$10000 in certificate of deposit

$30000 in mutual funds

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Total amount Stephanie has inherited = $40000

Let x be the amount she should put in certificate of deposit.

So 40000-x is the amount to be deposited in mutual funds

Step 2:

Total interest she wants to earn is 5.4% of $40000 = 5.4*40000/100 = 2160

Interest from certificate of deposit  = 2.1% of x = 2.1 * x /100

Interest from mutual funds is 6.5% = 6.5(40000-x)/100

Sum of the interest from both these equals 2160

so 2.1 * x /100 + 6.5(40000-x)/100 = 2160

=> 0.021x/100 + 2600-0.065x = 2160

=> -0.044x = -440 => x= 10000

Step 3 :

Hence Stephaine should invest $10000 in certificate of deposit and (40000-10000) = $30000 in mutual funds

Determine the missing number in the equation 13-2=12-?​
soldier1979 [14.2K]

For the equation to work, you have to have the same number on both sides of the equal sign

so to find ?, you can do:

13 - 2 = 12 - ?       Simplify

11 = 12 - ?       Subtract 12 on both sides

-1 = - ?     Multiply -1 on both sides

1 = ?

the weight M of an object on Mars varies directly as it’s weight E on Earth. A person who weighs 95 lb on Earth weighs 38 lb on
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

A 100 lb person will weight 40 lb on Mars

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Weight on Mars directly varies as its weight on earth.

Let weight on Mars be = M

Let weight on Earth be = E

Its known that:

M ∝ E

Thus

M=kE

where k is constant of proportionality.

when  E=95\ lb, then M=38\ lb

thus, we have

38=k(95)

dividing both sides by 95.

\frac{38}{95}=\frac{k(95)}{95}

∴ k=\frac{38}{95}

Thus when E= 100, M would be calculated as

M=\frac{38}{95}\times 100

M=\frac{3800}{95}

∴ M=40\ lb  (Answer)

∴ A 100 lb person will weight 40 lb on Mars.
