the number of state parks in california is 36 more than one third the number of state parks in florida. there are 85 state parks

in california. which of the following equations would you use to find the number of state parks in florida? note: f represents the number of state parks in florida. 3(f − 36) = 85 1 over 3f 36 = 85 quantity f minus 36 all over 3 equals 85 quantity f plus 36 all over 3 equals 85

The Rockville Employment Agency just placed Howard Jacobson in a job as a junior pharmacist. The job pays $51.2k. The agency fee

yan [13]

His annual salary as a pharmacist is $51,200

There are a total of 52 weeks in an year.

(a) Weekly salary = annual salary/ number of weeks = 51,200/52 = $984.62 (rounded to the nearest cent)

Howard's weekly salary to the nearest cent = $984.62

(b) His salary in first three weeks = 984.62*3 = $2,953.85

Howard's earnings during the first three weeks to the nearest cent = $2,953.85

Howard must pay to the employment agency to the nearest dollar = $1,182

World wind energy generating1 capacity, W , was 371 gigawatts by the end of 2014 and has been increasing at a continuous rate of

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

a) $W(t) = 371(1.168)^{t}$

b) Wind capacity will pass 600 gigawatts during the year 2018

Step-by-step explanation:

The world wind energy generating capacity can be modeled by the following function

$W(t) = W(0)(1+r)^{t}$

In which W(t) is the wind energy generating capacity in t years after 2014, W(0) is the capacity in 2014 and r is the growth rate, as a decimal.

371 gigawatts by the end of 2014 and has been increasing at a continuous rate of approximately 16.8%.

This means that

$W(0) = 371, r = 0.168$

(a) Give a formula for W , in gigawatts, as a function of time, t , in years since the end of 2014 . W= gigawatts

$W(t) = W(0)(1+r)^{t}$

$W(t) = 371(1+0.168)^{t}$

$W(t) = 371(1.168)^{t}$

(b) When is wind capacity predicted to pass 600 gigawatts? Wind capacity will pass 600 gigawatts during the year?

This is t years after the end of 2014, in which t found when W(t) = 600. So

$W(t) = 371(1.168)^{t}$

$600 = 371(1.168)^{t}$

$(1.168)^{t} = \frac{600}{371}$

$(1.168)^{t} = 1.61725$

We have that:

$\log{a^{t}} = t\log{a}$

So we apply log to both sides of the equality

$\log{(1.168)^{t}} = \log{1.61725}$

$t\log{1.168} = 0.2088$

$0.0674t = 0.2088$

$t = \frac{0.2088}{0.0674}$

$t = 3.1$

It will happen 3.1 years after the end of 2014, so during the year of 2018.

2 sandwiches and 3 croissants costs £11.

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

The price of a sandwich is £2.5 and the price of a croissant is £2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s be the number of sandwiches and c be the number of croissants

Then according to given statements the equations will be:

$2s+3c = 11\ \ \ \ \ \ \ Eqn\ 1\\3s+6c =19.50\ \ \ Eqn\ 2$

Multiplying equation 1 by 2 and subtracting equation 2 from the new equation

$2(2s+3c) = 11*2\\4s+6c = 22$

Now

$4s+6c-(3s+6c) = 22-19.50\\4s+6c-3s-6c = 2.5\\s = 2.5$

Putting s=2.5 in equation 1

$2(2.5)+3c = 11\\5+3c = 11\\3c = 11-5\\3c = 6\\\frac{3c}{3} = \frac{6}{3}\\c = 2$

Hence,

The price of a sandwich is £2.5 and the price of a croissant is £2
