Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

so next year her money would be 6% more so:

5000 + (0.6 * 5000) = (1.06) * 5000

So each year she'll have : (1.06)*(last year's money)

So we can say after n years she will have :

((1.06)^n) * 5000

So:

5000((1.06)^n)=50000

n is 39.5

So around 40

NikAS [45]

Answer:

1.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the scale, we can simply multiply the distance that Sonja measured on the map by the actual mile distance that it states on the scale (1/2 or 0.5) to calculate the actual distance between Sonja's house and Sal's house like so...

3 * 0.5 = 1.5 miles

Therefore, we can see now that there is a total actual distance of 1.5 miles between both of their houses, which is represented as 3 inches on the map.

The length of a rectangle is 5 yd longer than its width.
romanna [79]

Answer:

w = 13yd, l = 18yd

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be width, so x+5 = length

Perimeter is sum of all 4 sides, and since opposite sides equal in rectangle,

P = 2(l+w)

  = 2(x+5 +x)

  = 4x + 10

Since perimeter is give as 62yd, equation is

4x + 10 = 62

4x = 52

x = 13
