If the principal, interest rate, or time in a simple interest problem is doubled, and the other two quanities remain constant, h

Alex17521 [72]

one would say that the simple interest doubles if the period of time is specified in the contract and the contract is still valid, if the interest amount is available anitime and so on.

So if the amount doubles let's say at half time for which the principal was awarded to the bank, by the end of the contract , the interest amount can be double × just increased by 1.5

For every 5 pages in a book Fred reads, Lonnie reads 4 pages. In 1 hour, they read a combined total of 36 pages. How many pages

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Hence the number of pages read by Lonnie is 16 pages when they read a combined of 36 pages.

Step-by-step explanation:

The table that can be formed by the rate at which they study the number of pages of a book is:

Fred Lonnie total

5 4 9

10 8 18

15 12 27

20 16 36

That means when they read a combined of 36 pages.

Then the number of pages read by Fred is 20 pages.

and the number of pages read by Lonnie is 16 pages.

(

Also it could be done as :

Let Fred reads 'x' pages.

so, the number of pages read by Lonnie is: (4/5)x

Hence,

x+(4/5)x=36

on solving this linear equation we have:

x=20

and (4/5)x=16

)

Hence the number of pages read by Lonnie is 16 pages when they read a combined of 36 pages.

The elevation of Sports Authority Field in Denver, Colorado is 5280ft. If this is 275ft higher than seven times the elevation of

kap26 [50]

Answer:

The elevation of Lucas Oil Field is of 715 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Elevation of Sports Authority Field:

Of 5280 ft.

Compared to Lucas Oil Field:

275ft than seven times the Lucas Oil Field elevation of x.

Equation:

$275 + 7x = 5280$

What is the elevation of Lucas Oil Field?

Solving the above equation:

$7x = 5280 - 275$

$7x = 5005$

$x = \frac{5005}{7}$

$x = 715$

The elevation of Lucas Oil Field is of 715 feet.

I'LL GIVE YOU BRAINIEST!<br> 1 1/5 · x/3 = 9/10 solve for x

joja [24]

$\huge\text{Hey there!}$

$\huge\textbf{Equation:}$

$\mathbf{1 \dfrac{1}{5} \times \dfrac{x}{3} = \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\huge\textbf{Solve:}$

$\mathbf{1 \dfrac{1}{5} \times \dfrac{x}{3} = \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow \dfrac{1\times5+1}{5} \times \dfrac{x}{3} = \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow \dfrac{5 + 1}{5} \times \dfrac{x}{3} = \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow \dfrac{6}{5} \times \dfrac{x}{3} = \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\huge\textbf{Simplify it:}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow \dfrac{2}{5}x = \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\huge\textbf{Multiply \boxed{\bf \dfrac{5}{2}} to both sides:}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow \dfrac{5}{2}\times \dfrac{2}{5}x = \dfrac{5}{2}\times \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\huge\textbf{Simplify it:}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow x = \dfrac{5}{2}\times \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow x = \dfrac{5\times9}{2\times10}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow x = \dfrac{45}{20}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow x = \dfrac{45\div5}{20\div5}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow x = \dfrac{9}{4}}$

$\mathbf{x \approx 2 \dfrac{1}{4}}$

$\huge\textbf{Therefore, your answer should be:}$

$\huge\boxed{\mathsf{x = }\frak{2 \dfrac{1}{4}}}\huge\checkmark$

The question is in the picture. Plz helppp it is due tonight

Mkey [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We're given one equation, we have to find the other equation and solve each for 200, and whichever has the lower x is the winner

for Jayden we are given

$(0, 48), (1, 56), (2, 64), (3, 72), (4, 80)$

This looks to be a line. The y values are each separated by a common difference

We can use two points to describe the line

$m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} = \frac{80-48}{4-0} = \frac{32}{4} = 8\\ K = 8m + b\\48 = 8(0) + b\\b = 48\\so\\K = 8m + 48$

Now we can set both $K = 8m + 48$ and $K = m^2 + 10$ equal to 200

$200 = 8m + 48\\152 = 8m \\m = \frac{152}{8} = 19$

$200 = m^2 + 10\\m^2 = 190\\m = \sqrt{190} = 13.784$
