Answer: Amir is faster than Ryder by speed of 104 meter per second.



Step-by-step explanation:


Speed of Amir=8,260 mm per second

We know that 1m =1000mm

Convert into meter per second, divide speed by 1000

Speed of Amir

Speed of Ryder=930 centimeters per second

We know that 1m =100 cm

Convert into meter per second, divide speed by 100

Speed of Ryder

As distance covered by both of then is same in relay race thus we can compare their speeds

We can see 8.26<9.3 and difference=9.3-8.26=1.04

Amir is faster than Ryder by speed of 1.04 meter per second.

You are given 1000 one dollar bills and 10 envelopes. Put the bills into the envelopes in such a way that someone can ask you fo
taurus [48]

Answer:

We can do it with envelopes with amounts $1,$2,$4,$8,$16,$32,$64,$128,$256 and $489

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Observe that, in binary system, 1023=1111111111. That is, with 10 digits we can express up to number 1023.

This give us the idea to put in each envelope an amount of money equal to the positional value of each digit in the representation of 1023. That is, we will put the bills in envelopes with amounts of money equal to $1,$2,$4,$8,$16,$32,$64,$128,$256 and $512.

However, a little modification must be done, since we do not have $1023, only $1,000. To solve this, the last envelope should have $489 instead of 512.

Observe that:

  1. 1+2+4+8+16+32+64+128+256+489=1000
  2. Since each one of the first 9 envelopes represents a position in a binary system, we can represent every natural number from zero up to 511.
  3. If we want to give an amount "x" which is greater than $511, we can use our $489 envelope. Then we would just need to combine the other 9 to obtain x-489 dollars. Since x-489\leq511, by 2) we know that this would be possible.

Briony invests some money. Interest is paid on the money at a rate of 2% per annum for the first year and 1% per annum for the s
nalin [4]

Answer:

Brionny invested £8400.

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple Interest

This is a simple interest problem.

The simple interest formula is given by:

E = P*I*t

In which E is the amount of interest earned, P is the principal(the initial amount of money), I is the interest rate(yearly, as a decimal) and t is the time.

After t years, the total amount of money is:

T = E + P

In this question:

We divide in two intervals, the first year and the second year. We have to know that the amount after the end of the first year is the principal at the start of the second year.

First year:

Amount of 2% interest, during 1 year.

So the interest earned is:

E = P*I*t = P*0.02*1 = 0.02P

The total amount at the end of the first year is:

T = E + P = 0.02P + P = 1.02P

Second year:

We have that:

P = 1.02P

The interest earned is of:

E = P*I*t = 1.02P*0.01*1 = 0.0102P

The total amount is:

T = E + P = 0.0102P + 1.02P = 1.0302P

After two years, the investment is worth £8653.68 How much did Briony invest?

So

1.0302P = 8653.68

P = \frac{8653.68}{1.0302}

P = 8400

Brionny invested £8400.
