Answer:

p = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

-3( 2+4p) + 7 = 49

Subtract 7 from each side

-3( 2+4p) + 7 -7= 49-7

-3( 2+4p)  = 42

Divide by -3

-3( 2+4p) /-3 = 42/-3

( 2+4p)  = -14

Subtract 2 from each side

2+4p-2 = -14-2

4p = -16

Divide by 4

4p/4 = -16/4

p = -4

A rectangular park 40 yards wide was redesigned, and a path 1 yard wide was built around it. How long was the park before if, after the path was built, its area became 4200 square yards?

Answers

Answer:

98 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

The new width is 40 yds + 2 yds = 42 yds.

Area = L × W

4200 square yds = L × 42 yds

L = 4200 yds ÷ 42 yds = 100 yds

The new length is 100 yds.

The old length = the new length - the width of the path × 2 = 100 yds - 1 yd × 2 = 100 yds - 2 yds = 98 yds.

The length of the park was 98 yds, before the path was built.

Answer:

98 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

First we will list our values

new w: 42

old w: 40

old l: x

new l: x+2

we are adding 2 to the new values as there is 1 yard on either side

now we will find the new area:

42 * (x+2) =4200

42x+84=4200

42x=4116

x=98

In the past month, Kaitlin rented 3 video games and 6 DVDs. The rental price for each video game was $2.60. The rental price for each DVD was $3.30. What is
the total amount that Kaitlin spent on video game and DVD rentals in the past month?

Answers

Kaitlin rented 3 video games and 6 dvds.

2.60 x 3 = 7.50 (dollars and cents)

3.30 x 6 = 19.80 (dollars and cents)

add them together to get the total cost in the past month.

(to find the answer you know the price for a single video game/DVD so what you do is multiply those prices times how much they bought)

ex: $2.60 x 3 <-- the amount of games she bought.

i hope this helps you.

Answer:

Kaitlin spent $27.60 on video games and DVDs in the past month.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the price of one video game, one DVD, and the amount that was rented in the past month.  

To find the total cost of the video games, multiply:

$2.60 x 3

= $7.80 spent on video games in the past month

To find the total cost of the DVDs, multiply:

$3.30 x 6

= $19.80 spent on DVDs in the past month

To find the total cost, add the total cost of video games and DVDs together:

$7.80 + $19.80 = $27.60

Conclusion: Kaitlin spent $27.60 in the past month on video games and DVDs.

Lerna's Hydra is a mythological character that appears in some stories such as the 12 Tasks of Hercules. The Hydra was a one-headed monster but when it is cut off, 2 more heads grow in its place. If a hero tried to conquer it by cutting off all of its heads every day, how many heads would the Hydra have on the third day? And at the end of 10 days of trying to kill it? *

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Initially the monster is one-headed, when it is cut off, 2 more heads grow in its place, when the two heads are cut off, 4 will grow in its place. This will go on an on and the amount of heads that grows each day will form a geometric sequance as shown;

1, 2, 4...

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is expresses as;

[tex]T_n = ar^{n-1}[/tex] where;

a is the first term

r is the common ratio

n is the number of terms

To get the number of heads that the Hydra have on the third day, we will have to find the fourth term of the sequence since the first cutting was done the next day (second day).

from the sequence above;

a = 1

r = 2/1 = 4/2 = 2

T4 = 1(2)^{4-1}

T4 = 2^3

T4 = 8

Hence the hydra will have 8 heads on the third day.

To know the number of heads at the end of 10 days, we will find the 11th term of the progression

T11 = 1(2)^{11-1}

T4 = 2^10

T4 = 1024

He will have 1024 heads after 10 days of trying to kill the monster.

The number of heads that would the Hydra have on the third day is 8

And, at the end of 10 days of trying to kill it is 1024.

The calculation is as follows:

a = 1

r = 2 by 1 = 2  

T4

= 8

So the hydra will have 8 heads on the third day.

Now  

To know the number of heads at the end of 10 days, we will determine the 11th term of the progression

= 1024
