Answer:
750 grams of 60% alloy
Step-by-step explanation:
Define x = amount of 60% alloy and y = amount of 20% alloy
Equating the amounts of gold:
0.6x+0.2y = 1000(0.5)
Since there must be 1000 grams total:
x+y = 1000
Writing the 2 resulting equations together:
0.6x + 0.2y = 500
x + y = 1000
Multiply the first equation by 5:
3x + y = 2500
x + y = 1000
Subtracting the 2nd equation from the 1st:
2x = 1500
x = 750
Answer: 750 grams of 60% alloy
Answer:
12 cm and 24 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The line is divided in the ratio 2 : 4 = 2x : 4x ( x is a multiplier )
The sum is therefore
2x + 4x = 36
6x = 36 ( divide both sides by 6 )
x = 6
Thus
GP = 2x = 2 × 6 = 12 cm
PR = 4x = 4 × 6 = 24 cm
Answer:
They lose about 2.79% in purchasing power.
Step-by-step explanation:
Whenever you're dealing with purchasing power and inflation, you need to carefully define what the reference is for any changes you might be talking about. Here, we take <em>purchasing power at the beginning of the year</em> as the reference. Since we don't know when the 6% year occurred relative to the year in which the saving balance was $200,000, we choose to deal primarily with percentages, rather than dollar amounts.
Each day, the account value is multiplied by (1 + 0.03/365), so at the end of the year the value is multiplied by about
... (1 +0.03/365)^365 ≈ 1.03045326
Something that had a cost of 1 at the beginning of the year will have a cost of 1.06 at the end of the year. A savings account value of 1 at the beginning of the year would purchase one whole item. At the end of the year, the value of the savings account will purchase ...
... 1.03045326 / 1.06 ≈ 0.9721 . . . items
That is, the loss of purchasing power is about ...
... 1 - 0.9721 = 2.79%
_____
If the account value is $200,000 at the beginning of the year in question, then the purchasing power <em>normalized to what it was at the beginning of the year</em> is now $194,425.14, about $5,574.85 less.
Answer:
__X__l__Y_
1 l 3
5 l 6
9 l 9
13 l 12
17 l 15
21 l 18
On the right side, the numbers get larger by adding three each time. On the left side, the numbers get larger by adding 4 each time. It would be the same for any other pair of numbers when you add 4 to the left, and 3 to the right. For instance, the next pair would be (25 , 21). 25 would be the X value, and 21 would be the Y value.
