5353 minutes = 89.22 hours
Maybe the figures should be 53 and 20??

Let's let Billy = A
The formula to use for work problems is
Time = (A*B) / (A+B)

53 = ( (A +20)* A) / (A +20 + A) )
53 = ( A^2 + 20A ) / (2A + 20)
A^2 + 20A -106A -1060
A^2 -86A -1060
A = 96.935

What is the product of a+3 and −2a2+15a+6b2?
rewona [7]

For this case we must find the product of the following expression:

(a + 3) (- 2a ^ 2 + 15a + 6b ^ 2)

We apply distributive property term to term:

(a + 3) (- 2a ^ 2 + 15a + 6b ^ 2) =\\-2a ^ 2 * a + 15a * a + 6b ^ 2 * a-6a ^ 2 + 45a + 18b ^ 2 =\\-2a ^ 3 + 15a ^ 2 + 6ab ^ 2-6a ^ 2 + 45a + 18b ^ 2=

We add similar terms:

-2a ^ 3 + (15-6) a ^ 2 + 6ab ^ 2 + 45a + 18b ^ 2 =\\-2a ^ 3 + 9a ^ 2 + 6ab ^ 2 + 45a + 18b ^ 2 =

Finally, the expression is as:

-2a ^ 3 + 9a ^ 2 + 6ab ^ 2 + 45a + 18b ^ 2

Answeer:

-2a ^ 3 + 9a ^ 2 + 6ab ^ 2 + 45a + 18b ^ 2

Use the graph to write an explicit function to represent the data and determine how much money Amy earned in week 5.
zalisa [80]

Answer:

3rd option

f(n)=5(3)^{n-1}

f(5)=405

Step-by-step explanation:

So we are given the following points:

(1,5)

(2,15)

(3,45)

(4,135)

This is a geometric sequence because there is a common ratio, 3. That is you can keep multiply 3 to a previous y-coordinate to get the next y-coordinate.

The formula for a geometric sequence is f(n)=a_1 \cdot r^{n-1}

where a_1 is the first term and r is the common ration.

So we have

f(n)=5 \cdot (3)^{n-1}.

If you want to know the fifth term, just plug in 5:

f(5)=5 \cdot (3)^{5-1}

Simplifying:

f(5)=5 \cdot 3^4

f(5)=5 \cdot 81

f(5)=405

Find the area of triangle ABC. A = 21.67°, b = 17.2 m, c = 7.1 m
Vesna [10]

\textrm{area} = \frac 1 2 b c \sin A

= (1/2) (17.2) (7.1) sin (21.67)

= 22.5470 square meters
