It will take 14.7 years for Armando's money to double.

Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

The rule of 72 is generally used to estimate the number of years required to double the invested money at a given annual rate of return. And alternatively to find the number of years required to double the money at a given interest rate, we have to just divide the interest rate into 72.

Here, the interest rate is 4.9%. Therefore, it would be as follows

\Rightarrow\frac{72}{4.9} = 14.7 \text{ years }

Rule 72 can be used to identify the following:

  • Number of years it takes an investment to double,
  • Number of years it takes debt to double,
  • The interest rate must earn to double in a time frame,
  • Number of times debt or money will double in a period of time.

Jay spent ten more than three times the number of hours on his science fair project than jamie spent on her project jay spent 43
Aliun [14]
Why did both of their names have to start with the same letter

x=jay hours
y=jamie huours

x=10+3y
x=43


so
43=10+3y
minus 10
33=3y
divide 3
11=y

jamies spent 11 hours

Put in simplest form 8/15 × 5/6
algol13
8/15 x 5/6
•multiply across the numerator and denominator.

= 40/90
• then find a common factor that will go into both the numerator and denominator equally.

Common factor: 5

= 8/18
•there is another common factor, which is 2

9. Solve for x,<br>9x - 25<br>5x + 7<br>N​
kati45 [8]

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

9x + -25 = 5x + 7

Reorder the terms:

-25 + 9x = 5x + 7

Reorder the terms:

-25 + 9x = 7 + 5x

Solving

-25 + 9x = 7 + 5x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-5x' to each side of the equation.

-25 + 9x + -5x = 7 + 5x + -5x

Combine like terms: 9x + -5x = 4x

-25 + 4x = 7 + 5x + -5x

Combine like terms: 5x + -5x = 0

-25 + 4x = 7 + 0

-25 + 4x = 7

Add '25' to each side of the equation.

-25 + 25 + 4x = 7 + 25

Combine like terms: -25 + 25 = 0

0 + 4x = 7 + 25

4x = 7 + 25

Combine like terms: 7 + 25 = 32

4x = 32

Divide each side by '4'.

x = 8

Simplifying

x = 8

A company manufactures running shoes and basketball shoes. The total revenue (in thousands of dollars) from x1 units of running
Alborosie

Answer:

x_1 =2 , x_2=7

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the revenue function given by R(x_1,x_2) = -5x_1^2-8x_2^2 -2x_1x_2+34x_1+116x_2. We want to find the values of each of the variables such that the gradient( i.e the first partial derivatives of the function) is 0. Then, we have the following (the explicit calculations of both derivatives are omitted).

\frac{dR}{dx_1} = -10x_1-2x_2+34 =0

\frac{dR}{dx_2} = -16x_2-2x_1+116 =0

From the first equation, we get, x_2 = \frac{-10x_1+34}{2}.If we replace that in the second equation, we get

-16\frac{-10x_1+34}{2} -2x_1+116=0= 80x_1-2x_1+116-272= 78x_1-156

From where we get that x_1 = \frac{156}{78}=2. If we replace that in the first equation, we get

x_2 = \frac{-10\cdot 2 +34}{2}=\frac{14}{2} = 7

So, the critical point is (x_1,x_2) = (2,7). We must check that it is a maximum. To do so, we will use the Hessian criteria. To do so, we must calculate the second derivatives and the crossed derivatives  and check if the criteria is fulfilled in order for it to be a maximum. We get that

\frac{d^2R}{dx_1dx_2}= -2 = \frac{d^2R}{dx_2dx_1}

\frac{d^2R}{dx_{1}^2}=-10, \frac{d^2R}{dx_{2}^2}=-16

We have the following matrix,  

\left[\begin{matrix} -10 & -2 \\ -2 & -16\end{matrix}\right].

Recall that the Hessian criteria says that, for the point to be a maximum, the determinant of the whole matrix should be positive and the element of the matrix that is in the upper left corner should be negative. Note that the determinant of the matrix is (-10)\cdot (-16) - (-2)(-2) = 156>0 and that -10<0. Hence, the criteria is fulfilled and the critical point is a maximum
