The first thing we must do for this case is to define a variable:
 x: number of years
 y: total salary
 We have then:
 For first company:
 y = 1500x + 31000
 For second company:
 y = 2000x + 28500
 Equaling both equations we have:
 1500x + 31000 = 2000x + 28500
 Clearing x:
 2000x - 1500x = 31000 - 28500
 500x = 2500
 x = 2500/500
 x = 5
 Answer:
 
It will take for the salaries to be the same about:
 
x = 5 years

A baseball costs $4.00.If the sales tax is 5%,what is the total prics?
Liula [17]
In order to get the total price, we can multiply the 4 dollars by .05 to find 5 percent of the object's cost and add it to the sales tax. So, .05 times 4 is 0.2, meaning there is a sales tax of 0.2 dollars. We add that to the four, so the total price is 4.20 dollars. Hope this helps.

Alika [10]

Given the equation of the parabola

(x-4)^2=3(y-3).

The vertex of this parabola is placed at point (4,3).

If the equation of the parabola is (x-x_0)^2=2p(y-y_0), then

2p=3,\\ \\p=1.5.

The coordinates of the parabola focus are

\left(x_0,y_0+\dfrac{p}{2}\right).

Therefore, the focus is placed at point (4,3,75).

Answer: option D, 0.75 in. above the vertex

Alik [6]

Answer:

Answers are below

Step-by-step explanation:

4t x 5t = 20t²

4t x -4 = -16t

5 x 5t = 25t

5 x -4 = -20

The top left box should be 20t²

The top right box should be -16t

The bottom left box should be 25t

What is true about the completely simplified sum of the polynomials 3x2y2 − 2xy5 and −3x2y2 + 3x4y?
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

The simplified sum of these polynomials is 3x^4y - 2xy^5

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, we need to remember that we can only add together like terms in this case, there are only two like terms. Both of the first terms end in x^2y^2. So, we add these two together.

3x^2y^2 - 3x^2y^2 = 0

Since they cancel out, we simply just put the other two terms as our answer.

3x^4y - 2xy^5
