Its 400 ..... hope that helps :)
Answer:
x = 60
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is asking
$14,700 * (1 - 8%)^x = $100
$14,700 * (1 - 0.08)^x = $100
$14,700 * (0.92)^x = $100
(0.92)^x = $100/$14,700
log(0.92^x) = log($100/$14,700)
x * log(0.92) = log(0.0068027)
x = log(0.0068027)/log(0.92)
x = 59.85
Since this question is asking in terms of years, we always round up (in this case to 60), as it won't fully be worth $100 by the beginning of the 59th year.
Answer:
The answer is 4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
-1/2 y ≤ -2/5
1/2y ≤ 2/5
y ≤ 2 × 2/5
y ≤ 4/5
Thus, The value of y is 4/5

Answer:
$350,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's define:
- s: amount of short-range missiles produced
- m: amount of medium-range missiles produced
- l: amount of long-range missiles produced
From the total production and the ratios we can write the following equations:
s + m + l = 3000
s/m = 3/3 = 1 = m/s
s/l = 3/4 or l/s = 4/3
Dividing the first equation by s, we get:
s/s + m/s + l/s = 3000/s
1 + 1 + 4/3 = 3000/s
10/3 = 3000/s
s = 3000*3/10 = 900
m = 900
l = 4/3*900 = 1200
From the money that the countries plans to use and each missile cost, we can write the following equation:
200,000*s + 300,000*m + cost*l = 870,000,000
Replacing with previous result:
200,000*900 + 300,000*900 + cost*1200 = 870,000,000
cost = (870,000,000 - 200,000*900 - 300,000*900)/1200 = 350,000
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the initial weight of Porky the pig.
Porky the pig weighs 1,125 lbs less than Kobe the Cow. This means that the initial weight of Kobe the cow is
x + 1125
After each gains 50lbs. Kobe the Cow will weigh ten times as much as porky the pig. This means that
(x + 1125) + 50 = 10(x + 50)
x + 1125 + 50 = 10x + 500
10x - x = 1125 + 50 - 500
9x = 675
x = 675/9
x = 75
Porky's current weight is
75 + 50 = 125 lbs
Kobe's current weight is
(75 + 1125) + 50
= 1250 lbs
