Answer:
1 1/2 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
5/8+3/8 is 8/8, or 1 mile. She now has 1 1/2 miles left to go! (2 1/2-1=1 1/2)
The annual returns will be calculated as follows:
a] Here we use the formula:
A=p(1+r/100)^n
A=future amount
p=principle
r=returns
n=time
We are given:
A=500, p=400, t=1
Plugging the values in the formula we obtain:
500=400(1+r)^1
simplifying and solving for r:
1.25=1+r
thus
r=1.25-1
r=0.25~25%
b] Using the formula above:
A=p(1+r/100)^n
A=2500+100=2600, p=2000, n=1 year
plugging the values in the equation we obtain:
2600=2000(1+r)^1
simplifying and solving for r we obtain:
2600/2000=1+r
1.3=1+r
hence
r=1.3-1
r=0.3~30%
Multiply the first equation by -2 to eliminate a variable so it becomes:
-12x+8y=48
4x-8y=-32
Add them together.
-8x=16
x=-2
Plug it in one equation.
6(2)-4y=-24
12-4y=-24
-4y=-12
y=3
Ordered pair is: (-2,3)
Answer:
x=8,y=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
x-2y=10
x=10+2y
10+2y+3y=5
5y=-5
y=-1
x-2(-1)=10
x=8
