The amount in the passbook account is $11,000 and the money in the money market account is $8000

Let:

a represent the unknown amount in the passbook account

b represent the unknown amount in the money market account

From the question, the following information can be gathered:

The money in the passbook account exceeds the amount in the money market account.

This information can be represented with this equation : a - b = 3000

The interest paid on the passbook account exceeds the interest paid on the money market account.

This information can be represented with this equation : 0.08a - 0.10b = 80

The two equations gotten above would be solved using simultaneous equation and the elimination method

a - b = 3000 equation 1

0.08a - 0.10b = 80 equation 2

Multiply equation 1 by 0.08

0.08 - 0.08b = 240 equation 3

Subtract equation 2 from 3

0.02b = 160

Divide both sides of the equation by 0.02

b = 8000

Substitute for b in equation 1

a - 8000 = 3000

Add 8000 to both sides

a = 11,000

The width of a rectangle is increasing at a rate of 2 cm/sec, while the length increases at 3 cm/sec. At what rate is the area i

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

The area of the rectangle is increasing at a rate of $22\ cm^2/s$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The width of a rectangle is increasing at a rate of 2 cm/ sec. While the length increases at 3 cm/sec.

To find : At what rate is the area increasing when w = 4 cm and I = 5 cm?

Solution :

The area of the rectangle with length 'l' and width 'w' is given by $A=l w$

Derivative w.r.t 't',

$\frac{dA}{dt}=w\frac{dl}{dt}+l\frac{dw}{dt}$

Now, we have given

$\frac{dl}{dt}=3\ cm/s$

$l=5\ cm$

$\frac{dw}{dt}=2\ cm/s$

$w=4\ cm$

Substitute all the values,

$\frac{dA}{dt}=(4)(3)+(5)(2)$

$\frac{dA}{dt}=12+10$

$\frac{dA}{dt}=22\ cm^2/s$

Therefore, the area of the rectangle is increasing at a rate of $22\ cm^2/s$ .
