Answer:

14 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

10^3 = 1000

14,000 lb/1000 = 14 lb

Since the weight of the elephant is 1000 times the weight of the cat, then the weight of the cat is one-thousandth of the weight of the elephant. To find one-thousandth of a number, divide the number by 1000. 14,000 lb divided by 1000 is 14 lb.

P.S. I feel much better for the cat.

The cat weighs 140 pounds as 14,000 (the elephant) divided by 100 as it is 100 times the amount is 140.

Dan invests £1200 into his bank account. He receives 5% per year compound interest. How much will dan have after5 years?
solmaris [256]

Answer:

Dan will have $1,531.53 after 5 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer, you can use the following formula to calculate the future value:

F= P(1 + r)^t

F= Future value

P= Present value= 1200

r= rate of interest= 5%

t= time= 5

F=1200(1+0.05)^5

A=1200(1.05)^5

A=1531.53

According to this, the answer is that Dan will have $1,531.53 after 5 years.

Solve the following question
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

they are 16 and 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We can call the numbers x and y and we can write:

x - y = 12

x + y = 20

Adding these equations gives us 2x = 32 which means x = 16 and substituting this value into the first equation gives us y = 4.
