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

1. The scale of a map is 1 in = 19.5 mi map: ________ in actual: 9.5 mi 2. The scale of a map is 7 in = 16 mi map: 4.9 in actual

alexandr402 [8]

We use ratio and proportion to solve each of these:

1. The scale of a map is 1 in = 19.5 mi map: ________ in actual: 9.5 mi
1 in / 19.5 mi = x in / 9.5 mi, x = 0.487 in

2. The scale of a map is 7 in = 16 mi map: 4.9 in actual: ______ mi
7 in / 16 mi = 4.9 in / x mi, x = 11.2 mi

3. The scale factor for a model is 5 cm = ________ m Model : 72.5 cm actual: 165.3 m
5 cm / x m = 72.5 cm / 165.3 m, x = 11.4 m

4. The scale of a map is 1 in = 9.6 mi map: ________ in actual: 34.7 mi
1 in / 9.6 mi = x in / 34.7 mi, x = 3.62 in

5. The scale of a map is 1 ft = 9.6 mi map: ________ ft actual: 38.4 mi
1 ft / 9.6 mi = x ft / 38.4 mi, x = 4 ft

6. The scale factor for a model is 5 cm = ________ m Model : 22.4 cm actual: 155.2 m
5 cm / x m = 22.4 cm / 155.2 m, x = 34.64 m

7. The scale of a map is 5 in = 10 mi map: 8.7 in actual: ______ mi
5 in / 10 mi = 8.7 in / x mi, x = 17.4 mi

8. The scale of a map is 1 in = 13.5 mi map: ________ in actual: 65.9 mi
1 in / 13.5 mi = x in / 65.9 mi, x = 4.88 in

9. The scale factor for a model is 5 cm = ________ m Model : 61.5 cm actual: 143.2 m
5 cm / x m = 61.5 / 143.2 m, x = 11.64 m

10. The scale factor for a model is 5 cm = ________ m Model : 29.7 cm actual: 179.5 m
5 cm / x m = 29.7 cm / 179.5 m, x = 30.22 m

write an equation of the line passing through point p that is perpendicular to the given line p(6,10),y=-3x+13

patriot [66]

Answer:

y = $\frac{1}{3}$ x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

y = - 3x + 13 is in this form

with m = - 3

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

$m_{perpendicular}$ = - $\frac{1}{m}$ = - $\frac{1}{-3}$ = $\frac{1}{3}$

y = $\frac{1}{3}$ x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (6, 10) into the partial equation

10 = 2 + c ⇒ c = 10 - 2 = 8

y = $\frac{1}{3}$ x + 8 ← equation of line

alukav5142 [94]

Answer: Each bow needs 4.67 yards of ribbon.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that each roll has 20 yd.

She used 3 + 1/2 rolls, then the total length used will be (3 + 1/2) times the length of each roll, this is:

(3 + 1/2)*20 yd = (6/2 + 1/2)*20yd = (7/2)*20yd = 70 yd.

With tose 70 yards of ribbon, she made 15 bows, then the length of ribbon used in each bow will be equal to the quotient between the total length used and the number of ribbons made with it, this is:

70yd/15 = 4.67 yards

Each bow needs 4.67 yards of ribbon.
