A savings bond currently made Jamar $2,112.64 worth of interest in 7 years. If the investment gained 5.5% annual simple interest each year, approximately how much was the bond originally bought for?

A.$1381.81
B.$2673.21
c.$4903.23
D.$5487.36

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D; it was bought for $5,487.36

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the investment amount be $x

We use the formula for simple interest to get the interest

(2112.64-x) = (x * 5.5 * 7)/100

211264-100x = 38.5x

138.5x = 211264

x = 211264/138.5

x = 5,847.36

​Yesterday,
grace drove 35 1/2used
gallons 1 1/4 of gasoline. What is the unit rate for miles per​ gallon?

Answers

Answer:

The unit rate for miles per gallon is 33.75. 33.75 as a fraction 135/75

Step-by-step explanation:

35.5 divided by 1.75 is 33.75

33.75 as a fraction is 135.75 which is an improper fraction

So you have to divide the numerator by the denominator

135 divided by 75 is 1.8 as a decimal

Answer:

28.4

Step-by-step explanation:

35 1/2 miles over 1 1/4 gallons of gasoline. 1 1/4 converted into an improper fraction is 5/4, so you multiply the numerator and denominator by 5/4. You need to multiply by 5/4 because you need to get to miles per gallon, which equals to 1. (A fraction multiplied by its reciprocal will always equal 1) once you've multiplied the numerator and denominator by the reciprocal, your answer will be 28.4 - hope this helped!

One jug of powdered plant food treats an area of 140 square feet of flowers. How many jugs would be needed to treat an area of 175 square feet?

Use a graph plz!

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]n[/tex] and [tex]A[/tex] the number of jugs and the area of flowers, measured in jugs and square feet. We assume that exists a direct relationship between both variables. That is:

[tex]A \propto n[/tex]

[tex]A = k\cdot n[/tex] (1)

Where [tex]k[/tex] is the proportionality constant, measured in square feet per jug.

If we know that [tex]n = 1\,jug[/tex] and [tex]A = 140\,ft^{2}[/tex], then the proportionality constant is:

[tex]k = \frac{A}{n}[/tex]

[tex]k = 140\,\frac{ft^{2}}{jug}[/tex]

Then, the relationship between both variables is represented by:

[tex]A = 140\cdot n[/tex]

If we know that [tex]A = 175\,ft^{2}[/tex], then the minimum number of jugs needed to treat the area is:

[tex]n = \frac{175\,ft^{2}}{140\,\frac{ft^{2}}{jug} }[/tex]

[tex]n = 1.25\,jugs[/tex]

Since jugs represents a discrete set, then we round this number up to the next integer. In other words, we find that 2 jugs are needed to treat an area of 175 square feet.

Lastly, we present a graph to estimate the minimum value of jugs:

Find the equation of the line with slope =10 and passing through (-6,7). Write your equation in point slope form AND slope intercept forms.

Answers

Answer:

The equation of the line in the slope-point form is y - 7 = 10(x + 6)

The equation of the line in the slope-intercept form is y = 10x + 67

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-point form of the linear equation is y - y1 = m(x - x1), where

m is the slope(x1, y1) are the point lies on the line

The slope-intercept form of the linear equation is y = m x + b, where

m is the slopeb is the y-intercept

∵ The slope of the line is 10

m = 10

∵ The line passes through the point (-6, 7)

x1 = -6 and y = 7

→ Substitute them in the slope-point form above

∵ y - 7 = 10(x - -6)

∵ (-)(-) = (+)

y - 7 = 10(x + 6)

The equation of the line in the slope-point form is y - 7 = 10(x + 6)

→ Substitute m in the slope-intercept form

y = 10x + b

→ To find b substitute x by -6 and y by 7 in the equation

∵ 7 = 10(-6) + b

∴ 7 = -60 + b

→ Add 60 to both sides to find b

67 = b

→ Substitute the value of b in the equation

y = 10x + 67

The equation of the line in the slope-intercept form is y = 10x + 67

Discuss the difference between fixed expenses and variable expenses as they relate to a budget

Answers

Answer:

Fixed expences are expences that don't change month-to-month, whereas variable expences are things that are needing to budgeted for every month, but may vary a bit and are therefor usually estimated on a budget.

