Mrs. Mobley can jog 3 miles in 27 minutes. How many miles can she jog in 81 minutes?

Answers

Answer:

9 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to get 27 minutes to 81 minutes so you multiply 27 by 3, and that is 81, so you simply multiply 3 by 3 and get 9! Hope this helps! ;)

(27 x 3) = 81

(3 x3) = 9

You invest $7000 in an account bearing 5% interest for ten years. A. How much will the account be worth if compounded quarterly? What about monthly? Daily? B. What do you notice about the amount of additional money you make as the frequency of compounding increases?

Answers

Answer:quarterly, monthly, daily

Step-by-step explanation:

quarterly: y=7000 (1+.05/4)'10(4)     answer y=11,505.34

monthly: y=7000 (1+.05/12)'10(12)    answer y=11,529.07

daily: y=7000 (1+.05/365)'10(365)    answer y=11,540.65

What do you notice about the amount of additional money you make as the frequency of compounding increases? The account is worth more

The account will be worth approximately $11,505 if compounded quarterly.

The account will also be worth approximately $11,540 if compounded daily.

A. Compounded quarterly:

n = 4 (quarterly compounding)

A = 7000(1 + 0.05/4[tex])^{(4)(10)[/tex]

A ≈ 7000(1.0125)⁴⁰

A ≈ 7000 x 1.643619463

A ≈ 11505.34

The account will be worth approximately $11,505 if compounded quarterly.

B. Compounded monthly:

n = 12 (monthly compounding)

A = 7000(1 + 0.05/12[tex])^{(12)(10)[/tex]

A ≈ 7000(1.00416666667)^(120)

A ≈ 7000 x 1.6487212707

A ≈ 11540.05

The account will be worth approximately $11,540 if compounded monthly.

C. Compounded daily:

n = 365 (daily compounding)

A = 7000(1 + 0.05/365)^(365*10)

A ≈ 7000(1.0001369863)^(3650)

A ≈ 7000 * 1.6487212707

A ≈ 11540.05

The account will also be worth approximately $11,540 if compounded daily.

B. As the frequency of compounding increases, the additional money earned (compared to simple interest) becomes more significant. In this case, regardless of whether the interest is compounded quarterly, monthly, or daily, the resulting values are very close to each other.

Answer:

x = -2

y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -3x + 3

y = 5x + 19

We can put one y as another:

-3x + 3 = 5x + 19

-8x = 16

x = -2

And now let's check using x = -2

y = (-3 * -2) + 3

y = (5 * -2) + 19

y = 6 + 3

y = -10 + 19

y = 9

y = 9

Answer:

81/x - 3 = 6 2x - 3 = 15

Answer:

it's only the last two

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 2 = 25

3x + 2 - 2 = 3x

25 - 2 = 23

3x = 23

3x / 3 = x

23 / 3 = 7 2/3

x = 7 2/3 not this one

x/3 + 7 = 8

x/3 + 7 - 7 = x/3

8 - 7 = 1

x/3 = 1

x/3 * 3 = x

1 * 3 = 3

x = 3 not this one

4 + 5x = 18

4 + 5x - 4 = 5x

18 - 4 = 14

5x = 14

5x / 5 = x

14 / 5 = 2 4/5 not this one

24 - 2x = 13

24 - 2x - 24 = -2x

13 - 24 = -11

-2x = -11

-2x / -2 = x

-11 / -2 = 5 1/2 not this one

81/x - 3 = 6

81x - 3 + 3 = 81/x

6 + 3 = 9

81/x = 9

81/x * x = 81

9 * x = 9x

81 = 9x

81 / 9 = 9

9x / 9 = x

9 = x this one

2x - 3 = 15

2x - 3 + 3 = 2x

15 + 3 = 18

2x = 18

2x / 2 = x

18 / 2 = 9

x = 9 this one

Explanation:

This tent is a triangular prism. We have two congruent triangles in front and back. Let's stand the triangular prism up so that the triangle forms the base, or floor, of this figure.

The area of the base triangle is 5*4/2 = 20/2 = 10 square feet. I used the formula base*height/2 to get the area of a triangle.

Once we know the area of the base of the prism, we multiply that by the height of the prism, which is the 8 ft. So we get 10*8 = 80 cubic feet of volume.

(a) Whats the area of a rectangular field is 3888 m. If the length of the field is 72 m, what is its width?

(b)The perimeter of a rectangular painting is 374 cm. If the width of the painting is 88cm, what is its length?

Answers

Answer:

part a is 54            part b is 99

Step-by-step explanation:

72 x ? =3888

x=54

374 is the perimeter. You have a side that is 88cm so the opposite side will be 88 cm as well. 374-176=198

so between the last 2 sides we have 198. The sides will be equal so you just divide it by 2  

so the top and bottom of the rectangle are 99 and both sides are 88

​For the two right triangles above, explain why a/8=x/12 . ​ ​What ​trigonometric ratio is also equal to the two given ratios?

Answers

Answer:

sin trigonometry ratio

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for triangles

Required

Explain why [tex]\frac{a}{8} = \frac{x}{12}[/tex]

From the attached diagram, both triangles are similar triangles because

(1) the second triangle is a dilation of the first triangle by a ratio of 1.5

i.e

[tex]k = \frac{12}{8}[/tex]

[tex]k = 1.5[/tex]

(2) They have angle 30 degrees, and have their right angles located at the same point

In the first triangle, the sine of 30 degrees is represented as:

[tex]sin(30) = \frac{Opp}{Hyp}[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]sin(30) = \frac{a}{8}[/tex]

In the second triangle:

[tex]sin(30) = \frac{Opp}{Hyp}[/tex]

So:

[tex]sin(30) = \frac{x}{12}[/tex]

By comparison:

[tex]sin(30) = sin(3)[/tex]

Hence:

[tex]\frac{a}{8} = \frac{x}{12}[/tex]

Charlotte and Riley walked 6/10 of a mile to school one day, and then after school they walked 3/8 of a mile to the store. From the store back home was another 2/5 of a mile. How far did the girls walk in all?

Answers

Answer: The girls walked [tex]1\dfrac38[/tex] miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  Distance from home to school = [tex]\dfrac{6}{10}[/tex] mile

Distance from school to store = [tex]\dfrac38[/tex] mile

Distance from store to home = [tex]\dfrac25[/tex] miles

Total distance = [tex]\dfrac6{10}+\dfrac38+\dfrac25[/tex]

= [tex]\dfrac{6\times4+3\times5+2\times8}{40}[/tex]   [L.C.M.(10,8,5)=40]

= [tex]\dfrac{24+15+16}{40}[/tex]

= [tex]\dfrac{55}{40}[/tex]

= [tex]\dfrac{11}{8}=1\dfrac38[/tex]  miles

Hence, The girls walked [tex]1\dfrac38[/tex] miles.
