Every 1 minute, you multiply the mass by 27.7% or 0.277

after 1 minute, you multiply once
after 2 minutes, you multiply twice
3, thrice
etc
so after 13 minutes, you multiply 13 times or 0.277^13

so what is 970g *0.277^13 =?

970×(1−0.277)^(13)
=14.3

Landon babysits and works part time at tge water park over the summer. onw week, he babysat for 3 hours and worked at the water
Tems11 [23]
B = hourly rate for babysitting and w = hourly rate for working at water park

3b + 10w = 109...multiply by -8
8b + 12w = 177...multiply by 3
----------------------
-24b - 80w = - 872 (result of multiplying by -8)
24b + 36w = 531 (result of multiplying by 3)
---------------------add
- 44w = - 341
w = -341/-44
w = 7.75 <=== hourly rate for working at water park

3b + 10w = 109
3b + 10(7.75) = 109
3b + 77.50 = 109
3b = 109 - 77.50
3b = 31.50
b = 31.50/3
b = 10.50 <== hourly rate for babysitting

If quadrilateral PQRS is a rectangle, then which of the following is true?
brilliants [131]

∠STP ≅ ∠QTR is the True statement ⇒ answer C

Step-by-step explanation:

In any rectangle

1. Each two opposite sides are equal and parallel

2. The measure of its vertex angles is 90°

3. The two diagonals are equal

Now lets find the true statements

∵ PQRS is a rectangle

∴ PS = QR ⇒ opposite sides

∴ PQ = SR ⇒ opposite sides

∴ PR = QS ⇒ diagonals

A.  ∠PSQ ≅ ∠QSR

∵ The diagonals of the rectangle do not bisect the vertex angles

∴ AQ does not bisect angle S

∴  m∠PSQ ≠ m∠QSR

∴  ∠PSQ not congruent ∠QSR

∠PSQ ≅ ∠QSR ⇒ False

B. segment SR ≅ segment RQ

∵ SR and RQ are two adjacent sides

∵ The adjacent side in the rectangle not equal

∴ SR ≠ QR

∴ segment SR not congruent to segment RQ

segment SR ≅ segment RQ ⇒ False

C. ∠STP ≅ ∠QTR

∵ PR intersects QS at point T

∴ m∠STP = m∠QTR ⇒ vertically opposite angles

∴ ∠STP ≅ ∠QTR

∠STP ≅ ∠QTR ⇒ True

D. segment PS ≅ segment PR

∵ PS is a side in the rectangle

∵ PR is a diagonal in the rectangle

∵ The side of the rectangle not equal the diagonal of the rectangle

∴ PS ≠ PR

∴ segment PS not congruent to segment PR

segment PS ≅ segment PR ⇒ False

∠STP ≅ ∠QTR is the True statement

-6y + 3(12y) = 20(y - 1) + 15 is it true?
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

y= - 1/2 (negative half) =  -0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

−6y+3(12y)=20(y−1)+15

Multiply 3 and 12 to get 36.

−6y+36y=20(y−1)+15

Combine −6y and 36y to get 30y.

30y=20(y−1)+15

Use the distributive property to multiply 20 by y−1.

30y=20y−20+15

Add −20 and 15 to get −5.

30y=20y−5

Subtract 20y from both sides.

30y−20y=−5

Combine 30y and −20y to get 10y.

10y=−5

Divide both sides by 10

y= -5/10

Reduce the fraction -5/10 = -0.5 to lowest terms by extracting and cancelling out 5 .

A. One day Annie weighed 24 ounces more than Benjie, and Benjie weighed 3 1/4 pounds less than Carmen. How did Annie’s and Carme
Debora [2.8K]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

A.

Let Annie's weight be = a

Let Benjie's weighs = b

Let Carmen's weight be = c

One day Annie weighed 24 ounces more than Benjie, equation forms:

a=b+24        ......(1)

Benjie weighed 3 1/4 pounds less than Carmen.  

In ounces:

1 pound = 16 ounces

\frac{13}{4} pounds = \frac{13}{4}\times16=52 ounces

b=c-52  or

c=b+52    ......(2)

Now adding (1) and (2), we get

a+b=b+24+c-52

=> a=c-28

This gives  Annie weighs 28 ounces less than Carmen.

B.

We cannot know anyone's actual weight, as we only know their relative weights.

A total of 70 tickets were sold for a concert and earn the organizers $804. If the cost of each ticket is either $10 or $12, how
crimeas [40]

Answer:

52 tickets cost $10 and 18 tickets cost $12

Step-by-step explanation:

10x+12y=804. (1)

x+y=70. (2)

From (2)

x=70-y

Substitute x=70-y into (1)

10x+12y=804

10(70-y)+12y=804

700-10y+12y=804

700+2y=804

2y=804-700

2y=104

y=104/2

y=52

Recall

x+y=70

x+52=70

x=70-52

x=18

52 tickets cost $10 and 18 tickets cost $12
