Marlina received her salary on Friday. She spent one-half of her salary on rent and then spent $338 on her electric and water bill. Next, she spent one-half of what was left on her phone bill. After spending $56.00 on gas for her car, Marlina had $102.00 left. How much did Marlin spend on rent?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Marlina spent $654 on rent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of money Marlina's received for her salary be x.

We know that she spent one-half of her salary on rent and then $338 on her electric and water bill. Therefore, the amount of money she has left can be so far can be represented by:

[tex]\displaystyle x-\frac{1}{2}x-338[/tex]

Next, she spent one-half of what was left on her phone bill. So, we can subtract one-half of the above expression to what we have so far.

[tex]\displaystyle x-\frac{1}{2}x-338-\frac{1}{2}\left(x-\frac{1}{2}x-338\right)[/tex]

Finally, she spent $56 for gas. Thus, we will subtract 56:

[tex]\displaystyle x-\frac{1}{2}x-338-\frac{1}{2}\left(x-\frac{1}{2}x-338\right)-56[/tex]

And we know that after all of the expenses, she will have $102 left. Therefore:

[tex]\displaystyle x-\frac{1}{2}x-338-\frac{1}{2}\left(x-\frac{1}{2}x-338\right)-56=102[/tex]

We want to know how much Marlina spent on rent. So, we can find her salary, since we know the rent is one-half of the salary. To find the salary, we will solve for x.

Distribute:

[tex]\displaystyle x-\frac{1}{2}x-338-\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{1}{4}x+169-56=102[/tex]

Rearrange:

[tex]\displaystyle \left(x-\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{1}{4}x\right)+(-338+169-56)=102[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{4}x-225=102[/tex]

Add 225 to both sides:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{4}x=327[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 4:

[tex]x=\$ 1308[/tex]

Therefore, Marlina received a total of $1308 for her salary.

We know that she spent half of her salary on rent. Therefore, the amount she spent on rent is:

[tex]\displaystyle r=\frac{1}{2}(1308)=\$ 654[/tex]

Marlina spent a total of $654 on rent.

Answer 2

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  $654

Step-by-step explanation:

Let r represent the amount of Marlina's rent. Since that is half her salary, the amount remaining after paying rent is also equal to r. The disposition of that remaining amount is ...

  $338 on electric and water (E&W)

  (1/2)(r -338) on phone . . . this is half of what is left after paying E&W

  $56 on gas

  $102 unaccounted

__

The total of these amounts is equal to r, so we have ...

  r = 338 + 1/2(r -338) +56 +102

  1/2r = 338 -169 +56 +102 = 327 . . . . . eliminate parentheses, subtract 1/2r

  r = 2(327) = 654 . . . . . multiply by 2 to get r by itself

Marlina spends $654 on rent.

The management of Hartman Rent-A-Car has allocated $2.52 million to buy a fleet of new automobiles consisting of compact, intermediate-size, and full-size cars. Compacts cost $18,000 each, intermediate-size cars cost $27,000 each, and full-size cars cost $36,000 each. If Hartman purchases twice as many compacts as intermediate-size cars and the total number of cars to be purchased is 100, determine how many cars of each type will be purchased. (Assume that the entire budget will be used. Let x, y, and z denote the number of compact, intermediate-sized, and full-size cars purchased, respectively.)

Answers

Answer:

The number of compact cars = x = 30 cars

The number of intermediate-sized car = y = 60 cars

The number of full-size cars purchased = z = 10 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us denote:

the number of compact car = x

the number of intermediate-sized car = y

the number of full-size cars purchased = z

The total number of cars to be purchased is 100.

Hence:

x + y + z = 100...........Equation 1

If Hartman purchases twice as many compacts as intermediate-size cars

y = 2x

So: x + 2x + z = 100..........Equation 2

= 3x + z = 100

z = 100 - 3x

Compacts cost $18,000 each, Intermediate-size cars cost $27,000

Full-size cars cost $36,000 each.

Assume that the entire budget will be used.

Hence,

x × $18,000 + y × $27,000 + z × $36,000 = $2,520,000.

18000x + 27000y + 36,000z = $2,520,000.....Equation 4

Substitute 100 - 3x for z and y = 2x in Equation 4

18000x + 27000(2x) + 36,000(100 - 3x) = $2520000

18000x + 54000x + 3,600,000 -108000x = $2520000

72000x -108000x + 3,600,000 = $2,520,000

= $3,600,000 - $2,520,000 = 108000x - 72,000x

$1,080,000 = 36,000x

Divide both sides by $36,000

x = $1080000/36000

x = 30

From the above:

y = 2x

y = 2 × 30

= 60

z = 100 - 3x

= 100 - 3 × 30

= 100 - 90

= 10

Therefore,

The number of compact cars = x = 30 cars

The number of intermediate-sized car = y = 60 cars

The number of full-size cars purchased = z = 10 cars

The actual volumes of quart-size jars of Hellmann's mayonnaise are uniformly distributed from 31.58 to 32.51 fluid ounces. Find the standard deviation in volumes of quart-size Hellmann's mayonnaise jars (in fluid ounces). NOTE: There are 32 fluid ounces in a quart.

Answers

Answer:

0.27

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard deviation of a uniform distribution is:

σ² = (b − a)² / 12

σ² = (32.51 − 31.58)² / 12

σ² = 0.0721

σ = 0.268

Rounded to the hundredths place, the standard deviation is 0.27.

To solve this question, we use concepts of the uniform probability distribution.

Using this, we get that the standard deviation in volumes of quart-size Hellmann's mayonnaise jars is of 0.2685 fluid ounces.

Uniform probability distribution:

An uniform distribution has two bounds, a and b.

The standard deviation is:

[tex]S = \sqrt{\frac{(b-a)^2}{12}}[/tex]

The actual volumes of quart-size jars of Hellmann's mayonnaise are uniformly distributed from 31.58 to 32.51 fluid ounces.

This means that [tex]a = 31.58, b = 32.51[/tex]

Find the standard deviation in volumes of quart-size Hellmann's mayonnaise jars (in fluid ounces).

[tex]S = \sqrt{\frac{(32.51 - 31.58)^2}{12}} = 0.2685[/tex]

Thus, the standard deviation is of 0.2685 fluid ounces.

Answer:

for the line to have a constant slope, the difference of every y- ordinate with the last ordinate has to be equal

to check this, we will use the following formula

y4 - y3 = y2 - y1  

if both the LHS and the RHS are equal, the slope is constant and is irregular otherwise

5 - 8 = 7 - 3

-3 = 4

LHS ≠ RHS

Since LHS is not equal to RHS, the slope is NOT constant and hence keeps increasing or decreasing irregularly

The record low temperature in Pittsburgh, PA is ​-22°F. The record high is 103°F. What is the difference in the record high and the record low temperatures?

Answers

Answer:

The difference in the record high and the record low temperatures is 125°F

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a quantity T that varies in time, say T1 and T2, being T1 the initial value and T2 the final value.

The change or difference between the final and the initial values is:

T=T2-T1

The record low temperature in Pittsburgh, PA is T1=-22°F while its record high is T2=103°F

The difference is:

T=103°F - (-22°F)

Note both negative signs multiply to produce a positive sign, and a sum instead of a subtraction:

T=103°F + 22°F = 125°F

The difference in the record high and the record low temperatures is 125°F
