Answer:
a^3 - b^2 for a = 3 and b = 1/2
3^3 - (1/2)^2
= 27 - 1/4
= 26 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
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%
10/12= $.83 per inch
20/18= $1.11 per inch
1.37x + 1.08y = 16.36
x + y = 13
x = 13 - y
1.37* (13-y) + 1.08y = 16.36
17.81 - 1.37y + 1.08y = 16.36
1.08y - 1.37y = 16.36 - 17.81
-0.29y = -1.45
y = 5
x + 5 = 13
x = 13-5
x = 8
He bought 8 notebooks and 5 book covers
I believe it is 3x+21 but i could be wrong :/ my explaination is -3 • -X would be +3x because it was distributed and -3 • -7 would be +21