Step-by-step explanation:

For example, rent would be a fixed expense because you know it will be X amount due on the same day every month.  Food, on the other hand, would be a variable expense because it likely won't be the same amount month-to-month.

Answer:

Fixed expenses are expenses that stay the same for a person or a business. An example of a fixed expense is rent/mortgage. This expense doesn't change if you are only using the building for 2 weeks or the entire month, it's a set rate. A variable expense is an expense that changes like an electric bill, it varies based on the month and usage. When you budget, you can easily budget for your fixed expenses but you need to allow some room in your budget for expenses that change.

Angela uses a scanner to make a reduced-size copy of a rectangular

photo that is 6 inches long and 4 inches wide. The length of the

reduced photo is 4 inches. What is its width?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\dfrac{8}{3}\ \text{inches}[/tex] or [tex]2.67\ \text{inches}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The photo has length 6 inches and width 4 inches.

The ratio of length to breadth is

[tex]\dfrac{l}{w}=\dfrac{6}{4}=\dfrac{3}{2}[/tex]

Now the reduced length of the photo is 4 inches.

Let [tex]x[/tex] be the reduced width of the photo

[tex]\dfrac{3}{2}=\dfrac{4}{x}\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{4}{3}\times2\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{8}{3}\ \text{inches}=2.67\ \text{inches}[/tex]

The width of the reduced photo is [tex]\dfrac{8}{3}\ \text{inches}[/tex] or [tex]2.67\ \text{inches}[/tex].

Answer this please I’m really struggling

Answers

Answer: x=10, y=7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we are given that BD bisects ABC. That means ABD and DBC are equal to each other. We are also given that ABC is 25. With the given information, we can create two equations.

Equation 1: 2x-y=3y-x

Equation 2: 2x-y+3y-x=25

Now, we can solve for x and y.

2x-y+3y-x=25             [combine like terms]

x+2y=25

Let's simplify Equation 1 by solving for a variable.

2x-y=3y-x                    [add both sides by x]

3x-y=3y                       [add both sides by y]

3x=4y                           [divide both sides by 3]

x=4/3y

Now that we have x, we can plug it into any equation to solve for y.

x+2y=25                      [plug in x=4/3y]

(4/3y)+2y=25              [combine like terms]

10/3y=25                     [multiply both sides by 3/10]

y=15/2

Now we can plug in y=15/2 to solve for x.

x=4/3y                          [plug in y=15/2]

x=4/3(15/2)                  [multiply]

x=10

Now, we know that x=10 and y=7.5.

Gianna is working two summer jobs, making $12 per hour washing cars and $8 per
hour landscaping. Last week Gianna worked a total of 5 hours and earned a total of
$48. Graphically solve a system of equations in order to determine the number of
hours Gianna worked washing cars last week, x, and the number of hours Gianna
worked landscaping last week, y.

Answers

Answer:

x + y = 5

12x + 8y = 48

x = -y + 5

12(-y + 5) + 8y = 48

-12y + 60 + 8y = 48

-4y + 60 = 48

-4y = -12

y = 3

x + 3 = 5

x = 2

12(2) + 8(3) = 48

24 + 24 = 48

x = 2 hours of washing cars

y = 3 hours of landscaping

Hope this helps!!

- Kay

The value of x and y should be 2 and 3.

Calculation of the value of x and y:

Since Gianna is working two summer jobs, making $12 per hour washing cars and $8 per hour landscaping. Last week Gianna worked a total of 5 hours and earned a total of $48.

So here the equation should be

x + y = 5

12x + 8y = 48

we can write as

x = -y + 5

So,

12(-y + 5) + 8y = 48

-12y + 60 + 8y = 48

-4y + 60 = 48

-4y = -12

y = 3

Now

x + 3 = 5

x = 2

Therefore, The value of x and y should be 2 and 3.

Answers

Answer:

Students altogether liked cola the best 26

Step-by-step explanation:

Total no of pupils = 60

Boys = 32

we will make a table

Gender         cola             milk               water       total

Boys             12                                         4              32

we can find the missing numbers

Let x be for milk

In boys  12 + x + 4 = 32

                 x  = 16
