Many has 48 feet of wood he wants to use all of it to create a border around a garden. The equation 2l+2w=48 can be used to find

the length and width of the garden,where l is the length and w is the width of the garden. If manny makes the garden 15 feet long, how wide should the garden be ?

2L + 2W = 48

L= 15 feet

substitute the given value to the formula provided.

2(15) + 2W = 48

multiply 2 by 15

30 + 2W = 48

use the subtraction property of equality to cancel the value 30 on the left side.

30 - 30 + 2W = 48 - 30

cancel 30 on the left side leaving 2W while subtract 30 from 48.

2W = 18

divide both sides to get the value of the width.

2W/2 = 18/2

W = 9ft this is the final answer.

The table shows the results of a poll of 200 randomly selected juniors and seniors who were asked if they attended prom. Find th

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

(a) $\frac{7}{25}$

(b) $\frac{19}{116}$

(c) $\frac{28}{125}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of juniors who attended prom,n(J)=28

Number of seniors who attended prom,n(S)=97

Total of those who attended prom=125

Number of juniors who did not attend prom,n(J')=56

Number of seniors who did not attend prom,n(S')=19

Total of those who attended prom=75
Total Number of students=200

(a) P (a junior who did not attend prom)

$P(J')=\frac{56}{200}= \frac{7}{25}$

(b)

$P(Senior)=\frac{116}{200}$

$P ($did not attend prom$ | senior)=\frac{\text{P(seniors who did not attend prom)}}{P(Senior)} \\=\frac{19/200}{116/200} \\=\frac{19}{116}$

(c)P (junior | attended prom)

$P(Senior)=\frac{84}{200}$

$P (Junior|$ attended prom$)=\frac{\text{P(juniors who attended prom)}}{P(\text{those who attended prom)}} \\=\frac{28/200}{125/200} \\=\frac{28}{125}$

Suppose a principal amount of $2079 were invested into a simple interest account that pays an annual rate of 2.31% then the amou

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

The amount of interest earned at the end of 14 years would be $672.3486

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a simple interest problem.

The simple interest formula is given by:

$E = P*I*t$

In which E are the earnings, P is the principal(the initial amount of money), I is the interest rate(yearly, as a decimal) and t is the time.

In this problem, we have that:

$P = 2079, I = 0.0231, t = 14$

So

$E = 2079*0.0231*14 = 672.3486$

The amount of interest earned at the end of 14 years would be $672.3486
