Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A = Adam, B = Betty
Adam and Betty purchased a printer together for $258.
This means we can say A + B = 258.
We are also told Adam paid $18 less than twice Betty.
You can write this as:
Adam = 2 x Betty - 18
A = 2B - 18
Substitute "A" into the A + B equation and you get:
A + B = 258
2B - 18 + B = 258
3B - 18 = 258
Add 18 to both sides.
3B = 258 + 18
3B = 276
Divide both sides by 3 to find B
B = 276/3 = 92 (This means Betty paid $92).
Since the total that they paid together was $258.
This means Adam pays the Total - How much Betty paid
Adam = 258 - 92 = $166
I'm pretty sure it is 4, 10.5/5 = 2.1 and 8.5/2.1 = 4.047619047619048 which to the nearest tenth is 4.0 or 4......hope this helps,and hope it is correct!!
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
From the image of the leaning tower of Pisa, we can see that it passes through the point (7.75, 0) and (10.75, 42).
a) The equation of a line in slope intercept form is given by y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the intercept. Also, the equation of line passing through

Hence since it passes through (7.75, 0) and (10.75, 42), the equation is:

b) When the tower is 56 meters tall, i.e. y = 56, we need to find the value of x:
y = 14x - 108.5
56 = 14x - 108.5
56 + 108.5 = 14x
164.5=14x
x = 164.5/14
x = 11.75
When the tower is 56 meters tall, the top of the tower is 11.75 m off center
For this case, the first thing we are going to do is rewrite the function.
We have then:
h (x) = 505.5 + 8 * exp (-0.9 * x)
We evaluate the value of x = 5 in the function.
We have then:
h (5) = 505.5 + 8 * exp (-0.9 * 5)
h (5) = 505.588872
round to the nearest tenth:
h (5) = 505.6
Answer:
the value of h (5) is:
h (5) = 505.6
