X*80+y*60= 50*74
x      +y      =50            | * ( -60)

80x  + 60y= 50*74
-60x  - 60y=-50*60
---------------------------
20x= 50*(74-60)=50*14
x=50*14/20=35 pounds of 80 cents tea
y=50-35=15 pounds of 60 cents tea

Another payment type enabled by smartphones is person-to-person payments, which are apps that allow people to send money electro
Galina-37 [17]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Person to person payment is an online technology that allows customers to transfer their money and funds from their account to another account through mobile phones. A p2p app allows one user to send money to another user by using an app or website—transaction including anything from paying a dinner bill, rent, or contributing to charity.

The increased obtaining of online banking, mobile banking, and e-commerce by users has paved the way for greater use of person-to-person payments. In the payment markets sending money between smartphones has become an ordinary matter. According to Billtrust, young adults are using a person to person payment more than two generations.

Nearly half of smartphone owners regularly used p2p payment apps. Most people used p2p payment app because it offers better security or most of their peers use it.

(13-0.25x5)(12+4x5)=3,845
(13-0.25x6)(12+4x6)=2,845
so your answer is 3,845 because if Hirome sells them for $11.75 he makes $3845 if Hirome sold them for $11.50 he makes $2845.80 and if he sold them for $12.00 he would make $2464.00

The gas tank of a car is filled with a nozzle that discharges gasoline at a constant flow rate. Based on unit considerations of
Cloud [144]

Answer:

It is going 84.12s = 1 minute and 24.12 seconds to fill the tank.

Step-by-step explanation:

The filling time of a gas tank can be given by a first order function in this format:

F(t) = V - r*t

In which F(t) is the current amount of fuel in the tank(in L), V is the volume of the tank(in L), r is the discharge rate of the tank(in L/s) and t is the time in seconds.

Finding the values of the parameters:

The tank is completly empty, so F(t) = 0.

The volume of the tank is 14 gallons. However, the problem states that the volume of the tank is measured in liters.

Each gallon has 3.78L.

So V = 14*3.78 = 53L

The discharge rate for the gas is 38.0 l/min. However, the problem states that the discharge rate is in L/s. So, to find the value of r, we solve the following rule of three.

38 L - 60s

r L - 1s

60r = 38

r = \frac{38}{60}

r = 0.63

Solving the equation:

F(t) = V - r*t

0 = 53 - 0.63t

0.63t = 53

t = \frac{53}{0.63}

t = 84.12s

It is going 84.12s = 1 minute and 24.12 seconds to fill the tank.
