the tigers won twice as many football games as they lost. They played 96 games. How many games did they win?

1 answer:

7 0

They lost L games.
They won W games.
W = 2L

W + L = 96, but W = 2L, so

2L + L = 96

3L = 96

L = 32

W = 2L = 2 * 32 = 64

They won 64 games.

If the principal is $300 rate 3% time 4 years then what is the interest earned and the new balance

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

a) Interest earned = $36

New Balance = $336

b) Interest rate = 0.05 or 5%

New Balance = $517.5

c) time t = 5

New Balance = $612.5

d) Principal Amount = $675

New Balance = $783

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

a) Principal (P) = $300

Rate (r) = 3% or 0.03

Time (t)= 4 years

Interest earned = ?

The formula used is: $Simple \ Interest (I)= P\times r\times t$

Putting values and finding interest

$Simple \ Interest (I)= P\times r\times t\\Simple \ Interest (I)= 300\times 0.03\times 4\\Simple \ Interest (I)= 36$

So, Interest earned = $36

New Balance = Principal + Interest = 300+36 = $336

b) a) Principal (P) = $300

Rate (r) = ?

Time (t)= 3 years

Interest earned = 67.50

The formula used is: $Simple \ Interest (I)= P\times r\times t$

Putting values and finding rate

$Simple \ Interest (I)= P\times r\times t\\67.50= 450\times r\times 3\\67.50=1350\times r\\r=\frac{67.50}{1350}\\r=0.05 \ or \ 5\%$

So, Interest rate = 0.05 or 5%

New Balance = Principal + Interest = 450+67.50 = $517.5

c) Principal (P) = $500

Rate (r) = 4.5% or 0.045

Time (t)= ?

Interest earned = $112.50

The formula used is: $Simple \ Interest (I)= P\times r\times t$

Putting values and finding time

$Simple \ Interest (I)= P\times r\times t\\112.50= 500\times 0.045\times t\\112.50=22.5 \times t\\t=\frac{112.50}{22.5}\\t=5$

So, time t = 5

New Balance = Principal + Interest = 500+112.50 = $612.5

d) Principal (P) = ?

Rate (r) = 8% or 0.08

Time (t)= 2 years

Interest earned = 108.00

The formula used is: $Simple \ Interest (I)= P\times r\times t$

Putting values and finding Principal

$Simple \ Interest (I)= P\times r\times t\\108=P\times 0.08 \times 2\\108=P\times 0.16\\P=\frac{108}{0.16}\\P=675$

So, Principal Amount = $675

New Balance = Principal + Interest = 675+108 = $783

What is the mode of the data set?

Alex17521 [72]

1. the mode is 100 because 100 is the most common number in that sequence

2. the mean is 193.8 because if you add up 108, 306, 252, 113, and 191 then divide that by 5 you get 193.8

The cost, in dollars, of producing x belts is given by Upper C (x )equals 970 plus 12 x minus 0.076 x squared. The revenue, i

umka21 [38]

Answer:

$68.44 for each additional belt

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost and revenue functions are:

$C(x) = 970+12x - 0.076x^2\\R(x) =43x^{\frac{3}{4}}$

The profit function, P(x), is given by subtracting the cost function from the revenue function.

$P(x) = R(x) - C(x)\\P(x)=43x^{\frac{3}{4}}+0.076x^2-12x-970\\$

The derivate of the profit function gives us the rate at which profit changes:

$\frac{dP(x)}{dx} =P'(x)=32.25x^{\frac{-1}{4}}+0.152x-12\\$

For x = 484, the rate of change is:

$P'(484)=32.25*484^{\frac{-1}{4}}+0.152*484-12\\P'(484) = \$68.44/belt$

Profit is increasing by $68.44 for each additional belt
