Answer 1

Answer:

Albert = $2159.07; Marie = $2244.99; Hans = $2188.35; Max = $2147.40

Marie is $10 000 richer

Step-by-step explanation:

Albert

(a) $1000 at 1.2 % compounded monthly

[tex]A = P\left(1 + \dfrac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}[/tex]

A = 1000(1 + 0.001)¹²⁰ = $1127.43

(b) $500 losing 2%

0.98 × 500 = $490

(c) $500 compounded continuously at 0.8%

[tex]\begin{array}{rcl}A & = & Pe^{rt}\\& = & 500e^{0.008 \times 10}\\& = &\mathbf{\$541.64}\\\end{array}\\[/tex]

(d) Balance

Total = 1127.43 + 490.00+ 541.64 = $2159.07

Marie

(a) 1500 at 1.4 % compounded quarterly

A = 1500(1 + 0.0035)⁴⁰ = $1724.99

(b) $500 gaining 4 %

1.04 × 500 = $520.00

(c) Balance

Total = 1724.99 + 520.00 = $2244.99

Hans

$2000 compounded continuously at 0.9 %

[tex]\begin{array}{rcl}A& = &2000e^{0.009 \times 10}\\& = &\mathbf{\$2188.35}\\\end{array}\\[/tex]

Max

(a) $1000 decreasing exponentially at 0.5 % annually

A = 1000(1 - 0.005)¹⁰= $951.11

(b) $1000 at 1.8 % compounded biannually

A = 1000(1 + 0.009)²⁰ = $1196.29

(c) Balance

Total = 951.11 + 1196.29 = $2147.40

Marie is $ 10 000 richer at the end of the competition.

The mean annual salary paid to all employees in a company was 1500 Kenya pounds The mean annual salaries paid to male and female employees were 1560 Kenya pounds and 1260 Kenya pounds respectively. Determine the percentages of males and females employed by the company.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Male = 80[/tex]%

[tex]Female = 20%[/tex]%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Annual Mean Salary = 1500

Annual Mean Salary (Male) = 1560

Annual Mean Salary (Female) = 1260

Required

Percentage of male and female employed

Represent male by m and female by 4

So, total employees = m + f

The mean of an observation is calculated as thus;

Mean = Summation of observation divided by number of  observations

For Male:

Annual Mean = Total Salary/Number of males

Recall that Annual Mean = 1560

Number of males = m;

The formula becomes

[tex]1560 = \frac{TotalSalary}{m}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by m

[tex]1560 * m = \frac{TotalSalary}{m} * m[/tex]

[tex]1560m = TotalSalary[/tex]

For Female:

Annual Mean = Total Salary/Number of females

Recall that Annual Mean = 1260

Number of females = f;

The formula becomes

[tex]1260 = \frac{TotalSalary}{f}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by f

[tex]1260 * f = \frac{TotalSalary}{f} * f[/tex]

[tex]1260f = TotalSalary[/tex]

Total Annual Salary = Annual Salary of Male + Annual Salary of Female

Total Annual Salary = 1560m + 1260f

The mean annual salary is calculated as thus;

Mean Annual Salary = Total Annual Salary/Total Employees

Recall that Total Employees = m + f and Mean Annual Salary = 1500

So, the formula becomes

[tex]1500 = \frac{1560m + 1260f}{m+f}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by m + f

[tex]1500(m+f) = \frac{1560m + 1260f}{m+f} * (m+f)[/tex]

[tex]1500(m+f) = 1560m + 1260f[/tex]

Open brackets

[tex]1500m+1500f- = 1560m + 1260f[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]1500f -1260f = 1560m - 1500m[/tex]

[tex]240f = 60m[/tex]

Divide through by 60

[tex]\frac{240f}{60} = \frac{60m}{60}[/tex]

[tex]4f = m[/tex]

Reorder

[tex]m = 4f[/tex]

At this point, the percentage male and female can be calculated;

Male = (Number of male/Total Employees) * 100%

[tex]Male = \frac{m}{m+f} * 100[/tex]%

Substitute 4f for m

[tex]Male = \frac{4f}{4f+f} * 100[/tex]%

[tex]Male = \frac{4f}{5f} * 100[/tex]%

[tex]Male = \frac{4}{5} * 100[/tex]%

[tex]Male = 0.8 * 100[/tex]%

[tex]Male = 80[/tex]%

If percentage of male = 80%

Percentage of Female = 100% - 80%

[tex]Female = 20%[/tex]%

[tex]x - \frac{2}{3}x - \frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{3} + \frac{5}{6}x[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]x = \frac{-5}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]x - \frac{2}{3}x - \frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{3} + \frac{5}{6}x[/tex]

