the simple interest I (in dollars) for a savings account is jointly proportional to the product of time (in years) and the princ

ipal P (in dollars). After 11 months the interest on a principal of $3970 is $86. What is the constant of the variation

Simple interest I is jointly proportional to the product of time in years and the principal, therefore; mathematically;
I α Pt
introducing a constant;
I = kPt; but I = $ 86, P = $ 3970, while t = 11/12 years
Thus; k = I/Pt
            = 86/ 3970(11/12)
            = 0.0236
Therefore, the constant of the variation is ≈ 0.024

I need help with this math problem! Thanks!<br><br> -8 = -( x +4)
Damm [24]

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

If the lonely negative sign infront of the brackets is confusing, it can be rewritten as -1.

To solve, simplify by expanding then isolate x.

-8 = -( x +4)

-8 = -1 ( x +4)       Distribute over brackets by changing the each term's sign

-8 = -x - 4            Start isolating x by moving everything to the other side

-8 +4  = -x -4 + 4        Add 4 to both sides so it cancels out on the right

-4  = -x

-4  = -1x           <= -x is the same at -1x

-4/-1  = -x/-1     <=divide both sides by negative 1

4 = x

x = 4      <= usually we write the variable on the left side

The length of the sides of a triangle is given. Determine
Stels [109]

Answer:

The triangle is a right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

For the triangle to be right, Pythagoras’ theorem must be obeyed

According to the theorem, the square of the longest side (the hypotenuse) equals the sum of the squares of the two other sides

Now, from the given side lengths, the highest value is 10;

squaring this, we have 10^2 = 100

Squaring and adding the other values, we have

6^2 + 8^2 = 36 + 64 = 100

This mean the values are equal and the Pythagoras’ theorem is obeyed

Hence, we can conclude that the triangle with the given side lengths is a right triangle

4 3/4 - 1/3 with it out simplified
otez555 [7]

Answer:

4  5/12

Step-by-step explanation:

We need a common denominator of 12

4 3/4 = 4  3/4 *3/3 = 4 9/12

1/3 *4/4 =4/12

4 9/12 - 4/12 =4  5/12

Find all solutions to the given equation: (x − 3)(x +2) = 0
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

x = -2,3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: (x − 3)(x +2) = 0

To find the solution of above factor.

It is already in factor form.

Two factors are (x-3) and (x+2)

So, set each factor to 0 and solve for x

(x − 3)  = 0     or     (x +2)  = 0

x - 3 = 0   or   x + 2 = 0

x = 3   or  x = -2

Hence, The solution of the (x − 3)(x +2) = 0 are 3 and -2
