The cost of painting a wall that is 5 meters wide and 212 meters tall is $50. How many square meters can be painted for $1?

Mathematics

Answer:

21.2 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a parallelogram is base • height.

So:

1. Calculate the area of what you can get for $50. 5 • 212 = 1060 square meters.

2. Now you divide the first price ($50) by the desired price ($1). This one is easy because 50 / 1 = 50, but I'm putting this here for future reference in case you need to solve a problem that has a desired price that's greater than $1.

3. Divide the answer to step one by the answer to step two to get the area you can have painted for $1. 1060 / 50 = 21.2 square meters.

You can start by subtracting different equations from each other.

3x + 2y + 3z = 1

subtract

3x + 2y + z = 7

2z = -6

divide by 2

z = -3

add the following two expressions together:

3x + 2y + z = 7

3x + 2y + 3z =1

6x + 4y + 4z = 8

subtract the following two expressions:

6x + 4y + 4z = 8

5x + 5y + 4z = 3

x - y = 5

^multiply the whole equation above by 3

3x - 3y = 15

subtract the following two expressions:

3x - 3y = 15

3x + 2y = 10

-5y = 5

divide each side by -5

y=-1

take the following expression from earlier:

x - y = 5

substitute y value into above equation

x - - 1 = 5

2 negatives make a positive

x + 1 = 5

subtract 1 from each side

x = 4

Therefore x = 4, y = -1, z = -3

I checked these with all 3 equations and they worked :)

(it's quite complicated, comment if you don't understand anything) :)

You deposit $2200 into three separate bank accounts that each pay 3% annual interest. How much interest does each account earn a
Keith_Richards [23]
This can be solve using the formula:
F = P ( 1 + i)^n
where F is the money after n years
P is the initial amount of money
i is the annual interest rate
n is the time in years
since you deposit in 3 accounts P = 2200/3
F = ( 2200 / 3) ( 1 + 0.03)^6
F = $ 875.64 is the money each account earned after 6 years
