mark must leave it for 5.5 months or 5 and half moths to gain 5600 in interest​ .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , mark invests 8000 in an account that pays 12% interest and 2000 in one that pays 8%. if he leaves the money in the accounts for the same length of time, We need to find how long must he leave it to gain 5600 in interest​ . Let's find out:

Let mark invests 8000 in an account that pays 12% interest and 2000 in one that pays 8% for time x months , So total interest gain is 5600 i.e.

⇒ \frac{8000(12)}{100}(x) +\frac{2000(8)}{100}(x) =5600

⇒ \frac{8000(12)+2000(8)}{100}(x) =5600

⇒ (80(12)+20(8))(x) =5600

⇒ (960+160)(x) =5600

⇒ (1020)(x) =5600

⇒ x =\frac{5600}{1020}

⇒ x =5.5

Therefore , mark must leave it for 5.5 months or 5 and half moths to gain 5600 in interest​ .

vfiekz [6]

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that

X_i = \left \{ {{1, If , Ith, room, has,exactly, 1,man, and , 1,woman } \atop {0, othewise} \right.

hence,

x = x_1 + x_2+....+x_m

now,

E(x) = E(x_1+x_2+---+x_m)\\\\E(x)=E(x_1)+E(x_2)+---+E(x_m)

attached below is the complete solution

21 cars, 32 motorcycles.
create a system of equations using x for cars and y for motorcycles.
\left \{ {{x+y=53} \atop {4x+2y=148}} \right.
multiply the top equation by 2 to prepare for elimination method
\left \{ {{2x+2y=106} \atop {4x+2y=148}} \right.
subtract terms
\left \{ {{2x+2y=106} \atop {-4x-2y=-148}} \right.  = (-2x = -42)
divide both sides by negative 2 to solve for x
x =21
plug in x  into original equation to solve for y.
21 + y = 53
subtract both sides by 21
y=32
