If Ben invests $3000 at 4% interest per year, how much additional money must he invest at 5.5 % annual interest to ensure that the interest he receives each year is 4.5 % of the total amount invested?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$1500

Step-by-step explanation:

Investment 1 = $3000Interest 1 = 4%Investment 2 = xInterest 2 = 5.5%Total interest = 4.5%

Total interest:

3000*0.04 + x*0.055 = (3000+ x)*0.045    ⇒ multiply by 100 both sides3000*4 + 5.5x = 3000*4.5 + 4.5x                ⇒ parenthesis5.5x - 4.5x = 3000(4.5-4)                             ⇒ collect like termsx = 3000*0.5                                                ⇒ simplifyx = 1500                                                        ⇒ answer

Additional money is $1500

Area of triangle = 1/2 × b × h

b = base and h = height

Area = 1/2 × (x+4) × (2)

Area = x + 4

Area of rectangle = lb

l = Length and b = Breadth

Area = 10 (x + 2)

Area = 10x + 20

Given:

The area of rectangle is 8 times greater than the area of the triangle.

Solution:

According to the question,

10x + 20 = 8(x+4)

or, 10x + 20 = 8x + 32

or, 10x - 8x = 32 - 20

or, 2x = 12

or, x = 12/2 = 6

Answer:

The value of x is 6.

Hence, Option D. 6 is correct.

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle = length * width

                             = 10 *(x +2)

                             = 10*x + 10*2

                             = 10x + 20   unit²

Area of triangle = [tex]\frac{1}{2}bh[/tex]

                          [tex]=\frac{1}{2}*2*(x +4)\\\\=1*(x+4)\\\\= x +4[/tex]

Area of rectangle  = 8*area of triangle

10x + 20 = 8* (x+ 4)

10x + 20 = 8x + 32           {Subrtact 20 from both sides}

        10x = 8x + 32 - 20

        10x = 8x + 12   {subtract 8x form both sides}

  10x - 8x = 12

         2x = 12     {divide both sides by 2}

      2x/2 = 12/2

          x = 6

[tex]-3(a-2)=16[/tex]

divide both sides by -3

Which line is perpendicular to y=7x-3 if the perpendicular line passes through the point (7, 7)? a) y=-7x-1 b) y=-7x+8 c) y=-1/7x+8 d) y=-1/7x+1

Answers

Perpendicular lines have an opposite reciprocal slope, therefore, the slope of the perpendicular line is:

-1/7

So far, y = -1/7x + b. Now we need to plug in (7, 7) into x and y for our equation.

7 = -1/7(7) + b

Simplify the right side

7 = -1 + b

Add 1 to both sides

8 = b

The equation of the perpendicular line is:

y = -1/7x + 8

Sita Rahim drove due north for 3 hours at 46 miles per hour. From the
same spot, Yasmina Young drove due south for 2 hours at 43 miles per
hour. How far apart were they after their trip?

Answers

Answer:

224 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

What you would do is take the 3 hours times the 46 mph to get 138 miles.

3*46=138

Next, multiply the 2 hours by the 43 mph to get 86 miles.

2*43=86

Lastly, you're going to add the two.

138+86=224 miles.

An environmental study of a certain community suggests that t years from now, the average level of carbon monoxide in the air will be Q(t)=0.05t^2 + 0.1t + 3.4 parts per million. By approximately how much will the carbon monoxide lvel change during the coming 6 months?

Answers

Answer:

3.4625

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation:

Q(t)=0.05t^2 + 0.1t + 3.4 parts per million

Where t = time in years

By approximately how much will the carbon monoxide lvel change during the coming 6 months?

t = 6 months = 6/12 = 0.5 year

Q(0.5) = 0.05(0.5)^2 + 0.1(0.5) + 3.4 parts per million

Q(0.5) = 0.05(0.25) + 0.05 + 3.4

Q(0.5) = 0.0125 + 0.05 + 3.4

Q = 3.4625

Carbon monoxide level will change by approximately 3.4625 parts per million in 6 months
