Answer:

The correct option is B) 4800 square miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

It is given that the fire covered 300 square miles in 3 days ago. And it continues to grow at the same rate.

Therefore, today it covers the twice of area it covers on yesterday.

The area covers by fire 2×300=600 square miles

Now the area covers after 3 days from today will be:

2×2×300 = 2×600 = 1200 square miles

The area covers after 3×2=6 days from today is:

2×2×2×300 = 2400 square miles

The area covers after 3×3=9 days from today is:

2×2×2×2×300 = 4800 square miles

Hence, the correct option is B) 4800 square miles.

Paul has $40000 to invest. His intent is to earn 9% interest on his investment. He can invest part of his money at 6% and part a
Black_prince [1.1K]

Paul needs to invest $10000 at 6% interest and $30000 at 10% interest to make a total of 9% return on his $40000.

<em><u>Explanation</u></em>

Suppose, the amount of money at 6% interest is x

As Paul has total $40000 to invest, so the amount of money at 10% interest will be: (40000-x) dollar

His intent is to earn 9% interest on his $40000 investment. So, the equation will be......

0.06x+0.10(40000-x)=0.09*40000\\ \\ 0.06x+4000-0.10x=3600\\ \\ -0.04x=3600-4000=-400\\ \\ x=\frac{-400}{-0.04}=10000

So, Paul needs to invest <u>$10000 at 6% interest</u> and ($40000- $10000) or <u>$30000 at 10% interest </u>to make a total of 9% return on his $40000.
