Answer:
<u>$173,954.01</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Finding compound interest :
- A = (150,000)(1 + 0.025)⁶
- A = (150,000)(1.025)⁶
- A = (150,000)(1.15969342)
- A = <u>$173,954.01</u>
The mathematical property that allows 40 * (25 * 74) = (40 * 25) * 74 would be the Associative Property of Addition and Multiplication. This property means that no matter how the values of an expression are grouped together (or "associating" with each other), the end result will be the same, as long as the symbols are all either multiplication or addition symbols.
Hope that helped =)
Answer:
1) 15-4x
2) 3x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
1) product of x and 4 is 4x then subtract that from 15
2) use x as your age in this situation so your age times 3 is 3x and since he's 2 years older than that u add 2 more
Answer: She should blend 98 lbs of high-quality beans.
She should blend 72 lbs of cheaper beans
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of pounds of high quality beans that she should blend.
Let y represent the number of pounds of cheaper beans that she should blend.
She needs to prepare 170 lbs of blended coffee beans. This means that
x + y = 170
She plans to do this by blending together a high-quality bean costing $4.75 per pound and a cheaper bean at $2.00 per pound. The blend would sell for $3.59 per pound. This means that the total cost of the blend would be 3.59×170 = $610.3. This means that
4.75x + 2y = 610.3 - - - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 170 - y into equation 1, it becomes
4.75(170 - y) + 2y = 610.3
807.5 - 4.75y + 2y = 610.3
- 4.75y + 2y = 610.3 - 807.5
- 2.75y = - 197.2
y = - 197.2/-2.75 = 71.9
y = 72 pounds
x = 170 - y = 170 - 71.9
x = 98.1
x = 98 pounds
