Joey has $400 in a bank account that earns 8% in annual interest. Would this equation be Linear or Exponential?

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Exponential

The first year, he would earn 8% interest on the $400 deposited, so he'd have $432. The next year, he would earn 8% interest on the interest earned the previous year in addition to the amount deposited, so he'd have $466.56.

His bank balance would follow the compound interest equation which is exponential.

= 400 × 1.08^t

where t is the number of years since the deposit

A salesman is carrying a big bag for selling a machine. In addition to the machine that the salesman wants to sell, there is som

The total weight of the bag that the salesman is carrying for selling a machine including some personal stuff is 13.9 Kg.

<h3>What is a fraction?</h3>

A fraction is a rational number that consists of a numerator and a denominator, used to represent a part of the whole thing.

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

It is given that,

A salesman is carrying a big bag for selling a machine.

Consider the weight of the machine = w

So,

The weight of his machine is three kilograms and half a machine. I.e.,

w = 3kg +w/2

⇒ w/2 = 3kg

∴ w = 6kg

Thus, the weight of the machine is 6 Kg.

So, the weight of the repair tool for the machine = a half kilogram and one-fourth of the machine

⇒ 1/2Kg + 1/4w

⇒ 1/2 + 6/4

⇒ 2 Kg

The personal stuff weighs - four kilograms minus a fourth of the weight of the machine.

⇒ 4Kg - w/4

⇒ 4 - 6/4

⇒ 2.5 Kg

He has some supplies that weigh two-fifth of the machine and personal stuff combined.

⇒ 2/5(w + 2.5)

⇒ 2/5 × 8.5

⇒ 3.4 Kg

Thus, the total weight of the bag = 6 Kg + 2 Kg + 2.5 Kg + 3.4Kg = 13.9Kg.

Therefore, the total weight of the salesman's bag is 13.9 Kg.

The distance from the Earth to Saturn averages 886 million (886,000,000) miles. Write this number in scientific notation.

kiruha [24]

Answer:

8.86 x 10^8

Step-by-step explanation:

Scientific notation means that you represent the standard form of a number like this:

number less than ten x 10 to the ___ power

In standard form, the decimal point is at the end of 886,000,000.

You have to move the decimal point to the left until it creates a number less than 10, but greater than 1:

8.86,000,000

You count how many decimal places you moved it. In this case, it is 8.

So your answer becomes 8.86 x 10^8

PLEASE HELP! Explain your answer, THANK YOU!

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

-2/-3

Step-by-step explanation:

(75, 60) (45, 40)

75 60 since 75 is larger than 45, we subtract = -30

45 40 since 60 is larger than 40, we subtract = -20

= -20/-30

reduce

= -2/-3

In the 2014 - 2015 school year, the mean score on the critical reading of the SAT was 490 with a standard deviation of 102 for j

bonufazy [111]

<u>Answer:</u>

The Ranking Percentile is (B) 97.5%

<u>Explanation :</u>

To find the percentile rank we need to find the z- score. After finding the z-score match this value with the corresponding value in z-score table.

Formula to find the z-score

Z-score= $\frac{\text { scored obtained - mean }(\mu)}{\text { standard deviation }(\sigma)}$

Substituting the values in the above equation, we find

Z-score= $\frac{(694-490)}{102}$ =2

So, the Z-score is +2

Now, the corresponding value of Z-score 2 in the table is 0.9772

or the percentile score is 97.72 ~ 97.5 .
