Answer:

  • $10,000 in the 11% fund
  • $5,000 in the stock

Step-by-step explanation:

Let f and s represent the amounts invested in the fund and in stocks, respectively. The problem statement gives rise to two equations:

  f + s = 15000 . . . . . . . Susan invested a total of 15000

  0.11f + (-0.05)s = 850 . . . . . her total return was 850

These can be solved by any of a variety of methods. Using elimination, we can multiply the second equation by 20 and add it to the first:

  20(0.11f -0.05s) +(f + s) = 20(850) +15000

  3.2f = 32000 . . . . . . . . . simplify

  f = 10000

  s = 15000 -f = 5000

Susan invested $10,000 in the fund and $5,000 in stock.

Find the length of the missing side. <br><br> 1) 52 cm<br> 2) 42cm<br> 3) 25 cm<br> 4) 48 cm
padilas [110]

Answer:

52 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the pythagorean theorem to solve for missing sides in a right triangle.

20²+48²= missing side

20²+48²=2704

Take the square root of 2704 to get the missing side.

\sqrt{2704 } = 52

3 exponet 8×4+9÷1×56+57
nika2105 [10]
You would use PEMDAS

But since any number divided by 1 is the number by which it is divided by then you can eliminate that. Now your problem looks like this:
8✖️4➕9✖️56➕57

Since there are no parentheses or exponents then you would multiply.
8✖️4= 32
32➕9✖️56➕57

Then multiply the other multiplication problem.
9✖️56= 504
32➕504➕57

Now you can add all of the numbers together
32➕504=536
536➕57=593

Your answer is 593

Hope this helps! :3
