 9n

P = 3(9n) + 4n

P = 27n + 4n

P = 31n

Alice's amount = P, Bob's = Q

Ratio = P:Q

31 : 9

Hariette would like to review the income and expenses that were actually paid last month so she can determine how much to set as
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Hybrid basis

Step-by-step explanation:

There are different methods of accounting used by businesses depending on their peculiar needs. Below are the type of accounting methods:

- Cash basis is when revenues and expenses are recognised when cash is recieved or paid out.

-Accrual basis is when revenue and expenses are recognised when they are earned. For example if services are rendered to a client that will pay in a week's time, since service has already been given it is considered that the future payment has been earned.

- Modified basis combines elements of cash and accrual basis. For example considering short term assets like accounts receivable and accounts payable as cash items. Long term assets are recorded on accrual basis.

- Hybrid basis is used when cash and accrual methods are used for various expenses and tax. Mostly it is used for internal accounting purposes.

In this scenario Hariette would like to review the income and expenses that were actually paid last month. This requires a cash basis that shows actual amount recieved and paid last month. Account receivable and payable are not considered.

In setting aside money for tax she will employ accrual basis accounting. It is an expense that is estimated for future use.

So the hybrid basis is the method that will be most suitable.

likoan [24]

Answer:

22

Step-by-step explanation:

I would assume that the 6% rate would carry for the rest of the year, i.e. all 365 days, 6% of those have clouds interfering with stargazing

365 * 6% = 365 * 0.06 = 21.9, and round up to 22 because you can't really have .9 of a day here.
