The formula for simple interest is <em>I</em> = <em>prt</em>, where <em>I</em> is the amount of interest, <em>p</em> is the principal borrowed, <em>r</em> is the interest rate written as a decimal number, and <em>t</em> is the amount of time in years. First we find the amount of interest. He borrowed $35000 but paid back $46375. That means he paid 46375-35000 = $11375 in interest. We can now substitute our information into our interest formula:
11375=35000(<em>r</em>)(5)
11375=35000(5)(<em>r</em>) ----- remember that multiplication is commutative
11375=175000<em>r</em>
Divide both sides by 175000 to cancel it:
11375/175000 = 175000<em>r</em>/175000
0.065 = <em>r</em>
To convert this to a percentage, we multiply by 100:
0.065(100) = 6.5%
Volume of the box= <span>56 cubic inches
let x is the length, then
width =</span><span>2 inches shorter than its length = x - 2
</span>height = <span>3 inches taller than its length = x+3
Volume = length x width x height
56 = x x (x-2) x (x+3)
56 = (x</span>² -2x)(x+3)
56 = x³ +3x² -2x² - 6x
56 = x³ + x² -6x
x³+x²-6x-56 = 0
using the rational root theorem and factoring the polynomial;
(x-4)(x² +5x +14) = 0
from here;
x-4 = 0
x = 4
So, length = 4 inches
width = x - 2 = 4 -2 = 2 inches
length = x + 3 = 4 + 3 = 7 inches
volume = l x w x h = 4 x 2 x 7 = 56
Answer:
(x, y) = (-1, 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
8x + y = −7
for y = 1
8x + 1 = -7
subtract 1 from boh sides
8x = -8
divide bot sides by 8
x = -1
(x, y) = (-1, 1)
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Part (a) the probability that two people have a birthday on the 9th of any month.
Neglecting leap year, there are 365 days in a year.
There are 12 possible 9th in months that make a year calendar.
If two people have birthday on 9th; P(1st person) and P(2nd person).

Part (b) the probability that two people have a birthday on the same day of the same month
P(2 people selected have birthday on the same day of same month) + P(2 people selected not having birthday on same day of same month) = 1
P(2 people selected not having birthday on same day of same month):

P(2 people selected have birthday on the same day of same month)