Required

Simplify

[tex]x - \frac{2}{3}x - \frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{3} + \frac{5}{6}x[/tex]

Add [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] to both sides

[tex]x - \frac{2}{3}x - \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{3} + \frac{5}{6}x + \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x - \frac{2}{3}x = \frac{1}{3} + \frac{5}{6}x + \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Subtract [tex]\frac{5}{6}x[/tex] from both sides

[tex]x - \frac{2}{3}x - \frac{5}{6}x= \frac{1}{3} + \frac{5}{6}x + \frac{1}{2} - \frac{5}{6}x[/tex]

[tex]x - \frac{2}{3}x - \frac{5}{6}x= \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{2} + \frac{5}{6}x- \frac{5}{6}x[/tex]

Bill needs to edge his yard with the dimensions in the shape below. What distance will he have walked after completing his edging? Round your answer to one decimal place. Do not include units in your answer.

Answers

Answer:

37.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance is the addition of all sides of the figure. Then, we need to find the length of the diagonal (d). To do that we have to make a right triangle with height (h) = 5 m. Given that the top length is 12 m and the bottom length is 15 m, the base (b) of the triangle is 15 - 12 = 3 m

Using Pythagorean theorem:

d² = h² + b²

d² = 5² + 3²

d = √34

d = 5.8 m

Therefore, the distance he will have walked is 5.8 + 12 + 15 + 5 = 37.8 meters

A line is parallel to y = 4x – 2 and
intersects the point (5, -11).
What is the equation of this parallel line?
y = [?]x +
Hint: Use the Point-Slope Form: y - y1 = m(x - X1)
Then write the equation in slope-intercept form.

Answers

Answer:

y=4x-31

Step-by-step explanation:

Ignore the hint. Point slope form makes everything so much harder than it has to be.

Parallel lines always have the same slope, in this case 4.

So our equation is now: y = 4x + b

Let's solve for b by plugging in (5, -11), as it's the only point we know is on the parallel line.

-11 = 4(5) + b

-11-20 = b

b = -31

So plug in b: y = 4x - 31

--------------------

Also rate and tell me if I'm correct :)

Answer:

y = -4x + 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation of a line perpendicular to y = -2 and passing through the point (4, -1), we can use the point-slope form of a linear equation.

The given line y = -2 has a constant slope of 0 since there is no variable term involving x. A line perpendicular to it will have an undefined slope.

Using the point-slope form, we have:

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁),

where (x₁, y₁) represents the coordinates of the given point (4, -1), and m represents the slope.

Since the slope is undefined, the equation becomes:

y - (-1) = undefined(x - 4).

Simplifying:

y + 1 = undefined(x - 4).

Now, we can write the equation in slope-intercept form by substituting the slope as -4 (the negative reciprocal of 0):

y + 1 = -4(x - 4).

Expanding the right side:

y + 1 = -4x + 16.

To isolate y, we can subtract 1 from both sides:

y = -4x + 16 - 1.

Combining the constants:

y = -4x + 15.

Therefore, the equation of the perpendicular line is:

y = -4x + 15.

Use a net to find the surface area of the open cylinder with only one base. Use 3.14 for pi.

Answers

Answer:

251.20 cm square

Step-by-step explanation:

As given in figure

height of cylinder = 2 cm

radius of cylinder = 8 cm

lateral surface area of cylinder is given by = [tex]\pi r l[/tex]

where r is the radius and l is the height

Therefore, lateral surface area of given cylinder

[tex]\pi r l = 3.14*8*2 = 50.24[/tex]

area of base is give by [tex]\pi r^2[/tex]

since there is only one base area of that base

= [tex]\pi r^2 = 3.14*8^2 = 3.14*64 = 200.96[/tex]

Thus,

Total surface area of open cylinder = 50.24 + 200.96 = 251.20 cm square

From the picture

XW = 8

WY = 8

∠X = 62°

8/sin(∠Y) = 8/sin(62°)

∠Y = 62°

Angle Y is also equal to:

To get it, we can evaluate the function in some values of x and then see which graph contains these points.

for example for x = 1 and x = -1 we have:

f(1) = 4*|1| = 4

f(-1) = 4*|-1| = 4
