Let x be the amount invested at 8%
the remaining amount (27,000 - x) was invested at 7%. After one year 
$x yielded an interest A₁  OR A₁ = x(0.08)
The remained yielded an interest of A₂ = (27000 - x) (8%)
A₁   =   x(0.08)
A₂   =   (27000 - x) (8%)
----       ---------------------------------
A₁+A₂ = x(0.08) + (27000 - x) (8%)

2050 = x(0.08) + (27000 - x) (8%)

2050 = 0.08x - 0.07x +1890
2050 - 1890 = 0.01x

x = 160/0.01 = $16,000 @ 8% and $11,000 @ 7%

8%X + 7%(27000-X) = 2050
.08X + 1890 + .07X = 2050
.15X = 160
X = $1067.67

Describe how you can use the make a ten strategy to find the sum 7+9
kondor19780726 [428]
I don't quite understand the ten strategy, or what EXACTLY you're asking. But, what you can do is when you add a one digit number plus a nine, just change the nine to a ten and subtract one. It is very easy. So, 7+10 equals 17, subtract one and you get 16 which is 7+9. It is always one less than anything plus 10.

PLEASE HELP ME!! PLEASE!
juin [17]
1. There is no "h" in f(x) = log(x). The question is nonsense.

2. The log function is defined for arguments greater than zero. You're probably expected to select D, though A and B could also be correct.

3. Same deal. The log function is defined for x > -2, but the domain could be restricted to x > 2. You're expected to select FALSE.

4. Same deal. Choose B, though D is also correct.

5. C is the proper choice. (See discussion of the log function, above.)

Riley makes a mistake in step 2 while doing her homework. What was her mistake? StartFraction x Over x squared minus 5 x + 6 End
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

The answer is:

She used the wrong common denominator

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving the given equation

\frac{x}{x^2-5x+6}+\frac{x}{x+3}\\\\Step 1: \frac{x}{(x-2)(x-3)}+\frac{x}{x+3}\\Step2: \frac{x}{(x-2)(x-3)}+\frac{x(x-2)}{(x-2)(x+3)}\\Step3:\frac{x(x+3)+x(x-2)(x+3)}{(x-2)(x-3)(x+3)}

Lets consider the steps given in the question:

Step2: \frac{x}{(x-2)(x+3)}+\frac{3(x-2)}{(x-2)(x+3)}

Step3: \frac{x+3(x-2)}{(x-2)(x+3)}\\

Lets compare both solutions:

In the original solution, the denominator of first term is (x-2)(x-3)

In the solution given in the question, the denominator of first term is (x-2)(x+3).

So the mistake she did in step 2 was that she change the sign of 3 in (x-3) from negative to positive, due to which she gets the wrong common denominator shown in Step 3.

The length of a rectangle is 10 feet longer than it is wide. If each side is increased 10 feet, then the area is multiplied by 2

Answer:

The with and length of the original rectangle are:

width: 20 ft

Length: 30 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets check

Yes, 30 is 10 longer then 20,

the area of the original is 600

if it was 40 and 30 then it would equal 1200
