Suppose Jane can finish cleaning by herself in x minutes, every minute she does 1/x portion of the work
Anna can finish cleaning by herself in 2x minutes, every minute she finishes 1/(2x) portion of the work
together, they finish (1/x +1/2x) portion of the work
in 15 minutes, they finish the whole work: 15/x +15/2x =1
solve for x: 30/2x +15/2x =1. x=22.5
2x=45
Anna can finish cleaning by herself in 45 minutes.

olasank [31]

Answer:

1,800(1.015)^{x}

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

f(x)=1,000(1.015)^{x}

g(x)=800(1.015)^{x}

we know that

To find the function that represent the total amount Jack and Suzie will save in x years, adds f(x) and g(x)

so

f(x)+g(x)=1,000(1.015)^{x}+800(1.015)^{x}

f(x)+g(x)=[1,000+800](1.015)^{x}

f(x)+g(x)=1,800(1.015)^{x}

Pluto's distance P(t)P(t)P, left parenthesis, t, right parenthesis (in billions of kilometers) from the sun as a function of tim
Xelga [282]

Answer: P(t) = 1.25.sin(\frac{\pi}{3}.t) + 5.65

Step-by-step explanation: A motion repeating itself in a fixed time period is a periodic motion and can be modeled by the functions:

y = A.sin(B.t - C) + D or y = Acos(B.t - C) + D

where:

A is amplitude A=|A|

B is related to the period by: T = \frac{2.\pi}{B}

C is the phase shift or horizontal shift: \frac{C}{B}

D is the vertical shift

In this question, the motion of Pluto is modeled by a sine function and doesn't have phase shift, C = 0.

<u>Amplitude</u>:

a = \frac{largest - smallest}{2}

At t=0, Pluto is the farthest from the sun, a distance 6.9 billions km away. At t=66, it is closest to the star, P(66) = 4.4 billions km. Then:

a = \frac{6.9-4.4}{2}

a = 1.25

<u>b</u>

A time period for Pluto is T=66 years:

66 = \frac{2.\pi}{b}

b = \frac{\pi}{33}

<u>Vertical</u> <u>Shift</u>

It can be calculated as:

d = \frac{largest+smallest}{2}

d = \frac{6.9+4.4}{2}

d = 5.65

Knowing a, b and d, substitute in the equivalent positions and find P(t).

P(t) = a.sin(b.t) + d

P(t) = 1.25.sin(\frac{\pi}{3}.t) + 5.65

The Pluto's distance from the sun as a function of time is

P(t) = 1.25.sin(\frac{\pi}{3}.t) + 5.65

30 POINTS! Explain how you found the equation that represents Aunt Andrea’s decorating plans from the table.
ch4aika [34]

Answer:   The number of balloons varies directly with the number of tables. The two variables are directly proportional. The relationship of balloons to tables is the ratio 5:1, where 5 is the constant of variation. Use the equation y = kx, where k is the constant of variation resulting in the equation y = 5x.

Hope i helped
