foundation was created to help ease the pain of HIV/AIDS in Africa. Lewis, a Canadian, works for the United Nations trying to determine ways to stop the spread of this deadly disease from crippling an entire continent. Choose a variable to represent the money earned during fundraising activities and the revenue generated for the foundation Use these variables to create an equation that will determine the amount of money the foundation will receive. In their latest bake sale, the club raised $72. Calculate the amount the foundation will receive. At the end of the year, the World Issues Club mailed a cheque to the foundation for $850.

Answer:

  • $43.20
  • $1416.67

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the money earned during fundraising activities =x

Since the World Issues club has decided to donate 60% of all their fundraising activities this year to Stephen Lewis Foundation.

The amount of money the foundation will receive

=60% of x

= 0.6x

In the bake sale, the club raised $72.

Therefore, the amount the foundation will receive =0.6*72=$43.20

At the end of the year, the World Issues Club mailed a cheque to the foundation for $850.

Therefore:

0.6x=850

x=850/0.6

x=$1416.67

The total amount of money the club raised is $1416.67.

Select the correct image.
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer: The ice image, bottom left.

Step-by-step explanation:

The albedo values give information about the proportion of radiation that a given object surfaces, for example, if an object has an albedo value of 0.2, this means that the object reflects 0.2*100% = 20% of the radiation.

You usually can see that darker objects have a smaller albedo value, while clearer objects have a bigger albedo value, meaning that as clearer is the color, usually it reflects a bigger proportion of the radiation.

Here we have that the bigger albedo value is in the ice ( 0.55), so the correct image is the ice image, at the bottom left.

A new crew of painters can paint a small apartment in 12 hours.  An experienced crew can paint the small apartment in 6 hours. 
Varvara68 [4.7K]
The new crew works at the rate 1/12 apt/hr.
The old crew works at the rate 1/6 apt/hr.

Let x = hours required to paint the apartment when the two crews work together.

That is, 
(1/12 + 1/6  apt/hr)*(x hr) = (1 apt)
(3/12)x = 1
(1/4)x = 1
x = 4 hours

Answer:  4 hours

Jenna concludes that (4,9) is the solution to the system of these two equations. which of the following justifies her conclusion
nalin [4]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

a. The point (4,9) appears in both tables

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

<u>Note:</u> This question can be solved without the need of the tables

<u>A solution of a system of equations</u> is defined as a point (or set of points) that satisfy both equations

<u>This means that,</u> this point should belong to all the equations in the system

Now, a table is used to show a set of points that belong to a certain line

This means that, all vales in the table belong to the line they represent

<u>Since the point (4,9) appears in both tables</u>, therefore, it belongs to both lines and, therefore, is a solution to the system of equations consisting of these two lines

Hope this helps :)
