Answer:

$9600 saving / year

Step-by-step explanation:

1/5 of $21000 = 21000 / 5 = $4200 / month on rent

3/7 of $21000 = (21000 / 7) x 3 = $9000 / month on food (shocking right :) food is expensive)

1/3 of $21000 = 21000 / 3 = $7000 on other expenses / month

total savings/month = salary/month - rent/month - food/month - other expenses/month

total savings/month = 21000 - 4200 - 9000 - 7000

total savings/month = $800

<u><em>BUT</em></u> the question asks for savings per year. therefore, we must multiply the savings per month by total months per year (12)

800 x 12 = $9600

the person's total savings per year, with a salary of $21000 per month, is equal to $9600 per year

Step-by-step explanation: this took me some time but I multiplied multiple times each time and I got this I hope it’s correct.

Btw I multiplied 2 times 8 then multipled with 11 then multipied 172 times 8 then multiplied by 14 and got 19,712. Then, I multiplied 19,712 by 16 and got 315,392

Comparing Leaking Pool Problem
Blababa [14]

Answer:

<em>Pool 1 leaks faster than pool 2.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Rates of change</u>

The rate of change (ROC) is a measure that compares two quantities, usually to know how fast one variable changes in time.

We are given two rates of change for two pools that are leaking. The first one loses 2/3 gallon in 15 minutes, and the other loses 3/4 gallon in 20 minutes.

To compare them, we are required to express time in hours. Recall one hour has 60 minutes, or equivalently, one minute has 1/60 hours. Converting both times, we have:

15 minutes = 15/60 = 1/4 hours

20 minutes = 20/60 = 1/3 hours

Now compute both rates of change:

Pool 1:

\displaystyle ROC_1=\frac{2/3}{1/4}=\frac{8}{3}\approx 2.67\ gal/h

Pool 2:

\displaystyle ROC_2=\frac{3/4}{1/3}=\frac{9}{4}= 2.25\ gal/h

Comparing both ratios, it's clear pool 1 leaks faster than pool 2.

A bag contains 3 red apples and 6 yellow apples. 3 apples are selected at random. Find the probability of selecting 1 red apple
Mrac [35]

Step-by-step explanation:

number \: of \: ways \: to \:  select \: 3 \: out \:   of \:  9 =  {C}^{9}_3  = 84

ways \: to \: select \: 1red \: and \: 2yellow \: apples \:  =  {C}^{3}_1 \times  {C}^{6}_2 = 3 \times 15 = 45

<u>Probability of selecting 1 red and 2 yellow apples</u> = 45 / 84 = 0.53
