Answer:

present value = $16750

Step-by-step explanation:

The simple interest formula allows us to calculate A, which is the final amount. According to this formula, the amount is given by A = P (1 + r*t), where P is the principal, r is the annual interest rate in decimal form, and t is the loan period expressed in years

simple interest formula:

t: time

P: present value

A: amount

r : anual interest

A = P (1 + r*t)

P = A / (1 + r*t)

P = 19,513.75 / (1 + 3/100 * 5.5)

P = 19,513.75/ (1 + 0.165)

P = 19,513.75 / 1.165

P = 16750

present value = $16750

Jessica and Martha each have a bag of cookies with unequal quantities. They have 30 cookies total between the two of them. Each

Basile [38]

Answer:

Part 1) The inequality that describes the relationship between the number of cookies each one of them has is $x^{2} -30x+224\geq 0$

Part 2) Jessica has at least 2 cookies more than Martha

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) Find the inequality that describes the relationship between the number of cookies each one of them has

Let

x----> the number of cookies when Jessica started

30-x ----> the number of cookies when Martha started

we know that

Each of them ate 6 cookies from their bag

The cookies left in each bag are

(x-6) ----> Jessica

and (30-x-6)=(24-x) ---> Martha

The product is equal to (x-6)(24-x)

The product of the number of cookies left in each bag is not more than 80.

$(x-6)(24-x)\leq 80\\ \\24x-x^{2}-144+6x\leq 80\\ \\-x^{2} +30x-144-80\leq 0\\ \\-x^{2} +30x-224\leq 0$

Multiply by -1 both sides

$x^{2} -30x+224\geq 0$

Part 2) Solve the quadratic equation

$x^{2} -30x+224\geq 0$

Solve by graphing

The solution is x=16 cookies

(30-x)=30-16=14 cookies

therefore

The number of cookies when Jessica started was 16 cookies

The number of cookies when Martha started was 14 cookies

The number of cookies left in each bag is equal to

Jessica

16-6=10 cookies

Martha

14-6=8 cookies

Jessica has at least 2 cookies more than Martha

Find an equation for the line that passes through the points (4,3) and (-6,5)

mixer [17]

Answer:

y = -1/5x + 19/5 or

x + 5y = 19.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line (m) = (5-3) / (-6-4)

= -1/5.

Using the point-slope form of the equation of a line:

y - y1 = m(x - x1) m = -1/5. x1 = 4 and y1 = 3 , so:

y - 3 = -1/5(x - 4)

y - 3 = -1/5x + 4/5

y = -1/5x + 19/5 which is the equation in slope-intercept form.

Converting to standard form ( multiplying by 5):

5y = -x + 19

x + 5y = 19.
