Oscar invests $20,000 in three investments earning 6% ,8% and 10%. He invests $9000 more in the 10% investment than in the 6% in

Hatshy [7]

This problem is mainly concerned with setting up an equation.

let's add the interest rates times their respective investment amounts:

$a = (9000 + x)0.10$

$b = x \times 0.06$

$c=(20000 - ((9000 + x) + x)) 0.08$

simplify:

$c = (11000 - 2x) \times 0.08$

sum of interest:

$1780 = a + b + c$

1780 = (9000+x) 0.10 + x 0.06 + (11000-2x)0.08

$1780 = 1780 + 0 \times x$

$0=0$

solution:

He does not have any invested in the 6%, while he has 9000 invested at 10% and 11,000 invested at 8%

to check:

$9000 \times 0.10 + 11000 \times 0.08$

$= 900 + 880 = 1780$

So this ended up being a trick problem because he does not actually have any invested in the 6% option.

A track and field playing area is in the shape of a rectangle with semicircles at each end . The perimeter of the track is to be

MAVERICK [17]

We can let the radius of the semi circles be r and x can be the length of the rectangle.
The perimeter will be Perimeter = 2x + 2pr = 1200
The area of the rectangle is Area = x(2r)
Once we solve the perimeter equation, you get x = 600.
Put this into the area equation and you get Area = (600 - pr)(2r)
The maximum then gives r = 95. 493 and area 57, 295.8
Dimensions

Height is twice the radius or 190.986. Find base use equation x = 600 - p(95.493) = 300.

This means dimensions are 300 by 190.986

Line segment AB has a slope of 4/3 and contains point A (6,-5). What is the y-coordinate of point Q(2, y) if QA is perpendicular

timofeeve [1]

$\bf \stackrel{\textit{perpendicular lines have \underline{negative reciprocal} slopes}} {\stackrel{slope~of~AB}{\cfrac{4}{3}}\qquad \qquad \qquad \stackrel{reciprocal}{\cfrac{3}{4}}\qquad \stackrel{negative~reciprocal}{-\cfrac{3}{4}}}\impliedby \textit{slope of QA} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill$

$\bf A(\stackrel{x_1}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-5})\qquad Q(\stackrel{x_2}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{y}) \\\\\\ slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{y-(-5)}{2-6}=\stackrel{\textit{QA's slope}}{-\cfrac{3}{4}}\implies \cfrac{y+5}{-4}=\cfrac{-3}{4} \\\\\\ 4y+20=12\implies 4y=-8\implies y=\cfrac{-8}{4}\implies \boxed{y=-2}$
