<span>Answer: When bob starts walking The distance between them is 45-3 = 42 miles If they meet at time t then Yolanda would have walked X/3 minutes and Bob would have walked (42-X)/4 mins X/3 = (42-X)/4 so X = 18 Bob would have walked 42-18 = 24 miles.</span>

What sum of money amounts to rupees 8700 in 3 years at the rate of 24 % per annum

Zina [86]

Given:

Amount = 8700

Time = 3 years

Rate of interest = 24% per annum

To find:

The principal values.

Solution:

Formula for amount:

$A=P\left(1+\dfrac{r}{100}\right)^t$

Where, A is amount, P is principal, r is the rate of interest and t is the number of years.

Putting $A=8700,r=24,t=3$ , we get

$8700=P\left(1+\dfrac{24}{100}\right)^{3}$

$8700=P\left(1+0.24\right)^{3}$

$8700=P\left(1.24\right)^{3}$

$8700=1.906624P$

Divide both sides by 1.906624.

$\dfrac{8700}{1.906624}=P$

$4563.0391729=P$

$P\approx 4563.04$

Therefore, the principal value is about 4563.04.

I would love your help! I'll give Brainliest answer!

Since the graph is a straight line, its equation is of the form;

$y = mx + c$
Where m is the slope and c is the y intercept

We can use any two points on the straight line to find the value of m and c.

Let us use (0,30) and (4,150)

$m = \frac{150 - 30}{4 - 0}$
This simplifies to,

$m = \frac{120}{4} = 30$
Let us substitute the value of m to obtain,

$y = 30x + c$
Substitute any of the points to find c. It is easier to use (0,30).

$30 = 30(0) + c$
$c = 30$
The equation of the graph now becomes,

$y = 30x + 30$
So in 10 weeks Ben will collect,

$y = 30(10) + 30$
$y = 300 + 30$
$y = 330$
Ben will collect 330 papers.

You can also use any two points to find the equation of this line.

A sample of men's heights was taken and the mean was 68.8 inches. The standard deviation is 2.8 inches. What percent of the men

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

87.29%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Mean= 68.8 inches

Standard deviation= 2.8 inches

Now, finding the percent of the men in the sample were greater than 72 inches.

We know, z-score= $\frac{x-mean}{standard\ deviation}$

z-score= $\frac{72-68.8}{2.8}$

⇒ z-score= $\frac{3.2}{2.8} = 1.14$

∴ z-score= 1.14

Next, using normal distribution table to find percentage.

Coverting 0.8729 into percentage= $0.8729\times 100$

We get the percentage as 87.29%

Hence, 87.29% of the men in the sample were greater than 72 inches.
