7/8 of a cup. If you add 1+1 and then take away 1, you still have 1.
Answer:
Runner Up Amount=$16,000
Winner Amount=$64,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount of the college's scholarship=$80,000
The fund is being divided between the top two contestants so that the winner receives four times as much as the runner-up.
Therefore: we can say it is being divided into 5 parts where the winner gets 4 parts and the runner up gets 1 part, i.e in the ratio 4:1.
Runner Up Amount
Winner Amount
The winner gets $64,000 and the runner up gets $16,000.
Divide each term by 6 and simplify.
x = −9
225000=200000(1.03^t)
9/8=1.03^t
ln(9/8)=tln(1.03)
t=ln(9/8)/ln(1.03)
t=3.98
t=4 years
